7 April 1999 | Peter T. Movie
I love it!
This show is amazing! I watch it every sunday on the "WB". Marcus, Moh, and T.J are my favorite characters. I think its funny that a twelve year old kid can out smart his father, his brother and almost everyone else, except his sister. At first, when the show first came out in 1997, I was almost jealous of T.J. Being 10 years old and in High School, and me being 13 years old and in middle school. But then I remembered that it was only a sitcom and that T.J probably doesn't write his own dialogue. The funny thing about kid actors is they do a really good job of making you believe that they actually know what they're talking about. I think this show is great for anybody over 5 years old. Its funny, and every episode is original. I give this show a rare 10!

Trivia

Quotes

Mr. Basil Militich: T.J. You're not in elementry school anymore. You're in highschool. You've got to learn some self-control.
TJ Henderson: Yeah but I have so many ideas in my head that they just come flowing out.
Mr. Basil Militich: Yes I know.

Alternate Versions

On the U.S. cable network BET, reruns of this show (since September 2008) end without the Walt Disney Television logo, but with those of De Passe Productions and Danny Kallis Productions. As such, the only mention of Disney's involvement lies in the copyright notice.
