I'm not from the United States so I don't know if you have to be a newyorker to watch the show or if the show is just bad. I've seen other shows from USA that I like, so my guess is that this is not a good one. I don't understand the reviews saying "this is a realistic show". People in NYC can walk almost naked in public all time of the year? I thought it was more of a cold city. At first I liked because I saw the show as a dark comedy. But now I'm at season 3 (I have fast forwarded most of the episodes) and I don't think I will keep watching it is too painful to watch. And there is so many clichés about women. I've never met a woman who goes to the bathroom with another woman. No one needs company to pee, that never happens. Friends never take baths together, that's just weird if youre older than 10. These women are so desperate and self-centered I can't relate. Even those moments when you're lost in life you don't react like a spoiled brat all the time. Unless you are one, but this show have not just one but four spoiled brat that can't listen to each other, so these are the worst friends ever. I don't know if this is on purpose but there is not a single character on the show that is likeable. Or funny. That's why I will stop watching this not comedy, not drama, just weird cringe situations that never happens in real life (except maybe in NYC). That's the problem with the show: it tries to be realistic showing this impossible situations all the time. Boring and annoying.

You can FastForward 50% of the show and you won't miss anything. The dialogs are predictible, the silences are too long, so is the crying and yelling.

The way that they deal with the asperger's kid is horrible.

The show should be call the parent trap, all the problems you can have when you grow up in a family that forces you to follow the same path. Everyone has to get married (heterosexual, of course) and have children to be complete.

I don't understand why no one goes to therapy, they should send a better message, some characters have depression and anxiety but they never see a professional. The message is "family is always the solution to every problem" and it's not. That's why every member of this family makes bad choices trying to copy the nuclear family model.

The acting is good, the stories are good, but the actors are closer to 30 than 17.

They should play college students at least. That would be more interesting and original.

Not all drama in life happens in high school, why there are a million shows like this in the same period of life?

And why do I have to fill six hundred characters when all I have to write fits in 300? This rule is so annoying it forces me to keep writing something that makes no sense like this. Still 127 characters to fill? What else should I say, the show is not that deep and there is not much to say. Lalalallalalalalaallala.
