Wendell & Vinnie

This show actually displays some really hilarious material as opposed to most of the retarded shows on the network. Hoping all the other shows can learn a thing or two. It's a little mature for kids of around 9 but at the same time I don't really think that their target audience, possibly the reason it's shown too late. Perhaps the only show on Nick that could survive on a major network and am talking about ABC (not the Nick isn't a major network, but networks that attract mature audiences). Would probably get canned after 2 seasons but it would keep people from throwing up. Currently the ONLY funny show on Nick (note the word "only" in caps).

I'm not saying this show is awful, but I don't like what it's doing with Jerry Trainor on Nickelodeon. The show is taking away Jerry trainor's popularity on iCarly as a funny, goofy, and creative guy who doesn't curse or drink alcohol. I don't like how they are trying to take away Jerry Trainor's cuteness by making him star on some adult show on Nickelodeon. I read that the show was cancelled. I'm just glad I don't have to hear Jerry Trainor say another curse word again. They need to understand what people think of Jerry Trainor when they watch him on Nickelodeon. They better keep him the way he is: not cursing or seen drinking alcohol.

I'm not entirely sure if it was originally supposed to be for younger viewers because some of its content and language seems to be geared more towards people aged 17 and older - I even forgot I was watching a Nickelodeon show. Describing it in relation to other shows or movies, Wendell and Vinnie is similar to Melissa & Joey and Raising Helen in that the deemed single, irresponsible/Peter-Pan-like family member gains custody of his/her sibling's child(ren) for a tragic reason. It's a television show that not only can make you laugh, but also has its touching moments.

It is not your nowadays average Nickelodeon show, shows like iCarly or Victorious. Don't get me wrong, I respect Dan Schneider's work, but sometimes, iCarly and Victorious just seemed like they were trying too hard to be funny. Oftentimes, it was awkward to watch because of how hard they were trying. Here, Wendell and Vinnie and the people in their lives are more real and less in-your-face with the humor - it's subtle - just like most of us in reality would be. It's not awkward because the characters - and by extension, the writers of the show - know when to stop or when they're about to risk crossing a line.

All in all, it's a great show. If Nickelodeon DOES decide the show is too much for them, they should at least consider moving it to another network rather than cancelling it.

We were excited when we seen Jerry Trainor (Spencer) in a new series as we really enjoyed watching him on"iCarly"

I have watched two episodes of this show with my daughter and it is now on our "Do Not Watch List" In one episode Wendell's Uncle Vinnie tells him he is in hopes for a change that Wendell is looking at girls or boobs on his computer. In the next episode we watched one teacher refers to Wendell's Aunt as a Sluttier version of herself and entices Uncle Vinnie by talking about her extensive lingerie collection.

While we like the characters and concept of the show we feel that the intended humor is not age appropriate for children.

Since I was a child, I have always enjoyed Nickelodeon. But after Drake and Josh ended, I have always preferred Disney Channel. However, this show gave me a reason to tune in to my childhood channel. I thought this show was really funny and its a shame its now cancelled. People believe this may have been due to its humour content which apparently inappropriate to kids. I must agree as it does contain some adult jokes. However, I believe the show was still not worthy of cancelling due to this reason. Can't have nickelodeon just sold the show to a different channel like Comedy Central? I mean its such a shame! This show could have been a big hit like The inbetweeners(UK) or Two and a Half Men. :/
