SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

I saw a prior comment that said that this shows target audience is teenagers. I disagree. I'm 51 and I fully enjoy it. I did watch both Laguna Beach and The Hills back in their day... This show definitely Has that same feel. It was a little slow the first few episodes. But one I got to know the characters/cast a bit I was then fully invested and I look forward to it each week!

I gave it a 7 because it is well done in it's genre. There is work in this and I have to respect that. It is targeted towards 12 to 16 years old girl youngsters who have dreams and like the drama. They will love to hate some characters and have favorites. The music is generic pop-style. I can't find anything wrong with it besides that it wasn't targeted for me and would hate people to bash it for that reason. I do not work for for the TV business and often smash other TV shows for good reasons but this wasn't one of them.
