Can we all just agree that Dodie is the literal worst?
Definitely the worst. 😡
It’s true
Shes exactly like her mother.
She keeps selling out her friends to be popular unlike Ginger who knows what really matters.
Yeah and sadly she stayed friends with her even into adulthood. I would have much rathred her dump her and become friends with Courtney after she lost everything.
I like how Courtney was not the cliche stereotype of mean rich girl she was actually nice and down to earth. She seems to like ginger
Yeah it seemed like she actually wanted to get to know Ginger
Yeah but she was brainwashed by Miranda 😭
She was my favorite behind Ginger
She was a better friend to Ginger than Dodie or Macy. Especially Dodie.
Fun Fact: I actually did some digging and found out that because of Courtney's friendliness and admiration for Ginger it was revealed that Courtney actually had secret romantic feelings for Ginger. There was supposed to be an episode about Courtney confessing her feelings to Ginger ,but Nickelodeon didn't wanna cause controversy so they scrapped the idea.
I've never like Dodie. I always felt like she's desperate to get popular and was jealous of ginger.
I don’t know I think dodie just wishes she could be cool like Courtney and at the same time be a good person like ginger we all wish we could be something we’re not every now and then
She was. She’s not even a decent person. It barely takes any effort to be decent. Ginger should have ditched her after the boyfriend breakup plot.
Same.
Also there’s an episode no one ever talks about and its the one where dodies mom becomes a teacher and tries to get along with the cool girls and this freaks dodie out and she herd from her father that her mom was just like her when she was a teenager and this gave dodie a wake up call realizing that she shouldn’t try to be popular but instead try to be herself
her new goal is to be in the cheerleading squad because she feels being a cheerleader is her calling
Dodie is loud and boring.
The fact that Dodie had a GINGER wig shows how badly she wanted to be ginger 😂
"There were copper colored ponies" 🥴🥴🥴🥴
Ginger: *literally almost dies*
Everybody: "Pfft. Drama queen. Get over it."
Dodie: *fakes a broken leg*
Everybody: "ARE YOU OK?! LET US DO EVERYTHING FOR YOU YOU POOR THING!!!!"
So apparently life doesn't care about near-death experiences but a broken leg is a different story in Ginger's world.
Sounds like real life
People were so cruel to Ginger about almost dying but was so caring for Dodie for her fake broken leg. That pisses me off.
How did Ginger almost die? I don’t remember that episode
@@TheHurdyGurdyMan. She went through a break-up with Darren which hurt her emotionally, psychologically then physically. As she was clutching her stomach in her room, it was discovered by her mom Lois that she was convulsive and had appendicitis. Hence, Ginger ended up being rushed into hospital for the procedure to be completed.
For high school kids, Cheerleaders and football players are the social caste equivalent of royalty.
I loved Courtney so much, I was so sad that she wasn't in the final episode as an adult, listening to Ginger...
Me too! I like to believe that Courtney, despite a rocky start to high school, did very well for herself in adulthood. And that maybe, she was unable to attend Ginger's book event for whatever reason, but sent Ginger flowers as a congratulatory gift for her first published book. That's my headcanon anyways!
I came up with my own headcanon for Courtney. She went to college and majored in economics, then started her own very successful business. She stayed friends with Ginger and was not only in Ginger's wedding, but got a shout out in Ginger's book. She was only not at the last scene because she was in France overseeing the opening of the Paris office of her business.
@@StarViewer68 in the marriage episode Courtney father got arrested and they lost all their money and was poor
@@jessicahill6418 Gingers advice and life tips probably really helped her out long term but a huge missed opportunity to not have her be at Ginger and Darrens wedding
I hoped the same! I think they could have been great friends
Joanne and Dodie Bishop are horrible people, and I'll never understand Ginger wanting to stay friends with her! Hoodsy and his dad are decent people, what did that man see in Joanne, I'll never understand! Courtney was great, ditch Dodie and replace her with Courtney forever!
Dodie is as bad, if not worse than, dijonay from the proud family
I kinda wish we had gotten a "As Told By Courtney" spinoff after ATBG ended. She was really interesting.
@@SaiOkami777 yeeeeaaah. Dijonay does suck.
SaiOkami777 omg I hated Dijoney, I knew one like her in middle school
Miranda is leagues worse than any of the characters
"Highschool is a lot like life. And life doesn't care about your appendix."
Meanwhile, when mine was ready to burst, I was FORCED to stay home by my doctor for two weeks to recover when I wanted to go to work. Life forced me to care about my appendix. What school is this, making students attend straight out of surgery?!
Yep... schools are very strict about kids being absent
I live in texas; one day after a huge surgery (heavy pain killers for two weeks) I was bombarded with phone calls and emails about how it was unacceptable for me to be absent, even though I explained why I would be absent absence two weeks (repeatedly) BEFORE I had surgery. When I came back my teachers acted snippy, until they suddenly decided to be incredibly nice after I explained my reason of absence.
Most American schools don’t really care about their students tbh, it’s more common than you think
That one Awkward NOODLE I was in the hospital for almost a month my senior year and got the same thing except for two teachers who understood the rest were rude Nd didn’t believe me along with the dean of discipline of my school who tried to convince my principal to suspend me for to many absences it took my mother explaining it for them to drop it
@@pumpkinvici1858 exactly. They really b doing to much 🤦🏽♀️🤧
Probably this was unintentional, but "Dodie's big break" really shows how people with invisible disabilities are treated vs. those with visible ones.
They did abandon her when the ruse was revealed at least.
Courtney was the best character in the series, watching her change and grow throughout the show was really great. Kinda feel terrible for her at the end though, she didn't deserve to suffer for her dad's shady dealings.
Sadly many times the families pay for their family members’ decisions
It always boggle my mind why Ginger and Macy were ever friends with Dotie. She is the absolute worst friend to have.
It's worse when you realize she was based off a real person....10/10 quality friend right there.
I think there's some realism in that friendships are a lot of circumstance and in childhood there's this gravity that keeps you with certain friends to do with locality and school which means even if that friendship is problematic you don't tend to fall away from someone for too long.
Such things happen in life all the time.
Alpha Jay 3.0 we all make mistakes
Alpha Jay 3.0 I never liked her :p
When I saw clover, Sasha was dead to me. All that build up from camp caprice and then he gets back with his ex, I felt so bad for ginger
he is a idiot
What do you mean clover nor sasha didn't do nothing wrong. It was dumb to invest in a short summer romance. That was the point of the episode. School romances ain't shit just cause Disney or Nick shows over cliche it.
@@WillianyAmill like middle school and high school dating it doesn't last 9.5/10
Williany Amill after giving a girl a locket and the question to date pretty much. He could of said I m sorry I meet some one else or explained situation. Make it less awkward when he see s her next summer
Williany Amill
i think the main problem people have with sasha is because of exactly what old school lane said, he got mad at ginger for thinking she was just like his ex, all to get to know her and then dump her for his ex, who already previously left him for someone apparently better then him at the time, i can see why most people would hate him and to a smaller extent her, he dumped ginger and became exactly what he was getting mad at ginger for earlier in the camp storyline, not a lot of people like hypocrites in cartoons or real life.
dodie being another example of somebody the fan base isn’t a fan of for many many reasons, including the episode were she and macy gets with gingers bullies miranda and mipzy to get darren and ginger to break up due to all of their personal jealousy.
Wow i almost forgot miranda had very small moments where she was Nice and cared about things
I into right. Most of what I remember from her is a snarky mean girl.
I actually like Miranda. I always love a good villain. But I also STAN Cree Summers... So I guess I'm biased
Dodie is the Zach Morris of as told by ginger. DODIE BISHOP IS TRAAAASH. 🎶
Also comparable to Dijonay Jones from proud family
@@SaiOkami777 dj Is fake af
@@princess1peach How DJ got away with half the stuff she pulled on Penny is beyond me... I'd trust Starscream before I trust dijonay
Dijonay was fouler than Jodi.
@The Raw Truth Thank you for the laugh!
I wish that this show would have overcome the “popularity” cliché. I get that popularity is a high school/middle school issue, but for most kids, it really isn’t that important. Honestly, I don’t know anyone that actively cared about being popular as a kid. It’s more like they wanted to fit in. As long as they had a decent friend group, it didn’t matter.
I went to a different high school every year and there was never a “most popular” girl or guy. There were cooler friend groups, but people weren’t clamoring to hang out with them. Everyone just did their own thing.
I think there would have been a lot more they could have covered if the desperation to be friends with Courtney wasn’t the biggest focal point.
Just want to say the reason Macie didn’t join the band for the competition in Ginger’s Solo is she said she had “no lung power for the clarinet”. I always interpreted that as she was having breathing difficulty (asthma, bronchitis or something else) that made it difficult for her to play the clarinet which takes a lot of air to play well, not because there was not a part in the music for clarinet.
Courtney was a way better friend to Ginger than Dodie ever was that's especially true in the later episodes. Courtney genuinely liked and cared about Ginger and she always had Ginger's back.
Dodie is seriously the worst friend. I always thought Ginger could do better.
Who here thinks High School Ms. Zorski needs to be fired?
Lady's crazy strict! Poor Ginger almost died and she essential said she doesn't give a damn, be on time anyway! Bitch! I've some crappy teachers my entire school life, so yeah, someone fire this woman!
I do! In a heartbeat!
@@Trufflemaster "Fired permanently" LOL...nobody gets fired temporarily.
Me! That shit would never fly nowadays
Even college professors aren't as strict as her
These episodes kinda make me wonder why Ginger still considers Dodie a friend after all the sh!t she's tried to pull. The episode with the lice especially.
Well because that's how they wrote the characters....?
Lydi Bug yeah, I thought that was an all time low for her.
@@WillianyAmill well yes but Dodie still didn't deserve Ginger as a friend.
@@kentuckydeep-friedcum5198 then who exactly should be doddie's' friends? Horrible nasty people? Is that what you think barely high school mental capacity children still trying to learn who they are deserve? Only the worst for not even the worst people? That's the philosophy in your mind? Think Miranda should be front runner for doddie? You'd think doddie would have that coming right cause she's already brain washed an influenced by that to some degree? That's what you think people with the most basic flaws and misunderstanding deserve?
I can’t stand Dodie😒
I've never liked Dodie. At all.
You know who she reminds me of? Dijonay from The Proud Family. I mean, they both have the exact same personality!
I haven't seen it on quite some time, but I feel like even she had more redeemable moments compared to dodie. Tbh, i forgot just how much i detested her until this video .
Dijonay wasn't a great friend, but she wasn't nearly as bad as Dodie
@@greendiamondglow One time, she backstabbed and ditched Penny by making her babysit all her brothers and sisters, just so she could go to a concert. Like, seriously?!
@@martinkreps9946 that is bad but Doty is worse though she told all of Ginger secrets to her worst enemy she also watched Darren cheat on Ginger and didn't even have the nerve to tell Ginger what he was doing and backstab ginger by going to the football teams party even though Ginger and Macy was against it I can name at least five more things that she did the list just goes on and on
@@jessicahill6418 Yeah, Dodie was a *terrible* friend.
Courtney was the best rich girl of any cartoon ever. She had her tantrumy, childish, selfish moments, but overall she wasn't really bad and was never intentionally mean to anyone unless she was already done with them. Like even on that camp episode, Courtney lied because she thought that would make Ginger happy, to be seen as popular as desirable on their school. She had no idea that would bring bad consequences for her.
I always thought that Courtney was very interesting and I've always felt very bad for her. I remember her as the person who tried to make Ginger happy any way she could and less of her mean moments, because I mostly remember she secretly wanted to be best friends with Ginger or something like that. Either way, I thought she was a MUCH better friend than freakin Doddie who always seemed to throw her friends in the trash. That's how I remember her, anyways. It was a very long time ago lol.
I actually liked Miranda. I mean as a character. She's a terrible person, but she's so much fun to watch!
She was so charismatic
Right, she was atleast consistent and true to herself. Unlike Dodie who would abandon and throw people under the bus for the slightest chance at popularity.
And she had her redeemable moments in As Told by Ginger! I love her better than Dodie, even though Dodie was one of the main protagonists.
I also don't hate Miranda. Mainly because Cree Summer's fantastic performance. Sounds like Cree had a great time voicing her.
to me what makes Miranda work as a character she meant to be a foil to ginger it shown her father behaviour morph her into what she is now we also see how due to not having her mother around it might've made her a bite more colder as well as showing to keep Courtney around to have control and to feel having a friend which makes Miranda one of the few tragic characters you can't help but feel sorry for much like drago in harry potter or Chloe in miraclous ladybug as they had moments to be happy or get what they wanted but never took it
Ginger was always a good genuine person. She always went out her way and had best interest at heart but the ppl around her didn't treat her well
I wish the show ended at Butterflies are Free, or before the high school episodes. They're too harsh to be considered realistic.
Except they are real
I thin what they were implying with the Macy-clarinet plot hole was that Macy was saying she was kicked out of band because she didn't have enough "lung power" for the clarinet, which makes sense given her ongoing respiratory issues. Miranda doesn't have that issue so she's still in the band.
I really hate that demon teacher at the beginning. Ginger explains that her appendix burst, and the teacher shows no concern. Ginger should stay home until she fully recovers, and the teacher should be fired.
Jeez, that teacher was a bitch!!!
It kinda reminds me of the time when my middle school nurse told me that my hand was fine and sent me back to class even though it was broken and covered with blood.
@@kittycatmeowmeow963sheesh my pe teacher thought I was overreacting about a blister on the bottom of my foot it was right in the middle of my foot a few days after that I found out why it was painful it had a blister right under it I was literally walking sideways on it which was bad for my ankles they tended to get turned easily if I wasn't careful and felt like a sprain
Dodie reminds me of Wendy Williams
Right. And Miranda reminds me of Sandra Bullock despite Bullock being white.
never before have i read something truer in my life
Always thought of ATBG as a softer Daria
Daria is better than As told by ginger
@@Dwayne_MitchellYT I love both but I respect your opinion
@Wunsford Digglespit Who's Poochie? I'm probably missing something.
Don't you mean diarrhea
@@Dwayne_MitchellYT I love both because of the nostalgia I had from them. Makes me sad 😥😞
Sasha and Dodie are the most punchable people I’ve ever seen.
When I was a kid, I hated Miranda because she was always treating Ginger like a nobody.
Christian Gonzales true, Miranda was awful too
Agree they are both awful .
@@christiangonzales7429 Sasha and Dodie are awful but Miranda is a mean witch and the worst .
Nickelodeon has a habit of treating its shows like crap. Especially its best ones. That’s how they lost the rights to Miraculous Ladybug. Kudos to Zagtoons for moving it to Netflix and Disney.
Exactly. They literally treat shows like trash and forget about them. I wish that this was available on TV. It’s so underrated. Nick needs to do better with their shows, especially ones that are underrated like As Told By Ginger.
and netflix is soooo much better. they dump everything online in 1 day, never advertise it and don't renew them after. so great!!
What!! is that what happened to miraculous? I wondered, then see it on Netflix now. That show is underrated too
I actually hate Doaty with a passion!
Even Courtney who was always meant to be seen as bully day one to Ginger, always seem to have the oddest/hardest time being mean to Ginger.
Sure she manages to make Ginger feel like shit or get her in trouble for things she thought she should/was meant to do...As being a teenager/girl. How she took her down a bad path.
Yet I noticed at the end of said epi or 2 after that one Courtney always left handily or outright admit she was sorry without really saying it...but Ginger got it. Then by the time when they finally "grew up" in those last seasons she was REALLY A FRIEND!...And Doaty turned into ice queen/turd..even Courtney called her out tons of times when she was still Ginger's "bully" That is pretty bad your bully calling out one of your friends for being an ass to you.
@Katie Logue Courtney was a great friend. She always had Ginger’s back, gave great advice, wanted to hang out with her and her friends (minus Dodie, she’s fake), etc.
Courtney has a crush on ginger. Case closed.
If Ginger wanted an excuse to go to Sasha's school, she could have volunteered to help out the school band set up instead of joining
Jesus Christ, I haven't seen this show in 15 years and I didn't even watch it much then but I managed to remember what every character sounded like before hearing their voices.
This ingrained itself DEEP lol
Wow you really have me by surprise with Camp Caprice! I do agree it is pretty flawed and yeah Sasha is just a hypocritical SOB.
And I do agree Ginger gets treated pretty badly in high school. She just had appendicitis that nearly killed her and nobody gave a s*** ! I know that high school can be like hell but from my experience it wasn't like that.
We went from the trailer that said "Junior high is a jungle" to the episodes where high school was hell and got no better before the finale. Too bad there wasn't enough time at Lucky High for any real redemption. That might have made some sense.
That really pissed me off. Ginger almost died and nobody gave a rats ass about her! Even when I was on high school, it wasn't this brutal. Poor Ginger.
Ginger was treated like trash. I felt horrible. Not even bad. Just horrible. No one cared :( BUT THEY CARED ABOUT DODIE SO CALLED BREAKING HER LEG🤦🏾♀️
Losing a love interest is bad enough but going home with a medal you didn't deserve...
If that were me I'd feel like a loser and a FRAUD!
It's been over a decade since first watched the episode, it's been what over a year since I seen this review but, it still makes me mad!
Ummm she performed well when it mattered 🙄
i know this is impossible but i would love to see Miranda on Total Drama, against heather, they would have the craziest beef on tv
I loved Courtney she was adorable and didn’t have ill will fr
In some of this episodes why did they make the teachers so mean and unsympathetic I mean really Ginger went through a scary surgery not a simple check up , in fact they make Mrs Bitters and Mr Crocker look more pleasant as they had pazazz
Great list! Personally, I don’t hate any episode of As Told by Ginger but it’s really interesting to see other people’s thoughts. I agree about Dodie’s Big Break, I think it’s a pretty ‘eh’ episode and Dodie is incredibly rude throughout the entire episode (I mean, there’s no surprise there). Good idea bringing up the Hey Arnold episode, which does it way better (ATBG and Hey Arnold are my two fav Nicktoons), especially since Phoebe isn’t a bad person and was appreciating Helga’s kindness.
Yeah, I dislike Fair to Cloudy as well, I pretty much share the same opinion. Courtney however, is hilarious, probably one of the few enjoyable things in the episode!
I loved hearing your opinion on Camp Caprice because I do like the episode. I won’t shame you for disliking it though, it’s your opinion and I can see why it’s an episode you’re not fond of. You have some really valid points as to why you just can’t like it. Also, Sasha’s a jerk.
Ginger’s Solo is an episode I dislike, too. Sasha is such a hypocrite and so unlikeable. I have the same opinion as you. And it’s such a shame the episode occurred 15 episodes after Camp Caprice.
I feel so bad for Ginger in Detention. It seems like everybody was out to get her. I know, the show is supposed to be seen as realistic but she really can’t catch a break. It’s nice we get to see Orion in this episode, I do like him as a character. The joke with Dodie and her Ginger wig is also hilarious! Everything else in the episode just falls flat and is overall just an unenjoyable, negative episode.
Can’t wait for the second half of the list c:
I was so excited when I saw this video, told by Ginger is so underrated
Swordmasterqueen Thank you. Here are my thoughts on why ATBG is underrated if you want to check it out. th-cam.com/video/oQNDwBtg8v0/w-d-xo.html
What are you talking about?
Maci said she didnt have enough lung power for the clarinet, so why would miranda not need to go?
People, as much as I hated Dodie, remember how her mom was often putting pressure on her to be populair since she herself wasn't
Right this review was done so horribly and bias. Its like we had to precieve ginger was a decent person cause she had the wisdom and giadence of her mother all the time. But with doddie we have to just assume she was bad for the hell of it and not because of lack of motherly figure or literally having the worst fears of societal constructs that influence her to digg out of the minority class. I don't think audiences understand that doddies poularity chase was about her ambition to be worthy of getting the same oppertunities. No body paid attention that ginger as the main protaganist isnt the only one written with a comlexity, arc and charecter development.
Jimmy Grissam That’s doesn’t excuse Dodie’s atrocious behavior.
@@stcj0 You are the one with bias, her character was poorly written and all of her actions were still he own...just because you want to be over emotional doesn't make your argument some universal truth in the reverse...
I hated Dodie. Dodie was a horrible friend to Ginger. Courtney was the best friend to Ginger and the most down to earth, crazy enough. Courtney was definitely my favorite. I liked her personality.
Also, Camp Capris wasn’t my favorite either.
I get everything about this show. I love all the characters...even the shitty ones bc it’s more realistic that way. And all the life lessons are amazing. Probably the best show ever made. Good thing I have the entire series on dvd
I always thought the summer of camp caprice was awful. Sasha was a major tool. I hated him every time we see him on screen.
1:43 Dodie's Big Break (#10)
6:52 Fair To Cloudy (#9)
13:15 Summer of Camp Caprice (#8)
19:18 Ginger's Solo (#7)
26:29 Detention (#6)
What bugs me about episodes like the county fair one isn't that Ginger just isn't the best friend sometimes, it's that it feels like the show forgets who is friends with who. Like, sometimes they seem to forget Darren is Dodie and Macie's friend too just because he's dating Ginger now, or that they're friends with Courtney. It's weird to invite Courtney to the fair out of spite when Dodie normally wants to hang out with popular people anyway and a fair is exactly the kind of 'way to bond with the common folk' thing Courtney loves.
It just seems mean to act like Courtney isn't their friend and they wouldn't normally want to hang out with her or like Darren just met these guys and they don't know whether or not he'd be interested in their traditions. I guess with Darren it could be saying Ginger just expects things to be different now cuz they're dating, but it's this episode mixed with stuff like Wicked Game that makes me go 'Did the writers forget you're friends?'
You know, you would think Courtney would be this snobby girl you hate, but that was never the case. She always came off as sincere and she is at least willing to try something new. She’s just a rich girl who wasn’t used to a lot of these things
Courtney was one of the best characters. Its ashame the writers would shaft her like that and would have been interesting to see her confess to Ginger like intended. That would have made this show ahead of it's time for even doing that.
Wait, do you mean confess...AS IN LESBIANS!!??
Omg that was debunked by the show creator itself! 🙄 it was just a ship some fans made up 🙄
nice i needed something long to watch at 3am lol
Super Kami Guru lmao I’m in the same situation right now 😂
"Oh boy! 3a.m!"
Ah nice to see As Told by Ginger again, and I agree with this list so far. Dodie's Big Break would be my number 1 personally, but you did a good job explaining the episode. It's always nice to hear different perspectives of this show.
Agreed
Ginger literally had the worst friends but Courtney wasn’t too bad. She was the only one who warned ginger that her friends were gonna break her and darran up!
I hated Sasha too. He really didn't deserve to have that song written about him.
I haven't seen this show in years, and now thanks to the recent videos you made I'm genuinely thinking of marathoning this for old times sake.
Wow, that's great. If you're interested, then watch the series alongside our weekly As Told by Ginger podcast We're in Between. th-cam.com/play/PLXziGc54_DgmHtVoHhm1fNQpnt7fKFvvU.html
I loved this show as a kid!!! I loved how it showed both Gingers life and her brothers own story. It had a complex line where you can see others point of views. Recently I found out that they originally had a different animation style and I preferred that.
I’m just glad that I’m not the only one who still loves this show
Yes! It's about time you started making this list, Patricia! I'm loving it so far, although I disagree with the low placement of both "Dodie's Big Break" and "Fair to Cloudy"; they're top five material in my book. As for my opinions on the other three episodes in this first half, they're primarily "meh" episodes, with "Ginger's Solo" definitely being the weakest of them all. And don't worry about your thoughts on "Camp Caprice". Deebiedoobie from "As Told by Ginger: REVIEWED!" dislikes it for pretty much the same reasons as you.
And thank the Lord you too found the "Dodie having a Ginger wig" thing to be one of the better aspects about "Detention", perhaps the funniest moment that pathetic "sack of protoplasm" (borrowing those words from Ren Hoek) has provided in this entire series!
Can't wait for Part 2!
The way my jaw dropped when I heard the Camp Caprice song. I thought there was no way this iconic episode made the list, but after your breakdown of it I can see why it made the list.
Great video overall! Thanks for the nostalgia. 😊
Loved this. You were spot on with your analysis of certain episodes and you're hilarious!
One time I fell asleep in class. As punishment, my teacher made me stand. 5 mins later I was sleeping standing up. xD
How the writers even came up with a character like Dodie is beyond me
According to another commenter, she was based on a real person
@@TheClaireWitchProject makes completely sense she was based in a real person. Back in high school I had probably like 3 Doodies in my class ._.
Daisy Montano looool she’s a classic toxic friend. The writers should have had Ginger stop being her friend at some point so they could teach viewers how to navigate these relationships.
@@Twilightgirl674 tru lmao that'd be an amazing lesson! I also see something like turning Courtney into the oficial third friend, making Dodie feel like absolutely garbage since Courtney is everything she always wanted to be :^)
Dodie is definitely someone who we all went to high school with
I agree with a lot of the list. I did like Summer of Camp Caprice, though i was only 10 when it came out, so I probably didn't fully understand all that was happening at the time. Ginger's Solo made me mad when i saw it as an adult b/c i got to really see Sasha for the jerk he was. The whole joining the band thing was kinda weird, but i was glad Ginger got that closure. (I've been in situations like those where i didn't get closure, so it's hard for me to be mad at her in that one.) Can't wait for the rest of the list!
Somehow as a kid I only managed to see the episodes where Miranda got development and none of the episodes where it was walked back, so I came away with the impression that she got better. I'm honestly pretty disappointed to see that she never got any better.
Great video I like your opinions and the way you Express how you flet about the episodes, very well done indeed
I think Miranda hates Ginger because she is scared that Ginger takes her place as the popular girl's sidekick, because Miranda is just popular because she is Courtney's best friends and if she doesn't have Courtney she will be no longer popular because everybody Gate her.
Mipsy hates Ginger too but I think that Miranda has more reasons to hate Ginger because in the popular scale Courtney is the first Miranda the secondo and Mipsy the third and if Miranda became popular Mipsy will be just the second to Miranda
And Ginger was banned from shaving her legs. Lois is a good parent by having a stupid, horror story?
I stand by what I said earlier and I'm sure we all know what the worst episode is.
At least Wicked Game had good drama and build up to it.
Ginger's Solo was the worst episode to me, if ever there was ever an out of character moment/ cop-out in this series it was Ginger winning a medal she didn't deserve nor earn.
This show is supposed to be somewhat true to life and it that ending was way far depraved of anything close to real life.
I have to disagree with you here Patricia, winning a medal for barely doing anything does not and should not soften the sting of losing a love interest or give any sense of pride whatsoever.
It was so out of character and made Ginger look shallow and undeserving.
Okay this rant has gone on too long.
Thanks for featuring my comment and the series. Keep up the good work old school lane.
Ginger’s Solo was just boring to me. She joined the band for a boy who doesn’t even cared about her? Really? However, I liked how Miranda told Ginger that advice. That was a very redeeming moment for her!
24:35 Uh, it sounded to me like she said "No lung power for the clarinet." Which, in a marching band, makes sense, because you have to both walk and play at the same time. She even gestures to her chest as she says it. That wouldn't affect Miranda being in the competition at all. Correct me if I misheard, but I don't think this is a plot hole.
Dodie was gross
I actually think the whole Sasha thing makes sense. That's how life is. People do shit all the time that's cruel and hypocritical. That's just what life is like sometimes. Not always fair, not a fairy tell just real life. So, I disagree with you on this one quite a lot
Just because Macie didn't "have the lung power for the clarinet" does not mean Miranda wouldn't. The two are entirely different individuals.
Hope was a better friend than Doddie ._.
Funny how everyone hates Ginger's Solo, but I guess everyone takes from an episode what they relate or want to. Personally, I really like it. Everyone can relate to having a heartbreak. Everything you imagined with that person, suddenly crumbles in that second. Still, the lesson that sometimes we can decide whether we want to continue wasting our time crying for the one that went away OR we suck it up, learn to roll with the punches, and decide to do something that is in our control instead of worrying for something we can't change, is very true and relatable. Sure, Sasha being a jerk and the fact that Ginger just jumped in the middle of the journey to the band's success is another topic, but I decide to stick to that lesson and that's why I personally love the episode.
5:25-5:40 Urge to strangle Miranda Killgallen. Rising!
5:46-6:00 Urge to mash, crush, destroy, annihilate, bludgeon, and torment Evil New Zorski! Rising EVEN MOREEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! AAAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!!
Seriously, especially, in the latter case, I really wanted that inhumane, wicked witch of a persona known as Ms. Zorski's crusty cousin fired for treating someone as well-meaning like Ginger like dirt! I'm pretty sure the board of education would never tolerate her kind of behavior especially when someone got out of something as nearly fatal as an appendix removal. As for Miranda, she needs a hardcore lecture on empathy. Ye gods, these two piss me off and make my stomach incessantly churn!
I never liked Sasha after he went back to his girlfriend. Because I’m thinking the whole time now if she dumped you for a rich guy... eventually she is gonna do it again 😂💯
I actually completely agree with most of your comments about the Camp Caprice tv-movie, but those flaws are actually some of the reasons I loved it! People have so many layers (especially as teens) and people tend to act differently in different environments, hence why Miranda and Darren just couldn't work outside of their initial bonding experience. The other aspects, like how much of a jerk Sasha is, gives it a realistic feel and sets the plot up nicely for Ginger to eventually realize she fell for a romanticized situation (and a pretty face) and not the actual person.
Remember when you uploaded these the show was really hard to find online but nowadays it’s really easy to find
When I saw "Song of the Sea" I kept thinking of "Little Seal Girl"
Also Im not shore if I saw the Last episode of Ginger but I do know I saw her graduation.
Were do we find as told by ginger eps online? Iv been trying to find them but usually it lead to some place online asking for my information so yea.
While I didn't see the episode where Ginger and her friends all go to the fair I don't see why Ginger gets criticized for choosing to stay with her friends instead of Darren. Ginger has always been a girl who tends to put others before herself something that's pretty mature for someone 14/15 yrs old imo if anyone's to blame it's more like Dodie and Macie's fault.
Plus I think Ginger must have felt stuck between a rock and a hard place but now I see where you're going with the part of breaking tradition
The worst about this show to me was the cliffhanger when Dodie and Macy assisted Miranda and Mipsy in breaking up Ginger and Darren
And the next episode, all that is simply forgotten!
edit: ok... literally what part 2 starts with xD
Miranda and Macie aren't the only people who play the Clarinet, Squidward does as well. I'm sure they play it better than he does.
I don’t know why but I only remember the bad episodes. I didn’t know they actually had episodes where they talked about deadbeat dads and depression. I do remember hating her friend Dodie with a passion though, because she was just an all-around bad person

I guess because it's been so long since I've watched this show (Sometime when it aired) that I find it odd to see people still talking about it. Videos like this and the one Toonrific tariq made have charming feelings to them and it's really nostalgic
9:06 Thanks for the Heart attack there, god forbid I shut my brain off for one second
I don’t hate dodie mother tbh. I feel like her mother is miserable because of how she acted in her youth.
It's sad that I slept on this show when I was younger. It's truly a mastapiece
You can download watched in the App Store and type in the URL HuHu.To amd search as told by ginger
“And having different outfits”
SOLDDDDDDDDD
😂😂😂
where can i watch it for freee??
I really like your commentary and thoughts on this. Also, WHY DID THEY SEND GINGER TO SCHOOL POST SURGERY?? I haven't seen all the episodes because I was really little when this show came out. I only saw snippets now and then but I remember this show.
The Christmas episode where Ginger found out about her Jewish heritage (through her father's lineage) Which does not automatically make her Jewish. If it was her mom it could be a different. So seeing her moping around pretending to be a Jew and ruining everybody's Christmas was super annoying
Season 3 is hard to like. Macie gets no better (which hurts me a lot). Darren gets worse. Dodie gets worse, still. Worst of all, Courtney gets punished for no good reason (including a severe lack of appearances in high school).
But, I still like the show. Glad I watched it. Also, Lois is goat.
That is seriously true. As much I love this show, I will admit that the third and final season had most of the episodes degrading. But I only watch the best episodes from this series.
EVERY show has at least 1 bad episode
Especially shows that outstay their welcome (The Simpsons, Family Guy and SpongeBob come to mind). The longer they run, the less ideas the writers have and they eventually run out resulting in crappy episodes.
More than one!
I really enjoy your videos! 😊
tsuyayaka1 Thank you so much. Much appreciate the compliment.
I totally forgot about this show until I saw it on your channel
When you break down the episodes the way you do, I see your point. I agree with you.
Courtney will always be my sweet summer child.
This was a great show! It was clever, funny and touched base on subject matter that most cartoons hadn't found the comfort level to produce at the time.
It's believable when an adult fakes a serious injury, because they can buy a wheelchair and don't need their doctors sharing medical records with other adults very often. Dodie's a kid. How could she afford a wheelchair, and convince her parents to keep up the ruse? She had to have gone to the hospital, with her parents learning the severity of her injuries. They just, let her go to school in a wheelchair?
Darren is an odd character and kind of a tool. Only hanging out with ginger and her friends because he was a reject too. Didn't share similar interests, just hung out because he had nowhere else to go
Darren was a football player and popular. This was clear by this episode. He was trying to be nice.
@@frankienickels2056 became one, he wasn't always one. When ginger got semi popular she didn't ditch her friends like he did
@@frankienickels2056Darren was an outcast in middle school and Ginger was still friends with him. In fact, they started dating while he was an outcast. He became popular, which turned him into a douche.
