  • Poor Jackson.

    This wasn't one of my favourite episodes. I found it quite boring actually.



    Jackson and Miley's grandmother comes to visit but she gives all of her attention to Jackson instead of Miley, something which Miley isn't too happy about. I won't give out any spoilers for the episode; watch it yourself.



    I can honestly say though, I felt sympathy towards Miley's brother. Miley's self-centered attitude can really annoy one.



  • decent episode

    This was about miley feeling like she doesn't get enough attention from her grand mother. Her grand mother tells her in the end that the reason why she shows Jackson more attention is because of her being hannah montana she gets almost all the attention and he supports her. But miley never notices that she needs to be there more for Jackson. So Jackson was happy when they left early on the queen of england and went on to his volleyball game. Though they were caught and had to run away pretty fast. All in all it was an decent episode.

    Robbie's mom, the kids' Mamaw, visits. Hannah is set to sing for the queen of England, but she is late, and Jackson has a volleyball match he wants to be in. Mamaw wants to go there and this makes Miley feel that Mamaw likes Jackson more than her. Is this true and if so will this damage the family?



    It was alright, like the last one it was also kind of boring. Not really many laughs at all, but I did like Jackson's plot a little so that helps the grade a little. My grade is a low B. Good
  • An episode that really was funny, but the Jackson story was better than the Miley story.

    With her grandmother is paying a visit, Miley is keen to gain her support and congratulations, especially as she is about to perform for her royal highness, the Queen of England! However, Miley discovers that it is an awful feeling when she is being ignored. We soon learn that the reason her grandmother is paying such special attention to Jackson is because she sees that he is often left out in the cold, with all the attention being lavished on Hannah Montana. Since she was a professional volleyball player back in the 1960's, she takes up Jackson's forthcoming final as a personal hobby and spends days helping him, only to discover his parter has become sick at the last possible moment.

    In the meantime, Miley, who realizes just how much she and her dad need to be there for her brother, blows off the Queen, and rushes to the school gym. There, Jackson has found a novel substitute in the form of his grandmother! Who proceeds to thrash the opposition with him. However, it appears that Miley will steal the show again from Jackson's victory, as she forgets to remove her disguise and enters the gym as Hannah Montana, causing a mob to chase her from the building. There are no hard feelings, though, when the siblings sit side-by-side and Jackson tells Miley that he isn't angry at her - he's amazed that she and his dad blew off the Queen to be there for him! Then the two share a touching moment.

    Mamaw comes to town and spends most of her time with Jackson, which makes Miley jelous. Hannah has to play for the queen of England and her granddaughter. I didn't really like the story in this episode. I especially didn't like the singing for the queen. It was cheesy and unrealistic. It was funny to see Mamaw and Robbie together. I also liked the idea of teaching Miley that she gets all of the attention and her mamaw showed her how Jackson feels all of the time by ignoring her. Overall, ok espisode. It had some funny moments and some good character development.
  • A halarious and funny episode to the season..

    This episode was probably my least favourite episode. It was nothing like the other episodes in the series. The series in General in amazing, but this episode hurt to watch. I felt that it seemed a little disrespectful to the Queen of England by the was her character and her granddaughter were portrayed. Also, I feel that the comedy level of this episode was not very good. Other episodes make me laugh a lot, but this episode felt kind of boring. The story line was not great. I feel that the episode is bearable, but it is not an episode that I would want to see very many times.

    Miley and Jackson's granny comes to visit and Miley feels left out because she pays more attention to Jackson. One thing I liked about this episode was that it revealed how Jackson feels about his sister being Hannah. It was funny when Miley half-performed for the Queen and the Queen said "Have we just been Punk'd". I remember the lady who plays the granny from some tv show or movie but I can't think of it. When Jackson and Ma Maw played in the volleyball tournament it was a great moment but when he won Hannah Montana stole the show. Miely and Jackson actually had a heart to heart, that was kinda awkward. This was a great episode overall.
  • This is one of my favorite Hannah Montana episodes.

    I have seen this episode on multiple occasions now and it has yet to get old. I have enjoyed watching it just as much each view. The episodes is very funny and also touching. Vicki Lawrence guest stars as Miley's grandma and she is brilliantly hilarious. One of the funniest people in showbiz. It is a shame that most of the young fan base of Hannah Montana will not even recognize her from her famous work on The Carol Burnett Show and Mama's Family. Hannah blowing off the Queen for Jackson is touching and really demonstrate how much she loves her brother. Overall, this is a solid episode that the whole family can enjoy.
  • I love this episode!

    Miley and Jackson\'s grandma (Mamaw) comes for a visit. Miley feels like Mamaw gives Jackson more attention than Miley. Mamaw gives Jackson a lucky wristband for his volleyball game and she gives Miley waxy airplane headphones. Miley gets to sing for the Queen of England on the same day as Jackson\'s volleyball game, but the Queen is late so Jackson leaves for his volleyball game early. When Mamaw finds out Jackson left for his game, she left to be there for him. Before she left Miley confronted her about how she didn\'t feel like Mamaw cared about her and Mamaw said she just gives Jackson more attention because he gets left out because of the Hannah Montana thing. Jackson\'s partner in volleyball was sick so he was going to have to forfit, but Mamaw filled in. Miley and her dad rushed the singing thing with the queen to be there for Jackson.

    The Queen of England and her granddaughter are coming to town. Miley is requested to perform for the queen. Miley's grandmother comes for a visit. Everything is fine until Miley realizes that her grandmother pays more attention for Jackson. Miley tries hard to win her grandmother's affection. This is a really funny episode. It provides the same excitement that comes with the other Hannah episodes. Miley's search for her grandma's attention is so funny. The story is so fun to watch. Miley and the other cast are just as funny. It's a fun episode, the light hearted drama really does the job.
  • It\'s a big week, Hannah Montana to preform for theQueen.Jackson in his school volleyball game +her grandma\'s in town.When her grandma devotes herself to helping Jackson prepare for his big match Miley's feels like her grandma loves Jackson morethan her.

    I think this episode is very interesting and funny.i think it is very good.My fave bit is the ending.I like it because it is a very happy ending.I love happy endings.Jackson had won the championchips and his grandmother helped him to win it so they can both feel happy about it.Miley had sppeded up her performance to the queen so she could come and watch Jackson play volleyball.And in the end they were glad that they were brother and sister.I couldn\'t have made it more happier myself.I love that episode.What do you think of it.How would you rate the episode?

    i didnt like the episode this much i think it was ok it was kind of boring hannah/miley made it little funnier it didnt appeal to me i think it was aliright she (grandma) was also funny. but it got annoying. she also was kinda boring i mean like i thought she would be like most granmas like uptight and stuff. she was kindof mean because jackson does get enough attention and her grandma gave her air plane headfones! Yeah! and jackson gets a very special wristband? yeah roght it wasnt as it thought it would be ok i have to say three more words nm ok

    I didn't like the grandma she was kinda weird! :) I gave this episode a 5.0 it was OK but it was not my favorite. And again Oliver got hurt. I have to admit it was funny, but it looked painful. The only part I really liked was when Miley preformed for the queen of england. Oh and I liked the part when Miley got those airplane head phones with the ear wax and gray hair still on them.

    I loved this episode. It was really funny. The grandma is like athletic and funny. Also, Jackson gets more attention then miley which is very different than usual. Because in this episode you find out how he really feels. Him and The grandma win the tournament. Also, when hannah montana was singing for the queen she fastened up the pace with that southern song. That was really funny. And the queen was like (SOMEBODY) I think we've been pucked or something. Haha that was funny. And then when miley goes to the tournament she comes as hannah montana and tries to hide under the bleachers but ends up getting spotted anyway lol. RECOMMENDED ! :)

    this is a very funny episode. miley's grandma comes to visit and treats her like she is invisible.but she really just gives jackson alot more attention than she does miley because grandma feels that jackson never gets enough attention since"the whole family revolves around hannah montana."grandma told miley this, and she felt really bad that she was ruining jackson's life,so she blew off the queen of england to watch jackson in his volleyball game.the funny part was when miley and her dad go to see the queen, and miley's dad says " my goodness that woman makes a snail look like a cheeta!"when the queen is walking up the aisle.then miley sings really fast and skips a bunch of words. then she says,"guitar solo!" and her dad plays one chord on his guitar.then they go to jackson's game. i really like this episode.
  • I liked the episode and I think it speaks for the people in families and such that are like shaddows.

    This episode was a pretty good episode that I thought had a good message. Even though I am a only child, I know that in some families children get left out. They could not have potrayed this any better in this episode. The only difference is that Miley is a \\\"star\\\". Thsi episode also taut a lesson that you should not assume. I say this because when Grandma was giving Miley second class attention, Miley thought it was because she hatted her. Grandma was actualy doing it because Miley\\\'s brother never gets attention like she does. I really like this episode and I hope you did too.

    This episode is my favorite by far. It shows a side of Jackson we've never seen and I'm sooooo very glad I got to see that side of him. And the conversations between Miley and him are so good, especially the second one. I say there should be more episodes like this.

    I've seen this episode many times, and I think it's very meaningful as well as entertaining. First of all, everyone watching learns a valeuble lesson about everybody having a chance to shine. Mamaw is hilarious, and the queen is also. The show gets to my emotions, and I love Hannah Montana! It is a wonderful comedy and shows life lessons right through the episodes. Good job Disney Channel for making a great episode!

    This episode is my personal favorite! Miley and Jackson actually talk about their feelings with the whole Hannah Montana business, and Miley learns that Mammaw really DOES care about both of her grandkids. There are TONS of laughs (mostly because Mammaw is REALLY funny!) such as Mammaw getting after Robbie for eating too much, and Oliver running the soundboard at the volleyball game. Definitely see this one! It's absolutely awesome!
  • Mileys Mamaw comes to visit at the same time Hannah Montana is suppose to meet the queen, but Miley gets upset when Mamaw is only paying attention to Jackson. Mamaw explains to Miley that shes only giving Jackson all her attention because Miley as Hannah

    This episode is really funny. I like the part at the end where Mamaw and the Queen dancing to Dance Dance Revolution. I also thought it was funny when Simon said ( The queen is being delayed, her granddaughter tried to wash down a chili dog and cheese fries with a grape slushy producing a royal and colorful upchuck). My favorite part was when Hannah Montana tried to rush her performance with the queen. I thought this episdoe is just as great as the first five episodes and the seventh episode were and I hope all future episdoes are just as good.
  • This episode features a family issue between Hannah/Miley, Jackson, Mamaw and Robbie. This episdode has Hannah performing "The Other Side of Me" for the Queen's grandaughter. It also has Jackson's championship volleyball game scheduled on thes ame day. Wi

    If you are a borderline movie watcher, then this episode is one of the more serious ones. If you liked She's a Supersneak, then this episode takes on a similar serious persona while maintaining a teenage sense and a teenage mind. But this episode is different. We learn how Jackson feels about his life as Hannah Montana's brother and how he feels. We see how Miley feels when her grandmother neglects her and pays attention to Jackson. This episode is very sweet. Jackson and Miley even have a special moment at the end where they both are happy for each other. As with all Disney shows, everythings turns out well in the end.
  • In this episode, Miley\\\'s grandma comes for a visit to Malibu. Miley also gets to perform her new song in front of the Queen of England. When Miley tries to impress grandma, because grandma is only interested in hanging out with Miley\\\'s brother. I do

    I went and saw the taping for this episode. Vicky Lawrence stars as Miley\\\'s grandma. I thought this episode was special because Vicky Lawrence stars in it and i like her. Miley also gets to sing her new song. Vicky Lawrence\\\'s character was always criticizing her son for being fat.
