Teen pregnancy?

Someone wants to capitalize on Juno.

It just interested me because Molly Ringwald is in it haha :]
breannakristine
It looks really good if you ask me. I've always been a Molly Ringwald fan!

I probably will end up watching this at some point as a time-kill, but I don't predict a high level of success.
paperplane
Jesus Christ, please tell me you're not serious when you say it looks good. I can't go a day without seeing a commercial for it (well, probably because I watch Gilmore Girls daily), and it looks absolutely terrible. It's apparent that the girl can't act, and frankly, there's nothing secret about getting pregnant (because obviously there's no way this is going to end in her getting an abortion).

Hmm, personally, I thought it would have been better. Everything just seemed so ... unrealistic.

To me at least.
What did you think?
marzipan
Haha, I didn't see it, but my friend just told me that it was basically about a bunch of highschoolers having sex.

First time i saw the preview it reminded me of a attempted cheap knockoff of it.
I watched a bit of the end sortof and it was just kind of blahh.
loveOURworld
Hmm, I didn't know it was showing today until my friend told me about it. She said it had alot of sex :D
The-March-Hare

Wow.

Well, I know my faith in the youth of today has been rattled to it's foundations. Anyoe else?

Probably the fact that she was pregnant, but thats no surprise either.
bumbumx3
the cheerleader girl seemed so unreal.
and the pregnant teen's friends didn't
seem all that shocked. hmmm, maybe the acting
is just bad =/

No, the secret is that sex in high school makes kids unhappy. It's very moralistic.
purpleKat
i liked but honestly it could have been way better!
some stuff i wuz like wtf?! thats stupid! but yea i think maybe the acting wuz a bit off! the cheerleader wuz completely fake!

minioligo
It looks...stupid. HAHAH i'm gonna have to be honest. Just bad acting in general.
Amaranthus
The commercials irritate me.
Like we haven't watched a show with a similar premise.
Joanne
"From the creators of 7th Heaven..." killed it for me.

And then they showed Molly Ringwald, and I'm interested again.
ofconfidence
personally, i don't think the actors are that great, but hey ABC family doesn't always put out good tv shows (Kyle XY is an exception)

i'll probably keep watching however just to see if it gets any better :]
Joanne
Private Practice is a GREAAT ABC show!!
ofconfidence
haven't watched it.

lmao loool.gif who would have guessed?
gojira
i caught it and i'm wondering why it's broadcasted on fox family because they talk about sex 24/7. though you may see more scenes from gossip girl or the oc, they did not talk about it throughout a whole ep. also what annoyed me when the girl found out she was pregnant, her friends suggested she sleep with another guy and then lie to him and say he's the father.

GET THIS CRAP CANCELED.
paperplane
because it's all anti-sex. and they also showed 7th heaven, which dealt with "tough subjects" but was not condoning stupid things.

complete shit, though. bunch of one-dimensional stock characters to the point where it may as well have been an after school special.
Senta
I really liked it! :]
I didn't think I would, but I did.
I just didn't like the girl's friends oWo;;.
absinthe
Their acting. It killed me.
The-March-Hare
So... High Schoolers screw, and are miserable about it?

See, uhm, this is stupid.

I suspect that in a future episode, they may discover that smoking is naughty.

i only saw parts of it. What i was watching of it seemed like the acting was pretty bad.

haha, the kid that was saying "god will forgive you! God loves you!"
just made me laugh because of the acting
thatonegirl143
i saw it by accident. LoL. i was skipping thru the channels, it looked interesting, so i watched it. i didnt even know it was the premiere or anything..anyway....i liked it a lot. i want to continue watching the season "]
tokyo-rose
The premiere episode is all right. The acting is okay, too. The main actress is cute.
Joanne
OMG I'm watching it right now... this is so bad. SO bad. The acting is horrible, but not as bad as the script. People do NOT say those things - and they're not even clever unsaid things like in Juno.

And the counselor is so not hot. wth.
0nadia0
I just watched it...eek >< haha yeah I agree the counselor is not hot at all.
loveOURworld
I loved it.
One of my favorite shows. [:
Acting could be better tho.
xhidethedetails
Shows kinda bland but Its not totally horriable, I still watch it.
paperplane
I'm watching this for the comedic value, but it's still beyond me why every character is so stupid and one-dimensional.

I could also really use an explanation for why an innocent little girl like her would have a one night stand at band camp (???) without even using protection. Seriously.
Cyanide-
I guess she can chime in saying "one time at band camp..."

i think thats the whole point of the show.

i personally like it.

im sure the title of the show isnt specifically about Amy (the maing character) but the whole cast in general.
Amber14
what got me was critics say its a cross between 7th-heaven & Juno

loool.gif
icecreamisyummy
ive never seen 7th heaven it never looked interesting to me. i haveno idea what that show is about anyway.

idk why everyone is saying that its trying to be like juno...i mean thats not the only movie/ show with a teen pregnancy. an wasnt juno more about how she found that couple in the newspaper to take the baby.

secret life is more of the obstacles, pregnant teens go through when they first find out their pregnant. how some deal with it because of the fear of telling their parents and how other ppl around re act to it.

LMAO. true! its funny how that adds up.

i like this show because you actually see this stuff happening in real life. not like 7th heaven where everyone is all holy and obedient.
