Story is easy to understand but not too predictable. Enjoyable for any age people.
I have 3 boys ages 9, 11, 13. A lot of the shows they like I'm not quite as impressed with. We stumbled upon this show a couple weeks ago and we have watched episodes as time and homework allow. As boys I wasn't sure they would like it but they wanted to give it a shot and we are all so glad for it. Even as boys they were immediately drawn into the storyline. They didn't care that the main characters were girls. The characters were interesting and kept my boys guessing and hypothesizing about intentions. The young girl actors were surprisingly good. So much better than what we find on Disney or Nick nowadays. I really hope to see them in more projects...and in more seasons of "Just Add Magic". The value of friendship and family is strong in each episode. And each episode had a moral or lesson but they didn't hit you over the head with it. They were situations that my kids could generally relate to.
We were disappointed when we watched the season finale. Not because of the show, but because it was the finale. We really hope the show comes back for another season! We need more magic!

Just Add Magic is one of the best shows out there right now. It is entertaining, educational, and beautifully done. My brother, 15, and I, 21, enjoy watching this show together.
The characters feel real and are given a depth that is rare in children's shows. They make mistakes and disappoint each other, but they own up to it and take responsibility for their actions.
The plot is not dumbed down & has many twists & turns that make it unique. It's entertaining from start to finish.
Just Add Magic may be aimed at younger audiences, but it does not treat the characters as though they are too young. They are capable, strong & brilliant. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

If anyone would have told me I would get hooked on after a cheesy, American, "family" TV show, I would have been laughing my head off. Well, I started watching this one in order to proofread the Bulgarian subtitles on the 1-st episode. After I finished it, I simply forgot my original task and continued watching, until the whole 1st season was gone.
It's quite childish and cheesy, no doubt, but the girls are so cute and charming, one simply cannot resist them. Not to mention the flawless acting of all the members of the cast.
Great watch for any child, no matter the age. :)
