Escola de Rock

Why must every Nickelodeon and Disney show be written at the level of a seven year-old when the target audience appears to be 'tweens'? Look at the feature films aimed at the same audience. Just look at the original motion picture and capture that essence. "Hunger Games" and "Divergent". If they were written at the level of "School of Rock" they would be laughed off the screen. Kids today are informed and exposed to much more than kids used to be. Even the animated films for younger audiences are written with more intelligence and understanding that is far beyond what these 'children's shows' put up on the smaller screen. So please, if anyone associated with these networks reads this, raise your standards of performing, writing and directing.

How to turn a Jack Black movie masterpiece into a hallucinating banality. The show is not to be taken seriously at all, too many subplots, no interesting characters, the story seems to be completely repetitive. It had great potential, but it was not exploited properly. In any case it's watchable, but not to be taken seriously.

Utter trash tv, bad writing, bad acting and it's a kids programme, why is it on an adult channel? Just clogging up the TV guide with trash.

It's a kids TV show? I think they missed the idea completely. Awful, acting is absolutely shocking as well.

okay, it's not the BEST thing ever, but this is for kids to get inspired and have fun, don't you guys remember how having fun is anymore, you just like to complain about everything? Yes, this show is nothing like the movie, and yes they are not actually playing rock, but it's entertaining, and, again the most important, the kids like it, grown ups(or whatever you are) aren't technically supposed to have an actual opinion about it, so relax and have fun. and don't stop your kid for watching it just because you don't like it, the show is about that too, don't put limits to your kids liking just because you don't. It's just about having fun.
