Zoey 101 (2005–2008)
6/10
Quite entertaining but why?

Zoey is a very popular girl at PCA and everything seems to be happening to her but she always can find the right thing to do to solve every problem. She is blond, she is Britney Spears' little sister and she is Chase Matthews' crush since the first season. Many reviews state that because of these reasons, this show is very bad.

It is not though! It is indeed not an accurate portrayal of boarding schools but it is just a TV series, not a documentary. Funny and entertaining it teaches young children to behave in the right way, to never lie and it reflects the importance of having good friends by your side.I do not see the difference between this series and Hannah Montana, Zack and Cody and other Disney Channel classics.

If we then talk about the cinematography then I would like to point out that it is quite bad, the acting is sometimes not realistic enough and at times the editing reveals to be too dull. I would give it a 6 mostly because of Jamie Lynn Spears' acting at times and because she should be aware at least by season 2 that Chase is in love with her! Girls are not that stupid!

However, I am 21 and enjoy watching some episodes after a rough day on dissertations and seminars as it is indeed quite funny and something positively different from the shows that are on today.
