It has been a week since the 2nd season finale, so let us look back at one of the top things the series has presented: Teen relationships.
It has been a week since the 2nd season finale, so let us look back at one of the top things the series has presented: Teen relationships.
What Girl Meets World started for the Disney Channel, Andi Mack picks up the baton. In its first season, it leads Disney away from the overtly silly characters and makes things more real. Topics which perhaps may have been taboo or for one-off episodes like discovering one’s homosexuality or unwed, possibly teenaged, pregnancy are made…
Andi Mack’s season finale leaves us with a lot of hope for better things. Mostly when it comes to the various relationships in the series.
Bex’s influence continues to change Andi into a more confident person. Leading her to make a decision no one would expect. Especially Jonah.
Home Away From Home left me teary eyed. For between Bex and CeCe, much less Bex and Andi, there is so much emotion. Far surpassing what we’ve ever seen on Disney Channel. Including Girl Meets World.
While Buffy’s storyline sticks with what we’re used to, Andi and Bex’s maintains the show’s more mature direction.
Being that Bowie has 16 years of spending time with Andi to catch up on, he gets a little overzealous. But he is, afterall, trying to be part of a family he didn’t know he had.
Bowie is firmly introduced and well, let’s just say that *fingers crossed* he can grow on us.
After perhaps one of the most devastating moments of Andi’s life, fate decides to give Andi a break and grant one of her dearest wishes.
As Buffy deals with some hair policing, Cyrus goes on a double date and Andi continues to wait for her dad to be revealed.
Andi keeps pushing to find out who her dad is but Bex remains cagey. Meanwhile, both Buffy and Cyrus may have a date in their future.
As the family dynamic continues to work itself out in Andi’s household, Buffy gets into sports and Cyrus is just the supportive best friend.
Andi Mack continues to buck the Disney trend in many ways as we continue to see Bex and Celia show that not all families resolve their issues within an episode, especially when they have been long simmering. But, when it comes to Amber, she is the usual basic nemesis.
After Girl Meets World ended, I figured I’d finally put an end to watching The Disney Channel. However, Google decided otherwise. First, it ruins the twist of this show then reveals Disney is breaking away from just focusing on Black or white leads and having a young Asian girl? Plus, there was talk of this…
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
