"The A-Teens" Meet "Hangtime"
If you are reading this and wondering what the heck a "S Club 7" actually is, then you are probably a fan of either Rachel Stevens or Hannah Spearritt looking for things they did early in their careers. Rachel and Hannah appear to be the only members of the cast who have been visible in the industry since the BBC show ended and the group broke up.

I say "group" because the premise of the thing is that they are a seven member musical group-imagine "The A-Teens" playing the main characters on "Hangtime" and you will have a pretty good idea of the concept. Like "Hangtime" they placed a premium on diversity although they shot themselves in the foot by turning the black guy into a "step-and-fetch-it" caricature who is patronized by the other six members of the group.

The "Miami 7" tape opens with the group's first performance at a Florida resort. This becomes unintentionally hilarious when the owner makes them do "Tie a Yellow Ribbon" as their first song. Then they rebel and insist on doing their own songs-the producers try to dial up the contrast between the geriatric first number and the youthful zest of their natural style. Amusingly, other than exposing their abs there is almost no difference since the "S Club 7" style is just an updated version of "Tony Orlando and Dawn".

Although the group actually had some hits, the BBC show just reveals their acting and performing inadequacies. The 1999 "Miami 7" episodes on the VHS tape have some historical interest because even a casual observer can see that Rachel and Hannah stand out from from the others talent-wise and charisma-wise.

A word of warning-although the VHS tape I watched was new it would not play smoothly and jammed frequently, the only tape that has ever done this in my player.

Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

The Best!!
This is one of the best shows ever!! All that is missing is that they really need to release the Complete Series of L.A. on VHS and DVD. Now, That would be better than the best!! You should buy this VHS if your a big S Club fan.

Great video!!
I am a huge S Club fan and I love this video. It includes about 40 minutes of behind the scenes footage and interviews, including a tour of Pauls hotel room. Every fan should get this. The episodes are 3 episodes Howards Hotel, The Blue Chevy, and Wind Resistance. The epidoes don't include the first episode that was played on TV though. It also comes with stickers.

It was cool!!!
Man let me tell you someting, if you haven't seen this magnificent peice then you really haven't lived. This movie is just so DANK. I watch this movie over and over and over again. I'd put it up there with breckfest at tiffinys. And that Rachel Stevens is just so hot she stops my heart every time I see her. I think the music goes really well with the video also. If you like groups like slipknot, static X, Coal Chamber, and Head P.E. then you'll love the music in this. It was cool,, big truck

This show is so funny, I watch it with my son( so its not just for kids) sclub 7 goes to miami in search of fame instead they become howards ( the hotel manager) workers. They go through different experience , but the best part is the performences, their songs are the best. I recomend all of it!!!!!!!!!!
