So, Hulu added the show a couple weeks ago, and I'm finally getting around to watching it. I remember years ago seeing one episode and thinking I would really like to see the rest, but I just never managed it. So now I am.
I really like it for the most part. I think Rayanne is my favorite character. I'm kind of surprised the actress didn't do much afterwards, because I think she's really good.
I don't really like most of the guy characters though, Rickie being the exception. I find it rather cliche that people starting discussions about the show on Hulu all want Brian and Angela to get together. I pretty much hate both Brian and Jordan. Brian has absolutely no self-esteem to the point of repelling everyone he's around, and Jordan is a complete space cadet - *hand waves in front of face* Hello? Anyone home? I knew Brians in school. I never knew a Jordan. Either way - ew.
Angela I don't know what to do with. I think it's probably because in many ways I was a lot like her. Which I'm sure was the whole point - we're supposed to relate to Angela.
I think it's kind of good that there was only one season. I think they covered a lot with the episodes they did, and even now, having watched all but a few, I can feel them running out of steam a little bit. I like that it's this flaming brand in TV history that burned bright & fast. It suits the show.
I'm on "Betrayal" (wow) after which there are two more episodes, which I will probably watch before poking my head back in here, so don't worry too much about spoilers. But please, discuss!
