This is a great Disney teenage series for all viewers to watch and enjoy. The crew did a splendid job in creating this Disney teenage series. There were some parts throughout this entire Disney teenage series that could have been a lot better and stronger. The storyline throughout this entire Disney teenage series was brilliant and strong and had enough direction. The cast selection throughout this entire Disney teenage series was fine. They fully committed to the storyline and to their respective characters. The chemistry that was displayed throughout this entire Disney teenage series between the cast members was strong enough.
Although it is not as good as the og disney channel shows, I do actually like this show. I feel as though this show is underrated and I would recommend watching it.
I'm tempted to give this a 10 just to offset all the people giving it a 1.
I mean... a 1? Sorry. A 1 is not a rational reaction. That's saying this is the WORST thing you've ever seen. That's crazy. That's deep emotional trigger stuff.
This is an upbeat, nice show about friends loving each other, solving various friend crises with honesty and compassion, and having silly adventures together. The over the top gag writing is clever and amusing. It certainly isn't bad, and CERTAINLY no worse than I've seen elsewhere. All in all, this show is well meaning and fun.
Now.., WHY does that upset some people so much? Touched a nerve, did it? I think it did!
I know several teen girls who really enjoy Best Friends Whenever, but if they read the reviews here might double think that. What an ugly thing to do. Because, heavens, we can't have young women absorbing positive messages about friendship. Girls are supposed to hate each other! Don't you know that? I think some of that negative advertising which saturates our culture, that horrid stuff which strives to make girls despise themselves and mistrust others, to not reach out to form nourishing bonds with others, has poisoned too many people here.
If you're knee jerking into hating this sweet and friendly program, then maybe you need to pause long enough to examine WHY you're reacting that way!
Seriously! What is WRONG with you??
So, enjoy this fun little show. Ignore the trolls. Love your friends.

Not realistic? NOT REALISTIC? It's a show about time travel for godness sake. Who said anything about realism?
The girls can time travel and a guy has a lab. And? There were time travel shows in the past and nobody cared. Dexter from Dexter's Lab has a huge lab that clearly couldn't fit in his house. Nobody cared. So when someone else can time travel and when someone else has a lab, you guys are quick to hate on it, not realizing you grew up watching the same things but loving it.
It seems like you guys are just looking for reasons to hate on Disney at this point. This is television. This isn't reality, it's TELEVISION. It's not supposed to be realistic. If you want realistic stuff, close the TV and go outside, or go to school, or do your homework or whatever. That'll be realistic.

Best Friends Whenever is a Disney Channel show about two best friends who get the ability to time travel. The way their abilities work is when they touch each other and think of a time they "jump" into their bodies from that time(unless they travel outside of their lifetime). They don't use this power to become superheroes but instead just mess around with it. They used this power to order a pizza 45 minutes earlier so they don't have to wait. They go back in time a few years to eat a burrito that was banned when they were seventh schoolers. They time travel to get back at a classmate that's insulting them. This form of time travel is refreshing because it allows for a very character focused show. The main characters have been friends since kindergarten and think they know everything about each other, and their time traveling brings forth things they didn't. It's not a perfect show, it ends up sharing a lot of problems many other disney channel shows have regarding cliches and cheesy dialogue. But despite that it's still a pretty unique show that is different from a lot of other time travel shows in a good way, and I hope we get more time travel shows like this one.
