OT: Upcoming 2016 DCOM "For Wheelz" Info


"For Wheelz" centers on teenager Mark, who has tried to get his driver's license five times and five times he's come up empty. But when the coolest most popular girl in his class asks him to drive her to an exclusive pool party, he needs a sure thing - which is exactly what he finds in driving instructor Glenn Bufferton, a man who passes testees like he passes gas, frequently. Unfortunately, just as he's about to achieve his dream, Mark's test turns into a nightmare when the instructor's life falls apart. Out of options and needing a win, Mark helps reunite this buffoon with his wife in exchange for passing the exam, sending him and his vertically-challenged best friend Russell on a cross-town adventure involving angry tow truck driver, eight-year-old karate champs, and a maniac squirrel. This odyssey will test the limits of their endurance, the limmits of their car, and the limits of their friendship - and pose the question: How far will Mark go to join the ranks of the cool crowd? He's faced the pressure five times before, but this time it's For Wheelz.

Thoughts:
Pretty nice to see a Disney Channel project with a male lead. You would expect the best friend who's helping Mark to be a female, but it's also a male. Everything about the plot screams Disney XD - except the part with the "most popular girl" and the "exclusive pool party."

Almost seems like a kid-friendly loose remake of License to Drive.
