Ready or not Can't wait another day

Everything's better now
When we go
Ready or not.

• Who would you rather have as a friend?

  Amanda or Busy? I'd say Busy. She was always my favorite and always seemed like a much better friend then whiny, boy-crazed Amanda. There are only a few episodes out of all 5 seasons where I actually agreed with Amanda.

  As a long time fan of this awesome Canadian show, I have often wondered what happned to its two stars. I know that the actress who played Amanda went on to do other acting thigs but I have never heard anything about what happened to Lani, who played Busy. Did she ever do anything else in the acting world, or did she just go on to live a normal life somewhere in Canada? I would love to know, if anyone knows, please post. Thanks! less «

  9 Superb

  Way better than the stuff that is now on TV for kids. hide « show »

  Who needed parents when you had shows like this when you were younger? You'd learn everything from shows like this, and they weren't afraid to address topics like sex, homosexuality, anorexia, drinking, whatever it is this show had it. TV shows today that are aimed at kids are terrible. They act like the only things teenagers go through is boys and friend trouble when there is so much more than that. This show tackled the issues of peer pressure in a very tasteful way and in my opinion Ready Or Not is a lot better than the more popular Degrassi. Very underrated and they should air this on more channels. I feel bad for kids today, they have really missed out.

  Ready or Not is a great show for kids because it shows two girls the age of the viewers dealing with problems many viewers have faced. hide « show »

  Ready or Not was an awesome show that allowed young viewers (including myself) an example of two best friends, Laura Bertram (Amanda) and Lani Billar (Busy), facing many of the issues that young teens face nowadays. As we watched them grow up through the years we got a chance to realize how much people change and therefore could properly appreciate how life's challenges shape who we are as people. I still watch this show almost every day - it comes on BBCKIDS (satellite channel 552) at 8:00 PM (in Toronto at least... Iunno about other places). It's so weird to think that this show was filmed in the early 90's because now, more than 10 years later, it's still being broadcasted and people (me atleast) still watch it ^_^. I can't believe Amanda's actress is 29 now - she's so pretty! I wish the shows they make nowadays could be as heartwarming as this show. Overall: this show rocks and should be aired 4EVER! =D

  I'm worried I'll never see this show again. hide « show »

  Ready or Not is a great show. I used to watch the reruns on YTV, but it got cancelled now. I like how this show is realistic, and the characters deal with realistic things such as growing up, friendship, family issues, peer pressure, boys, ect.
  
  If a DVD ever comes out, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

  9.7 Superb

  The best Canadian pre-teen/teen show of the 90's ever. It's about two girls who were best friends forever since they were little. They have a lot of issues like growing up, divorce, families, dating, friends, cliques, school, and peer pressure. hide « show »

  I love this show very much. I was a fan of the show for a long time. I was twelve years old, when the show started. I was sixteen, when the show ended. One of my favorite characters are Amanda Zimm (the spunky boy-crazy JAP) and Elizabeth "Busy" Ramone (the Italian-American Catholic girl and a tomboy). They come from differen backgrounds, Amanda and Busy remain good friends since childhood. During the show's 5 year run, the girls went from the seventh grade through the ninth grade. On the show's series finale where Amanda Zimm has to move to the west coast. Her best friend, Busy Ramone stays back. They will be BFF (Best Friends Forever). They'll maybe write to each other and call each other on the phone. I hope they will be a tv movie reunion. I used to watch it when it was reruning on Global TV years ago. It's now reruning on YTV.

  9.2 Superb

  Great Canadian Series hide « show »

  This is a Canadian show about two girls who have to face the hardships about teen life. Crushes, fear, humiliation, suffering and friendship. Amanda is kind of the naive character who's parrents are divorced, while Busy is kind of like a tomboy character. This is one of my all time favorite shows on Y.T.V. I'm so glad that the brought it back... :( But only on Sundays. Anyone can watch this. Even me (I'm a Boy). I started watching this since I was ten years old. My favorite episode is the one where Amanda gets locked in the store for the night and busy has to pick her up. Well that's my review. So long my friends until next time.
