The best part is that users can watch their favorite shows and any episodes that they may have missed. 
Parents must be give permission for their tweens to access the message boards and any inappropriateness is taken down immediately. 
Review
I figure if I am forced to watch these shows with my tweens, I should be aware of what exactly this station is all about. It is easy to use, safe for my tween, and a great way for tweens to get better at technology and programs like message boards. When tweens want access to the message boards parents must give permission and by doing so, get daily updates on their child's actions.
