Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
musicgirrl16 This show was the best, before it's time. It would have an audience even now. I don't know what company was in charge, The WB, CW or ABC Family? (They missed the ball) I watched the show when it came out in 2012 and now again in 2018. (Big thanks Hulu!) This could have been as big as "Jane the Virgin" or "Crazy Ex Girlfriend". I would love to see this relaunched, (that's all they're doing these days) But honestly, this was only the show it is/was because of the cast and creators (Sutton Foster and Kelly Bishop, love, love and the girls, and my favorite content creator Amy Sherman Palladino)
Koleen Hansen to whom may concern: I love this show I am sad they have cancel a just fun show there seem to cancel all family fun cute show bring bun heads I love Gilmore Girls I love Amy Sherman Palladio show she write family show.

FMinParis Very disappointing. Gets sillier and sillier each week and the young dancers are awfully annoying. I really had high hopes for the show because I loved Sutton Foster in "Thoroughly Modern Millie" and "Anything Goes" and I love dancing. But I hate when things start to get stupid and they're getting very stupid. Sutton's character is a mature woman but she acts like anything but. The character of the mother is from another planet. There is no real interesting conversation and after awhile I couldn't care less about what happens to them. Every time the kids come on I'm ready to bolt. To hear them kvetch and complain like five year olds is not pleasant. A show can be funny and still have some maturity in it. Add a zillion commercials every five minutes and who needs it? I finally just turned it off and took it off the schedule to watch or record.
ne_katja_girl I was a huge fan of "Gilmore Girls" and when I heard that Amy Sherman Palladino was creating a new show, I was eager to watch it. I grabbed my remote this past Monday night, my bowl of popcorn, and snuggled down on the couch to watch the premier episode of "Bunheads." After watching the entire pilot, I was left . . . wanting. I know many pilots are hard to judge as they are to jump start the new show, but remember, this is from the same woman who brought the amazing cast of characters that was "Gilmore Girls." I am NOT comparing the two. I am comparing the quality of effort put into the shows.Bunheads is about a former ballerina turned Vegas showgirl who gets married quickly and ends up in Paradise, a small coastal town, where the man she married is a prominent feature in the town and his mother plays an important part in his life. Not only is his mother important in his life, she lives in his house, and she also runs a ballet studio--shock and awe abound! His mother was a ballerina, his new wife is a ballerina! *Sarcasm intended* The main draw for the show is Sutton Foster (much more known for Broadway and it shows) and Kelly Bishop (who does not sparkle like she did in her previous roles.) The girls who are the four "stars" of the dance studio are lackluster and have no real chemistry with the show at all, especially the girl who plays Sasha. The Sasha character is supposed to be an angst character who has daddy issues and is bored with life, but the audience can tell that this is the actress' first role as she is a completely flat character. Every time she would open her mouth, I would cringe. The other three girls are not as bad; however, the inexperience shows.I will not continue to watch this show. There have been many actresses that have successfully moved from Broadway to TV, but Foster's acting feels a little too forced. I feel Bishop gave so much more in other roles and maybe the writers do not feel that they have to write quality work for her. Bishop is a dynamic actress, but when the writing is horrible, it's not worth watching her. Finally, until all of the girls get in good acting classes, especially the Sasha character, I will continually be turned off by the acting.Overall, I was disappointed and I was looking forward to seeing a great new show. I expected more from Ms. Sherman Palladino and ABC Family, but I think they decided to rely more on her success with "Gilmore Girls" and their success with some of their other shows, e.g. "Make It Or Break It," "The Lying Game," "Pretty Little Liars," instead of concentrating on quality writing, acting, and production of what could have been a great show.
