ANYONE
IN IT WE KNOW?
Christopher
Lloyd and the gang from S Club 8
WHAT’S
IT ABOUT THEN?
A
group of talented teens find
themselves invited to become
students at the top secret
training academy for the
performing arts called Avalon
Heights, meeting their eccentric
headmaster Professor Toone, it
is son obvious that fun and
musical adventure is high on the
agenda.
SO
IS IT ANY GOOD?
The
man behind S Club 7 (Simon Fuller) and their various popular teen TV
series didn’t let the fact that S Club were no more, when it was clear
that S Club’s members were outgrowing the band Fuller put together a
similar themed but younger sister band called S Club 8 and most of the
band feature in this funky new series; I Dream is very similar in style
and content to Miami 7 or any of the other S Club series with song and
dance routines well to the fore and a high emphasis on comedy. Appealing
right at the teen set (my 13 year old is already a convert) the show
touches on themes familiar to the audience, first love, friendship,
jealousy, peer pressure and so on; The kids are trendy and actually very
good, the added bonus for the adult viewers being of course the presence
of the legendary Christopher Lloyd (of Taxi and Back to the Future Fame)
as the headmaster of the school. A must for any 10-15 year old girl I
Dream proves that entertaining teen shows are still being made.
