Coop & Cami

I ABSOLUTELY love this show!! It is my favorite Disney channel show ever!! Love this cast as well!!

For the most part, this show seems to get the thumbs down on IMBD. I don't get it. My kids love it, (my oldest boy is 12yo and absolutely in love with Ruby Rose Turner) and truth be told, I enjoy watching it with them each week. It's fluff, sure, but so is 90% of what's on tv. The thing is, it doesn't pretend to be anything else so why such harsh reviews? Here's hoping there's a third season!

When I was watching Coop & Cami, it reminds me of an I-Carly and Bizaardvark knock off, but if you add the brother and sister duo relationship of Donny and Marie Osmond, and they live in the 21st century of blogging and streaming videos. They seem they're always together in every video that they do. Even their house also reminds of The Brady Bunch and See Dad Run because its very ugly looking, and not much too it. The kitchen scene set up in their house on Coop & Cami reminds of the kitchen from "See Dad Run." with Scott Baio. I kind of like Charolette because she's retable and reminds me of myself watching this, Susan Dey's character (Laurie Partridge) and looks like a young Anna Paquin. However, the mom, Jenna, reminds me of a unhealthier of older Lucy (Judy Greer) from "13 Going On 30" (2004). While the little brother, Ollie, kind of looks like Hoody Doody dummy doll and he exactly like a little kid version of Jim Parson's character, Sheldon, from The Big Bang Theory.

When I watched Coop and Cali I first thought this show was created for preschool toddlers. I cannot stand Ollie and Fred. The most relatable character is Charlotte and by far the best looking cast member. When it comes to C and C, I compare the awkward and dumb Asian American friend of the family Fred to Thomas Kuk's character on Game Shakers named Hudson. Why does every one of these shows on kids tv cast someone to play a pathetic, clumsy, and stupid supporting character who the audience feels sorry for? Maybe they are all trying too hard to teach kids a lesson that it's ok to be unpopular, mocked, and pitied by their peers. I hope Olivia ditches this garbage and signs on for something more befitting her talents, more mature.

After watching the first episode on Disney (and the second one on Disney's YouTube channel), I have to say this was actually a decent show to watch. Sure, there were many shows that it resembles, but there's a big difference. The previous two shows iCarly and Bizaardvark have 2 girls (who are friends) hosting their web shows. In this show, it's a boy and a girl who are siblings.They ask their fans (known as wratherheads) to cast their opinions to what situation the Wrathers face. Also, I must say I like the cast. Dakota Lotus (Coop) and Ruby Rose Turner (Cami) have a good brother and sister dynamic. Albert Tsai plays Coop's friend Fred is hilarious. Tsai is no stranger to sitcoms. He starred on two former ABC sitcoms: Dr. Ken and Trophy Wife. The only cast member that drew me in to this show was Just Add Magic's Olivia Sanabia. She plays the older sister Charlotte, who is a very relatable and a likeable character. This is a very different role for Sanabia, since Just Add Magic has more drama. I can't wait to see more episodes.
