Well, I respect your opinion though it is unpopular.

I have no problem with Dan recycling cast members because, quite frankly, I've come to expect it from him. What I didn't expect was for him to come up with the same concept that two recent shows already have. It has been shown in the past that Dan is capable of coming up with better, more creative ideas. And honestly, even casual fans of his shows are starting to see a major decline in the quality of his work.

The whole issue I have with Jennette and Ariana staying on Nick is simply, as I stated before, they are capable of so much more. Limiting themselves to a kids network reduces the likelihood that they get more mature roles in the future. I just find this sad is all.

And yes, I realize that there are many shows about teenage hijinks, but that is such a broad concept that it would be nearly impossible for any kids/teens show not to incorporate it. Babysitting, on the other hand, is a more specific idea that has been done time and time again. It's fine if Dan reuses ideas from his previous shows and puts a new spin on them, but that's not what he seems to be doing here. We have yet to see if he will put a new spin on this babysitting concept or not.

I'm sorry that you stopped watching around Season 3. Maybe that is why you don't fully understand where I'm coming from. I'd highly recommend you go back and watch it. Until then, you have your views I have mine. ;P
