What Parents Need to Know
About Merry Christmas, Drake & Josh
Parents need to know that some young viewers who watch this made-for-TV holiday movie starring the cast of Nickelodeon's hit series Drake & Josh may need a reality check afterward. Older tweens will understand the fantasy nature of what they see, but littler kids may need a few reminders about responsible teen behavior. As in the sitcom, responsible Josh repeatedly falls victim to his impulsive stepbrother's antics, and while the situations are always spun for laughs, this time Josh lands in federal prison -- and both teens wind up in court. Felonies aside, even some of the guys' everyday actions are pretty iffy, including driving erratically, not wearing seatbelts, and lying to make their sister help them evade a parole officer. Predictably, none of this behavior results in any relatable, lasting consequences. But at least there's no swearing, drinking, or sex (other than a couple of kisses), either!

Families Can Talk About
Families can talk about how the media portrays teens. Do you think this movie gives an accurate impression of teen life? Why or why not? How are Drake and Josh's circumstances different from yours? How are they the same? Do you think the media tends to stereotype teen roles? What other shows do you watch with teen characters? How do their actions compare to Drake and Josh's? Do you find any to be more believable than others? Which ones?

Good family fun, but TV rating is deceiving
The movie was actually rated TV-G, yet it still had objectionable content that would've warranted a higher rating. This mainly included sexual content and language; violence was cartoonish and exaggerated, but still present. But that doesn't take away from the fun of the movie at all. I agree with Common Sense: if you don't like the corny plot, change the channel; but if you like the show, you will love the movie. I, for one, enjoyed the movie (though it was somewhat corny and silly). Regarding the TV rating, it should have been rated TV-PG-L.
