American Dragon: Jake Long

This is by far the best show on Disney Channel. It has a good mix of fantasy,romance and action. It's great if you're into dragons. T The story is about a kid,at the age of 13,named Jake Long. He's about your average New York kid,loves to skateboard,play games,and has two friends named Trixie and Spud. He has one secret however... He's the American Dragon. He is the first recorded dragon ever born in America. That's why they call him the American Dragon. His grandfather,Lao Shi,is also his teacher. He teaches Jake all the basics of becoming a dragon.Lao Shi is also known as Grampa,he's the Chinese Dragon. Or that's what they call him. Anyway,the show is overall good,it has some stuff that is similar to another animation called Danny Phantom,but that doesn't mean it's bad. It's a very good and interesting show. I rate it a 9/10. It's not Anime. SO many of you that think it's anime,it isn't.

This is the best show ever. I love it so much. I really don't like SS1 of the film because of the way the characters were drawn. It's just so childish and the story is so childish, too. But when I saw SS2 of the film, I watch it everyday, I can't stop watching, I fell in love with AmDrag since then. It's not just like other cartoons. It has action, romantic love, family, friends, things around us. The show taught us a lot of things, and really is a meaning show. Most of SS2 eps make me cry when I see the love between Jake - Lao Shi (Grandson - grandfather), Jake - Haley (siblings), Jake - his father, Jake - Rose (love) and Jake - Trix, Spud (friends). I save watched a lot of cartoons series, but only this show makes me cry, I am really attracted, the film makes me feel, think. This's not a show for kids only, the story of the film attracts adults. It's the only cartoon series has many fans who are more than 50. But Disney canceled the film, Disney ruined themself by canceling the best film ever. I love them more than anything else, I don't know if I can do something to bring it back, but if I know. I will do anything to save it. Let's show Disney that's they're all wrong to cancel a show like this.

I really like American Dragon but what do I know, I'm 34? My neighbor (an 11 year old boy) loves it! He's a huge Harry Potter fan and digs martial arts and thinks American Dragon is "really cool". This cartoon combines Karate Kid and Harry Potter and is very clever, almost too clever I think at times for kids but again, I had trouble following Yuggio and I'm 34. American Dragon is Asian influenced but not Annimae, thank god, it still has that Disney coated gloss. Some of the jokes are hilarious but may go over the kids heads but I love cartoons with adult humor. There is a lot going on in this cartoon with a WB teenage drama mixed with magical creatures and superhero - Jake saves the day endings. Kids have a short attention span and there is enough here to keep their minds excited for the half an hour. Great fun!

In answer to the other users reply it's spelled ANIME ANIME!!!! AND I LOVE ANIME. American DRAGON is a perfect example of a good American anime type cartoon. Some of the jokes are hilarious like when the tooth fairy is singing find a happy place and the hole idea of Fu dog's "biscut" gambling. The plot is good to, the only thing that bothers me is Jake's voice over and his rap talk bugs me. And its better animated than most Disney channel cartoons the background is more painted looking to give it a sort of old Disney movie/ anime feel to it. And the lines are curved and people don't have pointy finger which i hate how most American cartoons have.

Well... i see some people don't like this show - But I do! I've noticed the animation has changed over the years. This is a good teenage show about a hero (teenager who turns into a dragon). I find it entertaining... The show has its giggles and laughs and it can teach some lessons about life. For example, growing up and competitions. I like this show :). I was reading some of the other comments here, like the one on the actual webpage for this title. I agree with the reference to the older shows, and the television is coming out with shows that (for lack of better terms) suck. But, this particular show, I like.

Go Disney!. I hope it stays on family channel and the Disney channel.
