"Jonas" [Curtis-Schulman, 2009] Season 1 [May- Aug. '09]

Honestly, who had HIGH expectations for this show? I mean, first the Jonas Brothers, who can't sing, form a band, and now a TV show based on that band's members under a new band name, "JONAS"? And not only that, it's on Disney Channel. It seems virtually like a recipe for disaster-- but-- no, wait a minute, you don't even NEED to lay back and enjoy its comedic brilliance, finding it in every imaginable scenario as only commercial engineers like these Disney employees can-- it's an engaging experience, and perhaps it need not even cede its best-current-Disney-show title to Phineas & Ferb-- perhaps it is even TIED for that honor, given that P&F has been slacking off a bit recently. One of very few modern-day successful Disney Channel programs. Or, "In which the unbelievably dull Disney production studios fabricate the brightest actual pop (kiddie-comedy) TV season of 2009." [Also, I'd just like to apologize that this review is coming so late.] Grade: A MINUS
