Violetta

When Violetta first came out in the Netherlands, Disney already spammed their channels full of advertisements for the show. And I can conclude that this show is just another marketing series to rip off little girls in buying merchandise. The people who wrote the storyline didn't have any inspiration. It's just another "Girl moves to a new school and find two boyfriends" cliché. But that is not the worst part. I've watched many TV shows and have seen a lot of horrible dialog, but this is a new depth. The characters are just acting childish. From the arrogant She-thinks-she-is-the-best-person-in-the-world-but-has-no-talent- type-girl to the Perfect-talented-honest-wants-everybody-happy-girl. For the main character Violetta, she is just a girl who wants to famous. She listens always to her heart and only wants to do good things. She is to say "The perfect girl." And in my opinion "The perfect girl" is something you want to avoid in anything. Disney wants girls to say: I want to be like her. However she also lies to her dad and justifies that it is OK to lie to your parents when YOU think you're doing something that is the best for you. This may be the case in this show but in real life most parents DO know what's best for their child. Since Violetta is made for little girls, the writers decided to let the boys act like ten year old boys. The whole progression of the overall story is really slow so Disney can just keep airing this trash instead on spending money on a real show, and whenever the story progresses eventually you will see the same over and over since all parts in the story are exactly the same. And although I shouldn't actually talk about the other reviews, everyone who give this series a 10 is behaving like a Justin Bieber fan girl. They are so brainwashed by Disney channel that they don't see that this program is trash. Just like the Beliebers are so brainwashed that they can't see how worthless that guy is. Almost all Disney Channel programs are crap (Fair to say about 99%) but this show is the the deepest you can get. That's why I am giving it 1 star.

Also, sorry for my broken English. It's not my native language.

Okay, just for fun I clicked too see how many stars this series had and discovered it only had 5.2. Then I read some of the rewiews and honestly it's like people really don't know what they are talking about. In my opinion this series is for 5-12 year olds maybe 13. When this series came out and was popular, i was a big fan and yes I can now look back at it and say that some of the things was a little unreal and some people will find it cringe. But give me one Disney film of Disney series that doesn't have something unreal in it. Almost every Disney series has that, because it's mostly made for kids. Things like that makes it more interesting for them. When I say unreal I don't mean that there are unicorns, more like real life situations that can happend but usually don't. They Take a real life situations and pimp it up a little, too make it more interesting, especially for the kids. This is a good series. Yes the dubbing in English is terrible. When I saw violetta I watched it in polish where it actually was pretty good. In English its terrible, also the fact that they make other people sing the song in English is also terrible, leave at least some of the real content. I just wanted to say that this series is something I really can recommend to people between 5 and 12. Yes older people can watch it too, I just think that people In the age of 5-12 years old will enjoyed more. Looking back at it Im so happy I watched it, it really is good and I hope you won't judge this series based of the bad reviews it has, its really not bad at all. I loved it. Today I'm 15 years old and I don't think I would have loved this series as much if I haven't watch it when I was 10-12 years old. So if you beetween 5-12 WATCH IT!!!

I love this series so much! The characters, the songs, it's so nostalgic!

People are really overanalyzing this show and seem to forget it was made for KIDS. I grew up with it and absolutely adored it. I did not notice anything wrong, I just enjoyed the beautiful songs and cheesy storylines. Rewatching it now, as I tend to do sometimes, of course I see how some parts weren't the best but for my childhood self this show was a big part of my life and I loved it.

I'm twenty-one, currently I only watched the first season (dubbed into Italian) and I liked it. Martina Stoessel has a beautiful voice, four/five songs are stunning and there are touching moments, or that make the heart beat. Follow the story of this girl who tries to fulfill her dreams in secret is exciting, and, when she's likely to be discovered, you hold your breath. The last seven or five episodes, when the whole truth comes out, are done well. But, as far as such a story is engaging, there are some flaws. The first and foremost is that eighty episodes are too many, really too many. Several dialogues are recycled endlessly ("you have to tell the truth," "no, I can't, he wouldn't understand, but sooner or later I will"), the two/three times the truth comes out, a word game is enough to forget everything, and the fourth time that Violetta's father is likely to discover her, the only thing you can do is huff. The fight between the two boys for Violetta is exhausting for nerves because she's terribly indecisive and, even when she seems to have chosen one, she continues to upset the other, only to reject him again. Some of the characters are exaggerated and created to be ridiculous, not at all credible. Perhaps all this, however, isn't annoying for the younger, the target to which the series aims (I think up to thirteen years), but to me, often, yes. So, to conclude: an enjoyable series, with nice music, nice story and nice female lead, but that can be improved a lot. Filing defects, removing all unnecessary events and rehashing something, in thirty-five episodes it could still have been a beautiful and compelling series. More quality at the expense of quantity, please. Now I look forward to the second season on free television.
