I listened this on an episode of "GMW" and I was caught immediately by it.
Lyrics and music straightforward and unpretentious, but easy to listen and very catchy:
The video idea is really stupid (especially the little kid, presented as an exaggerated gay stereotype, far away from classical Disney concepts btw), but what makes it worth to watch this video (at least to me) is Rowan's acting: she looks so funny acting like a "dark and bad" girl that I can't stop laughing. A strong contrast with her role on GMW, lol!
During the end of the first season and beginning of the second season, the series of "GMW" had been something preachy and, yes, something boring. However, the last four broadcasted episodes (S02eps20-eps23) have been the best of the series - until now, according to my humble opinion and, of course, for my taste.
In all these episodes, Sabrina's performance has shone hugely. It was so good that not even the excessively limiting puritanical censorship imposed by Disney Channel on their series has avoided such talent shines by her own, transcending to really important levels and overshadowing the rest of the cast. She not only sings well and is very focused and clear about life, but also acts very well. In a strict sense (and without knowing if it will remain the same in the future), Sabrina has stolen the show completely to her co-star, Rowan Blanchard, turning the latter into a mere supplementary character, in a show that is supposed dealing about Riley´s life and not on Maya's.
Regardless of Disney, excellent show (and great ratings too).
Stopped watching this show after the Christmas episode. That one basically had no story and felt more like a therapy session than entertainment. It's one thing to have a moral to your story, it's another thing to have the moral be your story. A theme should flow naturally out of creative storytelling if the characters are good, which they are here. I'm sure its the best live-action show on Disney but could be much funnier.
Unfortunately, there are hardly any modern shows that are worth watching. Most are either too realistic or too bogged down by an agenda. I'm actually curious if people watching shows like Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family and the like are even cognizant of the stream of blathering, humanist narration that encapsulates almost every episode. And yet the bs moral lessons are whatever the modern culture deems correct atm and not based in anything substantive.
I mostly watch reruns of shows I know are good, including LazyTown, or try a few episodes of something that looks interesting. But 99% stuff on cable is trash and like 95% of Netflix is. Better off going to your local FYE and picking up a DVD classic set off the tv series wall or animation. You can find great, imaginative entertainment for good price.
