Review:

A.N.T. Farm is a 30-minute tween sitcom which airs on the Disney Channel and centers around the life of eleven-year-old Chyna Parks, a musical prodigy who attends a program for gifted kids at the local high school. At the Advanced Natural Talent (A.N.T.) program, China meets Olive, a girl with a photographic memory, and Fletcher, an artistic genius, and the three quickly become best friends. The show follows the group as they go on various mischievous, yet generally harmless adventures, and as they deal with the hazards of attending school amongst older teens. Recurring characters are Chyna's older brother Cameron, who is mainly embarrassed by his younger sister; Chyna's police officer father, Darryl; Lexi, the popular blond bully; and Gibson, the hapless teacher of the A.N.T. program.

Opinion:

A.N.T. Farm is a typical tween sitcom... stock characters, unrealistic situations and silly humor, but it's entertaining. The multicultural cast is also a nice touch.
