Instead of listening to the fans they really want were like yeah let's make some bizarre Halloween movie with a lame plot and bunch of Michael Jackson references and music throughout. I honestly don't know what happened in this movie... I don't understand.
This show didn't come out until I was out of high school and that's when I started watching it, and it instantly brought out my inner 13 y/o. I fell in love with the show from the first episode; it's very good and well done. There is a lot difficult topics that this show covers in a good way so that kids can understand.
When I started watching this show, I realized this was the very first time in my life where I felt racially and ethnically represented in any media. All of a sudden, I could relate to a main character like I never have before. And I didn't realize how much I needed that until I started watching this. Growing up in America, as someone who is part white and Chinese and experienced both cultures meshed together, sometimes, I felt like an outsider. There wasn't other people like me that I knew or saw in media. But then Andi Mack comes along, and I don't know how to describe it, but it felt good to be able to see myself in a character.
Also there was another character that hit home for me. He experiences anxiety and they portray it really well; what it is like to feel that. In middle school I didn't know that's what I was going through or that's what it was called.
The main theme of this show is growth and change. That's ok to go out of your comfort zone and that change can be good, even though that it's hard. When I was 13, I didn't know that and that's something I needed to start learning. That's good lesson to start learning young, and this show does a good job of showing that.
The one thing I didn't like as much about the show, is that they seemed to focus a little too much on these middle schoolers dating. Maybe things have changed in the last few years since I was in middle school, but I don't remember that really being the focus of most kids at that age. Some kids were dating but it seemed most kids had more of a focus on just having fun and being with friends.
