Radio Free Roscoe

I agree with the other commenter. The show may air on a teen network but the writing and acting have some adult appeal. Given it has some influence from the people who brought us The Adventures of Pete and Pete this is not surprising and, while the two shows are quite different, the humor and quirkiness carries over well. Definite thumbs up for the show, the cast and the writing.

I think it is an unusual and refreshing that is essentially teen oriented yet maintains a level of content that should not be alarming to most parents who watch the show with their kids. The themes aren't too heavy and stereotypes in the characters are not so blatant as to be annoying. Much like other Canadian shows, the character development offers insights into the personalities quirks of each character.

I think Radio Free Roscoe is by far one of the most well-written and produced dramatic or otherwise Canadian television programs in years. You cannot help but fall in love with the show or its characters. Funny, charming, and rebellious, RFR is undoubtedly easy viewing.

The show has everything, and although the second season may have focused a bit too much on romance and less on what made the show so unbelievably popular among a demographic of fans in its first season, I still have yet to view a 'bad' episode.

RFR gives a universal message about individuality and following one's heart, despite adversity, and I would recommend it to people of all ages.

A couple months ago, my friend casually said "You know that Radio Free Roscoe show? It's actually not bad, I kind of like it." The commercials for it hadn't really done much for me, but I generally agree with her taste in such things so I checked it out. Yeah...I'm kind of hooked now. I seriously love Ray. He's a really great character, and the chemistry between him and Lily is great. Many people have criticized the believability of this show. Alright, obviously four teenagers wouldn't be able to hold an illegal radio station for very long without getting caught, but who wants to watch actual reality on television?? Honestly? Go watch the news if it's such a problem. It's a fun idea for a show, and I think RFR offers great and original characters and I really hope it stays on the air for a long time.

Radio Free Roscoe is great. As one of the few 16-year-old girls who is not amused by the media and society we live in, it's refreshing and encouraging to see a show that supports good morals & values. I'm hoping this show will go on for quite awhile.

And for all of those who don't know: It was Robbie's idea to start their own radio station. He met Travis when they both auditioned for a spot on Cougar Radio, and didn't get it. After finding out that Travis was able to do all the intricate details it takes to get on the radio, Robbie suckered Ray & Lily into joining them since they hung out in that comfy basement-type-place already. They were awful at first but got increasingly better, etc. Hope that helps someone. Great show!

I LOVE "radio free roscoe"...i have to admit that when I first saw commercials for it i thought it looked cheesy and unoriginal (think other teen show "degrassi") but then one day it was on so I decided to keep watching (since there was nothing better on anyayz....keep in mind this was at 12:05am). But now...i am sooooo HOOKED. This is nothing like Degrassi...or Clueless for that matter. It has interesting characters (played by good actors by the way) and very interesting story lines! Plus it's really funny. Sometimes I even laugh out loud. It is such a good show for teens (ages 12-16) although anyone could enjoy watching it. But seriously...when I watch the show (keep in mind that I am 16) I notice that they act, say and do things that me and my friends would do. They characters are not unrealistic or far-fetched. They are just like real teenagers. My favourite character is Ray a.k.a. Pronto...just because I think he's funny yet sweet (especially when talking about/to Lily). I think Kate Todd does a really good job playing Lily...she does it so naturally...and when she has a funny line, she says it rele well..i don't know what it is but she knows how to deliver a line (For example...her character "Lily" was trying to get people to sign her petition and she comes up to a group and shes like "hey do u like music?" and they just walk away and shes like "o...of course you don't..ur ROBOTS"...i dunno why but that was so funny!) But anyways...i think that "Radio Free Roscoe" is a cool show and that they should keep it around for a long time (I fear the day it goes off the air!).
