    Can someone help me understand what these all mean?! From what I understand they're all the same. Does anyone really know what these words mean or do you just use them whenever you talk about kid oriented shows? The reason I put this in the Entertainment Board is because these are words used to describe kids who are into things like TV, Movies, Music or whatever.

    Watch anything on the Disney Channel and you'll understand.

    That doesn't really answer my question. I already watch Disney Channel and I don't see anything on each and every show that would make me call it a kidcom or tweencom.

    I like the term zitcoms best. It rhymes with another word that can be used to describe junky adult sitcoms like According to Jim.
    And stay out of Riverdale!

    Kidcoms - Sitcoms that target kids, usually ages 8-12 who are in the position to harass their parents to buy merchandise related to the show.
    Tweencoms - Sitcoms that target "tweens," or preteen children aged 10-12.
    Teenyboppers - Teenage girls aged 13-15 who enjoy keeping up with fads and fashion trends.
    Tweens - preteen children aged 10-12.
