This is a strong kids show that can be enjoyed by teens and adults because it often thinks outside the box with it's humor and stories. However, sometimes the writing succumbs to bad clichés, stock 90s/2000s cartoon kid and teen plots and some of the characters are a bit annoying so that docks it a few points .

Pepper Ann is an underrated show. It came on during a time where tv cartoons wasn't as popular as today.

It's a life learning cartoon and a girl who is probably a lesbian going through common life trials.

It was a smart show.

Verdict: I enjoyed watching this show very much.

Every night I watch Pepper Ann on Toon Disney. The characters are fun and realistic. The stories have important messages without being preachy and the characters actually learn and change. Unlike most shows that seem to have a formula for their episodes each Ep of Pepper Ann is original and fresh.

I recommend this show for anyone who enjoys shows that make you think while giving you a good time.

Pepper Ann is a great show. I never get to tired of it. I first started watching it when it premiered on One Saturday Morning, when I was 10. Now I am 17 and I still watch it on Toon Disney. I like the characters, the animation, and especially the theme song.

Pepper Ann is an average 12 year old whose family is like an average family. Her parents are divorced and her sister is a tomboy. Pepper Ann just wants be liked by her peers. Her best friends are Milo and Nikki. Milo is an inspiring artist who is always there for Pepper Ann. Nikki is smart and is always helping Pepper Ann in times of need.

Overall Pepper Ann is a very good show and I suggest it to people of all ages. I give this show 10/10 stars.

Best show for young girls! I wish they would put it on Disney+

A great show this is what i call a legend in Toon Disney hooray yes yes yes awesome show amazing amazing this what i think of this show just amazing and entertaning.

The Saturday this was supposed to have premiered on was the same day as Princess Diana's funeral, so ABC preempted it and debuted it a week later as part of their "One Saturday Morning" and I fell in love instantly. In my opinion, this was Disney's best animated show since "The Disney Afternoon" heyday of the late 80s, early 90s with such classics as, "Gummi Bears", "Chip N' Dale, Rescue Rangers", "Tale Spin", "Darkwing Duck", "Goof Troop" and "Bonkers." To see Disney return to their roots, if only for a brief moment, was wonderful.

However, due to some stupidity at the Disney corporate level, "Pepper Ann" was cancelled in February 2000 and relegated to "Disney's One Too", a daily version of "One Saturday Morning" that aired on UPN stations. This was a great show and not one to be shot down so quickly. How "Recess" managed to last so long with their most recent episodes being three years old already and their not-too-appealing movie is a sin.

If crap like "Teacher's Pet" (which flopped) and "Recess" (which I was a fan of in the very beginning) can get the big screen treatment, then why not "Pepper Ann"?

I'm glad I was born in the early 1990s, because I grew up watching hilarious and witty shows on Saturday morning. I feel sorry for kids now, especially preteens. Shows that are geared towards their age group have anxiety-ridden, perpetually sarcastic characters. Even if it's a comedy it'll still be depressing. Pepper Ann was different in a sense that it didn't follow a generic formula. Despite being a cartoon, it contained real life elements. She's an eccentric 12-year-old girl with an active imagination who, along with her friends Nicky and Milo, is trying to navigate the landscape of friendships and crushes. This was also one of the first cartoons I've seen that portrayed a nontraditional family - Pepper Ann's parents are divorced. However, what made their situation different is they didn't get divorced because they were having problems with each other. Her dad was a blimp operator, so he wasn't home much. He was in a few episodes, and it's apparent she has a positive relationship with him. She has a younger sister named Margaret, whose voice is deeper and more hoarse than hers. In fact, she sounds like a man. Some people might find that strange but it's funny to me. I don't think a kid's show will ever be this clever again. Watching now as an adult, I found myself noticing that sometimes the humor was quite suggestive, and I'm sure it went over my head when I was a kid. For example, in one episode, Pepper Ann and Milo are at school, and when they come out of the janitor's closet, a bunch of students are all standing around. Well, my 29-year-old self got a kick out of that! I hope they don't remake this. With the overly sensitive and uptight society we're living in, there's no way it would be enjoyable like the original.

You can see pepper Ann again on Disney plus. The cartoon everyone has fallen in love with is now streaming!!

How has this not been released on Disney plus yet, this show was one my favorites on the One Saturday Morning cartoon block.

I was sick recently and I was looking for something decent to watch on TV because the only thing on was Dora the explorer. so I stumbled upon pepper ann on toon Disney's wild card show. I watched about two episodes and I got hooked. I love this show. I am 13 and I really think that it addresses teenage life, but there is one problem let me show you Nicky- anorexic Milo- manorexic pepper ann- pepper an(n)orexic the German kid-obese that is the only thing, the characters are so skinny it looks like they're all anorexic! with the exception of the German guy, and I am 1/4 German, it make me lose faith, but I still give this show a 10 because it really is cute, and the theme song rocks unlike something else of that time period. but the reason I like it most is that it REALLY addresses teenage life. I look for it a lot and I try to see if I could find it on, too bad my family Tivo isn't hooked up to our IO box...

Absolutely light-hearted, fun and imaginative! I love Peppie, Milo, Nicky, Moose! Unlike other Disney shows, the one-parent family is realistically portrayed and the kids are actually funny. I especially like the real-life aspects of the show... the divorced parents, Jewish mom and Catholic dad, the over-achieving best friend, the sexually ambiguous little sister... These elements combined with the cartoonish comedy make for some hilarious situations. Not to mention, Pepper Ann's theme song is great, great, great! It never succumbed to crazy gimmicks, spin-offs or new "very special" characters. Maybe it's not as sophisticated as Doug, but Pepper Ann is a heart-warming and uplifting show, great for younger and older kids... and much older kids. I'm glad Disney still keeps it in rotation. This is one of those kids' shows that actually leaves you entertained after a half hour.

Pepper Ann is the coolest show. I seriously can't wait if they ever make a movie. Pepper Ann herself is pretty funny, but I think the funniest on the show is Milo. It's a good show not only because it relates to teens, like me, but its got a whole load of jokes for adults, too!

I really think this was a cute show, the animation was good, and it was pretty original. Pepper ann was a regular 7th grade girl going through life's ups and downs with her best friends, the perfect nicki little, and the original artist milo kamalani......along with them there was lydia, Pepper ann's single working mother, pepper ann's sister Moose *margaret* who sounded and acted like a boy and fooled many until we realized what she was. Then there was aunt janie the hippie cool aunt and her husband jojo, the all around good guy cop. There was also pepper ann's father who you never saw much of and had an accent that you really could never figure out where he was from... and of course there were grandma and grandpa, the old fashioned yet fun grandparents of the girls, all together it really was a fun show if you were into that kind of thing, considering other crumby cartoons that were around then, Pepper Ann and Recess really weren't half bad. Definitley worth a look!

Pepper Ann is another one of those cartoons that kids and adults alike can laugh at. The writing is witty, the characters are charming, the animation is colorful and fun too watch. While I am not a big fan of cartoons, I have to rate this one up there with The Simpsons, and Arthur. Only low point, you have to get up mighty early, and on a Saturday, too see it. Luckily, I own a VCR.

There are a few cartoons that I used to watch even in my late teens, as I always thought they were some of the greatest shows left on television. Stuff like 'Mad Jack the Pirate,' a short-lived Fox cartoon, 'Eek the Cat', and 'Bobby's World' (I assure you, it's only coincidental that these are all Fox cartoons).

But Pepper Ann was gold for me. This little Disney diddie is about 7th grade red-head, Pepper Anne, and her adventures involving her friends, Nikki (Von Oy) the obsessive compulsive brain, and Milo (Cooksey), Pepper Ann's artistic friend. And, there's the rest of the gang like Ober, the fat german kid, the twins, Pepper Anne's sister Moose (it took me a while to figure out that Moose was her sister and not her brother), and the kid with the braces, who Pepper Ann likes.

I think this Pepper Ann was based on the Pepper Ann character that Lily Tomlin used to do where she used to sit in that huge rocking chair. I know that previously, ABC tried to do a mix live-action and animation version of the show in a Paddington Bear type of style. But I seem to remember that version lasting only a few episodes. But this Pepper Ann is fully animated, and one of the best cartoons I've ever seen.

I think I really admired this cartoon because it was so packed with humor (especially subtle super-humor) and intelligence even when the characters were involved in the most outrageous situations. I just wish Disney hadn't done away with the show. It was simply fantastic.

When I first heard of Pepper Ann, I wrote it off as another stupid Disney series. In fact, I wouldn't give it a chance until I saw the Musical (I was too tired to change channels). I collapsed laughing, as it highlighted EVERY irritating musical cliche far better than any other I've seen so far (I haven't seen the Buffy one yet, though). So I decided to give the series a chance. Sometimes it's not too entertaining, but a lot of the time it has a great off-beat humor style that frequently leaves me with at least a satisfied smirk on my face. "Pepper Ann" captures middle school well (Believe me, I know, I'm in the eighth grade), with a funny cast of characters from the title character (The slightly nuts, awkward, scheming P.A.) to the smaller, more obscure ones (Wayne Macabre, Pink-Eye Pete, Vera the Secretary). If you get Toon Disney or have the luck of seeing it on the Disney Channel (It's one of two decent shows on that channel, too!), give this cartoon a chance, because it could really surprise you.

This is the funniest family friendly cartoon out there. Pepper Ann is your basic 7th grade girl who is full of character. The show focuses mainly on the relationships she has with her family (single mom and younger tomboy sister) and her best friends (Nicky the perfect girl and, my favorite character, Milo the sensitive yet odd and goofy artist). My other favorite characters include Dieter, the chubby foreign exchange student, and Mr. Phinky, the tragically hip civics teacher.

If you want a break from the vulgar antics of "South Park" and "Family Guy", but want a step up from "Winnie the Pooh" and "Pokemon", check out "Pepper Ann".

Pepper Ann is a really good show, and it saddens me to see people write it of as some stupid crappy kiddy show, although you can't blame them since it airs between two crap-o-ramas, (the unoriginal Recess and the utterly boring and stupid Sabrina: The Animated Series). This show is funny, smart, and entertaining. Watch it now!! Make sure to see The Bra Episode, ("The only Miracle here is that somebody would by this." says Pepper Ann's little sister Moose, who is trying on a Miracle Bra for Pepper Ann). Watch and enjoy.

The animation for Pepper Ann looks pretty crude by today's standards, but it's consistent, has a definite charm, and is so cute.

What makes this series stand out is its writing and cast - and a great theme song and incidental music, too. It's jam-packed with witty and hilarious observations. The episodes stand up to repeated watching, and many of them are classics. The consistency of the storylines would put any Star Trek series to shame (and I'm a Trekkie).

The characters are great and impeccably well fleshed-out. For once, there's a healthy dose of excellent female characters, and indeed, most of the stories revolve around them. And they're brilliantly acted by a superb voice cast.

Kudos to the makers!

This show is really funny. I just can't get over it. You're always laughing during this show. I wish it was still on the air. I love the one when she has the dream everyone is singing. It was on this morning and it was priceless. "C-H-I-C-K-E-N!" Lydia sings, and then Pepper Ann says, "Mom, why is there dancing chicken's on the couch?" THAT is hilarious. I really wish it was still on the air. BRING IT BACK I'M BEGGIN YOU!! The theme song is really great too. I've only met 1 person so far that doesn't like this show. Why'd they cancel it? It's a mystery. This was a great show and thanks to the creator for creating it! I still enjoy it, Toon Disney, if you take it off your channel i will be upset! So keep me happy!

By all accounts, I shouldn't like Pepper Ann, but I do. It has something no other cartoon out there has; a strong yet flawed female character who has legitimate problems in her pre-teen life. Unlike other programs that attempt to tackle this, the series is not patronizing, nor does it try to diminish the importance of these issues.

While not as captivating or funny as it's Disney counterpart, Doug, it does carry with it a greater sense of realism and multi-dimensional characters. This is a rare find.

"Pepper Ann" is a great show for kids. The show is really funny, and is one of the cartoon on TV that makes me laugh! The animation is great to, it's just a great show and is fun to watch for anybody! The second best show on the "One Saturday Morning" shows. Good for a great laugh and something for the kids to watch that they'll love!

This t.v. series is a funny little show about 3 best friends in 7th grade. The art in the show (since it is a cartoon) is interesting since it was all done in Japan. The voices are interesting and the stories especially. I recommend this to kids 12 and under.
