The basic plot line is that a girl in high school gets knocked up at band camp. Yep! BAND CAMP! But not only does she get knocked up; she gets knocked up by the most popular boy in school who, get this, already has a girlfriend!! omg.
Ridiculous.
Three episodes in (this one entitled "I feel sick") and Amy the pregnant one is starting to show and has a fake boyfriend whom she's held hands with at school. I missed the second episode unfortunately, but it seems as though some people found out about Amy's fragile condition including her fake boyfriend - I don't even know his name - but lucky for Amy, he's totally fine with it. Right. As if a 15 year old guy would be so accepting of his fake girlfriend being with child.
But maybe this is a different world. A world where curfews are 9:57 p.m. and parents look an awful lot like struggling actors from The Dukes of Hazzard, Melrose Place and just about any 80's high school movie.
Who's in charge of casting?! A genius, that's who.
There's just too much to say about this show that my brain feels like it's going to explode. I had so many jokes saved up and actually wrote some down while watching the pilot, but sadly I've misplaced them all. However, I feel a weekly blog about this great program is in the works.
Stay tuned!
