I felt, that as pilots go, this one was actually pretty good. Often times you'll find pilots that have unknown back-story, as Teen Titans and Gossip Girl do that we discover along the way, however Jem is a very well laid out pilot that fills you in on everything about the series moving forward and about the series in the back-story in one simple package.
I have to say that the lifestyle Jerrica leads is very empowering, she cares more about the children she takes care of, rather than the music business. I find it inspirational to see a series about someone in the media world and limelight that doesn't involve the lead doing drugs, sleeping around, and being an all around bad role model.
I do enjoy the music, it is contagious, often I will find myself humming songs from the series for days on end. It is the peak of 80's, the fashion, the story-lines, it is like an inspirational soap opera for kids (which does sound weird to say those too genres together) I haven't seen anything like it since.
