That’s So Raven is a classic Disney Channel sitcom that captivated audiences with its unique blend of comedy and supernatural elements. The show follows the misadventures of Raven Baxter, a teenage girl with psychic abilities that often lead her into hilarious situations. Raven’s psychic powers allow her to catch glimpses of the future, setting the stage for a series of comedic misunderstandings and adventures.
Starring Raven-Symoné as the titular character, Raven Baxter, the show became a cultural phenomenon, resonating with audiences around the world. Raven’s quirky personality, fashion sense, and quick wit made her a beloved figure in pop culture, and her adventures navigating high school, friendships, and family life struck a chord with viewers.
The show is undeniably one of Disney Channel’s most successful shows. It instantly became a star vehicle for Raven-Symoné, who went on to be the star of other Disney projects like The Cheeta Girls.
While many Americans would consider Raven to be a household name, one person does not: Raven’s wife, Miranda Maday. When news broke that Miranda didn’t watch That’s So Raven, many fans were extremely offended and took to social media to share their feelings.

Social Media Hate Finds New Victim
As That’s So Raven evolved, it even spawned a successful spinoff series titled Raven’s Home, which continues to follow Raven Baxter’s life, now as a divorced mother of twins, alongside her best friend Chelsea. This extension of the original series allowed fans to continue enjoying the characters they grew to love while introducing new storylines and developments.
The success of the show’s reboot also put the spotlight back on Raven-Symoné and her new wife, Miranda Maday.
While the couple has typically gotten good press from fans, a recent interview with the pair received incredibly bad backlash from fans online. In the interview, Miranda mentions not being very familiar with Raven’s work before they came together as a couple. Many fans found the comments disrespectful and out of touch.
