I watched it and I liked it. I love Molly Ringwald so that was enough reason for me to watch it. They have me hooked in on the story so I will be watching next week as well. The characters are fairly stereotypical at this point, but reviews I've read say that they move past that soon. I certainly could tell it was from the same people as 7th Heaven, which I enjoyed but thought was a little cheese ball at times.

I did I really did not like it.Gabby hated it.The dialoge and stuff was just odd.Statments like 48.5% of teens are having sex.Gabby said all they talked about on the show was sex.It was tastful,I just did not enjoy it at all.

I just watched it on my return from vacation. I loved it! I really liked the Jack character and his storyline (Christian struggling with abstinence). I was surprised they dove so deep with his storyline immediately, but it got me interested in the side characters, which I think is hard to do in a pilot. While I can see that a lot of the dialogue was sexually focused, I think this will lessen a bit once the other storylines are really expanded upon. Overall, I think it was done tastefully and will keep me tuning in. Well done!

Overall, for me, I liked it. I did get into the characters easily, they certainly had some twists and turns (Jack at the end) and I will be tuning in again.


I didn't let Alexis watch the first episode, too much sex talk for me. (I live in that delusional world where she is innocent still.) If the talk settles down some I will let her watch, but I don't know that it will hold her attention.

The fact that everyone was talking about sex was what reminded me of 7th Heaven and why that show would irritate me sometimes. Whatever the topic of the week was, all three storylines touched on it a little bit, if it was smoking, than every character we saw had some sort of run in with smoking. It was like the writers didn't think the views could get the message without a sledgehammer.
