Review of K.C. Undercover

K.C. Undercover is a refreshing, detective-based sitcom that introduces very different characters with many personalities. It's pretty funny and has diabolical schemes that hold one's attention; however, it can also be a bit boring at times. K.C.'s acting is very well done and her fighting is excellent. She is very energetic and realistic when she fights and her determination is very sharp. But, because her character outside of her spying is distant from people, the show can get a bit boring to watch. She doesn't participate in anything more than her spy work, which creates a monotony. The seriousness of K.C. is balanced well by her friend, Marissa, who does a good job of looking foolish. Every character acts very well, and there is no over the top screaming or obnoxiousness.

What stands out is K.C.'s strong fighting skills and power. Many shows that take 'females' in such roles don't do a good job, when the wimps can't even wield a sword with force, obviously because they had no encouragement or open participation in sports as children and because of shitty stereotypes, etc. Zendaya, however, has all the power, energy, and strength needed to look strong. Her moves are very precise. And instead of wearing irritating, little pink skirts everywhere, she actually looks like a normal person who has more brain resources for important, real things. Refreshing and interesting. The show could be funnier, however.
