"Talk about tween TV, my daughter is going to be thrilled when I tell her this series, one of her absolute favorites, is coming to DVD. For a long time she was unaware of this show, but about 3 months ago she came home from school chattering about it. As a parent I needed to watch through an episode or two first. Finding it totally ok for her, she began watching it as regularly as she has watched any of the shows for her age group (turning 9 shortly). I guess it's goodbye iCarly and hello Derek in this here household.
Blended family (sort of a modern twist on my generation's Brady Bunch), the story is really not about Derek, but about his sister and the entire family who has to live 'life with Derek'.
Good family fun. It's already on "the list" as a holiday gift. And, when I found it it comes with a poster, I intellegently left that out of our conversation. She's going to be totally surprised by that little 'extra' indeed."
Great

"I love this show! This clearly is the best show on Disney channel here. It's the most realistic and most able to relate to. It doesn't have teens who are also pop stars, or has magical powers, or anything else that no other teenager can relate to. It has real problems that teens deal with. Plus Michael Seater is gorgeous! I'm so excited that this is coming to DVD, because it will be great to watch all the episodes in order, in high quality! Cant wait for the rest of the series to come out!"
Great show not just for teens.

"I watched this first last summer because my 13-year-old sister liked it. I immediatley was hooked on the show. I'm 21 and I thought it was great. It reminds me a lot of when I was in high school. The show to me is kind of like Lizzie McGuire meets the Brady Bunch. The cut-aways in the show are a lot like in Lizzie McGuire but the story of the family is a lot like Brady Bunch. I thought it'd be about Derek but it's more about Cassie's life (with Derek). It's for a little more mature children because of some of the things in the show. It's very funny and Ashley Leggat is really hot!"
