    Love this show!!!

    I absolutely love this show. It is funny and nostalgic. The jokes are period specific and on point. It's a refreshingly comedic take on the ups and downs of high school. The actors do a great job relating what it was like to be an awkward teen. It's great show for kids and parents alike. Can't wait for season 2!!!

    Waiting for 2nd Season

    I watched the first season and it wasn't bad. I saw potential in the storyline, and I was excited to see it developed in the second season. Except that I haven't been able to find/watch the second season. Very disappointing. When and where will it be available to watch?

    Sappy Melodrama

    Not sure what the audience is supposed to be for this show. Is it a kids show? Are adults supposed to relate to this story? If so, strange overall voice. Maybe little kids would find the more melodrama moments somewhat realistic. Not sure what age demographic would relate to the comedy though? Over just pretty boring sloppy melodrama.

    Nostalgically hilarious!

    Get transported back in time to the awkward hilariousness of high school. A real entertaining trip! Love the point of view from the narrator and how the actors play it all out. A true coming of age story that is refreshingly vulnerable and silly. Really looking forward to season 2!

    Truly a Masterpiece. Well written and well acted. Hilarious for the most part. Treat yourself. Laugh out loud Comedy. Just watch and enjoy! You'll be surprised!
