    I can't believe this is a modern-day show geared towards kids with so many awful racist generalisations. I mean, I have a pretty irreverent sense of humour, but this is supposed to be a kids' show? Unfortunately, my daughter loves it so I have to explain to her that not all Asians talk with a thick accent, are prolific at martial arts, and all have the same last name. Dang's character is pretty much a close cousin to Mr. Yunioshi from Breakfast at Tiffany's but sadly, his character (while hugely stereotyped) is the funniest on the show. The rest of the characters are ridiculously stupid, even the main character who is supposed to be a genius. I am baffled as to how this managed to get more than a season's run.

    This show is extremely annoying and shockingly inappropriate. All these so-called 'teenager' sitcoms have inappropriate and disgusting parts, but this show has too many. The only good idea is that the teacher is the same age as the students, but the extreme inappropriateness of what he sometimes says and does is repulsive and disgusting, considering it's towards one of his 'students'. The show is also really choppy and it's like it's homemade and people enter the screen out of no where. It doesn't flow smoothly and naturally, it's really forced and fake. The acting itself is not that fake, but the way the people enter the screen or randomly start their dialogues is. And that makes this so annoying to watch. Episodes are also barely funny and the only character who adds a slight bit of comedy is Derby. Echo is the most annoying and stupid character on the whole show. She thinks she's cute but she really isn't, in fact, her acting is extremely annoying and pathetic and she ruins the whole show. Also, the extreme stereotypes in the show is beyond limits. It's so focused on that it cannot be ignored, whether it's based on gender, 'bully', 'nerd', 'dumb one', etc, it's so pronounced and combining this with a choppily made show with no connection between scenes makes it horrible. 4/10.

    What to say. This show has made me laugh since joke one. Its swift, fit for those not expecting to laugh and crack up seriously with every passing bar-moment of its comedy. Those who don't like this show, your definitely entitled to an opinion; but so am I and I give this show ten thumbs up. I was entertained for most episodes and believe the plot, humour, and comedic climax well-balanced. If your a potential-viewer be aware of tremendous laughs ahead, clever jokes meant for older kids, teens and definitely "been-there" adults. The dialogue is well-revised. The jokes bounce back well. Every character possesses an image of humour; and we can tell they've been well-drafted during casting. One of "the" best shows I've seen from Disney. Thank you. !

    I am a parent to a 7 year old. We rarely watch YTV, but I decided to let her watch it. I first watched 10 min of some other awful show, and then this show "Mr. Young" came on. I watched 5 min before I turned it off. Not knowing that the basis of the show was, and not really caring, I was disgusted by the plot. I obviously could tell that the kid "Mr. Young" was a kid, but regardless of if he was a kid or not, he was still a teacher. In this episode he was trying to hide his relationship with a STUDENT named "Echo" (irrelevant, but that name sounds like a dog's name). What is this teaching children?!?! With all the teacher's taking advantage of kid's these days, and all the stories about molestation and child predators, I don't think this show is appropriate for ANY age. All I got from the 5 min that I watched it (and I could tell that was all the time I needed)that it was sending a really bad message to kids. It was sending the message that a)It is okay to date a teacher/ allow a teacher to take advantage of you, and b) that if you do date a teacher that you should hide it from your peers (that's not predatory at all!). I didn't watch much more because I was disgusted, and I had to turn the channel, and tell my daughter and 11yr old niece that it was absolutely NOT okay to date your teacher regardless of the situation. This show should be canceled and banned. We wonder why our kid's are so messed up today?! It is smut like this that is causing kid's to become the way they are today. Disgusting. You should be ashamed, and any broadcast company that plays this show should be ashamed. What ever happened to educational, wholesome, and fun TV?
