It's a good show

Yeah, the acting is not as good, but the scenarios are believable. Plus, in this sex-infested world, it's nice to see teenagers acting their age. It's a clean show and good for young people to watch. Plus, parents would approve. Okay, so since I have to make this ten lines long, i'll try not to pad but just add some details. The show is called Just Deal and the main characters of the show are Dylan, Ashley and Jermaine. Dylan comes from a very Catholic family and some of the issues he deals with comes from his religion. Ashley is Jewish and her parents are divorced. Ashley and Dylan are going out and sometimes their difference in religion get them into problems. Jermaine is biracial (half African-American and half Caucasian). He has issues of identity at times, but most of the time, he is pretty level headed. Jermaine is Dylan's best friend and he, Dylan and Ashley form a pretty tight click.

There are great episodes in the show and I think the show was cancelled pretty early. i think there were only two seasons, but I might be wrong. Anyhoo, the show ends not so happily ever after, which is very realistic =) sad though.
