Jonas - Keeping it Real
Season One, Volume 1
The Jonas brothers, perhaps one of the hottest groups when it comes
to the tween/teen market, star in their own teen comedy series,
Jonas - Keeping it real. Keeping it Real stars Kevin, Joe and Nick
Jonas as Kevin, Joe and Nick Lucas, as brothers. It follows them at
home (in a converted fire station, complete with poles to slide
down) with their parents, brother and sister, also at school and
other teenage hangout locations.
Teen comedy series always have a few common elements - good clean
humour, crazy escapades, pesky little brothers, love interests -
Jonas brothers has it all. In the first episode, Wrong Song, Nick
is crazy about a girl who is a fellow musician. Nick writes a song
for her and after a misunderstanding, the girl uses the song in her
act and dedicates it to another guy. As can be seen, the plot lines
are simple fare, to be consumed by a younger audience. Expectedly,
as the series progresses, each brother’s character develops and get
their own storylines, for example, Kevin in finding a college.
Spattered throughout each episode are Jonas brothers songs written
especially for the series. These are enjoyable, cheesy pop songs
which hark back to perhaps a much older series about a family band
*wink*.
It's not worth mentioning the adequate acting, the unbelievable
plot, the cheesy jokes - that's what makes this so accessible to its
intended viewers who don't care about these things and add to the
fun factor. Adults may find these episodes a little too simple, the
jokes a bit too childish but younger family members will get a lot
of enjoyment out of watching this.
