Now i know that there are talented children actors out there, i grew up watching disney and nick sitcoms and as an adult still find them entertaining. Unfortunately the kid actors in this are just awful, the stories in the show are just uncreative. Its such a neat idea but needs a bit of work. If youre very young i definitely see how this would be entertaining, but if youre an adult watching with those children then you might want to tune out.

As of recently in my opinion, Disney Channel has been pumping some pretty good shows as of lately even in the live action department a little bit. Aside from Bunk'd, Sydney to the Max, Fast Layne, Ravens Home, Coop and Cami, and Andi Mack all range from tolerable to really good. While I give Just Roll with it a little bit of credit for being outside the box and creative with its setup for episodes, I still didn't enjoy it. The mix of improv, pranks/stunts, random things happening out of the blue, and live studio audience while also trying to tell a structured story just doesn't work. All these aspects of the show attack one another and took me out of the mood in several episodes. The jokes and pranks and stunts in this show are really over the top and in your face much like the show itself which to me made it feel extremely unfunny. Just Roll tried way too hard to be funny and it come across to me more forced than anything and really annoying. The show just can't mix the whole improv and breaking the wall jokes with a story, it just doesn't work that way. The acting by both the kids and adults sucked, I didn't think they were horrible I think it's just the material they had to work with boiled down to screaming and overreacting every second instead of actually taking time to build their characters. Just Roll with it was just a bad show plain and simple Disney Channel can make so much better than this. I give a little props for trying to change up the format of the show making it different from other life action sitcoms on Disney Channel.
I'm turning 21 in a few months and I'm not the target audience for this show, but that doesn't mean Disney Channel shouldn't at least try to make shows that appeal to older audiences as well as kids. I give the show credit for a non-stereotyped, racially diverse, blended family, and the actors do seem to be at least trying, but my praise for the show ends there. Just Roll With It tried too hard to be funny and instead ended up being annoying, obnoxious and overly hyperactive. I found myself cringing and thinking, "What the hell did I just see?" instead of laughing. You probably won't find a child older than 12 wanting to sit through this show. Disney Channel cancelled Andi Mack, an actual quality show with themes that kids are never too young to learn about, due to complaints from Donald Trump fawning mothers, but they're promoting Just Roll With It? Honestly, Andi Mack, Raven's Home, Sydney to the Max and Stuck in the Middle are the only quality sitcoms Disney Channel has made in recent years, but with the exception of those shows, the network hasn't had a good quality sitcom since Austin & Ally. That's only my personal standpoint.

It's not funny. It's dumb. Is Disney that desperate for a show it has to create something like this. There is no flow to it. Stops and starts just so the audience can decide which stupid stunt they want to see. What a waste of time. I'm sorry for the actors.

Creative, out of the box. Takes great actors for this show to do what they do. Having to stop in the middle of the scene, improv, then go back and reset. They get the audience going and heavily involved like one big party with a D.J.

I would've given this show a 10 if there was no annoying kids voting for the stupidest things that make no sense. All the audience wanted was to get the actors messy, and they don't care about the plot. This show has the stupidest audience in any show.

The show is OKAY! Just watching the show you would honestly never really know that the Tobie Windham and Suzi Barrett characters are a couple because there's no connection nor does it give off that vibe that they're in a relationship. I've watched a few episodes and I still don't really know or understand the purpose of it... it has a few funny moments in there, but other times it's pretty corny, like it tries just a little too hard to be funny when it's really not. And another thing that annoys me is the guy who plays the "Lil Pouty" character... smh smh smh.... i assume he's a mimick of the "so-called" rapper Tekashi69, it just seems like an appropriation of a culture all gone wrong. If they could take the gold teeth out of his mouth and the tattoos off of his face and get him into some regular clothes "Lil Pouty" would be alright... the show does too much lol smh

THIS SHOW IS........REMARKABLE!!!! I also like the fact that they added the father as another cast member as a great way to spice things up. At least I can say one thing about this show it doesn't use a freaking laugh track, it's in a studio in front of a live audience. Great improv show from Disney a show that kids and adults can watch. if you HATE this show then you must either be blind or deaf.

I have tried multiple times to watch this with my son but the acting is just horrible. This coming from someone who watched every Hannah Montana episode with my older kids. I can handle almost anything on tv but this show. It's like nails slowly going down a chalkboard. It's cringe.

I love pretty much everything Disney, and we have watched Disney Jr. and Disney religiously for many years. This show is extremely difficult to get down and keep down however! The actors are doing the best they can with the material given, but argghhhhh. How on Earth is Andi Mack cancelled and this and Pup Academy spun up?? Makes no sense!! Andi Mack could have seemingly had a seven year run into high school!

I am not sure who thought this would be a good concept. I am not even sure if this counts as improv, but sadly the things they throw at there actors are so ridiculous that they can't even improvise. A couple of actors I don't even believe know how to improvise- or act for that matter. Given a different format maybe these actors would be okay, but sadly I am not sure what opportunities they will get after this disaster of a show. So bad that there is no real storyline to any episode because so convoluted with what is thrown in. Now to get my 9 year old who agrees it is "not too good" to stop watching it.
The comedy is imprecise, and they don't have to stop a scene by letting the audience choose something stupid for the cast to do it's not necessary. It's better if the show is normal. No audience. No kids choosing what's next to do.

I like the concept. Me and my 8 year old can sit and watch this one and I don't want to pull my hair out. It isn't a perfect show of course, but my little boy can watch this and I don't have to worry about bad language and he thinks it's funny. Win for us.

I am liking this show, its something unique with a different format. I like the fact that they are using a live audience instead of a laugh track. Whoever hates on this is just hating this on purpose Lol. There is nothing wrong with this show. It's not a corny tween show with a laugh track. At least Disney is trying something different.

Great show! Great concept. This is a show for kids, so of course most people reviewing here won't like it.

This needs to be a tour of some sort. The improv of the entire cast is great and probably harder than people think. The sheer mayhem and unexpected chaos while still making any sort of sense of a TV show is great fun for everyone. My 9 year old son loves it, my 6 year old girl loves it and I love it. Hoping it continues for awhile.

At first, I wasn't with the idea of Disney producing a show that involved the audience; I thought, "this is probably going to be super cringey" but, after watching the first two episodes on DisneyNOW, I genuinely enjoyed it. I thought the improve of it all would be bad, but these actors pulled it off well. Was it Oscar-award winning? No, but it's better than you would think. The dad is by far the funniest with his improved lines in the scenes. My favorite part was definitely the reactions of the actors when they found out what they had to do. It made me laugh, especially the reaction of the dad and Owen. Do I honestly believe that the audience has 100% say on what actually happens? No, there's no way, but that's not a bad thing, I still enjoyed all the options. I would definitely recommend for anybody to watch, and the people that's are giving it low ratings are judging this show way too hard. It's a children's tv show, what where you expecting? The improv, the stunts, the live audience, it mixed well together where it wasn't too annoying, but it was pretty well put together.

This is simply a fun show. Stopping at the sound of a horn so actors can improv an audience chosen scene is a great pressure cooker forbthe cast. However they just roll with it and the results is real on the spot comedy. bravo 👏

Wow! What a show!! It's like a Disney SNL, the comedy is quick and they're having a good time with this show. This is my first time watching it and I'm very impressed hope we get a season 3.

Great show that I love to watch with my daughter. We never know what to expect. The improv is pretty good. We hope there will be more new episode soon.
