Le secret de Nick

A tween focused sit-com. Has its moments where you think the writers have just nailed it, then other moments where you know they are writing for an audience who doesn't know any better, and they treat the audience as imbeciles. For example, accessing other people's personal information from government agencies, by simply 'sending away' for the files. In real life, there would be almost no way to access that kind of information. There were times where it just was not based in reality. But it is unique compared to most tween shows, and season 2 especially shows how some relationships can be complicated. The acting does a decent job, but don't expect too much laughs. The comedy is laugh-track induced, very basic situational humor, most of what could have been written by anyone's dad. But sometimes, just sometimes, it hits the mark.

Look, it is what it is.... a tween show. I really enjoyed it though

I'm enjoying it so far I like the cast. I came across it on Netflix and decided to click play. Just give it a chance

This is basically a Nickelodeon show featuring ex-Nick stars in Nick situations and scripting. Sean Astin, Melissa Joan Hart, and Ted McGinley are wonderful, but the rest of the cast is borderline. Honestly, the idea of the show is wonderful and would've made a great 2-hour film or more 'adult' series - but in this setting, it's hard to take it serious with all of the teen jokes and Nick-typical acting overshadowing the main plots. One standout is the son, Kalama Epstein, whose acting is superior to the rest of the teens. I will keep watching to see if it grows further, but it needs to improve greatly to match up to the adult stars.

I love this show. The best thing about it is the premise. It's great fun watching Nick bond with her foster family while simultaneously robbing them. The actress who plays Nick is actually really good.

The show is sometimes cheesy, but as someone who grew up watching and enjoying sit-coms in the early 2000s cheesy doesn't bother me.

This show is fun. The lead actress is great. Definitely deserves a watch.
