Plot
The spin-off to Sonny with a Chance, So Random! is a musical sketch comedy continuing some of the sketches on the original show while introducing new sketches with a new repertory cast.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) All of the characters are flanderized badly:
 * 2) *Tawni Hart is changed from a lovely lady to a complete sassy and unlikable lady.
 * 3) *Zora Lancaster is changed from a sweet loving little girl to a pink-haired spoiled brat who always acts very childishly, despite her now being 13 years old whereas she was 11 in Sonny With A Chance.
 * 4) *Nico Harris is changed from an amazing black teen to a stereotypical African American teen.
 * 5) *Chad Dylan Cooper is changed from a great guy to a guy who speaks in third person a lot.
 * 6) *Grady Mitchell is changed from a funny guy to a moronic idiot who can sometimes act like a selfish jerkass.
 * 7) Demi Lovato's character Sonny Munroe doesn’t seem to exist anymore since the original ended 5 months before this show existed. She hasn’t returned for a guest appearance in the show either.
 * 8) A lot of friend conflict.
 * 9) The laugh track plays when there's unfunny scenes.
 * 10) It can terribly get mean-spirited.
 * 11) Some awful sketches, with the worst offender being the "Strawberry Shortbread" sketch; which was not only a terrible parody of Strawberry Shortcake, but is also a massive insult to that show.
 * 12) Some weak jokes.
 * 13) This is basically Disney's poorly-written and unfunny version of mh:besttvshows:All That.
 * 14) False advertising for two reasons:
 * 15) *One of the promos say that it was supposed to be a new season of this show, when it’s barely the first season.
 * 16) *In the intro, Zora Lancaster’s hair was all brown, but she dyed it hot pink in the actual series.
 * 17) Worst of all, this show ultimately killed the Sonny with a Chance franchise.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The opening intro is fun and catchy to listen to here.
 * 2) Some funny moments here and there.
 * 3) The special guest stars from other popular Disney Channel shows make great performances.
 * 4) The setting looks good.
 * 5) Some of the sketches are good.

Reception
This show currently has a 4.6/10 on IMDb.
