It tells you on the website.

I don't think I ever watched this. It sounds like something I'd have wanted to watch back when it aired.

Ooh it was in 2001. I probably just don't remember it then. I don't even remember breakfast.

AHHH LOVED THIS SHOW.

I've got both seasons on DVD, they recently came out with them and I bought them asap.

Also Trivia: Leslie Bibb who was in Popular was in Iron Man as well :)

This show was over the top, unrealistic, cheesy and at parts massively sappy and depressing, it was PERFECT.

I remember watching the show. I watched it a lot back then, ever since the first episode to the last episode. MARY CHERRY WAS THE BOMB. Haha her antics were what made the show cool at times. Oh yea, if you're going to copypasta the trivia, how about this?

The actress who played Mary Cherry, Leslie Grossman, is in the show "What I Like About You" with Jennie Garth.


btw, Sara Rue, who played Carmen on Popular, got pretty thin. She's been in other movies or guest starred in other shows. I can't remember what though.

And omg when Harrison got AIDS (or was it leukemia or some other form of cancer? I can't remember?) and he was in the hospital... Damn, I cried at that part when his friend in his room was wheeled away and he fell to the ground crying, with Sam trying to comfort him. I cried a lot during that time. cry.gif It was really emotional. I mean I wouldn't say that those episodes were the best, but it definitely was moving, imo.

As for when Brooke got run over, I remember reading that the show was supposed to continue with another season, but WB (or was it FOX?) decided to cut it short and put in a new show that premiered. Quite sad. I wish it went on. :[ I need to get the DVDs.

I was watching this last summer, but I think I ran out of working links, so I never finished the whole show.

I think I was watching it initially because when it was actually on tv, I really wanted to see it, but rarely got to.

Aww how come? Hey was this show a hour long for each episode, or just 30 minutes? I think I remember it being an hour long...

Because I was 10 or 1, and my mom thought because it was on the WB it was too old for me, and was a good kid and generally did what I was told.
