    ...

    I'm currently rewatching this right now and it's so funny and the theme song is catchy that I don't skip the intro but there are so problems with this show.

    The lead character true seems to be the typical perfect character and she has a crush on the typical hot guy who happens to like her back for no reason all of a sudden which is seen in pretty much every show. True is not as perfect as everyone sets her out to be.

    Lulu is the worst character of the show. She is way to clingy when she got her boyfriend and gets jealous about everything. And watching it back she's a really annoying character.

    Ryan is a ok character but he's kinda like a dumber Freddie who always gets hurt. And hanging out with two woman.

    Amanda by far is the funniest and best character. It still brings back childhood memories.

    Awesome Show

    Unlike the typical Nickelodeoon shows True Jackson Vp by far has more variety and depth than those common icarly and the troop crap they call shows. The cast have great childish humor and moderate humor that can attract both audiences and portrays great acting skills from Keke Palmer. Though sometimes it seems over done the end result always impresses me and never leaves the viewer disappointed. So I commend the cast and a big applaud to Keke for keeping it real. For any of you fools out there who think it is a bad show because of the plot or humor check again and see how similar and foolish its plot is as to icarlys.It is also about time that they get a teen who hasn't been posted in the tabloids for underage drinking, breakups, nude images, or drugs of some sort.

    True Jackson VP is a great show for youth

    I'd first like to congratulate Keke Palmer on continued acting success. I have watched several episodes with my children and can rest assured that they are viewing quality television that isn't sexually suggestive or morally degrading. Our youth deserves quality television programming!!! Thanks to the other actors in this production for portraying clean teen images. And finally the comments that were previously submitted degrading the show are just plain false. This show is very interesting, the jokes are appropriate for the suggested audience and the show clearly has a future on Nick!!! Maybe those viewers are too mature to watch the show to enjoy it. Keep up the good work True Jackson cast!!

    Keke Palmer is a Star

    I watched this show and thought it was very good. The writing was so much better than the other kids shows that are on today. I honestly think that we have seen so much bad writing and acting in these kid shows that when a good show comes along we do not know the difference.

    It's the same in music we are so use to hearing electronic vocals that when we hear real singing we do not like the sound and choose the song with the weak phony vocals because it's what we are use to hearing. When Brittany Spears came out I loved her music, but I was 7 years old, now that I am older no way I choose Brittany over Paramore. I still love Brittany, but real singing beats that cheesy stuff any day.

    Keke Palmer is so graceful and such a strong actress that it's hard not to give this show a chance. There is no other kid actor/actress on kids TV that brings the resume and the natural talent that she has, True Jackson V.P. is a great show because of Keke, the other actors are not known, once people see them a bit more then judge, but to say the writing was bad just from the pilot, what studio would pay for a bad pilot?? They send these shows out to be tested, it obviously tested high with a lot of kids or they would not have picked this show up.

    Millions of people tuned in to see this show that's no accident, Keke Palmer it's her turn now. Why can't real talent have a chance for a change? I remember the days of Jett Jacksons, All That(Keenan and Kel) Even Stevens, all good actors, to me Keke's acting is as real as those actors and that is why people should watch True Jackson V.P., to see the star of the show shine, not take cheap shots at the supporting unknown cast, especially after just one episode.

    Good memories from Nick At Night

    I used to watch this at night on Nickelodeon in Brazil, when I watch I just can feel at home and as a kid again, getting comfortable in bed after a long day. It used to be aired with Kennan & Kel. When I was a kid these shows were cancelled already. So I could watch some old shows. True Jackson is a cool sitcom, not the best from Nicki but very stable and cool to watch and with no Nickelodeon drama around. It's like a safe show to watch.

    Unfortunately it's like I'm the only one who remembers and still cares about this show. But anyways if you're thinking about to watch I really recommend it. Just don't expect crazy stuff like Icarly, more like a grown up sitcom.

      True Jackson's catchphrase, "You said what now?!" comes from when Keke Palmer was told the news of her casting. She couldn't believe it, and told the producers, "You said what now?!" The producers loved it so much, they made it her character's catchphrase.
