Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

drpage Before I get too ahead of myself, I am somebody very fluent with a lot of the scientific topics they ramble on about. This show has a lot of issues, both at trying to be something that is supposed to present Science and Tech as this super "cool" thing. -I was not once convinced any of the main cast either built, knew, or understood anything they were using. -The universe they live in seems to be full of completely stupid people so that their moderate levels of stupid seem smart. -The "geeky" jokes don't even make sense. For example, toward the end of the very first episode, they make a joke about their initials saying a^2, b^2, and c^2, then referencing the Pythagorean Theorem. The problem is they only care about the letters, not the actual meaning of that theorem that says to add a^2 and b^2 and it satisfies c^2 ONLY in certain circumstances. It only makes sense if you learned that the three number variables are a, b, and c and makes zero use of the actual joke. Once again, illustrating my point that either the writers are scientifically illiterate, or these girls don't know Maths well enough to know that pun didn't even make sense as a joke. -Another example (once again from the first episode), once they get inside one of the girl's secret lab area, one of the girls proceeds in a pretty wacky way to smash a can over one of the girl's (the one owning the lab) walking robot and somehow it works just fine. First, nobody scientific in mind at all would at one moment just take something they have never seen before and just do something that radical without properly analyzing it. -There are at least a few times where the "hacker" girl seems to have the magical ability to "hack" something within less than a few seconds, how is this even possible? Was that computer not even in sleep mode or something? -The characters come off as preppy teens that know nothing about the subjects they rattle off. How can somebody have an "app" that reads fingerprints while simultaneously not understand enough of what she is even explaining about other things. Either way, seems like a deliberate and sloppy mess. I'd think this would be a lot more fun if I could buy their characters, and two, not push such a heavy emphasis on "science and technology" when they just act as an ex machina to do things without any actual understanding of how they work. If the show used it as a vehicle and they were given some kind of super powers or super alien technology (and this was established from day 1), I'd be less skeptical. This show comes off a posers representation of Science and Tech (if its goal is to push that as a girl-positive thing). Not even a prodigy can do half the stuff these girls can do, but they exhibit ZERO personality that give me the hint these girls worked very very hard to understand even half they apparently do. It's kind of like watching monkeys play with toys some scientists gave them, it's really embarrassing as somebody that loves Science to see it presented in such a way.

Aria Clements We wanted to like this show. The premise sounds wonderful. Who wouldn't want a show about girls using STEM subject to solve crime? AND Danica McKeller is in it?! Sounds fabulous! So my daughter and I gave it a try.Unfortunately the show fails to deliver. The girls are astonishingly stupid. The scene that sticks out the most to me is how the social-media guru left location services on when she posted online about being with a prince they were protecting. Rather than this being a learning experience, it was hand-waved with an "oh no, his fangirls found us." At best, they're caricatures of smart girls, and that's not a good thing since it says smart girls are really stupid. My 6-year-old pointed that out.Danica isn't truly in the show. Her part is basically phoned in. She's only shown via video, and the quality is such that she can record her lines anywhere there's a black backdrop. I suspect she really does that.So we are on the hunt again for smart girls into STEM subjects.

imdb-8212 We just got Netflix and discovered this show. Oh - My - Gosh! This show is the perfect blend of quirky science-y teen girls that may not always fit in with the "cool kids" and the unending excitement of "Spy Kids" movies.Being late to the Netflix party we didn't even know this show existed until today. And we binge watched all three episodes! The story follows one trained spy who is placed in a school to perform one mission. She ends up making friends with three other girls in spite of her grating, left-brained and self-reliant attitude. Together they use their individual "nerdy" skills to save the world.If you're a 9-13 year old and you loved "Spy Kids" or "Shark Boy and Lava Girl" you'll love "Project MC2".

ccimmortalwitch So completely eye-rolling and groans at awful cliché characters and a plot that makes no sense. Smart, talented girls? Ha. More like, unintelligent, antisocial control freaks. The one girl who's supposed to be a spy is horrible at it. She literally turns around and says "Oh, yeah! I'm on a SUPER-CONFIDENTIAL mission so don't tell anyone, alright?" This might fit if it were some cheesy comedy, but it is supposed to be some neat, original series. How bland and unoriginal. Not to mention looking like some crappy skit right out of Disney Channel like Girl Meets World. Don't agree with me? Watch it for yourself. Now, some would say that this show is meant for kids. And I have to disagree. Kids are way too smart for this show.
