Most Disney Channel shows these days portray a young teen who is arguably almost perfect - everything works out for her, she's optimistic and peppy all the time, and pretty much any likable character within a three-mile radius either loves her or at least gives some begrudging respect.
But Ally offers a character who is flawed - and it's completely okay.
She's awkward...

...Tends to be terrified of crowds...

...And admittedly, for all of her musical talents, is a very "creative" dancer.

But despite (and because of) all of this, her friends still love her, and she loves herself. At one point, she even writes a song and conquers her stage-fright, pursuing her ultimate dream of becoming a performer and knowing that nothing can stop her.
And sure, she's still got some flaws (the dancing and the awkwardness is still there), but it's okay to be imperfect and okay to love your flaws and your talents all at once. I just hope Disney keeps up this awesome message in its future shows - well done, Disney Channel!!
