Victorious (stylized as VICToriOUS) is an American musical sitcom created by Dan Schneider. It ran from March 27th, 2010 to February 2nd, 2013. The series stars Victoria Justice, Leon Thomas III, Ariana Grande, and Matt Bennett.

Plot
The show follows Tori Vega, an aspiring pop star who gets transferred to Hollywood Arts, a performing arts school.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) For starters, the show has some unlikable characters.
 * 2) * mh:loathsomecharacters:Tori Vega, the main protagonist, is a self-centered girly girl who often takes advantage of those around her. She acts very unintelligent most of the time and is basically a Mary Sue. In addition, she has the most foot fetish scenes out of the cast.
 * 3) ** Worse, despite being written as a "nice girl", she often does bad stuff and usually never gets punished for it, making her a Karma Houdini.
 * 4) * Cat Valentine, while tolerable, is a one-dimensional comic relief who has little-to-no personality. Plus, she gets flanderized in season 3, where she becomes an annoying and whiny idiot.
 * 5) * mh:loathsomecharacters:Jade West is a cliched Alpha Bitch who has a very short temper and treats those around her like dirt. She also gets very little character development throughout the series.
 * 6) * Robbie Shapiro, despite being a likable character, can be rather annoying at times.
 * 7) ** In addition, similar to Kyle from Fanboy & Chum Chum, his cliche of being treated like crap is insulting, turning him into a butt-monkey, a character who gets hurt by everyone in the show for little to no (if not any) apparent reason at all.
 * 8) Much like The Wacky World of Tex Avery, it features a lot of content that is too weird, inappropriate and disturbing for a kids' show.
 * 9) * In "Freak the Freak Out", Tori does a wild take on her sister Trina by lying over her waist and then sitting in her frontal area.
 * 10) * In several of Tori's song and dance numbers, she wears an outfit that reveals much of her cleavage (especially her legs). In addition, she dances and sings in a very sexy manner.
 * 11) * There are also various other instances of disturbing moments and uncomfortable imagery, such as:
 * 12) ** Trina having a swollen tongue in "Cat's New Boyfriend"
 * 13) ** Tori getting into a fight with Jade
 * 14) ** Tori rubbing her face against Jade's breasts twice while playing Jade's husband in "Tori & Jade's Play Date"
 * 15) ** Tori sitting on Cat for an extended period of time and spanking her (which Cat seems to enjoy as a masochist would), followed by Jade joining her in sitting on Cat
 * 16) ** Cat putting Tori's feet in her mouth
 * 17) ** Tori feeling Jade's forehead, cheeks, and collarbone, and being stopped by Jade saying "Having fun there?" before feeling her chest in "Survival of the Hottest"
 * 18) * The show is also filled to the brim with foot fetish jokes, which include Tori having ketchup poured onto her bare feet in one episode, and Cat putting Tori's feet into her mouth in another.
 * 19) The humor, for the most part, is below average, as it mostly focuses on mean-spiritedness and gross out humor. There are tons of innuendos (yes, even more so than any of the other shows produced by Schneider), to the point that it makes the show look more like an adult show than a kids show. In fact, there are so many innuendos in this show, that a page was made on the official Victorious Wiki, listing down the innuendos present in the show's episodes.
 * 20) Many of the episode plots range from nonsensical and childish to disturbing, especially in the third season.
 * 21) It is heavily mean-spirited, especially towards Robbie, as almost all of the episodes have the characters act like jerks to each other. Not even Dan Schneider's other shows like iCarly, Henry Danger, and Drake & Josh were this mean-spirited!
 * 22) It has many bad morals, such as:
 * 23) * Stealing
 * 24) * Bullying
 * 25) * Theft
 * 26) * Lying
 * 27) * Cheating
 * 28) * Hurting others' feelings
 * 29) * Fighting
 * 30) The character designs are very sexualized, especially with Tori, Cat and Trina's designs. Additionally, they're unfitting into a show created by Schneider as they fit more into a Disney Channel show instead. This makes for lots of uncomfortable scenes.
 * 31) The show ended on a cliffhanger. Tori was supposed to achieve her dream of becoming a pop star, but the outcome was never resolved when the show got canceled, thus making the entire show pointless and moot.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The series' concept of a teenage girl getting transferred to a performing arts school is a good idea on paper but is executed rather poorly due to the reasons mentioned above.
 * 2) The acting is pretty good, especially with Victoria Justice as Tori, and special mention goes to her singing voice, which is very beautiful.
 * 3) Most of the other characters are tolerable such as Andre Harris, Robbie Shapiro, Trina Vega, Beck Oliver, Rex Powers and Sinjin van Cleef. Cat was also likable before Season 3.
 * 4) The songs in this show are very good, which makes sense considering its status as a musically inclined sitcom.
 * 5) Tori and Cat have cute character designs, despite them looking out of place in a DanWarp show.
 * 6) The show improved slightly in its third season, but that really isn't saying much.
 * 7) It has a fair share of good episodes, such as "Tori & Jade's Play Date".
