Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

elmtree1712 My Parents Are Aliens. Is it the best children's TV program of children's television today? This show has been running for seven series' so far and has been commissioned for at least another one. Most shows don't even make it by three, which highlights the strength that this show has. The characters are complex, each with varying backgrounds and good/bad qualities which make them easy to empathise with and over the past few years, we've grown to love each and every one of them. So it was a massive shock when the last episode of Aliens as we know it was broadcast on Wednesday and many a comment on this 'ending' have been voiced over the last 48 hours. Everything, from what I can gather, will be all change apart from the formation for this show: Brian and Sophie who will be continued onto the next era of Aliens. Over the years, Tony Gardner and Carla Mendonca/Barbara Durkin have brought the characters of Brian and Sophie Johnson to life and for those two to have the difficult task of maintaining the high standards set by the current actors is a challenge, but I'm sure they'll pull it off magnificently. For anyone out there reading this who has never watched the program, I would urge you all to give it a shot. The canned laughter track introduced in Series 4 is the only downfall of this piece of comedy genius and for old and young people alike, it's certainly not a waste of half an hour once or twice a week. To argue the point against this though is the introduction of the new children. I have nothing against the actors or the characters of Harry and CJ but to introduce new children so late in the game was always going to have its risks. CJ was too much of a Josh copycat and Harry was almost identical to Mel, personality wise. And to attempt to replace a much loved element of the show such as the lovely Mel was a bad mistake. However, the high standards of the show didn't slip and Harry and CJ gradually became part of the whole routine. My Parents Are Aliens Series 8 should be broadcast around about this time next year and previous series' are being continually repeated on Nickelodeon and CiTV, so if I've convinced anyone with this review then please do watch it, you wont regret it. And now all there's left to say is good luck to those staying, good bye to those leaving and welcome to those arriving. We've been with you every step of the way and intend to keep following, because you're all stars!

McGowan_M In response to the members who say they're 14 & 16 respectively and STILL watch the show, I'm 35 and I love it as well. Probably makes a real saddo.I normally get home from work about 4.30 in the afternoon just as this is starting and after a lousy day at work, it's nice to have something ridiculous to laugh at before I switch over to BBC2 and endure the (frequently) humiliating misery that is 'The Weakest Link'.I don't watch a huge amount of TV but this is compulsive viewing and I recommend it to anybody, irrespective of age. The cast are great, the story lines are always funny and all 5 of the main characters are believable, likable individuals.Long may this show continue.

HobbitRadclyffe While most shows on after school are either silly game shows, soppy teen dramas or unfunny cartoons- 'My Parents Are Aliens' is a real gem! Despite being 14, I still love this show and will, on occasion, laugh out loud at the jokes- something which I don't do very often while watching the kiddies telly. The family on their own make for an excellent show, but what really makes this worth watching are their friends namely Trent and Pete, two good looking lads who deserve more screen time! All in all, this is a really good programme- spoiled only by the added laughter track during the later episodes. The show is usually seen on CITV at around 4:30-5:00, although I am unsure of the days.

KeithWarwickOnline What can I say? It's refreshing, interesting and engaging. You can build up empathy for the main characters without being too deep about it. First class writing with wit and humour and a fantastic talented cast, as well as the unseen crew being brilliant too! Definately one to watch :D
