CourtneyRichardson24 The Amanda Show stars Amanda Bynes and other known Nickelodeon stars from the 90s and 00s. The Amanda Show is a spin off show from All That and is just a Saturday Night Live for kids. I loved this show so much because it was so funny and yeah, as a 16 year old, it still is. I am devastated that they do not play these shows on Nickelodeon AU anymore and it disappoints me even more that they do not make shows like these and instead they make absolute slop like: Big Time Rush, House of Anubis, Back at the Barnyard etc. This is the same as Disney AU, they have terrible shows: Kick Buttowski, Fish Hooks, Pair of Kings etc. Even when they do put the decent shows on: That's So Raven, Suite Life of Zack and Cody (NOT SUITE LIFE ON DECK), Lizzie McGuire, they are all on at midnight. But the old Nickelodeon and Disney will always remain in my childhood!10/10
madcow1970 Good grief! I can't believe all the negativity here. This show is hilarious! I am 34 years old and my husband is even older than me. We used to sit and watch it with our kids and we would all laugh so hard. We even recorded some episodes and watched them over and over. Anyone who says Amanda has no talent doesn't know what talent is. She is a gifted actress and comedian. Watching her show reminded me of watching the old Carol Burnett show when I was younger. Sure, some of the skits are silly no-brainers, but everything doesn't have to be deep. The Carol Burnett skits were the same way. Sometimes you just have to be silly! It is a silly show but it is fun and my whole family enjoyed it. We own the movie "What a Girl Wants" which we've watched many times. It is a better example of how funny Amanda is and what a great actress she is. She is a beautiful young lady with a great future ahead of her. The first time I actually saw her was on the movie "Big Fat Liar" and I remember telling my husband, that girl is going to go places. I hadn't seen the Amanda show at that time but we started watching it and loved it. If you haven't seen it, don't listen to these people, give it chance for yourself. MAAA HAAAAA
Yerkman I really don't have much to say on this show, except for bad things. Im a veteran of Nickelodeon (SInce I was four maybe) and I have seen everything from Rugrats to SPongebob. This is definetly not one of Nickelodeons best shows. I remember Amanda Bynes from the original All That(the actually GOOD All That, not that new crap...)and she had great potential for being funny. But after I started to watch more of the show, I relised how she had gotten less, and less funny. The skits are horrible, so is the music, so is the direction, and jokes. Amanda only starts to get very annoying after a short while.However there are a few redeeming things in The Amanda Show. The Actors are very talented, especially Drake Bell and Josh Peck. (They're 'Tony Pajama's and Paulie' Skit is hilarious. No wonder they got their own show). John Kassir, Nancy Sullivan, and even Dan Schnider (who makes his own appearances) are also talented actors, worth seeing.But not even they can save something like the Amanda Show. Im very sorry cast of Amanda Show, but this is not worth a persons time to watch. This show does not appeal to the veterans, or the younger aged viewers of Nickelodeon. (Pardon the spelling errors if I made any)
flecrone My six year old niece was watching the show and really enjoying it, so I sat down to watch it with her. I saw a "knock knock" skit in which the characters went around hitting people, including an old lady, with fish and laughing about it. I saw a skit in which a substitute teacher was fooled by the class into doing physically harmful things to himself while the class laughed. My niece is not allowed to watch the show any more.For what I saw of the show, there were some entertaining moments, but the humor was largely based on cruelty to others, not something television should be teaching young viewers.
