It's a cute show and I'm glad to see some lgbt content in the mainstream. That being said, it's unfortunate that the characters don't really represent the usual gay person. Most of us would have loved to be like the main character in real life. He's a really heteronormative version of a gay person....or maybe he's bi.... i haven't got that far. However the other character that is confirmed gay is the straightest teenage guy that I've seen. Usually we have to learn to love ourselves for those things that separate us from straight society. Let's face it, threes two guys would've gotten along just fine in high school. I also get the feeling that these characters aren't gay in real life. It's unfortunate because there are thousands of gay actors who could've gotten this role and helped to show the real experience. I'm just disappointed that there isn't more realistic portrayal on tv of the experience I've had. Might just be a me thing, but it factors into my feelings about this show. I wanted to like this, and so far I do, but the unrealistic version of gay teens is a big factor in the rating I gave. This could almost just be about a straight guy and it wouldn't have to change at all. I'll appreciate this small step in the right direction, but I'm still waiting to more.

This is the exact kind of wake up call that we need today. I don't want to spoil anything, but it's such an artistic view of what happens to the world when social media is the center of our lives. It's amazing, and I totally recommend this episode.

If you remember Hannah Montana, then forget about it before watching this. There's nothing Disney about it. The story of Ashley O is an interesting look into the world of an overproduced pop star, and what happens when that pop star doesn't want to cooperate anymore. Then add in some future technology and see what happens. The story that coincides with that is just to show the impact the pop star has over the little girl's life. Give it a chance.
