True Jackson, VP/The Troop Review 12/12
About 2 hours before True Jackson started I realized I had not watched any of my Christmas movies yet this year, so I popped in Miracle on 34th Street. Coincidentally, the True Jackson episode featured the Macy Parade. And a game show with a dunce cap? I can tell you where they got that idea: Win Ben Stein's Money.
Well I have a confession to make. Before watching True Jackson I was mentally preparing to write a bad review of it but I can't. It was great. I know I have no logical reason to dislike the show. Let's just say I don't hate it but I could do without it if they would use the extra time for something better like the mermaids. I no you can't run a show that does not get good ratings, but discontinuing that show is a painful loss to me.
As for The Troop, I stand by what I said before. That show is garbage. It is unoriginal. It is a Ghostbusters wannabe. I do not even see how the title of the shoe fits. But I noticed an interesting connection. The show is in the same time slot that the mermaids use to be in. The sister on the troop is named Phoebe and Phoebe Tonkin in one of the mermaids. Did I mention I missed the mermaids? How about dumping THIS show for the mermaids.
At least they could dump True Jackson and the Troop for Victorious and Big Time Rush, even if Erin Sanders ends up being my only reason I care for the latter show.

iQuit iCarly review
Well this movie did just what it needed to do: top iFight Shelby Marx. And now there is yet another movie coming up (iSaved Your Life). As for the debate of who Freddie will end up with, I still think it will be Carly and there is no way the writers can get out of it at this point. I noticed more Zoey 101 connections such as the mention of Joe Catania's name and another connection that has slipped my my mind.
With the way plots are intensifying and normalcy ending (i.e. Freddie's mother promising to no longer be overprotective) I have a sneaky suspicion that this show has entered its final stages and they are now winding it down to make room for Victorious and Big Time Rush. Not to mention The Troop, which in my opinion has no business even being on the air. And I do not know where True Jackson, VP is headed but I would love to see it out of the way.
Not to Criticize iCarly at all (for it is unarguably an awesome show), I have always thought of it as the entertainment to tied me over until Victoria's show starts. I have said it once and I will say it again that Zoey 101 is my favorite show ever and my only regret is not discovering it until it was all reruns. I am rooting for my champion Victoria Justice to be the one to continue the legacy of Zoey 101 and carry Nickelodeon's torch.
