I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
... View MoreThis is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
... View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

... View MoreThe Buzz On Maggie is a refreshing return to cartoons that has been missing for a while. It's funny for children, but has references and nuances that adults will catch - just like Bugs Bunny did! It seems to me that the cast and crew went into this with the idea that they only got one shot (or one season) so let's just go way out full blast - and IT WORKS! Children need more cartoons of a lighter fare! ADULTS DO TOO! Maggie's high jinx are akin to Cartman from South Park, but with less edge. She also puts me in the mind of Disney's "Pepper Ann", which was yet another wonderful cartoon geared more towards teens. I really hope that in the near future Disney puts some of their cartoons on DVD. I would buy them and I'm nearly 40 years old. I want to keep a youngness to myself and they are a WONDERFUL break from real life without violence and sexual innuendo!
... View MoreOK why bother making another crappy show we already had CatDog?The jokes,well Maggie should;vie went on My Gym Partner's a Monkey and just tell their gross jokes there.The School Insects,well I just want to rip my eyes out at the sight of them!Sure the concept of the show might sound great on paper,but not as an actual show.Disney started out with Weekenders,then somehow in 2005,4kids turned Disney Channel into an actuals crap fest.Plus it's also a Homestar Runner ripoff,just give her jobs at a crappy School.Plus every episode involves some form of gross humor that makes you want to throw up.If they tried to make it like Kirby: Right Back at Ya!,they didn't do a very good job.And the plots,monkeys could make better plots than that!the humor that isn't meant for kids which makes the series otherwise controversial.It's an all around immature series and provides plenty of Teenage stereotypes(Maggie being a "geek",the Dumb-Beetels being "totally cool",and the jocks beating up on smaller kids).I think the crude humor was better when it was in a show called "Courage the Cowardly Dog" that's insanely funny.No doubt the worst 4kids show ever made(even though it's not that much of an anime)And oh look,now these idiots from CatDog have made 4kids go down the tubes and fall apart piece by painful piece.Shows like this are the reasons why I rarely watch Nickelodeon & Cartoon Network .I can see why this has such bad ratings. Who must'vie been on drugs when he put his voice CatDog & The Buzz on Maggie? Now if it's going to have a new season on Disney Channel,the last thing we need is more shows that give Nicktoons Network, Disney Channel, & CN a chance to animate all 4kids TV classics.Now we have to worry about a season that I heard 4kids end. might be planning,but I doubt it will sell well.Worst show put in development,Nuff said.And a few other things:flash?Sure not many shows have gotten canned that these days,it's nice to try something else over hand drawn and computer animation,but we are in 2007,not 1967.
... View MoreOK you know what? You need to chill. You're saying, "this show is horrible!!" And the only proof you have is the fact that your favorite shows got taken off because of it. Are you even judging the actual shows content? And if you flip the channel to anything else but Zoey101 or Naturally Sadie or whatever, then how on earth do you know whether it's bad or good? Personally, I think the shows are interesting. And Life with Derek is like the best show I've ever watched. And they have a lot of viewers because all of my friends and all f the kids I've ever babysitted watch it also. So if you're going to put the shows down, at least use an example OK?
... View MoreWhen they first announced that "The Buzz on Maggie" was going to be on Disney Channel, I knew that it was just going to be another idiotic and pointless crap show.Then I watched it (because nothing else was on) last October 2005.And you know what? I was right.It was boring, senseless, stupid and totally un-funny. First of all, I agree with a lot of the other people who commented on this show - who in the heck would want to watch a show about FLIES?! One word: NASTY!!! Of course, even if it was a cute animal like dogs or cats, it'd still be unworthy and idiotic. Second, Disney Channel just doesn't need shows like this. It kills their network. I say, "Disney Channel, put this crappy show where it belongs - in the dang trash, along with Dave the Barbarian ("The Buzz on Maggie" was worse than THAT, even!!!!!)"
