I have so many problems with them. First, what was the point of Lorena? Really, I mean she did nothing really,all she was is for Jake to date someone and she never really was a part of the band. By the time they made her a co-manager was in the last few eps.
Mark just seemed like a poor man's Matt Garrison.
And I didn't minded Jake at first but, once Matt left and it became Jake's band he just became awful and so did his personality. I don't know why. I guess cause he's bully act and I'm a wannbe rebel got old real fast. In fact when it looked like Tony and Sly could kick his ass.
And they started to spend to much time at school making it a STTB clone with a band. Now to say it wasn't one before but, before then CD had somewhat it's own ID.
