Bucket and Skinner's Epic Adventures

I do not understand why this show has so many negative reviews on here. Sure, it may not be the most high brow show on TV, but it is a comedy intended for children and teens, and it is quite a good show for those audiences. I am a young adult and was a fan of Nickelodeon in the 90s when I was growing up, but they still know how to produce good shows.

I have only seen a few episodes of this show so far, but the episodes I've seen have been quite well-shot, written, and produced, and it is just as highly polished as any other teen sitcom on Nick at the moment. I am pretty partial to Bucket since he is quite a cool and adorable character who I consider to be fairly intelligent but yes, Skinner is definitely the show's least intelligent character, but that doesn't make him a bad one, contrary to what other reviewers say.

In addition to this show I also enjoy another one of Nick's shows, Big Time Rush, but this comedy stands out since it is about two guys just wanting to have fun, not about them trying to become famous like many Nick shows today. Bucket and Skinner just want to surf and enjoy themselves, so more so than other Nick shows, it reminds me of Nick's past, and in that respect I highly appreciate the effort this show makes to entertain its sometimes ungrateful viewers.

Last Fall,one of the stunt coordinators I work with(D'Janine King-Lasky) told me about Bucket & Skinner, but I thought it sounded like just another "typical" Nickelodeon show! Several of our adult crew members and some of our teen and young adult actors became fans of the Bucket & Skinner show right away and went to the filming of several episodes over the past few months. They all enjoyed the gymnastic stunts and kept saying how it reminded them of our crazy surf themed film with comical beach stunts,sight gags,acrobatics,etc. I became a little curious myself because I was a gymnast years ago prior to getting into the stunt business, then more recently, a stunt coach and prop master. The more our film crew talked about the show, the more I was learning(without them knowing it)I found out that my supervisor, D'Janine had met Tom (the executive producer) 27 years ago and it also turns out that Ashley Argota was a former gymnastics student of hers (she taught Ashley cartwheels years ago, ironically, Ashley did cartwheels at the very shoot that her former coach (D'Janine)attended, how's that for coincidences?) I have to admit,at first I became more curious about all the surf themed stunts, props and set lighting, than about the show's content. Finally,the many co-incidents and parallels(such as the exact same serving trays at Taco,Taco,Taco as we had in our film)compelled me to finally watch the crew's copy of Bucket & Skinner(4 episodes). I watched all 4 episodes back-to-back and I was actually quite impressed to say the least! I don't normally watch Nickelodeon shows, but this show has gotten my attention! I will be watching Bucket & Skinner from here on out and now, I also watch the show for content! I could possibly be one of your oldest fans! Good show!Keep up the gymnastics and such(tell your writers that THIS kinda stuff is always a hit, even with us older stunt guys!)

Who thought that this was a good idea? What were they thinking?! "Hey, let's get two idiots who look like they're trying to hide their constipation and we have no idea who they are, and let's get that pipsqueak from True Jackson VP, add a couple of jersey idiots and we'll be all set!" I bet that's what they thought. Because that's all this show is, those two guys being idiots and trying to do stunts and then get hurt and in real life would probably kill them (not a big loss though)but hey! It's a show, so everything is fine! And the acting... is beyond words, it's just in the top 5 of worst actors. The two boys as i said are just dumb, no real substance, the girl is just annoying, and really seems like Barack Obama reading off a teleprompter, and that jersey guy... just, i don't want to talk about it let's move on. There's no real background of ANYTHING anyways, so why should we care about what they do, just let me know when they die. This show makes me really hate Nick even more then i already have in past years for the following: Stopping Drake and Josh Ruining our favorite sponge i Carly Victorious Big Time Rush Fairly Odd parents And now THIS?! I must say, Nick is just down the toilet nowadays, and please Nick, if you're listening, STOP THIS SHOW!

I guess this show was alright, better than crap like Sam and Cat that's for sure, but it was pretty boring and forgettable. The only thing I can really remember about it as that Skinner had a lisp, so 'Bucket and Skinner's Not So Epic Adventures' I guess.

I too was able to see a taping and really enjoyed it. I saw a lot of comments on Nick that thought it would be like Drake and Josh, not so. Bucket and Skinner are best friends and very different from each other. Although Piper is feisty, she is nothing like the Megan character on Drake and Josh. It is its own type of show with unique characters and very funny!! The sets are awesome and there is a lot going on. The other characters in the show, like Aloe and others, help make it different. I found it very entertaining and a lot of fun for the whole family! I have enjoyed watching the first few episodes with the family and cannot wait to see more.
