Comic tales of a group of good friends, 4 boys and 2 girls, during breaks in primary school, as they grow up, relate to each other, and have brushes with authority. I remember myself coming home from school and turning on the TV watching this show about 4 friends who went to school together 2 of them were boys and the other 2 were girls there was also a principal and the casual guy who is always closer to the teacher and i just wanted to punch him in the face every time he came on screen but besides that i don't remember many things about the show but i remember that it was really fun when they talked during breaks or did something to make the principal or the teachers to go mad and i think anyone can connect with the show especially when you still go to school or anything like that.

Recess was a really good show. I loved it so much. Although I haven't watched this show in about 7 or 8 years I have never forgotten about it. Recess is about a group of six 4th graders trying to face challenges and make it through the course of a school year. There was TJ, a born leader, who never backed down from a challenge. There was Gretchen a super genius who knew a lot about science and was the brains of TJs plans. THere was Spinelli, a tough girl, who always would fight with a lot of people. There was Vince, who was the athletic, sporty kind of guy. Then there was Mikey, the sweet, poetic, kid who always tried to do the right thing. Lastly, there was Guss, the new kid, and who is sort of timid, and shy at times. I thought that each episode was entertaining and I liked the stories in each episode. All six of the main characters had great chemistry together although all of them had different personalities they still got along well.In conclusion this was a great show one of Disney's finest too bad Disney doesn't make shows like this anymore :(

This show took the audience into the world of the playground and made it something much more. In this world there are different groups, different classes....It wasn't made to educate simply to entertain and thats what it did with success.TJ along with his friends, Gretchen, Vince, Gus, Mikey and Spanelli are at the bottom and therefore try to survive. The show combines some great comedy with some great plot twists and explores the different areas of the playground and the individuals.The music at the start says it all...its a army beat that captures the audience, I have currently cousins who are watching the show and can't believe that I once watched this show with amusement...Overall a great children's TV show..

OK, I don't have much to say about this show. Only, if u haven't seen it please watch as many reruns as you can. I love this show. It embodies just about how all kids probably felt in their time when they had recess. T.J is the leader, and quite a looker. He brings the humor and schemes to the show. Spinelli is the tough chick, scared of no one and nothing. She brings the strength. Vince is the athlete, he always wins. He brings coolness and determination. Gretchen is the genius. The brain, she brings the strategic moves of all the plans. Mikey, he is the gentle giant. He brings the heart of the operations. And last Gus, the nerd, the wimp at times. He brings reality and that no matter how small you are you can be heard. But IMDb has said that it was finished in 2001, but on my television I got shows that have appeared in 2003. Theinfo shows the year the episodes appear and I have 2003 so how can it have been finished in 01. But anyway, this show is a classic and there can't be a replica. Recess is a show that shows that all things are possible and that you don't have to be an adult or have money and power to make a difference. And also that your true friends are with you no matter what.
