    I absolutely loved this show so much when it first came out. I was right around the age of "aging out of Disney Channel" when it came out and I felt like it was the first show that I saw on Disney Channel that treated me, an audience member, as a smart individual capable of maturity. It wasn't a dumb show with no substance; it actually taught me things, like what it felt like to have panic attacks when they discussed Jonah and his struggle with them. It talked about serious issues and topics that most Disney shows shied away from and I felt like that was important for me as someone who was around preteen age when it started (so right around the actual ages of the characters). I'm so happy to see that so many others in the comment section loved this show just as much as I did ❤️
    I've also actually met Sofia Wylie who played Buffy (she often comes into the place that I work at as a customer) and she's super nice!! I feel like that just makes the show even better in my mind lol

      I remember that episode vividly of when Jonah had his frost major one at Cyrus's bar mitzvah. It was one of the first times I had seen what a panic attack looked like on TV. And then a few years later I had my first one and remembered that episode and related a lot to what happened. Truly a wonderful show that showed kids things that were considered "taboo" or "improper" to show kids, and I always appreciated that about it.

    I loved that the series creator was inspired by Jack Nicholson's family history. In his mid 30's, he learned that his "older sister" was really his mum, and his "parents" really his grandparents. Unlike the show, he didn't confront them about it, since they'd all passed away by the time he found out the truth.

      Good Luck Charile had an episode that reveals that Bob and Amy Ducan were not really married and they had to get married again to have an actual license. So they basically had their first four kids out of wedlock without realizing it. But the show didn't treat that part as weird. The Amazing World of Gumball also had an episode that implies that Richard and Nicole conceived Gumball out of wedlock and didn't make it werid either.

    I still remember when I used to watch this show with my grandma. She moved in one day and we shared rooms for the majority of her time. She died recently, and unfortunately for me, I saw it happen. This show is a reminder of those times I’ve spent with her, and while looking back I wish I could’ve done more for her, reflecting on those memories brings me a sense of peace and nostalgia. I doubt you’ll see this, but thank you, Alex. I want you to know that you’ve made me smile today, like this show did when it first aired, and like my grandma did before she passed. God bless.

    I was not expecting the plot twist that her sister is actually her mom, I was shook 😅 especially since I’ve never thought Disney would do a show about a girl learning she had a teen mom. Compared to their other shows which mostly had laugh tracks, I appreciated that this one didn’t have that. It was refreshing and definitely had that ABC Family type of vibe in the beginning, which made it very different from the rest of Disney Channel shows. One of the best shows from the modern Disney Channel era (late 2010s), especially the first season. Also this is what Girl Meets World could’ve and should’ve been.

    Like I said previously, Andi Mack was the first show to actually push limits. I feel like it was Disney really trying to compete with Nickelodeon who has always pushed the envelope. I still don’t understand why they started to get more mature with this show but couldn’t age up the girl meets world characters & their storyline or work with a more mature Lizzie McGuire reboot. If Cory & Shawn stayed in high school for the entire run, it would’ve gotten old real fast. I also recently discovered they went from 6th grade to 9th grade in two seasons. 😂

Basically an infidelity storyline & Disney made this face 😡 & said no. So they scrapped the whole idea with Terri Minsky (OG creator) stepping down because Disney didn’t want a more mature storyline & Hilary herself saying “No I’m out deuces” because Disney wants a not Sachron but not a serious tone to the show & that’s what Hilary & Terri wanted.

They also have a very deep-rooted goal of undoing all that Walt Disney created because apparently Mulan wasn't impowering enough. Also Disney is being boycotted because they've not considered donating their billions of dollars to a country that is being b*mbed on the same level of Hiroshima and did choose to donate money to a people who's government blew them up and blamed the first country.

    and i love that they just had Millicent simmonds right before she hit it big with a quiet place, like she was just an extra in season one because they filmed at her school, but the creator liked her and so she got her to be in a 2 episode arc in season 3 even if at that point she was already getting big with a few movies.

Then Cyrus figuring out his identity and coming out as gay was a game changer to me cause 1, I never really saw different sexualities on TV so I was still learning about that stuff when I was younger, and 2, I am bisexual now and have also dealt with / currently dealing with coming out and accepting myself. I also remember an episode of Buffy where some kid said he couldn't see the board because of her hair and blamed her for failing his test or something and THE SCHOOL TOLD HER TO START STRAIGHTING IT- like that baffled me as a kid. Then I remember there was this episode I really liked I think they were celebrating Lunar New Year (Please correct me if I'm wrong) and I just remember them like setting off the lanterns into the sky with their wishes in them. It show just felt so real and stuff. I'm so glad I grew up with it.

    You should definitely check out the fosters next, it's such an interesting show, so much stuff happens and you truly feel like the fosters are a family.

      My fiancé and I just rewatched it and it holds up surprisingly well. It definitely veers into ABC family teen drama nonsense a lot, but the moms are some of the most real characters on TV.

      The fosters was gross, unrealistic and terrible acting

      Man the Fosters is such a great show to watch that surprisingly pushed the limits with risky subjects as:
      - Immigration
      - Pimps & Daddies
      - Transgender
      - School Shootings
      Say what you want but I genuinely liked Brandon, Mariana kind of sucks, Jesus is undeniably the best character if you move aside the blatant recast of actor, Jude’s pretty cool, but Callie she’s awesome.

    This show makes so much more sense knowing that 3/4ths of it got deleted, I also never got that her sister was her mom so the dots are all rlly connecting now

    They should've gone back and Christopher Plummer'd the dad/grandpa. That could totally fit in the budget...
    Also: Amy from Futurama was the mom/grandma.

    I miss this show so much. I'm no older than most of the cast members and i feel like i grew up with them.

    Cyrus being gay was honestly nice to see a character like that actually stick around for more than 8 seconds on a tv show back when this was airing

    10:15 They do that to their TV cartoons, too, like "Star Butterfly is our first bi character! Wait, no, Luz Noceda now is!"
