Amanda show


The Amanda show is a great classic show which most of us enjoyed in the late 1990s towards the early 2000s.  The idea behind this show was that Amanda who was a girl was the main character.  She was portrayed as being smart, funny, and most of the time a goofball; however, she was the main character in all of the scenes and acted the best compared to all other actors in the scenes.  This correlates to the article Girls Rule!, as in both circumstances a girl is the lead character and takes the leader role in all or most of all the scenes. 
In a way Amanda in the Amanda show is represented as a total fool, with no knowledge or educated reasoning during the show.  This is completely different than what women are used to in television, as their characters are displayed as nice kind and more mature then men.  Amanda can be seen making jokes, acting rude and impolite, hanging out with the boys, and disrespecting men.  She does this by smacking fishes in their faces, making immature comments to people, and showing off as a loud and un-sanitized character.   The interesting fact about this show was people enjoyed it, and young boys and girls saw it acceptable and funny.  This was pure success for the Amanda show and girls as this were a break-through show, capable of having girls be the stars of a television show.  Also, young boys were acceptance of this show and realized that girls can be funny and the main character of a television show.
