What's up with alex Part 1 (1of3) Episode 59

[boci122]

It's a bad thing to have stuff stolen, but stop bringing expensive crap to school...

[mercyhurstchic]

gosh I miss the 90s

[yourboycal]

lmfo special radar that finds words

[mattridgers]

i had a class size of 8 one time... having small class sizes isnt that big of a deal

[tical500]

I never noticed how hot Alex was!!

[katiebrockert]

now they changed mrs. fernandez!? damn. dropping like flies

[Simpledreamer]

How come they broke into her locker to steal her tape player but not her tapes?! Did she own Lenni's "You Gotta Believe"?

[synyster004]

@Simpledreamer too funny :)

[Simpledreamer]

PETA broke into Tina's locker! :(

[AMskyesTV]

did he just say you go boy lmao hahahahahhahaahha

[AbabaJahnohoy]

KEVIN MORE PIMP THAN ALEJANDRO. I DONT KNOW WHATS REAL ANYMORE

[natORGANIZATION]

1:11 LOL the locker is like 2 feet in front of her and she didnt see it?

[suresage]

Alex: I have a try out with the Dragons after school.

Jamal: Oooh. You go boy.

Alex: What?

Jamal: I said you go boy, you big strong boy, you.

Alex: That's it. No more sleepovers at your house.

Hector: Can I sleep over at your house with you Jamal?

[randomemowannabe]

@suresage omg. that made my day! xD

[yoshiemai]

I hate how they keep switching all the actors.

[kkslider6]

Okay, so if Alex is "becoming a man", that makes it not creepy that I'm attracted to him, right?

[leeleelayla5]

i had such a crush on alex back then

[boomkittiethe3rd]

a new mom too?? D: oh no!

[davinomyster]

" You Go Boy "... Whoa Jamal, That was Quite Gay.... I see where U were going with it, because back then Martin was the hot show, but Notice that Gina said it to Martin and Vice Versa. Male to Female...

[nessagonz3]

Ugh alex and gabys dad always got on my nerves!!!

[ModularNick]

"Another robbery!" great deduction, Tina

[don77sicily]

TINA i had a crush on shoot stil do if i was to see her today knowing me i ask her to marry me

[Dorkeeqirl]

whoooaaaa. i was always a "Rob" girl...

but in the Ep? heeeeyyy Alex ;]

[thebjm1967]

i always had a crush on alex! i wonder what he is doing today!

[jayseize1]

"Your sheepskin?!"

Damn, never knew Tina was a freak. Doesn't she know sheepskins are only good against preventing pregnancy?

[jayseize1]

"You're lock's been broken!"

Thank you for pointing that out, Jamal..as you hold in your hand, said lock. The locker door blatantly swung open didn't lead me to believe anything was wrong.

but i still love this show i don" know why

[chunkylover86]

Ghostwriter should help them solve the mystery of why Jamal is wearing that vest

[sweetmary116]

that was so sweet of alex to give his jacket to Tina. Why can't any guys give their jacket to their girls?

[rkoguy]

@sweetmary116 I would.

[DizzyedUpGirl]

"Someone broke into Maria's locker"

And Ale is magically supposed to know which Maria he is talking about?

[Game4564]

@merciless41582 lol

[wearspjsinpublic]

"You go boy" should never be uttered out loud.

[Nandanyx]

ahh I remember I was like 9 years old when I used to watch this program and all the characters seemed so old to me lol

[fullmetalking1]

this was the greatest children tv shows of all time alex was the koolist dude on gh

[Miracle490d]

8:03 THAT'S NOT COOL!!!!! Why does JAMAL think he's better than that kid? Nobody should change themselves to fit in with shallow people. Ghostwriter needs to....

....Ghostwriter needs to write Jamal a chewing out.

Ghost writer writes- So Jamal you don't like being around this kid because of the way he dresses and his hobbies aren't considered IN? What do you know about me? I lost my memory remember? What if I was some geek dressed in plad or something? Would you have snubbed me too?

[goldilex]

@Miracle490d I don't think that it's so much that Jamal thinks Jeffrey is a uncool or that he's better than him, but Jeffrey is notoriously famous for being close friends with Calvin: the GW team's usual number one suspect in almost every case.

[Miracle490d]

@goldilex I didn't know that. They do dislike Calvin a lot. So he decides to dislike him by association. That is more understandable since Calvin goes out of his way to rub them wrong. It's been a long time since I've seen a lot of these episodes, so I didn't catch the connection. Glad to know they didn't write Jamal like that. it was more distrust along with disappointment.

[Miracle490d]

8:03 What's wrong with that kid?!!!! He seemed like a nice boy. Is Jamal TOO COOL and FULL of HIMSELF to hang with someone who's not popular?!!!!!! Whatta JERK!!!!!! I love this show and these characters, but right there Jamal needs an attitude adjustment. THAT'S NOT COOL!!!!! Why does he think he's better than him? Because the way he dresses or his hobbies aren't considered IN? I hate people like that. Nobody should change themselves to fit in with shallow people. Ghostwriter needs to....

[merciless41582]

@tnawcwvictoria you sound too hypocritical tna has no morals either yet you watch it and your name is proven of that

[merciless41582]

@tnawcwvictoria Then stop posting hypocrisy posts then

[greasydame]

Goodness, they sure do change up the characters a lot in this show. That is not Alex and Gaby's original mom. This one looks younger

[DukeDarkshadow]

If Tina's schoot ID was taken out of the jacket and thrown out, what would make them think the grocery list is still in the pocket?

And I think the Fernandezes have had a vampire infestation lately. That's why they keep those wreathes of garlic hanging right next to the doorway.

[alldayjay167]

for some reason because of Gaby i started to like Spanish Girls from a young age...lol

[kitakaoin131]

man i wish i had a boyfriend like alex!

[Thebrothersofmw2]

I am goin to leave a comment of a letter that alex/alejandro could write in Spanish...

[Gamemaster8888]

This, is a real teacher....or at least what teaching should be....if only children these days actually cared.....

[ralphfv]

Don't call my name... Don't call my name, Alejandro.

[ksisaacs]

"You go boy!" OMG, I haven't heard that in forever! That was so 90's!!!

[buffykay70]

alex was my childhood crush. loved this show

dont call my name, dont call my name alejandro, haha

[jOjOBayb]

i love this show

[9ansean]

Did anyone else notice the redheaded girl behind Kevin whispering "I think he's cute" before weaving to Alex at 7:49-7:51? Wonder is we'll see her again later in this storyline?

[midcoast007]

Do inner city schools really use student ID cards like the one Tina has ?

I grew up in rural Maine, and we never had stuff like this in grammar/ middle school.

I am thrilled that Ghost writer is coming to DVD, my sister and I watched this show all the time from grades 4- 6. I even read some of the paperback books Bantum published featuring new stories.

[NuBeginnin]

@midcoast007 Yes, but they vary. My middle school one just had my grade and photo. My high school one had photo, grade, graduation year, school mascot, trade, and was the school colors (gold/royal blue) middle school ID wasn't introduce until my 7th grade year, high school 9th grade 1st edition, 10th grade second edition.

[dmdpro5]

@midcoast007 yup and in my school in harlem NY we wernt allowed on school property with out them

[joshuamm1721]

I was glad when they stole her jacket..... that was an ugly ass jacket......and I luoveeeeeeee that show.. I can't wait for the DVD..

[SailorSaturn69]

Why isn't Héctor in the opening credits????

[wcoleman99]

i find it hard to believe that tina's parents would've been pissed when they found out her jacket was stolen out of her locker that was locked

[pinaybe]

I love how Alex puts his hand on Tina's shoulder!

[juannie88]

I remember when Calvin started to like Lenny. I always thought it was creepy when a kid that was a complete jerk would get a crush on a girl he tormented. That happened to me before.

[MatrimCuathon]

@juannie88

lol, in middle school the thing was, if you liked a girl you had to pretend you didnt. like, otherwise people would make fun of you. i remember some pretty funny/not nice jokes we'd make if a guy let slip who he liked. and of course we would run over and tell her. which is sooooo embarrassing no? so then you try to hide it. besides girls did it too. but of course, sexism much?, girls cant be "creepy".

[juannie88]

1:12 She didn't notice before that her locker was wide open? That should've been the first thing she saw.

[pnoyremix]

7:01 "how can we find out about this stuff?"

geeee I dunno sherlock, I don't think perhaps going to the LIBRARY would give u any help. dumb kid.

[SilentDrifter]

@pnoyremix Too bad Google wasn't around.

[PRdude]

I once said that season sets of Ghostwriter would be great. So I thought you'd all like to know that it'll become a reality come June 8th. Thanks to Shout! Factory.

[vietgrlterifa1]

I love how Tina and Alex decided to be friends and yet there are always little hints like this to show that something would develop between these two after they matured a little bit.

[mmatichuk27]

So distracting! I cracked up as soon as it came on the screen.

[beautifullybroken077]

oh and add TAPE recorder to that list lol i remember those... :S

[beautifullybroken077]

when that person said the thing about the stolen camera i pictures a digital camera...and then i was like ...wait...wrong picture, they weren't digital back then

[Kevindl1985]

Remember the video camera Tina always carried around? That thing was the size of a small car lol

[RyokenX5]

Lenni's hat is sooooo distracting.

I can't focus. I mean she has good hats usually, but dear god.

I wonder who has the better collection?

Her or Alex Mack.

[vedicger108]

I don't know if anyone noticed, but Alex's father has an American accent in the disclaimer.

[ThisIsWhereYouBelong]

that's alex's father speaking? haha, i thought it was some random old guy.

[Triad3Force]

the scariest phrase a teacher can say "break up into teams of two." Instant anxiety.

[dionarapthevicious]

Man, I do not remember the acting being this bad.

Best show ever.

[arlichar11]

i used to watch faithfully..but would go to school and discuss all the gay or stupid parts...it was kinda kooky,and bad acting,bad effects,bad dialogue

[Garrettk41]

"I believe a man deserves the respect of being called by his full name."

Actually, Kevin, a man deserves the respect of being called, uh, what he WANTS to be called.

[slynice]

u go boy?? lmao! dam Jamal actually said that...

[jpien]

serves her right for wearing animal

[rockangel019]

FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!

i thought alex and tina were dating??!!!

[cooldude5able]

They decided to be just friends in Don't Stop The Music.

[rockangel019]

oh man that sux!!!

[jah71185]

This was favorite episode... maybe because I had a crush on Alex....

[Gizmo8377]

I did too..... Alex was "Soooo Cute!" Rob was close behind him. I used to write a lot of GW fanfiction, I found one the other day Made me nostalgic.

[thebjm1967]

@jah71185 me too!

[shnizzlelillylex]

ah yes, the great 90's, when there were awesome kid shows and mtv had music :) LOL

[JiJi5701]

duh Tiina smh sometiimes dha team acts dumb

[FattestJack]

I would PLOW Alejandro's Mama while his Papa watched...

[ansirone]

oh shit tronic...hot brand!

[OMGitsMarika]

Sheep skin jacket? That sounds ugly...

[Boggy133]

Only the ghostwriter team would go to a school where "Urban Studies" was a class,

I mean, I'm all about diversity, but still...

but whatever this show is awesome, I loved it when I was 12 and I love it now...

[therockingviking]

i've got these muscles to keep more warm haha

[xxmaggieee]

I've never seen this one because they didnt play it on the-n because of the drugs.....

[meltwithyou92]

they was playing degrassi which dealt with these subjects and worse .... like stds and periods and condoms

[babolo]

This aired when it was still Noggin it turned in to The-N when they started playing Degrassi.

[zomghurtssogood]

I always have hated the unrealistic portrayal of class sizes on TV. If only I had 10 people in my classes growing up...

[hallaisback]

what's the name of the last show in the GW series

[Jettatore2]

It's called "Attack of the Slime Monster." It wasn't really intended as the final arc, but GHOSTWRITER lost its funding and the show was canceled.

[yatagarasean]

Well, every great show has to have an episode (or in Ghostwriters case, 3 episodes) where they talk about Drugs, and the quality of the show drops...

[pimpmonkette]

thats what tina gets for wearing animal skins

[Sairisn]

The guy playing Kevin looks so familiar! I wonder where I've seen him . . .

[Sairisn]

Hahaha, Jamal mocking Lenni was great. And damn, I was all about Rob, how did I miss Alex's extreme hotness?! If only both had stayed on the show . . .

[Boggy133]

i know,

rob was my crush....

[scrobin81]

Mine too.

[AmmaMama]

LOL at the male voice in the begininning w/Gaby's..creeeeppy

[Tephi92]

hahahaahaaa i thought the exact same thing!

[charmedcharmedsister]

I did, too! Yikes!

[baileelduende]

Why are you so hot Alex????

[don77sicily]

@baileelduende check him out now  he may give you a heart attack lol no much has change from his cute boy look lol

[PRdude]

This show still holds up to this day, in my opinion. DVD sets would be highly appreciated.

[smilinginside5]

Amen to that (The GW on DVD)

[tnawcwvictoria]

Right on.

[Kabman89]

jeffery makes jamal look like a midget!!

[sailorearth2007]

Boy do I know how Jamal feels, I was always getting stuck with the worst partners.

[whash03]

how bad was the acting in the first two min? very bad

[CleverCAB]

At the beginning of the GW theme, does it say "Ghostwriter...Word!" or "Ghostwriter...Where?"

[viewerenthusiast]

It says, "Ghostwriter...Word!"

[barrelracer1983]

Why is that teacher writing on the side of the chalkboard - usually my teachers use the middle.

[barrelracer1983]

hey, does anybody know how to get rid of the bars on the side of the youtube screen, since it widened a little?

[jollyunicorn]

is that tina! :O

b/c we're watching it in school, and she looks sooo different here!

[CTWcauseiMissyou]

aww tina and alex..theyre so cute.

[RealTime88]

Reminds me of my high school sweetheart. Isn't young love the best?

[hpnotiqpimp]

Tina says "I had to beg my mother and father for that jacket" but has anyone ever actually seen Tina's parents on this show?? I havent.. I think she's the only one who they dont show her parents.. hmm.. think about it =)

[ianmorris101]

We see her mom and younger sister in "Lost in Brooklyn", when that girl from Africa visits and Tina befriends her.

[barrelracer1983]

and in Over A Barrel

[smilinginside5]

Her mom is also in the 2nd story arc, the one with Lana Barnes. We also see Tina's brother in Over a Barrel. We see most of her dad in that one too. We never see Rob's mom (But we see his dad briefly in "to the light", and yet we haven't seen hector's parents either. Jamals mom we only see once or twice, and his dad we see most in the beginning of the series

[josueNEMeziz]

awebooooooooooo

esos si eran progamas

no los de ahorita

pinches mamadas

awebo fantasma escritor!!

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[LuckyLuciano123]

oh shit!! tina got jacked!!!

[MikeForbess]

It bet was someone from PETA who stole her jacket.

[dannyosgirl]

I can't believe I used to love this show! Back then it was so cool, now it just seems silly! It does take me back, though. I wanted to be just like them, I was in the club and everything!

[DoodleTaffy]

=DXD

I know,i mean,even though i didnt see it when it orignially came on pbs(i saw it on the N)i still rele enjoyed it nd did kinda wanted to be like them.:)

[daughteroftheking526]

I think I still have my casebook/ notebook I had used way back when... idk I still love it, but for different reasons then I did then.

[hpnotiqpimp]

haha so did i! i was in the club too.. i thought i was the only one..

[aussiecan]

If they write a report like they write their clues, the Ghostwriter team is fucked.

[metrosheek]

anybody notice that the handwriting in the notebook was always the same, no matter who wrote it

[MikeForbess]

It's pre-written.

[smilinginside5]

I honestly think that all the kids had to LEARN the handwriting, to make it all look the same, cuase if you notice, jamal has a slightly different style. His y's have a tail that goes underneath all the other letters, and that's a little different. I think there are SOME things that the kids actually do write, but they all have to write the same way.

[Jettatore2]

Yeah, they always got the same person from the prop department to do the handwriting. :-)

[lanay7]

When i had myspace I wrote to Gaby and she wrote back.I asked her about what she is doing and she told me about her band. She is really nice.

[12345ashly]

YOU GO, BOY!!

[VirtuousD]

Lol...Dudes are NOT supposed to say that !!!!!

[Kreymore]

When you were younger, you didn't mind it. That's all that matters.

[barrelracer1983]

yeah, just things I'm noticing now that I'm older.

[baileelduende]

alex was the sexiest middle schooler ever! lol

[metrosheek]

hell yah.

[barrelracer1983]

That warning @ the beginning scared me when I was younger.

[cubanitaa]

i remember that commercial at the beg of this lol. i luv this show, thank u so much.

[MsRachelMo]

I wanted one of those Dragons jackets so bad when I was a kid.

[fizzo716]

Jamal, "You Go Boy!!!" lol...too corny

[jcc2k8]

i had huge crushes on lenny and both gabbys... where are they?

[TiggerificTris]

who's the other gaby??

[jcc2k8]

the other gabby was Melissa Gonzales. she was in the last 2 episodes, slim monster and maltese falcon

[Kabman89]

the real gabby (mayteana morales) has a myspace page and makes music with a band called the pimps of joytime.

[jcc2k8]

lol@ pimps of joytime... wow I need to check that out. never knew she was a singer

[Kabman89]

me neither until a couple days ago. she's still pretty, too.

[boci122]

"lenni" is now the voice on Swifer ads, the voice over woman that is...

[starwarspunk]

alex and gaby have a new mom lolz.

[zapjaste]

Haha wasn't this the episode that Noggin wouldn't reshow because it had a joint in it?!

[tanunu85]

how could they not show this on noggin as scandalous as degrassi is... (don't get me wrong though, i like degrassi)

[sbpchick]

they did put it on noggin for a while

[davinp]

Remember that Jeffery was friends with Calvin in the Am I Blue? eposide

[boci122]

looking back on this now...alex was way cute in the later seasons..

though it took them a LOONG time to figure out cases, but they had excellent handwriting, lol.

[dpeal]

this episode showed that alex had the most growth of all the team members

[schoolgyrl6]

Which is crazy because jamal is 2 years older than him. Jamal was 15 when the season started, i think alex was 13.

[queensha27]

i was a GW fan when i was a kid...

[Subzero20044]

What about the New Ghostwriter Mysteries?

[Nicoleiia]

they suck.

[JCStrickland]

id love to find them on here. im a huge kristian ayre fan

[smilinginside5]

The "new ghostwriter" was cancelled only after 1 season of a couple episodes due to low ratings, lack of interest.

[ultravioletskies07]

Thank goodness! They sucked so badly!

[davinp]

I watched this entire story when it was previously posted YouTube. One thing GW never touched one is smoking cigarettes - which like drugs is still a problem.

[stckybandits]

Ya but cigarettes and alcohol are both legal so since marijuana is illegal they make it out to seem much more of a problem and dangerous, and totally forget about the problems we already legalized!

[NaveenSwati]

ur the best for posting this =]

[UsagiNeko4Ever]

Thank you for posting this. I've been wanting to see this one since I learned they never played it on Noggin.

[CLO619]

be sure 2 get the one with max mouse

[thelyokocode]

Yes! The computer one was one of the best!
