    decent i suppose...

    as like other Disney channel shows they're cheesy, pointless and so not funny with a stupid laughter track on every sentence...

    Well yes this is like this but i actually think its OK.

    demi lovato over acts quite a lot but you can put up with it after a while.

    i love the little girl who sometimes appears in it. She's the best and is really funny.

    i think its kinda cheesy but a really good storyline. the script is well thought out and funny.

    i also love the brightly colored decorated set and props.

    overall a 7/10.. its worth watching and after a while you do get attached to the show. not the best show but OK .. decent like the title lol

    Better than Hannah Montana

    The pilot was horrible. Period.

    However, Disney has a problem with that...maybe that's why they show 2 episodes at once. So I hung in there for the next episode.

    It was funny. And unpredictable- I honestly did not expect the Sterling Knight to be the type of character he was, nor did I expect the show to end like it did. Usually Disney gets all their conflicts resolved by the end of the show, but obviously SWAC is going to be different.

    And honestly, it was a thousand times better than the most recent season of Hannah Montana.

    Here's hoping for more improvement from Sonny With a Chance!

    One of the shows I can watch..

    Not everything is funny in it, especially when they play the laughter.

    But I laugh here and there, and when it has a good plot, I get excited

    to know what's going to happen next. It's actually a really decent show.

    Demi Lovato is a good actor, but can over-do it sometimes. It is kind

    of cheesy, but it's a good show. One of the best shows on Disney Channel.

    At best, 7/10.. It's worth watching and you get attached. I really like it. Chad and Sonny seem cute together, but I just find the character Zora to be really annoying.

    amazing show

    i think that this show is one of the best I've seen on Disney in a long time. tiffany or tawni is an amazing character; i love how her and sonny pretend to be enemies but in reality they have become the best of friends, its also thrilling and suspenseful to see what they say next shes a very complicated character but its fun to try and catch up to her. demi is very radiant and exciting in this show, some people say that she could do much much better but i say that she makes her character become herself and not a lot of actors and actresses her age can do that; its a pretty awesome gift to have if you ask me. nicos kind of the kid who gets all the girls in his dreams haha but in reality he tries to get as many as he can but many times does not succeed. gradys kind of refreshing he lightens up the scenes with his personality hes one of those chubby kids that always seems to put a smile on your face. sterling knight aka chad Dylan cooper is my personal favorite and i bet a lot of young teens could relate to him. he's a pretty sensitive guy but since he doesn't want anyone to know the soft side of him he acts like a jerk. he tries to deny that he has feelings for sonny but everyone who watches the show can tell he does. its amazing and a ton of fun to watch this show and watch these young people grow. the only thing that this show could use more of is new episodes maybe a new character or co-star and they need to get chad and sonny together all ready. who ever says this show needs more than it already has obviously has no idea what a good show is about. this is the perfect series for any age. the stiffness of the acting just adds to the excitement. everyone from sonny with a chance, keep on rocking that stage don't let any review tear your show apart; i for one have faith in you they're just bitter :)

    Sonny with a Chance, Not So Bad

    Here are my thoughts after seeing 'Sonny with a Chance':

    Firstly, I think having a happy and sunny character is a relief after all the cliché 'emo' and 'punk rock' characters. The acting is not that bad. It could use some work, but I've seen much worse. The jokes don't seem that forced. Some of them are unfunny, but I did find my self laughing at some of the jokes in the second episode. The show in itself is a cute idea. It reminds me of the Amanda Show. The characters have potential. I thought they were cute and somewhat original. I'm not saying the show is perfect, but it isn't as bad as people say it is. I give it a 7.
