The Cleveland Show Review

Image result for the cleveland showCleveland Brown is a single father working a dead end job and only enjoys going to the local Quahog bar to get drunk with his friends. One day, Cleveland decides to return to his home town of Stoolbend, Virginia and reunite with his highschool sweetheart, Donna Tubman. Cleveland is introduced to his two new trouble maker step-children and his crazy new neighbors. I would give this show an 8/10 rating and would also say it is a better show than it’s mother series, Family Guy.

Liv and Maddie Review

Image result for liv and maddieLiv and Maddie was a Disney Channel comedy series which aired it’s 80 episodes from 2013-2017.  Liv and Maddie Rooney are two identical twins who have recently been reunited for the first time in four years. Maddie is the star basketball player for her school’s team, and Liv is a beauty queen who has just come home from Hollywood after starring in a hit TV series. The twins must adapt to the changes they’re undergoing and face challenges between themselves and others, like relationships and school related things. I honestly really like the idea of this show, but it was quite boring when it was airing. If it was a more mature show with the same plot, I think it could have been an amazing series. Besides that, I will give this a 7/10 rating.

Jessie Review

Image result for jessieJessie was a classic Disney Channel  comedy series which aired for 98 episodes from 2011-2015. Jessie is a small-town teen from Texas who ventures to New York in hopes of pursuing an acting career. Instead, she is quite literally immediately hired as the new nanny of 4 children who are very rich. As a show based around 5 teenagers with access to a lot of money, the possibilities for the writers are nearly endless. Along with the great plot, the show also possesses the iconic theme song, “Hey Jessie”. I rate this show 9/10, and I am happy I grew up with that era of tennager channels rather than the newer series.

Fresh Off the Boat Review

Image result for fresh off the boatFresh Off the Boat is an ABC comedy sitcom which aired it’s first episode in February of 2015. In this show, 11 year-old Eddie moves from Chinatown (D.C.) to downtown Orlando with his parents and two brothers. While Eddie’s dad, Louis, tries to follow the American dream and open a Western-themed restaurant, the rest of his family is left to adapt to their new surroundings. ABC is currently airing it’s fifth season, with new episodes every Friday. Personally, I believe the show started to venture downhill after the second season concluded. With such a basic premise for a show, it was destined to be doomed since the story was written. The actors/actresses would eventually be too old for their parts, the family would eventually become comfortable with their living situation and town, and the dad’s restaurant dream would eventually take off. Procrastinating these events just to make the show run longer would quickly get repetitive and drive viewers away.

The Punisher Review

Image result for The PunisherThe Punisher was a Netflix original series with it’s first episode airing back in November of 2017, and it’s final episode being released this past January. The series begins with Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) claiming revenge on the people responsible for the deaths of his wife and children. While doing so, Castle discovers a conspiracy that runs much deeper than the surface of New York’s crime scene. Taking on the alias “The Punisher”, he must dig deep into the conspiracy to discover the truth about injustices that affect more than just him and his family. This is one of my personal favorite series to rewatch, so I definetly recommend that you check it out as well.

The series revolves around Max and Phoebe Thunderman, a pair of twins who, along with their younger brother and sister and parents, must live a double life while hiding their identities as superheroes and live as normal citizens.

The show has a total of 98 episodes, and concluded on May 25, 2018. I give this show a 4/10.
