What a waste of my time!!!

Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Such a frustrating disappointment

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.

Yeah, this show is good, but the reason it got discontinued right after season 2 in the wrong time because of the bad relation between former WB network president Jamie Kellner and the entire WB network station.This show was favored by the entire WB network station, but not by Jamie Kellner. Jamie is both an ableist and an ageist and that's why he messed up this show's entire second season and that led to this show's discontinuation.This show may need to be rebooted and aired in a low public type of cable network station, so it can last beyond 3 or more seasons without problems.

One of my favorite shows. I started watching Popular and I felt myself being sucked in by the powerful emotions encountered in this show. The acting is believable, but one thing I found about this show is that it is somewhat exaggerated. I don't know how high schools are now, but I still think that some of the themes explored are slightly misleading, and stereotypical. Nevertheless, a good show, capturing the heart of the confusing whirl of emotions in the high school experience, and I would recommend this show to anyone open minded. Mind you, the first time you watch this show, you will be confused, but give it a few episodes, then you will agree with me. It is very different from other shows that I have watched.

It was doomed from the start, I guess... Finally, a show with some intelligence, placed (unfortunately) in the prime time spot of what was it? Friday NIGHT?! Lucky for me, I was under 21 at the time the show was on, just barely too young to partake in the bar scene. So I looked forward to watching TV on Friday nights while my boyfriend (at the time) was whooping it up. I think Popular was directed toward what I call "the forgotten years," those people born between "gen. X" and "gen. Y". (or "gen. why?" ...if you will) I am a member of that demographic, Too young to remember the birth of MTV or the whole "Grunge" thing, yet too old for IPods, Rap-Rock, and vocational schools. But maybe the lack of marketing toward people in my age range has been beneficial to me. (I have very little credit card debt.) But at the same time I challenge network execs to try and entertain me again. And this time, don't cancel my favorite show prematurely. Or hell, sell me a DVD of 'Popular' or 'My So-Called Life' for God's sake! ---Christina B, Portland Oregon

I remember watching this show when it started. The only thing I got from it was that the people who made it were obviously unpopular in high school and remained obsessed with their unpopularity throughout their lives, until the chance came for them to make a fictional TV show where they could turn the tables on those who wronged them - fictionally, of course.This show was so unrealistic. The "unpopular" kids were not unpopular, they had a normal amount of friends. It was just that they obsessed about being part of the "in" crowd. Pretty pathetic if you ask me. They thought they had the Constitutional right to be invited to the cheerleader parties, the football player parties, etc. Like, get a life already.If you want to be successful in life, then get good grades and get into a good college. If you want to be popular, then exercise and get a good hair stylist. All the show was really about was the longing to be popular without doing the latter. Totally pathetic, especially since it was written, produced and directed by adults who obviously were making daily visits to their therapists to overcome feelings of inadequacy because they weren't football players or cheerleaders in high school, and now they got to make a TV show where all their childhood wet dreams came true. Like some sort of great cleansing. Maybe they should have just gotten guest spots on the Oprah show and spilled their guts, and let the healing begin. It would have saved the rest of us from one more stupid TV show.
