I like how he speaks about his character in the present tense like "Ethan is" instead of "Ethan was". He knows the show still lives on and doesn't try to desperately distance himself from it like a lot of child stars.
Ethan Craft was a great character. Usually the “good looking” popular jock in movies and shoes are jerks and/or bullies but Ethan is special in that he’s actually a nice guy who is kind of a dork but a lovable dork ☺️
I believe Ethan always fell into the best case scenarios/everything always worked out for him because he didn't have a cruel heart. He was a sweet guy.
I love how he talks about how good and relatable the show is and how he points out how it’s important that it’s from a girl’s perspective. He just seems like a cool, smart, sweet guy.
I loved Ethan Craft so much. He wasn't very bright but he was the cool popular guy who was friendly to everyone and not afraid to make a fool of himself. He's one of the few popular kid characters that actually seemed so sure of himself and what he was capable of.
There was also Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. I remember actually bringing a notebook in to take notes on how to survival middle school from it lol.
the the sad thing is is that there was supposed to be later seasons of Lizzie McGuire in high school after the movie so we would have seen what would it become of Lizzie and Gordo and Ethan and Kate relationships. However ABC cancelled the show before it was going to be taking place but yeah they were going to Move It from Disney to ABC and make it kind of like a Boys Meets World type of thing. It actually really kind of makes me sad cuz I wish that they would have kept it going. Because that show really honestly reminded me a lot of myself and helped me with a lot of things that was going on in my life and it was truly an Escape 2 at the same time because Lizzie did the things that I wish I would have had the guts to do. And I think that if they would have kind of the same thing with Ravens home with Lizzie McGuire I think it would be a big hit.
What an awesome guy! Still great hair! I always loved Lizzie McGuire when I was growing up, and the shampoo line has stuck with me forever. Believe it or not, it still pops in my head when I shampoo my own hair to this day LOL!
It's amazing that Terri Minsky managed to squeeze in YEARS of problems like family hardships, teenage girl issues/problems, all into 65 episodes. There were a lot more ground to cover during your teenage years. And I'm sad that they didn't continue with the series with them covering high school years, I think it would've been amazing.
Terri Minsky wrote a show called Andi Mack that is on Disney Channel. It's not as good as Lizzie McGuire because I found Lizzie McGuire to be more childlike and funny and Andi Mack is more serious. It could be boring for little kids but Andi Mack talks a lot about family hardships. Hardships they wouldn't dare to to use on Lizzie McGuire. It is just amazing how times change in only 20 years.
Keep these coming! I seriously cry everytime. 😭 my childhood💜 also I'm glad he mentioned that scene with Kate it's one of my favorite parts of the movie for sure.
Wow loved this. Lizzie McGuire was such an iconic character for me in middle school, and I love hearing from the minor characters as well as the more central ones. I think Ethan had more depth at times than people gave him credit for.
I absolutely LOVED Lizzie McGuire. Like he said in the interview, it felt so amazing knowing someone (Lizzie) was thinking and experiencing the same as us. But, I don't think I'd want a remake. This is the OG and just needs to stay!
That was nice and long, thank you Today! I am Lizzie McGuire's age in real life, graduated 8th grade with that movie.. So after celebrating the 70s and 80s with my older sister's -- and loving it! -- I think its time that we get our nostalgia, thank you for this fine programming.
Those dance moves were pretty great! I remember that scene. Lizzie McGuire was my all time favorite, it definitely got me through the awkward middle school years. Clayton seems really sweet and he's still got the best hair :)
OMG I didn't even watched Lizzie McGuire as a child, I just liked the movie, and now with the new adult series I just can say that I'm really excited! I really hope Lizzie McGuire continues to help us relate to the adult problems like she did with so many teens back then
Lizzie Mcguire and Even Stevens were what got me thru Middle School. They were my escape from reality and I really enjoyed watching them. Once in HS I didnt watch much tv, school was fun and I just enjoyed all HS. But I still watch these two shows from time to time they dont make shows like these anymore.
Was hot and handsome then, freaking hot and handsome now! 🥰☺ I remember coming home after school just so I could watch Lizzie McGuire and honestly I was looking forward to him more than anyone 😂
Yep, that's my favorite quote by Ethan in the Lizzie Mc Guire movie. I read the list lol. Love how he said you don't need math to be smart, going by your strengths is okay. And I agree, and everyone is different in learning.
So true! Lizzy was such a great role model. Not because she was perfect but because she always learned from her mistakes. I remember the episode when she said “I hate you” to her mom and felt so guilty about it. After that episode I vowed to my 8 year old self that I would never say that to either of my parents and I never did even when I wanted to. Thanks Lizzy!!! 💖
That picture day episode is iconic. Ever since that, every picture day, my friends and I would say “are you gonna do the Ethan look.” It was a running joke with us every year.
the shampoo thing could be true, i personally have to repeat with shampoo because i have a lot of hair but they could just want you to buy more so they put repeat on the bottle.
Well we're getting a reboot I hope Ethan can take an interest in Lizzie as adults. Adam Lamberg retired from acting I doubt he'll reprise his role as Gordo. Hopefully, Clayton will comeback. I'm sure he'll be down to reprise his role as Ethan.
Can't wait for the reboot!! Lizzie McGuire was my childhood LIFE!! And I still can watch all episodes. I hope Ethan comes back with Lizzie being 30. Maybe he can play her roommate or ends up with Miranda. Gah, so exciting!
That show taught me a lot when I was growing up. I was the same age as Lizzie’s character when it was still on air. It was such an incredible show. I’m still in love with it.
I can’t 😔😔😔 those golden days for us millennials are over! Life before the iPhone the generation who watched this are in the mid 20s or close as we speak. Early 2000s can we go back? “quick someone invent the dam time machine, take me with you I’ll pay u bitcoins 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Candice Dodd I just turned 26 like omg yes As told by ginger I remember that, even the wild thornberrries if that is what is called, Hey Arnold, rugrats, Cat and dog and Rocket Power lmaooooooooo. I would switch from nick to Disney to Cartoon Network.
The reading list and shampoo lines are so iconic. Another favorite of mine has always been when he says, "LizzieLizzieLizzie, mah day is _proCEEDing_ with fineness~" (from the episode where Lizzie tries to change herself to be more like Ethan's femme fatale type to get him to go to the Sadie Hawkins dance with her)
oooo he STILL got it. he should play flynn ryder in a rapunzel live action
Agreed
ohh yaa. I could definitely see that.
That’s exactly who I was just thinking he looked like!
So agree!
Piinkstar17 AGREEED SIS
He looks like a real life Disney Prince... Cartoon like in the best way
That is true def reminds me of a cartoon
He looks like the guy from Disney's Tangled...
Live action Tangled, make him Flynn
yessss
he look like disney hercules lol
He's still a dream boat- he speaks with such intelligence and awareness and it just makes him more attractive.
1GoldRunner what???
MY THOUGHT AS SOON AS I SAW HIM 😂
Which is the complete opposite of his character lmao
He's more attractive now.
Isn't it funny how he sounds like the smartest out of that cast
Lizzie McGuire was my childhood. I miss 2003!!!
I miss the early 2000 in general
Same! Those were the days! It's sad how kids/teens nowadays don't or ever will know how awesome this show was 😥😭
Yess i miss all the shows. I still watch lizzie mcguire daily lol on youtube
Dani Alexandria sameee
Lizzie McGuire was the best show as a kid
I like how he speaks about his character in the present tense like "Ethan is" instead of "Ethan was". He knows the show still lives on and doesn't try to desperately distance himself from it like a lot of child stars.
YAAS! 🙌🏼
Or he finna be in the reboot?! 😌😍❤
Ethan Craft was a great character. Usually the “good looking” popular jock in movies and shoes are jerks and/or bullies but Ethan is special in that he’s actually a nice guy who is kind of a dork but a lovable dork ☺️
Are we really that old? This hit me in the face like a brickwall...
Yes. I'll be 29 this october
@@angela3403 I just turned 31. In my mind I'm still 13 though hahahaha
Same im30 so gross and old
I'll be 29 in October too!!
I’ll be 27 and said the same thing 😂😭
I feel like this show helped raise me. Lizzie McGuire was da truth back then.
That's so raven too
Braceface too, lol I know it's a cartoon but it's similar to Lizzie Mcguire but cartoon version.
I would love to see a reunion or something
Unfortunately Lalaine "Miranda" got caught up into drugs.
@@xero925 that was forever ago and she already reunited with Hilary Duff in 2015.
@@xero925 In the past. But LaLaine recovered. LaLaine played Miranda. Check your facts before saying that
yeah me too
@@xero925 They don't necessarily need Miranda (Lalaine) for a reboot. Full house did a reboot that did not include the Olsen twins.
He looks like a real life Flynn Rider
Grace Anne He looks like Rhett from Good Mythical Morning
Ooohhh I see it
How dare you call him Flynn Ryder
I believe Ethan always fell into the best case scenarios/everything always worked out for him because he didn't have a cruel heart. He was a sweet guy.
❤ Of 🥇
Which sucks because real life is not like that at all.
@@gknee3 haha at first I read that as "love of medal" and was like...what? 😅😂
@@JoeTheWriter 😂 that's what I'm gonna refer to it as now. ❤️ of 🏅
That's why I loved him! He was friendly with everybody from gordo to tudgeman to Matt to Kate and everyone.
I love how he talks about how good and relatable the show is and how he points out how it’s important that it’s from a girl’s perspective. He just seems like a cool, smart, sweet guy.
He’s so sweet and loves what he was apart of. What a kind person
iocean92 perfectly put
Went to Pepperdine University with him! He was a nice guy.
BluGyal omg was he the ladies man?
Same.
awesome :)
Omg lucky you
Did he use slow curve?
Have you even made a dent in your reading list?
-I finished it.
You read 11 books?
-I mean I read the list!
I love that scene 😭🤣
Best line
The Maiden 😂😂😂😂😂
That would be me 😂
Lol 😂
“Have you even made a dent in your reading list?”
“I finished it.”
“You read 11 books?”
“I read the list!”
ICONIC 😂😂😂😂

I loved this show because there are always shows about high school but never middle school. Middle school was the WORST for me.
There was also Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. I remember actually bringing a notebook in to take notes on how to survival middle school from it lol.

After all these years, my crush on Ethan has remained strong. Like dang adult Ethan 😍😂🙌🏼❤️
He looks weird tho def a turn off he looked way better young
Lizzie McGuire was my childhood ❤️I am almost 27. Ugh I miss 2003 lol
We are the same age
It was everything
Favorite show on Disney ☺️
Same although I'm gonna turn 26 in September lol
Me too, girl, me too 😢😂
Same
I'm 22 so I missed this kind of.
What an awesome guy! Still great hair! I always loved Lizzie McGuire when I was growing up, and the shampoo line has stuck with me forever. Believe it or not, it still pops in my head when I shampoo my own hair to this day LOL!
Omg me too!
ME TOO
and I never repeat.
I wondered what ever happened to Clayton, it's nice seeing him again
He played water polo, I recall
If you want to watch him in something recent, go see Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner Party by Shipwrecked Comedy on TH-cam! Great series!
He played water polo at Pepperdine, and then for the US national team
I miss these teen shows without the teens having super powers or a super talent or from the future lol
V L hey Phil of the future was classic
HEY NOW!! Don't come for Phil.
HEY. You leave the 22nd century man out of this!
I know you ain’t coming for That’s So Raven
She just threw shade at That’s So Raven, Hannah Montana, and Phill of the Future. Smh 🤦🏻♀️
He could play a live action Hercules 😍
Giselle Yanez yessss
Most definitely
Yesss
Giselle Yanez yes!! Omg
Lmao Meghan trainer said the same thing on Snapchat
Literally the other day I was like...what happened to the guy from Lizzie McGuire and now I know and he looks great
Me too. I was thinking he got super fat and ugly. He turned out to be the opposite of both. Seems well red too
I love the actor. He's an intelligent and funny guy 😊
Can we get Gordo to do this now 😍
I didn't know HOW MUCH I needed that until now
Shira Blum I know right?! ❤️
The few people who looks good both young and old 😍
I am a 32 year old guy...and I MISS the Lizzie McGuire television show!!!...One of my favorites still.

We were OBSESSED with the spoon spaghetti scene back when we were young. We used to try to replicate it at lunch in school
Chris Lmfaoo I actually did try this. 😂😂😂
omg that shampoo line was like seared into my brain. i thought it was the funniest and most clever thing at the time ahaha
Still great hair
If I saw him today I would have never guessed he was on Lizzie McGuire.
This is making me so nostalgic and emotional 😭❤️ we had such a great childhood guys.
Still so gorgeous...... Talk about his sultry voice!
I remember watching Lizze McGuire and thinking the kids were so grown , I was a baby back then 😪
Bombay Lover same
Lizzie was really relatable, I still own the movie
Best analysis of a purported airhead. He may have given the character more depth than the writers intended. 😂
I miss Lizzie McGuire so much. You hit me right in my childhood.
Lizzie McGuire was everything!!😭😍 He’s still so good looking!!😋
Gaaaahhhh this hit me HAAARRRDDDD IN THE FEELS
Can we PLEASE get a reunion with the cast announcing a spin-off 🤧🙏🏼
Already happened. Hillary duff is making a spin-off we dont know when its going to come out
It'll be on Disney+
Reunion yes but cancelled 😢
Because of Disney 😠
I hope paramount+ will accept lizzie 🤞😣

I learnt so much from this show. Laughed and cried with the characters and for them. I feel old now...
I want interview of each cast member of Lizzie Mcguire if thats possible?....😶🙃
He got so tall on “Lizzie McGuire,” I wish they could have talked more about his height on the show.
Why?
Ngl I never thought he was THAT cute as a kid, but he’s reaaaaally cute as an adult!

He aged pretty well. I loved Lizzie McGuire.
Ethan Craft. My, how you’ve aged. 😍
He is so articulated! :3
My elementary school heart is SCREAMING! He’s still gorgeous.
What a lovely guy! Seems really genuine and down to earth and his voice is so soothing to listen to haha!
Ethan will forever be iconic!
I remember watching the movie in the movie theater. Epic 🙌🏽 including bring it on at the movie theater. That’s crazy 🥺🥺🥺🥺
To this day I always end all of my birthday/celebration wishes with "You rock, don't ever change" bc of him! Looool this show was golden, good times
Hahaha I wrote that in everyone’s yearbooks my senior year 😂 Iconic!
Omg this guy that I had a crush on in middle school wrote that in my yearbook 2 lol

I loved watching this because it actually made me realize that he wasn’t just a dumb jock but actually an amazing friend who got along with everyone!
This took me way back.
His character was so dumb🤦🏽♀️

If Disney makes a live action Hercules He should totally play him!
This is so cool, going back in time and talking about his character
remember when Ethan asked Frankie Muniz how he got out of the TV lool
Faye true jahahahahaha
