LOVE IT. But should've stopped at season 2.

Why non American Disney shows turn out to be way better than American ones? This is the biggest case. A brilliant show, realistic, great cast and music. Shows actual teenagers lives and problems, natural acting, great talent by everyone on the cast. I would call it the best show in Disney since is the only one who showed reality as it is, the first two seasons were amazing. The movie? Perfect. But that should've been it.

First of all I love this show and I'm not gonna hate on it. But season 3 was just bad, senseless, and totally unnecesary. As a critic opinion. First of all, the plot of the show that we first knew was "Five friends with a dream of becoming a succesful band", and they totally ruined this plot on season 3 and made this season hard to watch. I can understand Saul (who plays Christian) and Federico (who plays Sam) wanted to become something else and push their careers to the next level, which is fine, and they had to leave Disney for it and therefore the show. But since they left, the "Five friends" plot (that was what the show is about from the beggining) just got destroyed giving way to probably the most forced and senseless storyline in the show, which destroyed not only the plot, but the realism and message of friendship I loved in the show, the reason why I started watching.

HOWEVER, not EVERYTHING in the third season is bad, the soundtrack was brilliant, just mentioning Welcome To Your Show and The Magic of Love as my favorite ones, and the Italian version of WTYS was beautiful, I personally think they should've made more songs in Italian, their original language, but yet I loved the soundtrack on season 3, and not only the original soundtrack. The songs they put in the background of s3 scenes were too well chosen and I'm sure if you listen to them you'll have the app Shazam next to you ready to find the songs.

With that said, the show isn't trash, the show isn't not worth the watch. I'm not telling you not to watch it. Is pretty good and funny, and if you're a teenager in high school I'm sure you'll feel identified with many of the situations these kids live in the first two seasons, just do what I'm gonna suggest and it'll be fine: Watch season 1 and 2, then the movie, and take the movie as the end of the show. Again it should've stopped there, or maybe they could've written a better season 3, and if Saul and Federico's leaving was unavoidable, they could've managed it better, I don't know, with face calls in the episodes, making them appear at the end of the season...but won't talk about it again.

This is a good show, a season doesn't ruin the whole thing, if you watch the first two seasons and then the movie and you stop there, that'll be fine.

First season was great only

I liked the first season, it was so clean and wonderful, the first Disney show I watched that didn't put their efforts on fashionable clothes that shows more than they cover. The scenario was pretty good and the kisses were few and reasonable,and I'm still talking about Season 1. The soundtrack was awesome and very good. The story is cute and proper for kids on their age.

But when season 2 came out, I just hated it! The soundtrack became so bad, and kisses were plenty and skirts became shorter. Call me conservative, but I don't like this stuff in children's shows.

There's another point regarding the songs, they were all not original! Why they used other songs music? Ironically they accused someone in the show that she stole her song, while all of their songs were actually stolen from other songs (maybe they have brought the rights, but I still call it stealing). Season 3 also more worse than the second. If these two seasons were not there, I would rate the show 8/10.
