No Ritmo

I think this show is completely awful and annoying. The acting and story lines are bad. I think the two main characters personalities are very similar and they do not act like individuals. They both think they are perfect and vain, which I guess it's good in someway to teach self confidence however it does get annoying after a while. Cici and Rocky wear a lot of makeup on the show, even my 12 year old sister pointed out how oddly dressed they were. However that is just a minor thing. Cici and Rocky are background dancers on a popular dance show, but they are not the best dancers. If they are, they do not really show their talent on the show. Compared to previous shows like Hannah Montana and the Suitelife which I found enjoyable and funny, Shake it up is not. The comedy is my main deciding factor on whether I would enjoy a Disney show, since Shake it up has none, I wouldn't watch it.

When I 1st saw the early promos for this show, I didn't think it would be stupid, but when I found out that Roshon Fegan would be in it, that was the main reason I decided to check it out, and I found it pretty good, but it's true that all the jokes have been used before in other Disney shows, and that it's rather predictable, but it's alright.The acting isn't bad or amateur, but it can be better and more professional, and for those of you who think Davis Cleveland(Flynn) is a bad actor, it's only because he's so young that his acting is not believable, but overall the acting is decent, but nowhere near as good as most other Disney Channel shows. As for the dancing, it's not a crowd-pleaser because Bella Thorne and Zendaya Coleman are alright, but not that great of dancers(though I hope they improve by the 2nd or even the possible 3rd season), and the only real dance pro is Roshon Fegan and anyone who's seen the Camp Rock Movies would know that, and It kinda makes it worse knowing that Rosero McCoy, who choreographed Camp Rock 2, is the choreographer of this show, but it's not so bad. But here's something I find very irritating and shocking: Disney got Bella and Zendaya to sing a song called "Watch Me" which annoyed me so much because even though Zendaya is credited as a singer, she and Bella are terrible at it, and they even filmed a music video which wasn't bad but they can't sing. Speaking of music, I think I should add that I only like 4 songs from this show, my favorite being Dance For Life by Adam Hicks featuring Drew Seeley. The music in this show also needs some serious improvements. The main reason I'm so mad about this is because I would've hoped that the 2 stars of the show wouldn't be singers, but now that I see them singing, I have a bad feeling that they will turn Rocky and Cece into singers on the show which I will dread for life. Another thing I will definitely agree with is that Ty and Deuce don't add much to the story lines for the show because all Ty does is dance on the street, try to woo girls, and hang out with Flynn while Deuce just cracks jokes and seems like a bad boy but turns out to be cool. They were simply developed to complete the ensemble. All in All, Shake it Up is a good show, but it can be better, so I will give it a 7.5/10

This show is the worst show I have seen come out of Disney, wait, I have a correction, it is tied with A.N.T Farm.

I have only seen a couple episodes while babysitting a 6-year-old, and to put it frankly, I cannot see how she finds it a good show. I would rather her out Hannah Montana on than this thing they call a TV show,

So this show stars two 13 year girls. (Don't ask me their names because I couldn't tell you.) They are dancers on a show called Shake it Up Chicago. But the thing is, it is not really dancing. It is shaking their 13-year-old booties on a stage in clothes acceptable for...... a nothing really. When they are not on this show with no purpose, they are out trying to achieve their current egotistical goals that involves benefit for them. Meanwhile, there is a 6 year-old boy who never seems to be under the watchful eye of anyone. In reality, this show is meant to make a 6-year-old to shut up for 30 minutes.

I was reading the reviews and most of them Are one thousand percent right. I watched it again on Disney Plus and my god the characters are so unlikeable.

Cece : The lead character of the show. She's the dumb one who seems like her and Rocky are always trying to run up each other. She always disrespects her mom and never hangs out with her brother. Cece and Rocky both have the man character energy of being a jerk to everyone.

Rocky : Rocky's voice was annoying in the beginning but she's the smart one. She only ever gets in trouble when Cece gets her in trouble. She's not that bad of a character.

Flynn- my god he is a annoying character. He is always pushing people around and serves no purpose in the show. He's usually in the sub-plot.

Ty- Ty is my 2nd least favorite character. He and deuce are supposed to be friends but they are always so mean to each other. He tries way to hard to be cool that is so cringey.

Deuce- he's my favorite character and the least problematic one but he's the butt monkey of the show.

Gunther & Tinka - Sometimes they are funny and other times they are annoying. They are always absent in the show. For some reason Gunther left the show after season 2 and tinka became Frenemies with everyone in season 3. It's obvious they didn't know what to do with her as she was absent in most of the episodes.

Dina - Dina is the worst character in the show. Her voice is so annoyIng and she treats deuce so bad. She's always threatening him and putting him down.

Overall most of the cast barley appear and annoying.

So, I started watching this last summer since I was bored and there was nothing else to watch. I barely remember the first episodes in details but they were fine. I usually watch it when I eat lunch since I like watching something while eating. lol

It's an OK show and I like the dancing and I think that the intro is well-done (weird to say). However, it's not like the older Disney shows. I remember watching Hannah Montana or Wizards of Waverly Place. They were cheesy and silly too and not the most meaningful thing to watch but there were some life lessons in them and there was some magic in them, they were waking some feelings in me and I couldn't wait to watch the next episode or if more episodes were already out, I watched like 3 or 4 at once. They were just fun shows which had something to grab your attention.

But Shake It Up couldn't do the same. I don't mind the bad acting since I don't expect brilliant acting in such shows. The dancing is cool and the dance scenes are well-done. I had stopped watching it for a while since I couldn't really find the episodes and it just didn't made me like it like it was with the old Disney shows. There are kids who like it, of course. But I found it kinda dumb like most people here. I'm fine with the repeatable topic for kids trying to succeed in show business since many children would love to and there's nothing bad in it. But it doesn't really show children dealing with the everyday problems like school, parents and doesn't really teach you anything at the end. Also, they dress like adults at times. Many teens do this nowadays though. And the characters are like my age. I do dress more like a woman sometimes but just on holidays or something. Maybe it's just that kids today are different than us. Even in real life kids are more stuck up and sassy than people my age and a bit older used to be as children so shows change too.
