Sigh....why Nickelodeon Why....

Warning: Spoilers
The commercials alone pushed my interest away already. You can't just keep shoving a show down someone's throat for so long. Just too many versions of the commercial. Plus, the premise is kinda overdone, but, they play the whole sympathetic card. I guess you can count these as spoilers, so I'm going to put them in spoiler.

Basically, a group of kids listen to this one kid to board the spacecraft and that it'll be awesome. They sneak onto the craft and got launched into space. That's the main thing, they didn't want to be smart, and got what they deserved. Instead however, the show wants you to feel bad for these kids from the look of things. One Commercial shows a girl drawing a heart on the window, and the other has another girl saying that she's scared, and just wants to go home. These two commercials alone tries to play the sympathy card as if we should feel bad when it's clearly their fault in the first place. So why should I feel sympathy if they did something dumb? To put it into perspective, none of this is the kid actor's fault, it's the horrible script writing.

Nickelodeon: stick with the cartoons, your live action things usually never go well. This I can say with confidence, is going to be one of them.(not as terrible as Young Dylan).

Update: I decided to give it a try, and well, we already have a few problems.They got launched 1000 miles, no protective gear or anything, yet were perfectly fine after that? No injuries? Then, we have this one girl named Sammie I believe, who knows every single thing about the ships, how to fix it, and the other kids can do it perfectly in one go. We do get told she was around astronaut equipment when 5. However, what parent, or let alone, facility member, would let a 5 year old let them touch everything to know all of this. It just makes no sense. I thought they were untrained, but they aren't looking untrained. They're literally contradicting their premise(which wasn't a good one in the first place).

Yeah, like I said, this is going to be another failure live com of Nickelodeon. Avoid it.
