Henry Danger (2014–2020)

Remember to Not Take It Too Seriously
14 December 2014
So I can admit that I'm an adult woman who watches Nickelodeon (I grew up on it, and I've found that watching kids shows and kid movies helps me ease my stress because, let's face it: a lot of the shows on t.v. aimed at adults feature topics/scenarios that are too "like real life" for a person like me who just wants to relax). Call me an immature escapist if you want, but isn't that what t.v. is for? Anyhow, I gave "Henry Danger" a try -- and let me say, I was surprised that it made me laugh so much. The first eppie that I watched was the birthday party episode. And this led to watching three more episodes on-demand (my faves so far are "Man Beast" and also the episode where a new "kid" joins the basketball team). I adore the kind of humor in "Henry Danger" -- there are many side-jokes that are aimed at an older crowd so parents/adults won't get left out. The jokes also include pop culture references.

I enjoy the whole adventure, superhero aspect of it all. I don't mind Piper -- she's supposed to be a brat and I find it funny. The show has a lot of potential, and so do the stars. I watched this show on a Saturday night (I'm handling some tough stuff in my life at the moment) and it helped me to cope because I felt like a kid again.

When it comes down to it, if you don't take this show too seriously and expect golden gold at every moment, it's a nice way to pass the time. Glad to see the show got picked up for more episodes.

If I could make any suggestions for the show, it would be to keep including the supporting characters (not just Charlotte, Piper,and Jasper) because it gives me a good "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" vibe, and also, please give Charlotte a last name, lol!
