"The Famous Jett Jackson" and other Disney shows in the late 90's

Posted: 8/3/06 at 12:57am

I just saw a commercial for SMALLVILLE, on which Lee Thompson Young is guest starring and I just started thinking about Jett Jackson.

I think this was one of my favorite shows when it was on - actually.

Anyone else enjoy this show? Anyone see the movie?
I can't remember if I saw it or not.

I used to like that show too.

OT: Does anyone happen to remember the show So Weird that use to be on Disney Channel?

I loved So Weird, as well.

I remember during one vacation froms chool they showed a whole marathon of it.

Fiona!

Then she played the lesbian friend (who wasn't really a lesbian) in MEAN GIRLS.

Ahh I used to love Jett Jackson! Totally dug So Weird as well. Who remembers that show The Jersey, or the one with the EMTs that Shawn Ashmore was in? Man...good times.

However...the second "Fiona" ...Annie (played by Alexz Johnson)...was in Final Destination 3. She was killed by a nail gun to the head. Gruesome.

Loved both of those shows!

The guy who played Fiona's older brother in So Weird actually sat in the row in front of my sister and I when we saw Little Women in previews. It took us SO long to remember how we knew him, but then we finally realized he was from that show...

Which one was So Weird? I liked the Eerie, Indiana series... but that might've been on Nickelodien.

I loooved Jett Jackson... he was hot for a 12 year old solving predictably solvable crimes.

I never watched the show, but saw the movie. I was bored one night.

I looved the Jersey. It was on during the years of sportsmania--Giants making the superbowl, Subway Series.

Haha, I loved The Famous Jett Jackson...but I liked Even Stevens more. my mom actually liked that show, too. Is it still airing? I haven't watched The Disney Channel in about four years.

I didn't like So Weird. I was always a scared kid. And I watched The Jersey from time to time, but I was never a sports person. I liked most of Disney's original series, even *shudder* Lizzie Maguire at some point. I now try to cover that up in any way possible, so don't tell anyone.

Oh, I loved So Weird! The first two seasons were so good, and then the Disney channel decided that it was getting too "deep" for children and fired the original writers. And brought in that horrible Annie character and only did stand-alone episodes, and mind-numbing ones at that. I've always been bitter that we never really got a resolution for Fiona's storyline about her father. I should probably get over it, but it's like.... unfinished business or something. Some of the episodes were cheesy, sure, but some, particularly the plot-related ones, were surprisingly good.

Also, a show where I loved the episode titles.

Was the Jersey the one where the characters transformed into famous athletes after putting on the jersey? I remember that, but I don't remember if I liked it.

Yep, that was The Jersey. That show was so horribly bad that it was semi-good.

I think Jett Jackson was my first crush, ever. I LOVED him.

And So Weird was awesome, until Annie. I never got that scared, but that one episode with the banshee was a bit frightening.

I HATED The Jersey; it was too spots oriented for my tastes. I loved jett jackson, however. So Wierd terrified me.

Sports oriented? It's called the Jersey.
I, on the other hand, love sports. Especially swimmers, I mean swimming.
