main things about it

I think the show is pretty serious. But at the same time it's not enough. And then again it's too t.v. magical, but then if you think about it, it isn't. But I very much doubt that highschool students would experience such heavy stuff. I mean, I'm in high school and my life is farthest from what they show. Then again, it's t.v. and you can't argue with that fact. Besides, when are they going to graduate? Some characters there are totally normal, but some are so far off being teen that you would think they're in their late twenties. Example: Sheri's pregnancy; it was too stereotype, the real father staying, they get married, come on it's the 90's for crying out loud! I know as a fact it happens, but most fathers leave, and being different races makes a difference too, I am not racist at all, at ALL! But my cousin's father left my aunt mostly because of race, so it does matter! But, when Tom, threw rocks at Tia's window doing that Romeo and Juliet thingy, that was totally realistic, believe me, I should know. But when Tom beat that guy up, you know, what's-his-name, um, the guy who goes to therapy? Well anyway, when he beat him up because he was with his ex-girlfriend, that was a little out of hand, but it's more likely than RJ falling for an older woman and staying with her. But out of all, I really like the show, though I'm a major critic. If I were to rate the actors here it is (in character names): Kevin: *** Sheri: ** Tia: *** Derek: *** Tom: **** Carol: **** RJ: *** Penny: **** and the rest of the cast: ***
