Demi... Demi, Demi, Demi, Demi... You're a nice girl, I respect that. Why would a nice girl like you star in a TV Show with a bunch of people who are out to get you? Just... why? Sonny is a nice girl from Wisconsin who gets the opportunity of a lifetime when she goes to Hollywood, California to star in a TV sitcom simply named "So Random!"... Wow, that would be a subtle name of a sitcom, don't you think? My thoughts on this show? Sonny is the only character I care about while all the others are so unlikeable, they would make the Garbage Pail Kids look like the Pound Puppies. Tawni Hart(played by Tiffany Thorton) is such a self-centered Paris Hilton wannabe, Chad Dylan Cooper(played by Sterling Knight) is a jerk, Nico Harris(Played by Brandon Mychal Smith) is like a human version of Scooby-Doo(Only not funny), Grady Mitchell(Played by Doug Brochu) is a doofus, and Allisyn Ashley Arm is so weird, she would make Beetlejuice look like a normal person. Long story short: Sonny is the only person I care about, the jokes are unfunny, "So Random!" is a ripoff of "All That!" and the rest of the cast are either mean, weird, or socially awkward.

I have seen most of the shows on NICK and Disney channels...and all are geared toward kids...mostly of the pre teen and teen age groups. No problem there. In years past, there was Kenan & Kel and All That for kids and their families to enjoy. Those kids grew up..and have been replaced by Hannna Montana, Raven and now Sonny With A Chance. I get that Sonny is out of her element and learning to deal with new people in a new place, etc...but must all the episodes be SO STUPID? The acting is mediocre at best..the laughs seem forces and predictable as well. It is a clash of personalities between Sonny and Tawny...and then there is the addition of Sterling Knight...as the ego-filled actor who seems too shallow minded for words. As usual, the adults..who are rarely shown for long, are outrageous and fairly useless when they are on camera. This is suppose to be about a show within a show..yet even THAT pretend show seems lame. If anyone out there remembers All That when it was THE SHOW for kids...they will quickly know this is a badly made copy of that. Where is original stuff? Stop using old ideas.

Let me say out of everything I watched on Disney Channel, this was the most disappointing thing ever. If Disney Channel already has bad shows like Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place, why would they put ANOTHER bad show in the mix? Just what we need, another show about a girl who becomes some big thing with its stale jokes. I thought Disney Channel learned their lesson about lame shows like Hannah Montana and Phil of the Future. Apparently not, because Disney Channel has a lot to learn.The show is about a girl named Sonny, who is played by Demi Levato. SWAC was only an excuse to make Demi her own show. Anyway, Sonny gets picked for a new role in a lame show called So Random, which is So Boring and So Repetitive. Sonny meets the stereotypical cast members there: A preppy female, two idiotic males, and an evil little girl. Reused ideas at its worst.The shorts IN the show are more terrible than the show itself. Not only do the shorts have stale comedy and plot, but the themes of those shorts are just the most repetitive things I have ever heard of. Every theme song follows this pattern: A short description of the character, the name of the character, and the dumbest catch phrase Disney Channel can come up with.In conclusion, SWAC is a gigantic bomb. Not only is it bad, but it's the most disappointing and unoriginal thing on the face of the Earth. Disney fan-girls, OPEN YOUR EYES! You think Disney Channel is making all these great shows. Sadly, you're not even watching them. You're just eating a slice of pizza instead.

I found SWAC one night when I was bored out of my mind and felt like watching some Disney Channel shows off Netflix. I found season one of Sonny With A Chance and decided to check it out for laughs and as a time waster. The first episode did just that, I didn't enjoy it anymore than I enjoy Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, The Suite Life of Zach and Cody, or any other "good" Disney Channel shows. However, I chose to watch the second episode and soon found myself suppressing laughter to keep my parents from waking up. I ended up watching the entire season one and the first three episodes of season two in one night. I enjoyed it greatly and, though I was exhausted from getting very little sleep, I spent the next day reliving the episodes. Although i do enjoy SWAC, there are some areas where it could use a bit of help. The part of Sonny is played by Demi Lovato. She plays a smiley, bubbly girl. Her acting covers this easily, but wavers when it comes to the more serious, less comedic aspects of the show. Luckily the show is a comedy so Demi is generally good. Nico and Grady, played by Brandom Smith and Doug Brochu, are two classic Disney characters. They love money, girls, and food. They're the Disney Duo that we've seen in so many Disney shows. Like Demi, their acting is mostly good but does have a few flaws here and there. Zora, a strange and crazy character played by Allisyn Ashley Arm, is a 11 year old that stars on So Random! the SNL for teenagers that the characters act on. Although Zora can get a bit annoying at times, I usually don't mind her. Allisyn's acting isn't perfect in any respects, but she's a young girl and we can only expect so much. Sonny's rival So Random! star is Tawni, a blonde that's...well, a blonde. She and Sonny have a couple touching moments, regardless of their slight dislike for one another. Tawni is played by Tiffany Thornton. In my opinion, Tiffany is the best actress on the show. She's understandable, believable, and very funny. I usually don't enjoy her sort of character, but Tiffany really makes me smile. Chad Dylan Cooper, Sonny's love interest, is played by Sterling Knight, whom I'd hardly heard of until SWAC. He, like Tiffany possesses plenty of talent. His character is self-absorbed at times and yet really sweet at other points. His dynamic with Sonny is so incredible and cute, and their relationship isn't the normal Disney "boy meets girl. They're perfect for each other, but can't be together due to some secret (popstar, wizard, psychic, etc). Finally the girl comes clean and they live happily ever after". Instead both Sonny and Chad are in denial about their feelings. It's cute. In the end, SWAC surprised and delighted me. Looks like Disney finally found a good show.
