High School Musical: The Musical: The Series

This show was surprising! When first seeing that HSM would become a series I was very against the idea. The show is a fun experience, with new characters who have interesting personalities than other Disney Channel shows. High School Musical: The Musical- The Series feels fresh and new, with a new humor to it. The series documentary feel adds a humorous effect to it as well. The show appeals to children as well as adults!

Season One: 7/10

Themes: High School, Drama, Musical, Comedy & Second-Chance Romance.

Top three characters: 1) Ricky Bowen, 2) Ashlyn Caswell and 3) Nini Salazar-Roberts.

To start, I almost had no interest in even watching this show originally because I thought it was just going to be childish and cheesey. Then I decided to give it a shot and boy I can tell you that it's by no means boring or bad. It is clearly cheesey, but the show is well aware of that and firmly embraces it. The acting is really good actually, specifically the kids. I'm actually more invested in this show more than I should be, honestly. It is definitely a good time, especially if you are just looking for something lighthearted and fun.

I am part of the generation that obsessed over HSM. Yes, I watched them all as a kid. I liked the music, but never really got extremely into it. This may be an unpopular opinion, but this show is way better. It is like a PG version of GLEE, but I'll confidently say it's better than that show ever was. The actors are good, acutely believable for high schoolers too. A lot of them have great voices and great chemistry together. I started watching this with my friend who's never seen HSM; we thought it would be a joke. Yet, both of us where pleasantly surprised and got sucked into it. I'm not ashamed to say I'm excited for the next season, and I hope these actors get the chance to prove their potential. Once again, a Disney+ original does not fail!

This show isn't trying to be high school musical, and it shouldn't. They made a great Easy to watch teens series, that fits to young adults (and young in heart) who grew up watching the original high school musical. Just right, great cast (Nini is awesome ), no complains.
