They can't go five minutes an episode without taking a huge dump on his character. I hope he's treated better in Bunk'd.

Ravi, Jessie and Bertram all get a lot of jabs and abuse thrown at them on the show. Emma seems to get off the lightest.
shareActually, Emma is the epitome of the dumb blonde, spoiled princess stereotype. That's pretty damning in this day and age of female empowerment...
shareEmma has dumb blonde moments, and is a tad snobbish, but I think it's pretty extreme to call her the epitome of the dumb blonde spoiled princess stereotype. She has a job, working at a food stand, so you know the money she makes is peanuts, and she has never complained about it.
But getting back to topic, it could simply be that the writers are trying to do kafka comedy, and just aren't very good at it, except in the case of Bertram, whose pain and suffering has always been hilarious. I do love this show, but it's nowhere near as well written as, say, Victorious, where if you shift the focus just a little bit, it because extremely dark very quickly.

I'm seriously wondering if she's self-loathing or something.
As far as I can tell Ravi is in many ways the most admirable of all the characters in Jessie.
Ravi found an egg and hatched it when he was younger than 10, and raised the tiny lizard to a 7 foot long one. Ravi has been a sort of a parent since before he was 10, and as a result he often is as mature as Jesssie and Bertram and his parents, and sometimes more so.
Ravi may be bad at doing things that most kids want to be good at, but he is very good at doing what kids need to be good at. Ravi is far better at learning than any of the other Ross kids, and almost as nice as Emma. What more could you want in a child?
In "The Blind Date, the Cheapskate, and and Primate" November 1, 2013, 12-year-old Ravi recaptures an escaped gorilla, and his boss says that Ravi saved hundreds of lives. How many other times did anyone claim that a Disney kid character saved hundreds of lives?
