People may like it, or people will love it and before we swap our bodies with our children, make sure they take a bath. This version of Freaky Friday the musical is one of the best, and it is based on a Broadway play in 2016. The musical numbers were fantastic and entirely different than the rest of the remakes from the past.  The previous movies were 1976 with Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster, 1995 Shelly Long and Gabby Hoffman, and 2003 Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan. They should make another one, and this time with guys in the leading roles, that would be more interesting to watch.

Heidi Blickenstaff

Heidi Blickenstaff is a Tony Award Nominee for Something Rotten (2015), and she had a recurring role as Katherine, the mother, in the stage version of Freaky Friday at the Signature Theater in Arlington, Virginia. She is fantastic in it.

Cozi Zuehlsdorff

Cozi Zuehlsdorf, she wrote the opening song to Freaky Friday at the beginning of the movie in the title sequence. She is known for Dolphin tale 1 & 2, (2011 & 2014) and she has been seen in numerous in commercials and tv shows. She is fantastic. I hope she gets a recurring role on TV where she can display her talent.  

Jason Maybaum

Jason Maybaum he is known for Raven’s Home on the Disney Channel as Levi.

Alex Désert

Alex Désert is best known in Station 19 on ABC, Alexander and the Terrible no good, Very Bad day, The Flash CW (2016 – 2017), and Invisible sister (2015)

Ricky He

Ricky He, he is known for Trial & Error (2018) NBC, and Blurt (2018)

Dara Rene

Dara Rene this is her first Disney movie, and she was fantastic.  

As you may know, the mother and her rebellious 16-year old daughter swap bodies through the magical power of a treasure hourglass. When it accidentally shatters, they must search for a matching hourglass in a game called The Hunt where high schoolers go hunting around the community to find treasures in the city. And possibly find the hourglass so they can return to their own bodies within one day. It’s entirely different from the previous movies, but the plot remains the same. An interesting take of the film.

Cast

So watch the musical version of Freaky Friday! It is currently playing on the Disney Channel.

13 Reason Why: Season one – The Review

sillykhan TV Reviews, TV Shows, Uncategorized , , , , , , ,

A teenage girl named Hannah Baker kills herself and leaves behind a set of cassette tapes which identify 13 reasons—and accordingly, 13 people—from her high school who she considers responsible for her suicide. The story is told over the course of 13 episodes, in flashbacks from Hannah’s point of view and from the present-day perspective of another student, Clay, who had a crush on Hannah and spends most of the show grappling with the secrets he learns on the tapes and confronting the people involved.

I have seen all of the episodes, and it is quite intriguing to watch, and it is worth seeing it again before the new season starts soon. The actors and the story are incredible and compelling and good looking too. It’s mesmerizing to watch happens next.

I am Frankie

sillykhan TV Reviews, TV Shows, Uncategorized , , , , , , ,

 

FRanke TV showI am Frankie is an America Show on Nickelodeon. An Argentine writer Marcella Citterio created the show and Catharina Ledeboer adapted to a whole new for an audience can relate too.  Catharina is credit for “Every Witch Way” (which completed four seasons) and “Talia in the Kitchen.”

“I Am Frankie” is the story of Frankie, an experimental android who navigates the perils and wonders of being a teenager. Frankie looks like any other girl but functions like the newest computer: complete with Internet access, extensive memory, and a hard disk. Frankie goes to school and no one but the members of her family knows her secret. She adapts to the real world quite well, despite having no feelings or emotions, but all that changes when she begins to experience family life, make friends and have a boyfriend.

The story is fantastic and the cast is amazing. This show is much fun to watch. Compare to other shows on Nick, this is so much better. Since The Thundermans is going to Leave Next year. There should give it a second season and broadcast in Nickelodeon USA.  It’s a great family show. If you haven’t seen I Am Frankie, I highly recommend that you watch it.

Kevin (Probably) Saves the World

sillykhan TV Reviews, TV Shows, Uncategorized , , , , , , , ,

 

Kevin World

This show is a quirky comedy. Jason Ritter is a genius to Kevin, his comedic talent is sure laughable and where does he get it from? From his father John Ritter who passed away in 2003.

Kevin Finn is struggling. Directionless and clueless self-serving, he seems to be drifting ever closer to total despair. With his life spiraling further and further out of control, he heads home to seek refuge with his widowed twin sister, Amy,( JoAnna Garcia Swisher) a university professor who works for Astrophysics and her young daughter, Reese(Chloe East), niece to Kevin, and a rebel teenager.

On his first night there, life takes an unexpected turn when he receives an unlikely celestial being named Yvette (Kimberly Hebert Gregory), a guardian or an angel who came from a meteorite crash. The Guardian helps Kevin and his family to have a stronger connection together. The Guardian has a mission for him: to save the world. It’s going to take a lot of trial and error, but maybe a bigger purpose is exactly what he’s needed all along. Kevin ex-girlfriend worked as a high school teacher.

This show reminds me of Highway to Heaven, but different. Everyone needs a guardian or angel to help with the tough times.

So Watch Kevin Probably Saves the World on ABC on Tuesday Night.
