'''''That's So Raven''''' is an American television [[Fantasy television|fantasy]] [[teen sitcom]] that was created by [[Michael Poryes]] and Susan Sherman, and aired on [[Disney Channel]] for four seasons between January 2003 and November 2007. The series centers on Raven Baxter ([[Raven-Symoné]]<!---Raven-Symoné is referred to by her mononym for consistency throughout this article, even though she was credited in the series solely as Raven. Please not that Symoné is not her surname.-->), a teenager with hidden psychic abilities. Episodes show Raven experiencing [[vision (spirituality)|visions]] of future events; she must also deal with the social and personal issues of her youth. Raven often misinterprets the events she foresees, and intervenes to prevent a vision from coming true or to protect her friends and family. She uses her skills in fashion design to create elaborate disguises she wears during these schemes. Raven's secret is shared with her best friends Eddie Thomas ([[Orlando Brown (actor)|Orlando Brown]]) and Chelsea Daniels ([[Anneliese van der Pol]]), along with her brother Cory ([[Kyle Massey]]) and parents Tanya ([[T'Keyah Crystal Keymáh]]) and Victor ([[Rondell Sheridan]]). The series explores supernatural elements, family, friendship, and adolescence.

[[The Walt Disney Company]] created the series as its television network's first [[Multiple-camera setup|multi-camera]] sitcom  after the success of its earlier [[Single-camera setup|single-camera]] comedy series such as ''[[Even Stevens]]'' and ''[[Lizzie McGuire]]'', the former of which executive producers [[David Brookwell]] and [[Sean McNamara (filmmaker)|Sean McNamara]] concurrently worked on. Their joint company [[Brookwell McNamara Entertainment]] produced ''That's So Raven'', which premiered on January 17, 2003. The series concluded on November 10, 2007, after becoming the first program on the network to reach [[100 episodes]], and ended because the actors were aging beyond the show's target teenage demographic. All four seasons of the show have been distributed through digital download and on the [[Streaming service provider|streaming service]] [[Disney+]].

''That's So Raven'' enjoyed high viewership on broadcast television in the United States, and gave rise to the development of merchandise, [[soundtrack album]]s, and [[video game]] adaptations. Television critics praised Raven-Symoné for her physical comedy in what is considered her breakthrough role. The series received two [[Primetime Emmy Award]] nominations for [[Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Program|Outstanding Children's Program]] in 2005 and 2007. A spin-off entitled ''[[Cory in the House]]'', which stars Massey and Sheridan, aired on Disney Channel for two seasons from 2007 to 2008. Raven-Symoné, van der Pol, Sheridan and Keymáh reprised their roles for the spin-off ''[[Raven's Home]]'', which aired for six seasons from 2017 to 2023.
