The Baby-Sitters Club (2020)	comment	Outspoken tomboy and seventh-grader Kristy Thomas (Sophie Grace) convinces her two childhood friends — her shy and closest friend Mary Anne Spier (Malia Baker) and the artsy Claudia Kishi (Momona Tamada) — to start a babysitting club in order to cut down on Internet-related hassle for their neighborhood. Joining them is Claudia's new friend Stacey McGill (Shay Rudolph), a chic girl from New York City, and later Mary Anne's new friend Dawn Schafer (Xochitl Gomez in season 1, Kyndra Sanchez in season 2), a passionate activist from California. The girls not only have their ups and down with their babysitting charges, but also often deal with issues in their personal lives, whether it be family problems or boy crushes.This is a modern adaptation of the 1980s-2000s book series The Baby-Sitters Club, produced by Netflix and given a Setting Update to 2020. The series ran for two seasons before being cancelled in March 2022 by Netflix.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: Downplayed. The series is still light-hearted but some aspects are played up - characters' personal issues are a little more angsty, Stacey's diabetes is treated much more seriously here than in the books (including a cyberbullying campaign of a video showing her experiencing a diabetes-induced grand mal seizure), and Jamie Newton is about five seconds away from being hit by a car when the Baby-Sitters Club find him alone on the street.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_1551c0d9	comment	Obnoxious Entitled Housewife: The baby-sitters run into these types as clients on rare occasions. The mother in the parent group gathered after Stacey's video was leaked. She is rather stone-faced and unsympathetic, saying that Stacey's diabetes might affect her babysitting the children which gets the other parents worried until Dr. Johannsenn and Kristy point out that Stacey is responsible for the kids she watches and her health and that the older Baby-Sitters Agency left a four-year-old unsupervised. Natalie Barrett is a perky variation of the trope, as she feels entitled to Dawn's time (even off the clock) and runs the younger girl ragged to watch her children, pick up her house, vent to her about her divorce, and help her run her lines for auditions.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_15b2cab3	comment	In Episode 5, Mary Anne encourages Dawn to join the club and reassures her that she will be welcomed by everyone. Although Kristy coldly resisting the idea and reluctantly giving her a trial run shows otherwise, Dawn proves herself as a baby-sitter and becomes closer to Kristy, and she's made an official member at the end of the episode.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_184e7708	comment	Hands-Off Parenting: Implied with the Pikes. Dierdre explains to Stacey and Mary Anne that they don't try too hard to police their children's phases, such as Claire's silliness and Vanessa's rhyming, and that they urge them to "follow their bliss" no matter how annoying it is. However, the Pike kids aren't shown to be particularly badly behaved, just as having odd and sometimes annoying little quirks, so it's probably not that they have no rules, but more that with eight children to manage, the parents find it best to pick their battles wisely, and/or that they don't see a need to stifle their kids' self-expression if they're not hurting anyone. Natalie Barrett's kids don't have as many boundaries and do tend to run wild. However it's less because Natalie makes a conscious choice to let them live a free-range life and more because she's too preoccupied with her divorce and acting auditions to notice or help her kids, and offloads it to Dawn without a second thought.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_1c445e86	type	Poor Communication Kills
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: Leads to the main conflict in "Mary Anne Saves the Day". Mary Anne tries to tell her father about her general insecurities regarding her Extreme Doormat tendencies that were highlighted by an incident at a Baby-sitters Club meeting, but he mistakenly thinks she's saying that the other girls were picking on her and calls their parents, causing them to get into trouble. In a heart-to-heart talk between Mary Anne and her father after they deal with Bailey's hospital episode, it comes out that some of Mary Anne's issues with her father were misunderstandings on her part. For example, in contrast to the original novels, Richard never actually told or expected Mary Anne to always wear her hair in braids, but she believed that that was how he wanted her hair to be because it was the way he always used to do it. When she finally asks about it, he explains that the reason he always did her hair in braids was simply because he didn't know how to do it any other way (since Mary Anne is part Black, her hair has to be styled in particular ways, and the braid style was the only one Alma was able to teach him before she died); he never expected or realized that she would take it as a mandate.

The two find it awkward at first since their interests are very different, but going through the camp rebellion together helps them bond.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_20989d05	type	Parents as People
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_20989d05	comment	Parents as People: A big theme of this series. The parents of the baby-sitters and charges are good parents but sometimes they do get overprotective (Richard and Stacey's mother), pass down shame to their children (Stacey's mother), don't understand their children (Claudia's parents and Trevor's father), express their misplaced frustration with them (Elizabeth Thomas), can be scatterbrained (Sharon), or react irrationally to things that concern their children (all the parents who got the idea that Stacey's diabetes would endanger their kids). And sometimes the show will remind the viewers just how vulnerable these parents feel raising young girls (like Richard regarding raising Mary Anne and how he fears he will screw her up because he is a single father raising a young girl). This is also deconstructed with the Barretts, who had an acrimonious divorce, where Natalie is shown to be dismissive of her children's pleas for attention and passes the responsibility automatically to Dawn and neglects to tell Dawn that Buddy is picked up for swim lessons by his father (his father admitting to some fault that their arrangement was so he could avoid talking to his ex-wife). The other parents are lampshaded and invoked by Dawn:

In the episode that adapts "The Truth About Stacey," after Stacey calls Kim Newton about Jamie being left to play in the streets by himself, the Agency retaliate by sending everyone a video of Stacey going into insulin shock, implying that she'd be an unsafe caretaker.

(That last bit is true to the books, as her serious nature helped counter-balance her mom's harmless but funny tendency to go off half-cocked; for instance, when leaving for a date with Richard, she'd forgotten to remove the price tag from her new skirt, was only wearing one earring, and had a rubber band around her wrist).

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_25bc8511	type	Generation Xerox
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_25bc8511	comment	Generation Xerox: Kristy and her mom are both very independent, a little snarky, and very stubborn. Kristy also notes with annoyance that her mom networks like most people breathe â€“ despite the fact that only a few episodes earlier, Kristy was taking every opportunity she had to sell the parents on the club and offer special rates. Many of their conflicts come from the fact that they're too alike. Like her father, Mary Anne is serious and introverted, and when she initially tries to assert herself it comes out a bit awkwardly. The episode "Dawn and The Wicked Stepsister" also shows how both Spiers deal with their anxiety by voicing worst-case scenarios out loud, much to the annoyance of the Schafers. However, Mary Anne also sticks up for people who have less power than her (like her sitting charge), which Mimi tells her mother did all the time. She also looks a lot like her mother, evidenced by the fact that her friends think Alma's baby picture is hers (and even she isn't completely sure until she turns it over to check the name written on the back). Janine is very serious and pragmatic, much like her and Claudia's father.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_2bb06191	comment	Adaptational Sexuality: Dawn's father is straight in the book series, while he's gay in the adaptation and has a male partner after his divorce. Apparently, he and Sharon knew for a while but were too co-dependent on each other to do anything about it at first. Clearly, it's the reason they eventually divorced. Alex, who along with his cousin Toby befriends Mary Anne and Stacey in Sea City, doesn't have his sexuality stated in the books (although he was very likely straight or bi, seeing as how he has a brief summer romance with Mary Anne and mentions having a girlfriend back home). In the series, he is openly gay (or possibly bi) and talks about his crush on a boy at theater camp. Charlotte Johanssen has a mother and father in the books, making them a heterosexual married couple. In the Netflix series, Charlotte has lesbian parents, making the original Dr. Johanssen at least no longer straight. Janine, who had a boyfriend named Jerry in the original books, has a girlfriend named Ashley Wyeth in this version. Dawn shows an exclusive attraction toward boys in the books. She doesn't date anyone in the TV series but mentions that whoever she falls in love with could be anywhere on the gender spectrum, indicating that she's pansexual (though she doesn't use any labels while describing herself).

Laine originally makes her debut in "The Truth About Stacey" when Stacey's family has to stay with her family in New York. In this series, Laine gets a name mention in the adapted episode, but otherwise doesn't appear until Episode 9, where she participates in the same camp as the girls.

Her brother Jeff was the symbol of more-than-a-little of her California homesickness and had originally moved to Stoneybrook with her and Sharon. Prim and proper Jenny Prezziosso and her family don't appear in this version of the series; she's instead replaced by an entirely different character, the sweet and creative Bailey. The club in the book series had associate members, with one of them being Kristy's new neighbor Shannon Kilbourne; prior to joining the club she originally didn't get along with Kristy, but eventually gave the Thomas-Brewers one of her family's purebred Bernese Mountain Dog puppies, which David Michael named after her. Here Shannon the puppy is a rescue and her namesake is the animal-loving adult Mrs. Delaney.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_38d12399	comment	Teens Are Monsters: Many of the high school-aged characters are antagonistic in their roles. Older siblings Sam and Janine at the least serve as annoyances to their younger sisters; at worst, they make issues worse for their sisters (Sam not being very helpful or aware of Kristy and her club, Janine suggesting to her parents they withhold attendance at the school dance to encourage Claudia to get her grades up). The Baby-Sitters Agency steal the business idea from the club, are straight up insulting to the club members, play pranks on them where there are phony job assignments, have a member who is willing to send a young child unsupervised where there is traffic so she can spend time with her boyfriend during working hours, and cyber-bully a 13-year-old girl by using her disability as evidence that she is "unfit" to care for children. Lifeguard Scott's girlfriend shows antagonism towards Stacey and belittles her in front of Scott. Some of the counselors at Camp Moosehead are negligent of the campers, to the point where Karen (a seven-year-old girl) sneaks off the campgrounds and no one but Kristy notices. Even worse is the college-aged art instructor who tells a child to her face that she cannot take part in tie-dye lessons because she doesn't have commissary money, then gets angry when Dawn and Claudia start their free art lessons.

Elizabeth Thomas is played by Alicia Silverstone, who also played the protagonist Cher in Clueless. As another shout-out to Elizabeth Thomas being in Clueless, Claudia also wears a version of Cher's Iconic Outfit with a yellow-and-black check blazer in "Mary Anne Saves The Day" when at the cafeteria. In Season 2, Richard tells the girls to finish their homework before summoning the devil. His actor Marc Evan Jackson played the demon Shawn in The Good Place.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_3d5c5deb	comment	Trevor Sandbourne is a fairly Flat Character in the books and serves mainly as an occasional Satellite Love Interest for Claudia. In the TV series, he's more developed â€“ he's also an artist and struggles to live up to his dad's expectations, much like Claudia. Their relationship is also given more time to build and is still just a mutual crush at the end of the first season.

Apparently the parents knew for a while but were initially too co-dependent on each other to act on it. It appears they are on decent terms despite the awkward circumstances and Sharon at least doesn't seem to have any animosity towards her ex.

Mary Anne is her regular sitter because none of the other sitters like her very much. In the Netflix series revamp, Jenny has been changed to a young transgender girl named Bailey, and Mary Anne is her regular sitter because Bailey's mom trusts Mary Anne — whose father is a coworker — more than she would any other sitter.

Logan Bruno debuts in the tenth book where he moves to Stoneybrook and becomes an associate member of the Baby-Sitters Club.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_7286e96d	comment	Idiot Ball: Most of the parent clients are reasonable, but almost all of them grab hold of the idiot ball in "The Truth About Stacey." First, they dump the Baby-sitters Club, even though they have a history with the club and know that the girls are reliable and good with kids despite their young age, in favor of older teenagers who obviously aren't experienced with childcare or remotely professional—all on the simple assumption that older babysitters are automatically better. This results in Jamie Newton being put in very real danger by a negligent baby sitter. Then (while they're understandably shocked by the video of Stacey's seizure) after Stacey reveals that she is diabetic the parents, all of whom know Stacey and the girls and have seen her properly care for kids, reveal that they know very little about diabetes. They're concerned about Stacey having another seizure (despite her being clear that this was before her diagnosis and her insulin pump and treatment) and about kids coming into contact with any "medical equipment" she might have. Keep in mind, the parents already know that the Agency let a four-year-old play by himself in the street and just learned that the Agency intentionally sent around a video of a preteen girl having a seizure to discredit her. It's only once Dr. Johanssen points out how well Stacey manages her condition that they lay off; and once Kristy points out a second time that the Agency cyberbullied a twelve-year-old, the other parents suddenly remember how much their kids love the club and how professional they are for their young age. The girls' parents are unusually unreasonable in "Mary Anne Saves the Day". First, Richard jumps to the conclusion that Kristy, Claudia, and Stacey were bullying Mary Anne and calls their parents, all of whom just accept his interpretation of events and ground their daughters, apparently without getting their side of it or probing too deeply into what this "bullying" entailed (it was just an argument). When some of the girls are wearing placards to advertise the club (when the agency is giving them stiff competition), they all stay together, meaning that 3 people are all covering the same street corner. They should have been more split up; even just being a block or two from each other would have covered a lot more ground, while still staying where they could see each other in case one of them needed help.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_730d3664	type	Adaptational Angst Upgrade
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_730d3664	comment	Adaptational Angst Upgrade: In the books, while it has impacted the course of her life, Kristy doesn't seem to have any real strong feelings about her father walking out on them (except when it's necessary for a plot point, which just makes the whole thing inconsistent). This adaptation focuses on Kristy's angst about it to the point where she has a tantrum after being reminded of how far her friends and babysitting charges' fathers (even the divorced ones) are willing to go to be involved with their children. In the books, Stacey had drifted apart from her friends due to the amount of medical care she needed, and the final incident that caused everyone to abandon her was wetting the bed at a slumber party. In this adaptation, her "friends" abandoned her gradually, when she stopped being able to go to parties and hang out as often â€“ and it culminated in those people passing around a video of her having a grand mal seizure, something that never happened in the books. The early books in the series were set in the late 80s/early 90s, which would have meant Mimi was born shortly after the turn of the century and an adult by the time World War II occurred. In the adaptation, set in 2020, Mimi was born in America prior to World War IInote She's stated to be 85 when she passes in "Claudia and the Sad Goodbye", so instead she was subjected to the horrors of an internment camp as a small child of only five years old. It's one of her most painful memories and something she understandably does not like to talk about, but when she has her stroke, she begins remembering it vividly—and speaking in Japanese when she has the flashbacks. In both the books and the adaptation, Richard is fairly strict with Mary Anne in terms of the way she dresses and keeps her room because of his stress â€“ and cluelessness â€“ of raising her without her mother. But the series also further explores his attachment to certain things in her bedroom—in particular, the Humpty Dumpty wall hanging in her room. Mary Anne despises it in the book and (initially) Netflix series, but learns it was hung there by her mother before Mary Anne was born â€“ and by putting it in storage, Richard feels as though he's lost another connection to his former wife. While the book version of "Mary Anne Saves the Day" centered around a fight the club members were having with each other, the episode focuses much more on Mary Anne generally struggling with feeling like she's not good enough for the club and that something is wrong with her, with the fight (which has a different context from the original) being just one element of that. In the books, when the Spiers move in with the Schafers (on a more permanent basis after Richard and Sharon marry), Dawn's annoyance comes at how opposite they are because both Richard and Mary-Anne are too Type A while Dawn and her mother like things messy. Not only are Dawn and Mary-Anne given a role reversal here â€“ Dawn is a neat freak who constantly cleans up after her mother while Mary-Anne is more free-spirited â€“ but she also has a lot more deep resentment over Mary-Anne's intrusion into her room and the relationship with Sharon. Dawn has taken care of Sharon for the last year on their own, while Mary-Anne has suddenly come in and fit right in with Sharon's laid-back ways. When Dawn accuses Mary-Anne of taking over her life, her voice breaks when she yells, "my house, my room, my mom!"

It gets so bad that she alienates her friends over it. The rest of the club are unusually impatient with Mary Anne's passivity and shyness in "Mary Anne Saves the Day" despite being well aware of her personality at this point, and aren't very sympathetic about Mrs. Delvechio only wanting Mary Anne to babysit for her (even if her daughter wasn't trans, it's reasonable for a parent to want a sitter they vetted). The girls, Stacey in particular, apologize for not being understanding. Richard keeps his temper even when he's being a strict parent or shows annoyance to other people. The one exception is when he lashes out at Mary Anne and Sharon for redecorating her room, temporarily damaging his relationships with both parties. It really comes from grief that he's unable to express properly, but it comes out as very cruel.

On one hand, she is Book Dumb and prone to failing tests and not recognizing big words. On the other hand, she is a talented artist, very knowledgeable about feminist role models like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, given to quoting Buddhist sayings, and very clever about saving Kristy from the wrath of their strict teacher. The black-haired Janine Kishi, through and through, who is interested in computer science and medical science and fluent in Japanese and is very aware of current events and the history of Internment camps in the United States. Dawn Schafer has brown hair in this adaptation, and she is socially and politically conscious, an intelligent young woman, and the Only Sane Man to her scatterbrained mother. (That last bit is true to the books, as her serious nature helped counter-balance her mom's harmless but funny tendency to go off half-cocked; for instance, when leaving for a date with Richard, she'd forgotten to remove the price tag from her new skirt, was only wearing one earring, and had a rubber band around her wrist). Mary Anne has dark brown hair and is a knowledgeable bookworm with advanced emotional maturity.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_8ab2ef8	comment	Babysitter Friendship: Many of the babysitters form a bond with their charges. Despite Kristy's initial refusal to meet and bond with the Brewer children, she and Karen hit it off well and are already on good terms prior to becoming stepsisters. Kristy's family is close enough to Jamie Newton's family that his parents entrust him in the care of the Thomases when their daughter is born. Claudia is shown to have a close relationship with Jamie Newton during a voiceover while she talks about the things she is good at and it shows her and Jamie laughing and playing. Stacey is shown to be very close with Byron Pike (who has a Precocious Crush on her until she turns him down gently) and with the family of Charlotte Johannsen. Enforced with Mary Anne and Bailey, as Mary Anne is the only member of the club that the Delvecchios entrust with their trans daughter. By the end of Dawn's episode, Buddy Barrett is shown to be so close to her that he excitedly wanted to tell her of his progress at swimming lessons. This is deconstructed as Buddy's mother is shown to overstep her boundaries with Dawn and take advantage of her kindness. The babysitters start out as caretakers for the Pike kids and get along well with the eldest child Mallory, who is more than happy to give a helping hand with her siblings. This proves to be useful later when they trust her to become a new club member. Mallory and Jessi are shown to be very concerned for the younger Karen's safety and tell her that she can be their friend. Their help in the search and their friendly attitude towards children is what convinces the club to recruit them.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_9ecb2ba8	type	Reimagining the Artifact
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_9ecb2ba8	comment	Reimagining the Artifact: Since the books were first written in the late '80s, multiple details have been changed in the adaptation to avoid looking outdated while still being faithful. In the book series, Stacey initially keeps her diabetes a secret and has to give herself injections at home, so keeping it secret mainly meant having to find excuses for her energy levels and not wanting to eat sweets. This was before personal insulin monitors and pumps were commonplace. Now taking place in the early 2020s, Stacey wears an insulin pump, so part of her struggle is having to literally hide her illness, which she does by layering clothing strategically. Eventually, she learns to embrace it and wears her pump openly, even bedazzling it. The way the girls advertise and run the club in the book series is rather old-fashioned compared to modern times. While the adaptation updates some of it with modern technology (such as replacing the club logbook with Google Docs and the use of a digitalized calendar), other essential elements are kept intact and justified with reasons different from the books: Claudia having her own phone line was a big deal in the books since mobile phones were not yet a thing, and was the key to the club's success. In the adaptation, although everyone has the internet and their own phones, the Kishi family still have a complimentary landline as part of Janine's super high-speed internet package, so the club decide to make use of it so that their personal numbers aren't inconvenienced (for example, not having to answer unknown callers) and to have a specific phone line designated for club business. Word-of-mouth and flyers were the club's only means of advertising in the books. In the updated setting, the club initially explores the idea of social media advertising and digital marketing, but scrap it since they don't all use social media (Kristy doesn't like it and Mary Anne/her father doesn't think she's old enough); in the end, the girls decide they would rather use word-of-mouth to separate themselves from the apps and social networks for childcare that gave Kristy's mom issues with sitters in the first place. In the books, Mary Anne wore a mega sun protection outfit any time she went to the beach or a pool because she was so light-skinned that she was at particularly high risk of sunburn. Since Mary Anne is half Black here, this wouldn't be the case for hernote not that Black people are at no risk from the sun, but she certainly wouldn't be exceptionally vulnerable like her book counterpart is, so the series has her wearing this because her father, a redhead, is the one who is sensitive to sun and he hasn't quite caught on that the same doesn't apply to Mary Anne.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_a4c5065	comment	Pottery Barn Poor: Downplayed. Kristy and Sam make references to their family being in dire financial straits where Elizabeth had to fight with the water and power company the year before and the possibility of college debt and their mother working very hard at her job. What becomes questionable is that Elizabeth is a real estate agent, which typically makes decent money (although her being the sole provider for her four children and the fluctuating economy can affect that). They also live in a neighborhood that is middle to upper-middle class with professionals (the Kishis are an investment partner and a librarian, Mary Anne's father is a lawyer, Charlotte's mothers are a doctor and schoolteacher); although it's smaller, the Thomases' home looks to be of similar quality to Kishi and Spier home.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_a65288e2	comment	Ascended Extra: Morbidda Destiny doesn't appear much in the books and is usually only mentioned when Karen's obsession with her being a witch comes up. In this show, "Morbidda Destiny" (or Aunt Esme, as she's more often called) is related to Dawn and plays a bigger role in the story, even officiating the Thomas-Brewer wedding. While they often aren't the most active characters in the books, parents such as Elizabeth Thomas, Richard Spier, and Sharon Porter get plenty of play in the Netflix series; their personalities are more developed, and the relationships they have with their children are explored with more depth. Trevor Sandbourne is a fairly Flat Character in the books and serves mainly as an occasional Satellite Love Interest for Claudia. In the TV series, he's more developed â€“ he's also an artist and struggles to live up to his dad's expectations, much like Claudia. Their relationship is also given more time to build and is still just a mutual crush at the end of the first season.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_a91078ea	type	Adaptational Jerkass
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_a91078ea	comment	Adaptational Jerkass: Janine is overall quite a bit more overbearing and less supportive towards Claudia than in the book series, probably to help justify Claudia's resentment of her (which often seemed excessive or disproportionate in the original). In the books, despite their differences, Janine is frequently Claudia's biggest supporter and generally a Cool Big Sis, and Claudia's resentment seems to stem not from anything Janine actually did, but from the mere fact that Janine is the standard by which Claudia is judged and found lacking (which ends up making Claudia look like a jerk at times); the only actual trait of hers that consistently annoys Claudia is her Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness, which is ultimately a pretty minor thing. Here, Janine actually earns Claudia's distaste at times, such as by advising their parents to use Claudia's being able to attend the school dance as leverage to "motivate" Claudia to improve her grades. Mr. Redmont in the book is a Reasonable Authority Figure who subtly tells Kristy to learn to be more polite and discreet. In this adaptation, he holds girls to higher standards of behavior than the boys and can be condescending to his students, along with shades of talking about mostly white male historical figures as admirable. Natalie Barrett is more unsympathetic than she is in the original book. While sheâ€™s still going through a bad divorce, sheâ€™s also flaky and starts taking advantage of Dawn, even using her to record her auditions and making her a stand-in for a therapist about her issues. Not to mention that her inability to give Dawn proper information causes Dawn and Kristy to call the police when they think Buddyâ€™s gone missing (in the corresponding scene in the books, while Mrs. Barrett contributed to the problem, her ex is primarily to blame) and Dawnâ€™s mother has to rightfully call her out on her unhealthy behavior.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_b8e3f20a	comment	Demoted to Extra: The kids that the club take care of usually have some sort of focus in the books. In this adaptation, due to the limited time for each episode, many of them serve little purpose other than to be baby-sat and are not as developed as their book counterparts. In the book series, Kristy and David Michael have a very special relationship with their dog, Louie, and the dog is especially protective of David Michael. In this adaptation, however, he's only seen in one scene in the first episode when Kristy takes him for a run â€“ despite numerous scenes set in the Thomas house, we don't see Louie at all for the rest of the first season, and he returns in the first episode of the second season only to pass away. While possibly not intentional due to the abrupt cancellation, Mallory Pike is the only one of the main club members who didn't get an episode of her own.

Zig-zagged with Laine Cummings. On one hand, she had been involved in the humiliation over Stacey's grand mal seizure and her diabetes, revealing a ruthless streak. On the other hand, by the Camp Moosehead episodes she seemed to have mellowed down and Took a Level in Kindness when she meets the more naive, shy, and awkward Mary Anne and befriends her quickly.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_c02f148d	comment	Both Sides Have a Point: Elizabeth is correct that Kristy shouldn't fall into a trap of not worrying about money just because she has a rich stepfather now. However, Kristy is also correct that Watson bought her brother a BMW and Elizabeth didn't react nearly as strongly to that as she did the dress (and while the dress was expensive at $800, there's no way Watson got a brand-new BMW, even with a good deal from his buddy and Charlie contributing his car savings, without dropping tens of thousands of dollars at least). Notably, Kristy also didn't refuse to wear the yellow dress, she just mildly complained about disliking it and Watson immediately offered to buy her a different one, and when the saleswoman said she had something in mind that would look good on Kristy, he immediately told her to grab it and wasn't worried about the price, even saying it wasn't a big deal — was Kristy supposed to have refused his offer just on principle (and if this is what Elizabeth is suggesting, then why should it not also apply to Charlie)? Dawn and Claudia have a point that the camp is filled with things that create inequality based on money â€“ the camp already costs a lot for some families, so adding in so many activities with extra fees creates an unequal system (especially given the way they handle the situation, which basically ends up rubbing it in the face of the kids who simply can't afford it). But Meany is also correct that the camp can't afford to make everything free â€“ camps operate on razor-thin margins and they need to make up for finances. In the end, they reach a compromise by letting the girls volunteer in a more official capacity.

Elizabeth snarks at Kristy's dislike towards her engagement with Watson that she will change her name to "Ofwatson". When the girls list people they know who have diabetes, Mary Anne brings up Halle Berry. Before giving Mary Anne's room a makeover, Claudia and Stacey ask Richard if he knows Queer Eye. Judging by the way he quickly backtracks his answer, he does watch the show (or is at least somewhat familiar with it) but refuses to admit it. Mary Anne and Dawn call their plan to get their parents back together "Project Parent Trap". Upset by how her yellow dress makes her look like a banana, Kristy retorts that the only one who'd think she looks good is Curious George, and only right before he tries to eat her. When Claudia gets remanded back to her cabin for running a free art class, Dawn and the other campers do the Mockingjay salute at her while the film's four-note tune plays. "Hello, Camp Moosehead!" Parts 1 and 2 have a ton of shoutouts to Les MisÃ©rables, including a scene where the campers build a barricade and stand atop it waving flags. Plus the musical Mary Anne is producing is full of songs that sound similar to the ones from the musical, and Logan directly quotes the opening text from the film adaptation during the performance.

However, they also have some traits that fall under another label. Kristy is an outgoing and mouthy tomboy member, with a love for sports and a preference for casual attire. She also has leadership skills and great ideas, which are typical traits of a smart member. Mary Anne is the ingenue member. She is sweet and a timid girl, although she learns to become more confident in herself. As someone who's often concerned about everyone's wellbeing, she can also come off as motherly. Claudia is the fashionable boy-crazy member. She's also a passionate artist and is known for her creativity, which shows how much attention she puts into visuals. Claudia being quite different from Kristy and Mary Anne is slightly Played for Drama at first, as Kristy assumes Claudia's interest in clothes and boys is what leads her to drift apart from the other two (although Claudia actually blames Kristy's bossy personality). Stacey is considered the most sophisticated member, the object of admiration because she's from New York, and a math whiz, making her the smart and mature member. She also shares Claudia's interest in fashion and boys.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_d0bf8a6d	comment	No Periods, Period: Averted as Kristy's comes during the wedding, causing her to rush off into the bathroom. All her friends had theirs already, it turns out, with Mary Anne handing over a pad and telling her how to use it. The aversion is noteworthy in large part because the book series the show is based on is a straight example (see entry under Literature). Also averted in an earlier episode when Kristy asks Claudia what her abstract sculpture is about and Claudia casually replies "Menstruation".

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_d2b59903	comment	Cool Old Lady: Despite her old age, Mimi is carefree and easily bonds with the girls. In particular, she understands her granddaughter Claudia best in the Kishi household and is more than happy to talk about boys or art with her. When she has her stroke, both Elizabeth and Richard show up with food to help Claudia's family out and talk about Mimi being friendly with their families. Aunt Esme, aka Morbidda Destiny, is Dawn's great-aunt who is a spiritual practitioner leading a women's group, an outspoken feminist who validates children (she amusingly refers to Mary Anne's emotional outburst as very Scorpio-like and uses Karen's freak out at the wedding to educate people about the history of witches), and she's apparently well aware of Sharon and Richard's relationship in high school (when you think of how the relationship was regarded by Sharon's parents in the books).

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_d7c3ba61	comment	Race Lift: A good chunk of the cast in the books are white or assumed to be white if not stated otherwise, but the adaptation makes it more diverse: Mary Anne is white in the book series and in fact so pale she can't tan; in this adaptation, Mary Anne is half-black since her mother was African-American. While Dawn is a long-blonde-haired white girl in the book series, she and her family are Latino in the adaptation. Charlotte (a brown haired white girl in the book series) is now East Asian, while one of her mothers, Dr. Johanssen, is South Asian. (This seems to be a nod to Raina Telgemeier's graphic novel adaptations, where Charlotte and Dr. Johanssen are Asian.) Trevor Sandbourne is depicted as white in the book art; in the adaptation he's played by Egyptian-American Bodhi Sabongui. The Marshall family are also depicted as white in book art; while we don't see the two girls, their father is played by an actor of Sri Lankan descent. Ashley Wyeth (who is also given an Age Lift) is a white girl in the books, but is Black in the TV series.

In Episode 5, Mary Anne encourages Dawn to join the club and reassures her that she will be welcomed by everyone. Although Kristy coldly resisting the idea and reluctantly giving her a trial run shows otherwise, Dawn proves herself as a baby-sitter and becomes closer to Kristy, and she's made an official member at the end of the episode. At the end of Episode 10, Mallory and Jessi are invited to join the club as junior officers because Kristy was impressed by their help when looking for Karen.

They support her talent and hobbies to some degree, evident by Claudia getting to take college-level life drawing courses, but are firm about her school grades and take up Janine's suggestion to ground her from the school dance if she fails her next test. When Claudia reveals she lied about passing her test and confesses about her insecurities to them, they genuinely hear her out and offer words of encouragement, but nevertheless uphold their promise to ground her (although that's probably at least partially for lying, rather than solely about the original issue of grades).

The closest the series gets to having any serious threats are the Baby-Sitters Agency (who prank the club and cyber-bully Stacey) and the Camp Moose staff (who aren't sympathetic to the girls' concerns and punish them for just trying to create inclusive experiences), but they are limited to one/two-episode arcs, and many of the episodes have no real antagonist.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_e13156e1	comment	Mama Bear: A few mothers are very defensive of their children and will go the extra mile to criticize someone hurting them or ensure that their children are treated with respect. Dawn's mother Sharon is scatterbrained, but she takes umbrage when Ms. Barrett's criminal lack of organization and messy divorce interfere with Dawn's boundaries and her ability to be a child (even making her stay out later than her set hours), picking up Dawn's phone when she calls after she neglected to tell Dawn about her ex-husband taking their son to his swimming lessons (making Dawn terrified that she lost the boy), telling her off that she needs to get her life in order and leave Dawn out of her mess. According to Mimi, Mary Anne's deceased mother Alma Spier once chased off a bunch of high schoolers giving the two ladies a hard time, and while she was pregnant no less. Implied with Ms. Delvecchio, Bailey's mother. She is very insistent that no one but Mary Anne, the daughter of her work colleague, babysits her transgender daughter.

(To be fair, he almost certainly would have said no, but she didn't even try.) To her credit, unlike the books where her personality remains static, she's beginning to combat this throughout the series. It's implied she inherited this trait from her father Richard, who was once called "Turtle" by Sharon when they were younger.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_f8600b	type	Cool Big Sis
The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_f8600b	comment	Janine is overall quite a bit more overbearing and less supportive towards Claudia than in the book series, probably to help justify Claudia's resentment of her (which often seemed excessive or disproportionate in the original). In the books, despite their differences, Janine is frequently Claudia's biggest supporter and generally a Cool Big Sis, and Claudia's resentment seems to stem not from anything Janine actually did, but from the mere fact that Janine is the standard by which Claudia is judged and found lacking (which ends up making Claudia look like a jerk at times); the only actual trait of hers that consistently annoys Claudia is her Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness, which is ultimately a pretty minor thing. Here, Janine actually earns Claudia's distaste at times, such as by advising their parents to use Claudia's being able to attend the school dance as leverage to "motivate" Claudia to improve her grades.

The Baby-Sitters Club (2020) / int_ff17ccf1	comment	Innocently Insensitive: There's no malicious intent when the other girls nag Mary Anne to be more assertive in Episode 4, but the way they do it still comes off as rather inconsiderate since they should know how sensitive she is at this point. Sure enough, Mary Anne is driven to tears and runs off. It goes From Bad to Worse when her father misunderstands the situation to be bullying-related and tells the other girls' parents his interpretation of events, leading to them getting grounded and understandably angry at Mary Anne. The nurse and doctor who treat Bailey Delvecchio refer to her as a boy based on her chart and medical file. This clearly upsets Bailey, so Mary Anne takes the two aside to gently but firmly call them out on what they're doing and makes them understand Bailey is a girl and needs to be acknowledged as such regardless of her chart. The doctor and nurse are quietly chastised and apologize for their unintentional rudeness.
