When I was about the same age as the characters in the show, I watched "Flash Forward"... and loved it. It was real. The characters really feel like people at your own school, people you might be friends with. Or at least people you'd like to be friends with.
Even though it was in general a lot lighter and frothier than actual middle school, there was enough realism to make it convincing. Jewel Staite is absolutely incredible and continues to fascinate and amaze with her talent.
The stories were fun, and some of the dialogue was really incredible, particularly for what is considered a 'youth' show. I hope someday there are more young shows of this caliber.
Now if I can just get this on DVD!
