Great DVD Release 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

Instant Star has been a popular teen favorite the past few seasons. Fans of the show will be pleased with the DVD release of the first season. The season one DVD includes the first 13 episodes of the show. The downside is that season one aired so long ago these episodes seem like light years ago. It would have been good if they would have released the first and second season together on DVD.

The first season chronicles Jude's semi rise to stardom. After winning the Instant Star competition she receives a record contract with G Major Records. Her producer is "Little Tommy Q," who used to be in a boy band named Boyz Attack. Tommy is all grown up now and he is her producer who she has a crush on it seems. Adding to the story is her close relationship with her male childhood best friend Jamie. At this time in the series, Jude is still in high school and living with her parents who are still married. Her sister Sadie is a little older than her but they attend the same school.

The first season is primarily about her recording songs for G Major and dealing with various unexpected trappings of sudden fame. First she has conflict with a fellow recording artist named Eden. Then she finds love with a rapper named Shay. Things really heat up when her and her producer Tommy share an unexpected kiss on Jude's 16th birthday. It's all not a smooth ride as she also has to deal with her parents crumbling marriage.

Instant Star is a television series packed with drama. It's a series that teens and adults will find intriguing and it was created by the same people who created the series Degrassi The Next Generation. Bonus features includes deleted scenes, bloopers, cast auditions, music performances and more.

Editorial Review:

And the first ever Instant Star is …. Jude Harrison!

Jude is thrilled to be the first season winner of the Instant Star TV show. But after the fanfare, with a record contract in hand and a pile of dreams, she is hit by a stark reality. Will Jude be able to make it on her own or will she be forced to change by her record company? What will her new life be like? The claws of the music industry come out immediately and Jude is faced with some serious decisions. Will Jude be able to "play the game" or will she quickly become yesterday's news?

Instant Star is about a girl Jude Harrison, who wins a talent contest and is thrown into the music industry. Season two deals with more drama between her and Tommy. Characters are introduced. This is the best show in the world.

I never had a chance to see this show on The N, but watching on DVD has been great. I love the music and of course each episode has at least one song.

Editorial Review:

Jude returns from her tour to find a different G Major and a boyfriend with huge expectations. The stress is almost too much to handle and Jude turns to a new friend to relieve a little stress that gains her some unwanted attention. It's up to Jude to get serious about her career and wrap her second album with or without the help of your producer and the label. Can Jude keep her career afloat despite all the drama?Contains episodes 14-26 Genre: ANIMATION/ADULT SWIM UPC: 704400086380
