Yea, I heard about this. I love Disney, but they could have come up with a better title for the show. I will probably try to catch one or two episodes, just for kicks. EW really slammed the show, and I am surprised they graded it a B-. LOL

LOL...I was reading this show description from imdb:
"As the Bell Rings" focuses on the break time antics of the 6 key characters. The action takes place in a school corridor, just outside the head teacher's office and the window into their world is literally the window of the school building. The stars of 'As the Bell rings' use their break time to come up various schemes from winning a date with the prettiest girl in school to trying to captain every school club or team"
Sound familiar?

I was just about to post this. however, As the bell rings is only 5 minutes long an episode and consists of strange storylines about sandwhiches and stuff.

Yeah a little tooooo familiar! They should just play short scenes of SBTB for that! Come on! Save the money...LOL This can only be done once. and it was done right the first time....can't recreate what's already made an impact....history, basically.

OMG i saw a commercail for that show and i was like hugh? it sounds too much like sbtb! i watch a lot of disney and nick now cuz when i babysit the kids are always watching it. lol i saw like a few seconds of it and it looked not very good. i should ask the kids what they think of it. i was thinking about bringing over my sbtb dvds and showing them how all these copycat shows came to be. LOL ill have to catch it on again to get a better feel for it.

Hey Gang,
In light of this new show, well, it got me thinking. I've got an idea for a great new show. It takes place in the 1800s and focuses on a family living in Minnesota on the frontier. It is written from the perspective of one of the girls in the family. I call it, "Small Home on the Prairie." What do you think?

I watched an episode of it on youtube...the one called Talent Show. Now I know it must be a rip-off...there's a banner in the background that says "Talent Show."
It's just too much of a coincidence for me. I know you can only do so much with a school show, but the title, them being in the hallway, the banner, just everything screams SBTB. lol
Now I will agree with you Erika, they must've like it in order to redo it, so that is pretty flattering.
