I was hoping for ever more hilarity in the grand Schneider tradition, and from the beginning we've got it. Glorious rudeness from Sam, sweet ditziness from Cat, copious Getting Crap Past The Radar, weird humor (which usually makes sense in context - usually), a batty old woman (Cat's Nonna), a severe case of Totally RadicalBuffy Speak, Old Media Playing Catch Up, eye-catching art design, and sheer wrongness everywhere. I gotta say, the way Dan Schneider's shows have become increasingly non-realistic and hyper-screwball really helps make them ever more hilarious. Hoo boy, do I await the rest of the new episodes! I get the nasty feeling, though, that this might well end up being the last of the great Schneider shows, especially with the aging of the core casts from every show. Ah well. Three or four years of this and I may finally be ready to give up on any attempt to keep myself youthful forever!
