Having virtually every kid TVshow synchronized into Dutch, I don't know how the English version sounds, but I really like the Dutch version too. Braceface embraces all those horrific problems teenage girls go through. From falling in love with the one boy everyone wants to growing from a girl into a woman. Episodes vary from love to hate and everything in between.Actually, this is not really a series for young girls. All the problems main character Sharon gets into will be highly recognizable for girls in their late teen-ages or twenties, but not if you yourself are actually 13. Having said that, a wonderful series that I always tend to enjoy in the morning or the afternoon for a good and decent laugh.

Alicia Silverstone and Liv Tyler made a wonderful team in Aerosmith's video for "Crazy" back in 1994, the same year the lovely Liv made her screen debut in "Silent Fall" (oh dear). By 1995 Alicia was the bigger star thanks to her turn in the delightful "Clueless," and everyone had forgiven her for "The Crush." Then she formed First Kiss Productions through which she did "Excess Baggage" (like Sylvester Stallone's White Eagle with "Lock Up," there wasn't a followup), gained some excess baggage of her own, and signed up as Batgirl in "Batman & Robin" - a mistake from which her career, unlike George Clooney's, hasn't recovered to this day."Braceface" didn't help her much either; this pretty standard teen-targeted cartoon executive produced by the former Cher Horovitz also stars her as the voice of the nicknamed title character, whose happy adolescent life changes when she's stuck with braces for two years. Do they give her superpowers? Are they talking braces? No, just regular braces; making her more self-conscious, and so on.The thing is, there's little that distinguishes this series from other animated ("What About Mimi?", "The Proud Family") or live-action shows of its ilk, other than Miss Silverstone's slightly over-enthusiastic line readings (though it's preferable to just delivering them dully, a la DeForest Kelley on the animated "Star Trek") - it's been seen before, and better. The show's scrappy animation doesn't help either; it's more grotesque than anything with a braces-wearing title character has any right to be. Ultimately, the biggest criticism of this show is that I missed yesterday's airing ("Braceface" is shown Sunday mornings on Five in the UK), and I didn't feel like I was missing something essential. It's not as pointed as "Daria" or as amusing as "Agrippine," but it's still better than "Treasure."But I bet Alicia Silverstone wishes she was Liv Tyler now.

Braceface is just a cartoon, but it´s a great show. Actually the first time I saw it, I totally adored it! And I used to dislike cartoons. When they show it I'm actually singing along with the opening song.It´s about a 13 years old girl named Sharon: the braceface. She and her two best friends Conner and Maria try to survive high school. Sharon falls in love with a boy named Alden. He has his own band. But just like always there's a girl who thinks she's the whole world. I'm talking about the enemy of Sharon. That girl has a crush on Alden too. Things work out just fine and Alden and Sharon even got together.Somehow this cartoon reminds me of Lizzie McGuire. But after all it's a great cartoon and kids will love it!

The first time I saw this show I loved it right away. It deals with teenage problems that, let's face it probably any teenage girl would go through. Sometimes it can be a bit childish, but it only makes it more humorous. It has a great voice cast, especially Alicia Silverstone. I love Braceface and I hope it continues, it can be a great show for any teenager.
