Enter the world of Lizzie McGuire at your own risk, a world where the 13-year-old and her best friends Miranda and Gordo ride the roller-coaster existence of a middle schooler. Every day is a popularity contest, every class is a crisis and on top of everything else, Lizzie has to deal with her annoying little brother, Matt, and a mom who means well despite her nosey tendencies. You always know what Lizzie is thinking, and if she can't quite say it, you can be sure her animated alter ego will.

Kelly Lawler USA Today 11/10/2021
The relatable storylines (shopping for your first bra, not being able to afford stylish new jeans) and Lizzie's animated inner monologue elevates the series above its contemporaries. Go to Full Review
Lynne Heffley Los Angeles Times 01/15/2020
The peppery multimedia effects are fast and fun, but they don't do more than spice up a bland likability that seems to be at the show's core, unless future episodes dig a tad deeper into real-life teen territory. Go to Full Review
Katie Minard Entertainment Weekly 10/23/2018
It's awkward, it's fun, and boy, does it have a great lesson. Go to Full Review
Ellie Gettinger Common Sense Media 10/23/2018
4/5
The Lizzie McGuire depiction of friendship is fairly realistic and very positive. Within the narrative of the show and through a plot device... the audience gets a good picture of what it means to grow up for both boys and girls. Go to Full Review
