Editing The Famous Jett Jackson (section)

==Critical reaction==
Response to the show was generally positive. Laura Fries of ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]'', the Hollywood [[trade paper]], noted in her review of ''Jett Jackson: The Movie'' that "Young serves as an appealing role model, much like [[Sarah Michelle Gellar]]'s ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' --someone who can fulfill young, action craving audiences without the gratuitous violence. There's a sense of empowerment associated with these sort of roles, and handled correctly, they function as an excellent allegory for the confusing teenage years." Although she mentions "contrived plot devices", she also refers to the series as "clever" and "an extremely entertaining concept".<ref>{{cite web
