Reviews

funnyfrankie I am a 30 year old entrepreneur who was browsing though the rubbish that our youth waists there time with today. One of those shows was how to rock. I viewed a few episodes on my Christmas holiday and I have come up with a respectful conclusion. This show sucks. It features a thug based girl named Casey or something like that and her adventures of writing music that sounds like a demon shouting in your ear. It is utterly horrible. Also it's all about trying her trying to beat some lady named Molly in all of the stupid antics that they do. Also I have noticed that all of the characters are poorly scripted and everyone refers to them as "nerds". For once I agree. It is also very stereotypical towards blonde women, referring to them as "mentally slow" I think that blonde women are very smart indeed. In conclusion do not view this television program because it is a waist of time and cable bill. Also do not watch this show if you don't want to be referred as a " common dandy"
SanteeFats Wow got some serious haters on this series. I like it. It reminds me of my really old school days. Although I was on the outside of all the cliques. I admit some of the plot points you can see coming but I still think a lot of them are funny. I do support one point some one made. That is about the blonde's being idiots. How To Rock and A.N.T. Farm both feature really stupid blonde characters. A.N.T. Farm does have Olive Doyle as a blonde who is a smarty but that seems to primarily come from her eidetic memory, what would the character be with out the memory, just another dumb blonde? The band scenes are not very well done but are usually funny or cute. I like Stevie as she won't take guff from anyone. I also enjoy Kirk Fox as the teacher. I have seen him doing stand up and he is pretty good. I was sorry to see this series get axed after just one season.
silverdollar46 I stumbled across "How to Rock" while channel surfing and I have to say that I found it pretty decent. The whole high school musicians thing is overdone, but a decent cast can make it work. It's still a bit early to judge, but I think the cast has the potential to grow.The pilot has the protagonist, a girl named Kacey Simon (Cymphonique Miller) joining a band called "Gravity 4" (renamed "Gravity 5" after Kacey joins) after being exiled from the popular clique known as the "Perfs". As far as Kacey's character goes, I do like the fact that she didn't start out nice. Once she herself was being ostracized, I think she finally saw that her attitude wasn't good and decided to make a change. Next there's Molly Garfunkel(Samantha Boscarino), the new leader of the Perfs and the main antagonist. I think Samantha pulled off the villain role quite well and Molly is a character that people will love to hate.Zander Robbins(Max Schneider) is the new guy. A guitarist who is slightly vain. I like Zander's character, but I think there's some room for him to grow.Then there's Stevie Baskara (Lulu Antariksa), the snarky tomboy of the group. Stevie knows who she is and is proud of it. I like that about her character and I look forward to seeing where she goes.Kevin Reed (Christopher O'Neal) and Nelson Baxter (Noah Crawford) are the plucky comedy duo and my personal favorites. They are entertaining and play off of one another very well, but I hope they're given their own personalities instead of being carbon copies of each other.Lastly, there's Grace King (Halston Sage). She's Molly's right-hand Perf and the stereotypical "dumb blonde". She isn't as bad as Molly and seems to just go along with whatever she does. I don't know what exactly to think of Grace at this point.Even though the show does have its flaws, it's pretty decent overall. Future episodes will determine if it stays that way.
brent-8692 Ugh, I'm sorry, but this show made me want to break my television. I'm sitting here watching it with my sister for a second and may I just say: MY GOODNESS! Even she didn't like it. Basically the show is about a girl that sings (Doesn't sound new does it?) and the plot is very unforgettable. It's more like a Disney show more than a Nick show. It has the scene where she sings in front of all her friends and they are cheering. And of course, you get that one adult that dancing like a complete moron. I find the jokes very unfunny, and not very witty. They say the show is recorded in front of a live studio audience. They need to correct that and say the show was recorded in front of recorded laughs. I do not recommend this to neither children nor adults.
