What is Moody’s point about?
Moody’s Point is an over-the-top parody of teen dramas/soap operas, mainly, Dawson’s Creek. The sketch focuses on Moody ( Amanda Bynes ), an emotionally exaggerated teen whose mother is lost in a hot air balloon and whose father is missing a toe. It featured her friends, such as Brie (Lauren Petty), Moody’s best friend; Misty (Molly Orr), a girl who is always upset and easily offended; the nerdy Spalding ( Taran Killam ), a boy who has a huge crush on Moody but gets criticized by her in a ridiculous way and constantly has objects flung at him from beyond the screen; and Sternum ( Matthew Botuchis ), a brooding bad boy who responds to every question by asking the opposite question. Each episode had its own plot. The last episode ends with Moody finding out that her real parents are circus trapeze artists named “The Flying Worthsbergs”. At the end of the episode, the screen shows the words “To Be Continued”, but The Amanda Show was cancelled shortly thereafter ending the sketch on a cliffhanger. Creator Dan Schneider had pitched Nickelodeon that “Moody’s Point” be spun-off as its own series, but the show was never green-lit. The theme of the song is “For All I Am”, by Lisa Smith.
