We need more shows like Braceface

[Mew Guy]

Braceface touches issues that other kid shows wouldn't touch with a 20 foot pole.

1) It showed that underage drinking is wrong by having Sharon getting drunk and having a hangover the next morning. You won't see a character on any other kid show doing that.

2) It has an openly homosexual character. Some other kid shows have a homosexual character, but they don't make it so obvious.

3) Sharon's grandfather is racist. On other kid shows no-one can be racist. Not even villains.

4) In "Busted" Sharon gets a pump-up bra.

5) In "Teacher's Pet" Sharon and Adam suspect Maria's teacher might be a paedophile.

Yeah, but I don't see anymore coming down the road. It'd be nice, though, but let Braceface have the pleasure.

Braceface actually touches these issues!?

Braceface is on Disney Channel isn't, I'll I can say is WOAH!!

[loyalheart]

like "the n" aka nickelodeon cuts degrassi episodes , disney cuts braceface episodes. BraceFace and Degrassi are uncut in canada, where they are made.

both shows touch these issues but are not american made.. and the american shows for kids that have these issues are sitcoms like boy meets world.

[MonkeyFunk]

Wow, now I wish I watched it more. This really looks like a step foreward.
Anyone know if Cahnnel 5 edits it here in the UK?

[Rindesayu]

I remember 1 and 5, but I don't remember 2, 3, and 4. Who's the openly homosexual character?

[SuperStantzio]

Braceface actually does explain those issues? It's cool I wonder it this the only show is allowed to do this?

Underage drinking isn't wrong. In Europe kids are allowed to drink, and because it's not forbidden, kids in Europe don't take every opportunity to get plastered. And they have pills for hangovers now.

There was a guy in the third (?) season... I can't remember his name right now...

I guess they were saving tween pregnancy for the movie.

Richie`s father in Static Shock is a Racist too.

[Master Moron]

Yes, we live in America, where people aren't allowed to drink until they're 21, which explains why young people all get plastered every weekend.

In "Busted" Sharon gets a pump-up bra.

thus proving that nothing helps compensate for a tween's hideous braces like having giant monster boobs
