I couldn't finish an episode. Was it worth it at all, in that stupid sort of way?

I mean it had a lot of entertaining moments and characters.

If you can handle teenage dramas without rolling your eyes the first 6ish episodes are fun.

The last 2-3 are hilariously terrible.

I wouldn’t go out of your way to watch it but if you want to turn your brain off and enjoy teenage dramas I guess go for it.

Sara Cameron is ridiculously hot.

The show would have been 50% better had the made just these simple changes that don’t even involve the plot.

1. Cut out all usage of Pogues and Kooks monikers after the 1st episode or two.
2. Just fricking call him Jon. The hickified John B bullshite did get tiresome real quick. Even J.B. would have been better. John B is just moronic, Braxton and Braydon level shite.
3. Rename Topper. Jesus. What the frick was with all these wonder bread white trash names?
4. More of the two female leads in bikinis.

Without spoiling too much, they had these 16 year olds just committing crime after crime, multiple felonies. And whatever the stupidest course of action could be, doing that.

I expected more goonies and less OC.

Topper and the white drug dealer were cast perfect.

Ok, I've read all the comments and I have to be honest with myself. Even though the girls are cute.

I couldn’t believe some of the praise it was getting from this board. I made it 2 episodes. It was just so bad. I guess it might be one of those it’s so bad it’s good type of shows to some people

It has Moments of entertainment.

At episode 9 something truly stupid happened and my wife looked at me and said “do you even want to finish this? This show is made for retards”.

It is pretty dumb.

Yea. Pretty much. I hoped it got more Goonies though. Only reason I finished was boredom and these two though,

I'm only on episode 4 but I'm enjoying it. I'm curious what some of you expected from this show? I mean the entire cast is teenage kids and they act as such, not sure how you could blame the show for that since you should know going in that's what you're in store for. The story is interesting enough to hold my interest so I'll see it through.

It was over the top ridiculous and terrible, but still somehow entertaining.

Sarah Cameron is gorgeous (and yes the actress is 22) and they need a few more on her level for season 2.

For me, and this applies to any show not just a cheesy netflix teen drama, I can't stand when they constantly use deus ex machina to advance the plot. I watched 4 episodes I think and it just seemed like that was happening every time.

As i have said...I was entertained many times. The show is just dumb as shite and gets SUPER dumb in the last 3 episodes.

1. Entertainment

2. Did teenagers write the show?

Remember when television shows were expected to be good, and not "you should have known it was going to be bad"? Professional level production and imagination, what dumb things to expect from professional artists who get paid thousands per hour.
