Show Summary

One Teen. One Dream. One Big Break. This live-action sitcom follows 15-year-old Sonny Munroe (Demi Lovato), who finds instant stardom when her self-produced Internet film catches the attention of some major Hollywood producers. Within days, Sonny and her mom are whisked from Wisconsin to Hollywood where Sonny is given the chance of a lifetime: a starring role in her favorite teen-sketch comedy series, So Random!. Sonny's bubbly personality quickly clashes with the self-centered Tawni Hart (Tiffany Thornton), who isn't too excited about the arrival of the show's newest cast member. Rounding out the cast of So Random! is the suave and confident Nico (Brandon Mychal Smith), his fearless sidekick Grady (Doug Brochu), and the original and quirky Zora (Allisyn Ashley Arm). In addition to her fellow castmates Sonny encounters heartthrob Chad Dylan Cooper (Sterling Knight), the star of the drama Makenzie Falls, which films on the adjacent stage. Sonny gets to know the egocentric Chad as she deals with the bitter rivalry between the casts of So Random! and Makenzie Falls. Can this hometown girl handle the trouble behind-the-scenes as well the struggles of stardom itself? Sonny with a Chance captures the effects of her fame on her home and work life and also includes sketches from the show-within-the-show.moreless

    It could have been better. The only character that annoys me is Sonny. The plots are lame, actors are ok, but characters. So glad that it ended. This show is meh.

  • Why did you get suicidal thoughts Demi?

    This show was pretty funny and probably the best thing Disney Channel ever came up with. (and probably the only thing they ever will) My brother evn thought this was funny and we have 2 completely diferent tastes of entertainment.

  • Got funnier as the show went on...

    The beginning of the show's premiere was weak but then it got funnier and better. Good morals like not judging a book by its cover were shown. One of the brightest moments (i think) in Demi Lovato's career. Love her friendship with Tawni except in the beginning where it reminds me of Victorious pilot Tori and Jade.

  • OK, another shit show from Disney...

    This is just another stupid excuse for a comedy show. Since 2005, Disney has had a huge downfall and other networks are slowly following them. Disney Channel used to be remembered for classic shows like Mickey and Minnie, Recess, Famous Five, Kim Possible and more but now it's become another tween channel with boring, generic shows as well as the same storylines and clich characters. Let's get to the details:



    Characters:

    To be honest, the characters are boring and one dimensional. You can't connect with anyone in particular and the acting skills are poor. So, here's a quick summary of each character in general:



    Sonny = The 'new girl' who tries too hard to fit in and is too happy and preppy.



    Tawni = The blonde 'diva' who only seems to care about fashion and herself but is nice in certain times.



    Nico = The only main black guy put in the show so Disney doesn't seem racist. He is a weird ass who tries too hard to be funny and is dumb as hell.



    Grady = A white version of Nico.



    Zora = A weird ass who takes crazy to a new level and needs mental help.



    Chad = A male version of Tawni who is supossedly Sonny's boyfriend in the later series. Why?



    The plots:

    The plots make no sense as usual and it's pretty much the same old clich thing which involves Sonny meddling and trying to change things, Tawni being her usual bitchy self, Zora being too loopy, Nico and Grady getting up to who knows what and Chad being a male version of Tawni.



    The jokes:

    The jokes are as stupid as hell and the laugh track pisses me off. And guess what? It's made by the stupid It's a Laugh Productions, who put in the laugh track every 5 seconds to make their low budget jokes funny. The jokes are the same thing over and over but changed.



    Summary/Rating:

    This should be cancelled and if you want to see a proper comedy, watch All That or the Amanda Show. Still, this isn't as bad as So Random, which is a cheap SWAC knockoff minus Demi Lovato.



    Characters = 0/10

    Plot = 0/10

    Jokes = 0/10
