Disney Channel's So Weird, a mid-season replacement when it launched in 1999, can be best described as The Partridge Family meets The X-Files, especially during its 1st 2 seasons.
So Weird was a TV comeback for Mackenzie Phillips (ex-One Day at a Time), who plays a widow back on the road as a singer as she recovers from the loss of her husband and singing partner. Cara DeLizia top-lined in the first two seasons, and doubled as narrator, but left after 1 episode in season 3 to seek other career opportunities outside the Disney umbrella. After she left, So Weird took on a lighter tone, and was cancelled after the final season.
I've barely seen this show, so I can't fairly rate it. We'll leave you with a trailer:
The folks over at Disney studios certainly do seem to love dead parents, don't they?
ReplyDeleteThere's a branch that does. It's a phase they should be out of.
