I seems like fate has arrived when Cher is swept off her feet by Sonny in the local ice cream parlour. Unfortunately, he is 20 years old and in college, and Cher hasn't told him that she is just 16.
Murray and Sean play a round of golf with Josh and become hooked on the sport. Dee becomes upset when she realises that Murray's obsession means that she is being ignored. Cher comes up with a plan.
Cher and Dee are inspired to make stylish muff purses for their hands. Before long everybody at school wants one so Cher starts up a business making them. However, after selling them at a show the ...
A television series based on the popular movie of the same name. Many of the actors from the movie appear in the television series, including Dionne, Mr. Hall, Miss Giest, Amber, and Murray.
Except for the occasional bad word and mentions of sex this show was nothing more than innocent teen fodder in the tradition of "Saved by the Bell". Though stylish it fails to match the cleverness, hipness and satire of the original 1995 hit film. The pacing of the show seems off as well and Cher's commentary, a highlight in the film, here it seems like it's coming from a completely different show. The show hardly even resembles the film, if it wasn't trying to be like the movie then they should have changed the name but since they stuck with the title "Clueless" then they should have tried to keep the spirit of the film. On it's own it's pretty lighthearted fun so if you haven't seen the film then you might enjoy it but if you're a fan of the film then this series might depress you especially considering that so many of the same people who worked on the film also worked on the show including writer/director Amy Heckerling and producers Twink Caplan, Julie Brown and Scott Rudin.
