What Parents Need to Know
About The Weekenders
Parents need to know that this cartoon is squarely aimed at tweens who can't wait to be a little bit older. Featuring jokes that involve celebrity disses, subtle put downs, and even a few iffy words ("crap" is about as bad as it gets), it's not really for the younger set. The main characters' only goal seems to be to have as much fun -- and do as little homework -- as possible. Nevertheless, there are some decent take-aways about the importance of honesty, loyalty, and patience when it comes to friendship.

Not tasteless...rather, a classic.
I grew up with this show during its brief run. You can't dismiss this as tasteless, and it's really too bad that you can no logner find this program.
