[edit] Plot

Jerry is a new kid who does not fit with any of his schoolmates. This series shows his best attempts to try to be liked by the 'three friends' who do not want him to be part of their group but still let him hang out with them as long as he helps them with their problems.

[edit] Critics

Although Nickelodeon adopted The Three Friends and Jerry into their lineup, many people though it was not appropriate for children to watch. The Three Friends and Jerry show had sexual themes as in one episode Jerry peeps on Linda while she's putting on panties at the girls' locker room, also in the opening scene The Three Friends and Jerry are trying to look at the girls' panties with a mirror while the girls are jumping rope. In another episode the kids are caught by their teacher going to pornography pages on the school computers. The show also showed the kids doing illegal things like money laundering and breaking in houses. Due to these causes the show only lasted about one year.
