I actually like this programme.

Warning: Spoilers
I've read reviews of Kerching on IMDb, and frankly,I've not seen one positive review, until now. I actually like Kerching. Kerching is about a teenage boy named Taj Lewis, in order to make £1,000,000 for his mother, he sets up a website called rudeboy. The website offers a lot of interesting things, if only Taj, and his 2 friends - Danny and Seymour can stop Taj from getting exposed. I find this show quite funny and I enjoy watching it. The acting is O.K., but it can definitely be better, the characters are funny, especially Danny Spooner, Taj's friend , his stupidity is what makes him funny. and Taj's other friend Seymour. Also Carlton, the owner of the café'e called "The Chill." We never see him, we only hear him. Taj's younger brother Omar, and his older sister Missy is funny too. And Missy's best friend Kareesha. So many times Taj's has almost got exposed, almost. As well as the comedy, the drama in Kerching such as love life and the loss of loved ones makes this programme great.

A fantastic kids show!
mac-queen9921 July 2009
Whilst reading through the comments left for this show, I couldn't help but notice that a large percentage of the reviewers had either not actually watched any episodes of the show either all the way through or of their own free will. The thing about Kerching! is that it's a children's show, FOR CHILDREN so obviously if your older it is going to seem cheesy, forced, and probably stupid. I even found one person saying the sets were stupid, but I remember as an eight year old wondering why Taj had ikea icecube moulds on his wall, and also wondering if my parents would let me stick some on mine (they didn't). Yeah, it can be annoying, the acting could be better and some of the characters do really weird things with their hair, but as a kids show, I rate it 10/10. Compared to the stuff they air in its place today, well, lets just say I wish it'd be re-aired. DVD release, anyone?

Rather stupid comedy for younger viewers
chris_gaskin1231 November 2005
Although I've not watch an episode properly of Kerching, what I have seen of it is rather stupid. It is one of those shows where everybody shows off and acts silly.

This is about a schoolboy wheeler dealer, a sort of young Del Boy. Most of his deals go wrong anyway.

Cheap looking sets, very annoying canned laughter and totally unfunny just sums this up. Bad acting too.

Despite it being a bad show, the cast includes two ex soap stars: Devon Anderson (Billy Jackson from EastEnders) and Danny Young (Warren Baldwin from Coronation Street).

Just how this got commissioned in the first place I will never know. A stupid title too.

Very, very annoying.
marshallmovies20 May 2004
Firstly I would like to point out that I only know of the show due to my younger sister always watching it. I find it the most annoying program on TV. There is nothing funny about any of the 'jokes' and the canned laughter is unbearable. The show would work much better if filmed in front of a live audience. That way the laughter would show just how 'unfunny' the show is. However I give credit to the acting talents of the young cast. It sickens me however to think that they'll look back on the show in the future and see how bad their first TV show was. The show links in well with the overall annoying voices and style of the CBBC presenters. Why the youth of today need to be shouted at so much is beyond me. That is all.

A Great Show
catlester15 October 2006
I've noticed that a lot of people who post on the "Kerching!" board seem to hate this show, which I actually find very surprising. I think it's one of the best British kids' shows there is. It's a shame it's ending because it's very funny (if a bit cheesy sometimes) and has great characters. The main character is a little like Del Boy, although quite a lot smarter. With his 2 best friends he tried to make a million pounds for his mum by starting an online business and adopting a pseudonym of "Rudeboy". His friends are Seymour (who likes to cook) and Danny (who is simple minded and the comic relief character). Throughout the show, some characters have left and new ones have come in, but it's always been entertaining and improving.

Kerching !
Caz_9098 October 2005
Okay,I must admit,at 1st,this show really got on my nerves.But it wasn't so bad once when I saw the other episodes.I reckon that the first series was a bit of a let down but the other series are way better, I like the jokes, but some can be totally weird. I think one of the other things I like are the characters, although some can be annoying. But some of the other things I don't are like when they say 'Danny you bin bag!' I don't see how that line can get people laughing... So I think they need to update the jokey-humorous lines, to something we can all get. Another thing was the audience. The laughs can be quite annoying and often get in the way, like you can't here what they've said. But other than that I think its great, its a typical kids show that you got to find a little funny.
