Secret Life of the American Teenager, Anyone?

[Babyjustrun]

It's kind of like watching a train wreck. You know what's going to happen, but you keep watching anyway.

You've got that right.
And it's a pretty train wreck.
Pretty as a car crash..
Okay maybe that doesn't work.

ahh me me me me me love that show!!

i'm listening to it right now in the other room while i'm typing this
i keep running back and forth at the good parts lol

 

[BabyPiglet]

I watched the first episode last night. It's...awful. I find the worst acting to be coming from Amy's best friends. Ew.

I Tivo'ed some of the marathon, so I'll give it one more chance.

I used that analogy when it first came out.
I was texting my (then) bf and I was like I'm watching the dumbest show ever but I CAN'T STOP! It's like a car crash. I need to see what's going on!

I still love this show. No matter how predictable it is. (If not just for Grace and Adriane...)

 

[Babyjustrun]

I love most of the characters.

The friends are pretty bad. I don't like.. well the african american one, I seriously forgot their names. It's like Lauren and something..
The red headed one used to be on Still Standing, and she was good in that.

 

[3mtn-kate]

Yeah, I have to admit the acting is some of the worst I've seen. xD
But it is verrryyy addicting. I'm so excited for tomorrow!
I watched the season finale the other night, so I'm caught up again.

ha i will agree with that

i dont really care though i still love it lol i'm very vulnerable to addictions i have so many shows that i CANNOT stop watching, it's bad...i realize i have a problem. lol

 

[GoofysOnlyGirl]

haha I am watching it right now. I am pretty sure it is on every TV in my house too. My mom has been watching it all day as well.
I agree that the acting is INCREDIBLY bad. The story lines are pretty much 100% unrealistic. But I honestly cannot stop watching lol.
Oh & its Molly Ringwald, and I pretty much love her, even if she is a mother now.

 

[Babyjustrun]

I love Molly too!
It's her voice or something.. dunno, maybe it's her eyes?
But she's great in this.

Lauren and Madison. XD

Madison is a horrible actress, at least in this show. She was fine in Still Standing.

 

[GoofysOnlyGirl]

I forgot to add, the friends irritate me to NO END. Like seriously......they act like they have never heard of someone their age having sex before. Seriously, go to pretty much any public high school, and you will meet at least ONE person who has already had sex ect. Like the kids in this show act soooo sheltered, it kind of bothers me. I am so weird I know.

Did I mention I love this show?

Dear god yes she is. Amy's dad is just funny with his overacting. I mean I guess he isnt THAT bad, but he does make me laugh with each of his rants.

The opening song scares me a bit...its kinda...stupid.

 

[Babyjustrun]

Oh my god.
I LOVE the opening song.
Frig, I know it's cheesy.

 

[GoofysOnlyGirl]

I also tend to like Amy's clothes, even if they are meant to make her look not pregnant lol. The clothes are still cute.

I love her clothes too. In the preview where she's talking to Ashley, I love love her clothes.

Another thing that bothers me is they can't seem to go a scene without mentioning sex. It's completely unrealistic. xD

Not really... sex is a normal topic among teenagers. We don't talk about it all the time, but it comes up more often than not, at least with my group.

Well the show does revolve around a pregnant teenager and the people she surrounds her self with. Makes sense to me. If I found out my girl was pregnant, it would be hard to talk about much else. Plus they are teenagers!

 

[Babyjustrun]

Lol well with my friends we talk about sex a lot. Not quite literally about it, but I make sexual jokes all the time (like suggestive stories, just as a joke) to creep them out.
They're quite far fetched lol.

I know it's talked about, but people don't usually talk about it in every single conversation.
