Good and Bad
26 February 2018
For a Disney show, the four leads here are above average (I'm thinking of the ill-acted "Andi Mack"). I think they have more natural talent than the usual Teen Nick or Disney show. The problem is, the writing is terrible, and borrows from particularly "iCarly" too often. It also seems to be down-played in its marketing, rather than the over-hyped "Andi Mack". One hopes that this series, with its two Asian American stars, outlasts the heavily-funded Asian American "Andi Mack." An update from its third season. The two lead actors, Madison Hu and Olivia Rodrigo are starting to smirk at their own jokes, yet I think it's Ms Rodrigo who is the better actress here. But it's the mean girl who is the show's breakout star. Devore Ledridge singlehandedly carries the series. Everything is perfect. Her timing, her voice, her body movements are exceptional. Why isn't she in her own series by now?
