Reviews

mlongmire I have read several reviews on this show and quite frankly none of them are very good. Most give this show a fairly poor rating which, in my opinion, it doesn't deserve. The show is full of clichés, stereotypes and unoriginality but it works. It is the sort of programme which rarely gets you in a fit of hysterics but keeps you smiling the whole way through. The storyline is fun and although follows the same sort of road as most teen shows, boy meets girl but cant have her, there are some interesting turns and it is in no way as predictable as claimed by most. The acting is good and the characters are likable and, well for most, quite easy to empathise with, my personal favourite being the only Jew on Campus, Eli. The show may be same old but it is the kind of show you are happy to watch. It is the definition of easy watching TV with enough story line to keep you enticed, after watching the first episode I finished the season in less than 2 days. If anyone reads this review I hope you give the show a shot and I pray that the producers change their minds and renew the show, I want to see what happens with Joel and Christie. Thanks for reading
simon-petheram This isn't just a good show, its an amazing show. there was only ten episodes but at the moment i think its the best thing on tele, i would say its a American pie 25 years ago...but...saying that wont come near to how good it actually is. Being of that age seeing what they do in order to be accepted, i get that and can relate, i think the script and dialogue is amazing, the comedy is fantastic, but the moments when there is seriousness is just well done and of course along with i have to say a brilliant soundtrack. its sad that there is only one season, but at least it can finish on a high, i hear in America not that many people watched it... they missed out cus i would say its pretty popular over here in the UK. i don't know what else to write now hmmm Simon
jacobjhammer This show, in my opinion, is really quite good. Clearly if you don't take the show for what it is - a sometimes cheesy light comedy - you wont enjoy it. The plot is pretty standard. The main characters are pledges to a frat and we follow their adventures, but it's in the 80's. Pretty cool premise if you ask me. Stankowski is hilarious. His stoner character is way over done, but really really funny. The Mexican midget Hector is also totally hilarious, hopefully he sticks around. I hope this show makes it. When the other reviewer compared it to Greek but blows I totally disagree. This show is more for people who are less into the Greek system as portrayed by ABC FAMILY, and more into more racy humour (not that it's really that racy)
pai-rai I really thought a lot about how many stars I should give Glory Daze. The title is certainly clever, and when you read the plot of the series, it kind of reminds you of early seasons of the abc family show "Greek", which is outstanding. In comparison: This one blows! Most of the castmembers' performances are not credible, actions are poorly executed without any credible emotions. Of course there are some common stereotypes that are butchered by bad writing. I will overlook the time-slot and the station that broadcasts it, for I'm not watching live. The creators chose for this dramedy sitcom with multi-camera setup a diverse ensemble cast. You can do that, if the actors can actually act, and more importantly, act together. But I'm astonished of the crude amateur performances. Cinematographicly speaking, there's nothing special. It's pretty solid what you see. I would really love to praise this show, but as I wrote in the title, the idea of a couple college freshman rushing a fraternity is soo poorly realized. I am totally for a diverse cast, but in the mid-80s it was very rare or even non-existent that you find a group/clique with a Jewish guy, an Asian, a next-door whiteboy, a jock, a fanatic Christian, geek and whatnot altogether. It's just NOT believable. Sloppy, lukewarm written crap called dialogs fill the voids of music. Not vice versa. And the 80s?? Where are the 80s in this show. The pilot itself felt so forced that I only watched more to write this review to spare the readers the ocular pain that is caused by this show! They played like twenty 80s songs and mostly when it didn't fit! The wardrobe is bad, not 80s bad, just "we make a 80s show but don't really know how to cloth them, so we just give them some contemporary plaid shirts, blue jeans and some Nike sneakers." When you watch an 80s show or movie like Back To The Future, and then take a look at Glory Daze: You're gonna laugh/cry. It's ... bad. Unfortunately. They couldn't even imitate the presence of the 1980s! I'm still not sure if 3*** are too much, much I'm willing to overlook the fact that I personally hated it. Only thing good about it is that they didn't use laugh tracks, but that would have been a first time for a non-studio sitcom. It wouldn't have surprised me though. No recommendation from me, but if you think this review is too harsh and the viewers voted it with 6.something stars, do yourself a favor and watch it. Suit yourself, I warned you. Greetings, A.P.
