People are voting emotionally.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Single dad George Altman (Jeremy Sisto) is leaving NYC and bringing his daughter Tessa (Jane Levy) to the suburbs. The rebellious teen is not happy with the otherworldly Stepford Wives existence. She becomes friends with loner Lisa Shay (Allie Grant) and Medium obsessed Malik (Maestro Harrell). She also makes an enemy of queen bee Dalia Royce (Carly Chaikin). On the other hand, Dalia's mom Dallas (Cheryl Hines) would become a great friend.Jane Levy started the show at 21 and that's probably the only minor complaint I have about this show. It's not unexpected for network shows about high school to have older actors play young teens. The cast of characters are a wacky bunch. Tessa has a superiority attitude and it's funny to see the culture clash. I love the hilarious Carly Chaikin and her stone faced delivery. It squeezed out 2 and a half seasons before being canceled.

A New York City teenager moves from the city to the suburbs not without fighting her father. Anyway, Jeremy Sisto does a great job in playing her father. Jane Levy does an excellent job as the teenager. Cheryl Hines plays Dallas, a wealthy suburbanite housewife, with her daughter, Dahlia (reminds you of Paris Hilton). Anyway, the move to the suburbs from the city is like moving to another planet in the daughter's eyes. Things are done differently. Anyway, I enjoy the best part about the show is the casting of Saturday Night Live alums, Ana Gasteyer and Chris Parnell, as the neighbors. I enjoy the show except it is up against another sitcom on another channel. It's hard to choose at times which one to watch. Unlike most sitcoms, there is no audience. Anyway, I enjoy the sitcom overall. I hope it lasts for awhile. We need laughter in our lives today.

I recommend watching the first episode: funny, witty and you can't help but laugh a lot of times.Second episode...not that funny. The first part of the episode was stale. You knew what was going to happen, you had seen it before. Therest of the episode had potential to be funny. The story was there, but the dialog was just not funny, at all.What happened? Writers, when writing future episodes: be sharp in your dialog, be funny, be witty, and be smart.So watch the first episode and skip the second.

I love the filming perspective of this show, as well as the setting. It almost has that vivid "Pushing Daisies" feel to it.As suspected, in reading just the two reviews currently posted, not many understand what it is to be this male / female in which, Jane Levy portrays and it is even harder as a girl (as a male, I can attest to that). I'm afraid that the majority of the viewers are therefore, not going to respond well to this show.My wife is not your typical "Girl," and while beautiful, never fancied the latest fashion / trends, gossip, makeup, fake-baking, celebrity nonsense, or idolize and embody female figures...and as a consequence, has to go through the rude remarks about clothing, like, "oh! that's, uh, interesting..." whilst at work and has been picked on, bullied and called Lesbian by other girls because she'd rather mind her own, listen to punk, rock, etc. Read, draw, sew patches onto her green / grey jackets and wear them with her black tights, a jean skirt and a pair of converse.This show is geared toward those few girls we knew, who were literally stuck at the epicenter of what seems to becoming a progressively, fake and unabashedly dim society. Mothers who want to be 20 again, clubbing, shopping, back-stabbing, not unlike their daughters and-oh! the vanity and completely unaware of entertainment and politics in other cultures / countries etc. Because of this, I fear the show will not last past season 1, or if we're lucky, a season 2. Pushing Daisies (another intuitive and brilliant show), did not go past Season 2, because it's not a reality show and it's not Gossip girl, Sex in The City, or Grey's Anatomy.The only thing about this show that I have a hard time grasping, is just how much story-line can their be with this sort of topic? Will they sell Jane Levy's character out? What I think they should do, is at least bring others in like her (new students), so she at least has a small circle of friends and then portray what a lot of us had to go through and lose one of those friends from your circle, who decided they wanted to fit in with the "majority."
