    I didn't watch many of the episodes because Disney Channel didn't air many that I could caught on television. But the episodes I was able to watch on television was good. Even though the series ended I glad I watch this wonderful series. To any kids or teenagers who like Disney Channel might like this series, that if it still airing episodes on the channel. Its funny, emotional and what could be real issues for people. Good luck to those who go looking for this series. And, I hope you enjoy this series because it is good for kids and teenagers.moreless

    At first when I saw this show I found it very boring but as it went on I found it to be more interesting due to me liking Derek funny ways of solving things are creating trouble. I also like the fued between to the two main characters. At times though i find Casey to be very annoying due to the stereotypical role she plays but and times it can be funny how she panics over the weirdest of things. But it annoys me how she blames Derek or someone when something doesn't go perfect. It's ok to stive for perfection but don't always expect it to happen. Anyway i think it's an ok show for it's age group.

    9/10 from memoreless

    I don't get how people like this show. A blended family plus a six yr old equals BOREDOM! When I watched it, I especially couldn't stand the poorly composed theme song. My least favorite characters are Derek and Marti. Derek is just a jerk, while Marti gets on my nerves, especially when she ate a lot of that artificial purple cake in that wedding episode. Casey is uptight and just....not good! And why do they call their parents by their first names? That's just disrespectful AND annoying. A modernized Brady Bunch is NOT my thing. This kind of thing would have Walt Disney rotting faster in his grave. Point made.moreless

    Words cannot--could not describe how horrible this Canadian import was. So incredibly annoying were the main cast, especially Casey and Derek, that I've come up with something akin to Jump the Shark because of it. Introducing: Caseying/Derekking (v): to make siblings in a show as annoying and selfishly whiny as possible, with the intended (or unintended) effect of driving viewers away from the show because the character has no personality other than that. Named after: Casey and Derek from Life With Derek. The family just grated on my nerves! Casey was a selfish brat, Derek was--a slob and a disgrace to all big brothers everywhere, Marti was so unbelievably irritating I wondered why she didn't hang out with D.W and Caillou, especially in the artificial cake episode! Everything just seemed so fake, and the parents/little brother were flat as cardboard. Casey's friend bugged the heck out of me too...maybe her voice did it for me? I dunno...

    ...but I was glad this Canadian monstrocity was over.moreless
