     Netflix brought the show back and many people were excited to rewatch and listen to the nostalgic songs and memories from the show. Many liked watching it due to being able to have things in common with older siblings.
     “I liked that I can relate to my older siblings because they can watch it too and I could watch it with them,” stated Lucas Mills (10)
     The show was watched by many young audiences, and some of the jokes are mature but from that point many kids who are young still watch it. And don’t fully understand some of the jokes they make. It can depend on performances of what is too mature for some young audiences to watch.
“There some mature jokes in there that they have but I guess everyone can watch it,” mentioned Ysabella White (10).
People have different opinions on the show, many have said the reboot would be successful because of how it ended in after 3 years of the show airing. But some have different outlooks that characters would not be appealing to today’s era of kids.
“The cast is all old and they are all doing other things,” stated Mollie Eastwood (9)
      The show had many dance and singing breaks which lead to many people to have a nostalgic memory of the show. Whether or not the cast decides on having a reboot or not many people are watching it on Netflix today.
