I don't know if it's just pure nostalgia or if the show actually does reach a certain standard, but I binged this first season in one day and I found myself feeling all kinds of fun fluffy feelings. Plus, I actually laughed. Many times. At sitcom jokes. Yeah.
There's something fun and comforting about watching a sitcom series that sticks to a relatively simple concept. Not just because it's reminiscent of my teenage years watching this show's predecessor, but because there are so many shows aimed at young adults with these super convoluted and complex storylines, often focusing in on the horrors and downsides of life. This was a really nice break from all that. It's just a gang of teenagers being dorky and having crushes on each other and becoming best friends... plus, red and kitty are there, and that makes me feel all warm and mushy.
Do I think this series is Emmy nomination stuff? Hell no. Few sitcoms are. But I am really hoping it gets renewed for a second season. I need something cute and teenagey and silly in my life, and I don't think I'm the only one.
