Storyline

Sam Puckett has been touring the West Coast by motorcycle, and stops in Los Angeles. She witnesses Cat Valentine being thrown into the back of a garbage truck, and rescues her. They become friends, and Cat convinces her to become roommates after Cat's grandmother moves to a retirement home. To make money, rather than getting traditional after school jobs, they form an after-school babysitting business that leads them into a series of comical adventures. Also involved in their lives are Dice, their next door neighbor, who is notorious for aiding people for money, Cat's cheerful and supportive grandmother, Nona, who decided to move into "Elderly Acres", which is a home for the aged, and Goomer, a dim-witted professional MMA fighter whom Dice manages.

Finally a good nick show for tweens

I don't know about you guys, but I think that nickelodeon had really been falling apart. The kids shows are really annoying for tweens and the teen shows are too inappropriate(with the exception of Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide). But earlier this day, my friend showed me the pilot episode of Sam And Cat, and I have to say that it was really, really good! Since the show premiered last week that is the only episode I've been able to watch, but I'll make sure to catch the others. For those of you that don't know, the pilot episode of Sam And Cat introduces the meeting of Sam and Cat and the rest of the series follows them as roommates. Sam is an actress who is on the show iCarly. She is from Seattle, but decides to share an apartment with Kat in L.A. Her slightly sarcastic and smart aleck, but lovable nature gives her the perfect character. However Cat is quite the opposite. She is often clueless, but she still is good-natured and in one episode she dove into a trash can to rescue a boys' cat. The jokes are super and it's an all around amazing show!
