Grown Ups (1999–2000)
8/10
Good while it lasted...
19 December 2006
I gave this show a chance because of Jaleel White, not for his Urkel character, but mainly for the Sonic the Hedgehog voice XD So anyway, like I said, I gave it a chance, and I was very fond of it. I never cared for the Urkel character, so I was pleased to see Mr. White in a role other than the ever-so-annoying nerd. And his Calvin J. Fraiser (first called Calvin, but come the second episode, everyone started calling him "J") was very entertaining and interesting.

I think my favorite episode was when J was dating the ex-Cowboys cheerleader with the snobby kid. ("Don't you talk that way 'bout my momma!" "This is grown-up talk, you stay down there!") The only beef I have is that the show was suppose to have 3 main characters, but Mr. White's character always seemed to have the most attention and the other two (who are married) always had the back stories... It isn't exactly a good thing when a story about those two possibly being pregnant takes backseat to J. having to babysit his girlfriend's dog.....

Other than that, I really wish this show could have lasted a little longer. Unfortunetely, it seems that people weren't interested in Jaleel White as something other than the God-Awful annoying ass nerd known as Urkel....

Hope they at least put it out as a DVD box set.

Don't care what others say... BEST SONIC CARTOON!!!
31 December 2000
Yes, you may think I'm out of my mind, but I really_DO_love this cartoon!

So it isn't as serious as the one on ABC. That's what makes it funny! I like silly sitcom things! And it isn't attempting to be like a serious show or do anything dramatic... it's out there to be funny! And it does a pretty good job at it too!

And for those who prefer SEGA's storyline over what the SatAM one created itself, then I recommend this cartoon to you. Sure the animation is kinda... ick! But still, if you look at it the right way, you may end up liking this show. ^^

My Brother and Me (1994–1995)
Probably the WORST family show
26 April 1999
Like the title says, it's the WORST!! It's nothing but stupid characters with stupid characteristic, bad acting, the same jokes used over and over (and they happen to be bad jokes too), and the WORST plots!

Ex. Deedee can't go to the ballgame, so he runs away Alfie doesn't want to wear tights, so he quits the play Dionne complaing about the stupiest things so much, it really annoys you!

Dangit, this show makes Full House look funny!

Sonic the Hedgehog (1993–1994)
Not your average Sega show
3 March 1999
This show is very nice. Nice enough to have the same plot in a comic book! But, what image does this show of the SEGA world? I mean, unlike Mario Brother's shows, which had all the characters from the games, the right attitudes, even the sound effects, this show has Sonic acting as his role of a hero WAAY too far, Tails is just a trainee instead of Sonic's sidekick, and Sally seemed to take place of Amy Rose's role as the leading lady. Robotnik's look was even different from the games! This show IS good, but the lack of SEGA plots and stuff probably caused it to go off the air.
