Storyline

When former mean girl Amanda Vaughn moves back to Dallas 18 years after high school, former unpopular teen-turned-diva-of-Dallas Carlene Cockburn gets a major dose of PTSD. To top it off, Amanda's living across the street from the Cockburns with her feisty mother Gigi Stopper! Amanda has changed for the morally better but Carlene and her other victims - the GCBs - have their doubts. The GCBs now rule the school that is Dallas society and are about to settle the score with Amanda Vaughn.

User Reviews

Great Show!

Wonderful show, I absolutely love it. I found myself really getting into the different story-lines and hilarious characters. This TV Show is Humorous, charming and witty. What a great cast along with the fresh and clever episodes. I did not feel disrespected or affronted by watching this show, firstly because it's a sitcom. This show was young and it was already growing. The "superficial" aspect of characters was part of the introduction as we get to know them better. So many shows ending, I was looking to find a new show to fill in the entertainment void and this was it. I really don't see why it would get cancelled. A clever sitcom like this one should not be cancel due to a over-dramatic few, particularly while other "reality show" could be considered more offensive. Bring it BACK!
