Creative Premise, But an Overall Mess
6 November 2014
Okay, so this show had a creative premise going for it. Sure, the formula has been done in shows like Mork & Mindy, ALF, and My Favorite Martian, but this was during a time when all of the Nick sitcoms were literally about some kid becoming famous or training to become famous (iCarly - Girl that's famous on the Web; Victorious - Girl that's training to become famous), so this was a breath of fresh air for Nick. But they had to ruin it with one thing: FRED as the title character. Yeah, Lucas (or Fred) figured he raped our ears enough, so he moved on to other acting jobs. But man, is he annoying in this one! His annoying voice is what killed it for me. And now, since it's canceled, Lucas is a nobody again.

Overall, this show is bad, but it's not as bad as AwesomenessTV or Henry Danger. It at least tries to make jokes, but the jokes come off as bad, like butt humor. Hey! At least they're trying. At least they're going for a kind of humor! Even if it is disgusting humor like butt jokes.
