Project Mc²

I watched the first season with my daughter. We were both enchanted from the beginning. I should mention that she's addicted to Disney shows but finds the lack of truly smart characters a problem. In this series, the acting, writing, science and directing are more than merely competent. The girls are likable, cool, and smart. This is not your typical geek-turned-savior story. There are also no damsels in distress or princesses waiting to be granted life by an unwitting prince. The plots are aimed a bit above the usual tween show, but the science is not so over-the-top that younger girls will feel perplexed. In short, science is good, smart is cool, and Danica McKellar is a genius for bringing this to our children. Please release more episodes of this show...fast!

My 9 year old in in love with science due to this show. She is having a blast with the online clues and experiments.

We need more shows like this. Smart, respectful young women who can do anything. Teaching our girls that "Smart is the new cool," is the best message that we can offer.

Having each girl specialize in an area and for them to have to work together to be successful is amazing. Also having supportive and smart parents is something that most shows do not have.

Please keep the series going. Please let me know what I can do to make sure that my daughter can have more shows to watch.

The first couple episodes are pretty bad, but the later seasons are much better. It reminds me a little bit of Gem from the 80's. Fun show for girls.

We wanted to like this show. The premise sounds wonderful. Who wouldn't want a show about girls using STEM subject to solve crime? AND Danica McKeller is in it?! Sounds fabulous! So my daughter and I gave it a try.

Unfortunately the show fails to deliver. The girls are astonishingly stupid. The scene that sticks out the most to me is how the social-media guru left location services on when she posted online about being with a prince they were protecting. Rather than this being a learning experience, it was hand-waved with an "oh no, his fangirls found us." At best, they're caricatures of smart girls, and that's not a good thing since it says smart girls are really stupid. My 6-year-old pointed that out.

Danica isn't truly in the show. Her part is basically phoned in. She's only shown via video, and the quality is such that she can record her lines anywhere there's a black backdrop. I suspect she really does that.

So we are on the hunt again for smart girls into STEM subjects.

The show was okay. I have seen a lot worse bur also a lot better. But it was definitely intertaining and i think if you are a smaller kid its a good show to watch. Like i said its very very cheesy but i watched it wirh my fruends and we enjoyed it but looking back we all say that it was cheesy but it can make us laugh. Its very distracting if you have a bad day so i do recommend it. Mostly to very you g children. I personally enjoyed trying some of the things they did. I was expecting it to be better but in the end it could have been a lit worse. The story line could have been better to. But i can not stay it was a horrible show. I would probably watch it again if i need a distraction. Again you cant hate it or live it.
