Beach bimbos

Dear god where do i start? Malibu, well a cardboard cut out of a beach and some fake, terrible actors in front of it.

The worst culprits of terrible acting was Stads and Sam, they had one facial expression between them,sounding like they were reading off an autocue, were the auditions in bikinis? Traycee, not sure whether she's a bad actress (Its hard to tell) but come on, there was only two reasons why they hired her! not exactly a role model for teen girls.

And talking of two boobs, Scott and Jason, absolutely awful. Scott, gym obsessed idiot, with yet again an opposite twin brother. i am a twin, we are not opposites, we don't pull horrible stunts on one an other like childish twits, i mean how old are they? eighteen? Adults presumably.

The thing that gets me is that these 'teen' shows talk about some issues but never talk about sex or drugs or even death, the worst they get is divorced parents and their long term partner dumps them. Why on Peter Engel shows do they always land jobs on Radio shows and in bands and have their own TV shows and clothing lines? i wish life was that easy.

Sometimes i watch this to laugh at the absurdity of it, a bunch of young adults who are lifeguards and waiters, don't work hard, wear bikinis all day and then moan about their 'hard' lives.

This is one of the worst of The Whole peter Engel lot, City guys is way better and a least a little a bit gritty.
