So when I saw the commercials for this I thought it looked like the worst show of all time... and it actually wasn't! It wasn't the greatest show of all time or anything... but it certainly wasn't bad.
So the show follows this teenager mostly and he knows he's gay but isn't ready to come out of the closet yet... and I thought that seemed really real. I've never been through that situation so I can't really tell... but it felt very repressed and awkward and to me it felt like he was learning it about himself instead of just coming out to everyone else. I don't know... it was interesting.
One thing I kinda had a problem with but also sort of liked was the male anorexia thing... I think its powerful to have it in the show and I applaud them for that... but I don't think it should be something that should really make fun of. I feel like male anorexia is probably almost as common as female anorexia but males don't always talk about things. I don't know. But it definitely happens often... so cool that they acknowledge it... but idk. I didn't laugh at the "man anorexia" joke... and then they sort of ignored it and it just wasn't my favorite thing about the show.
Also... I didn't like Shannon. I love that there is a character named Shannon. I've been waiting my whole life for a character named Shannon... and I like that she's smart... but she's such a weirdo! Lol. I think I'll end up liking her. I can't stand the commercials with the "I made it in woodshop" thing... ugh. I don't even want to explain it... don't google it its gross. Lol.
And I kind of like shows where they are like "our family is a bunch of weirdos, but that's why we love them." And I didn't really get that from the mom in this show... which I think is a real situation that a lot of moms probably have. And there are a lot of things you just don't say. Very repressed... which I think most people are in some way or another. So... that makes sense.
I also just kind of didn't think the dad and the oldest son were that funny. They weren't bad, I think they'll have funnier situations... but yeah.
There were also dream sequences... idk. It wasn't the funniest... I feel like they'll get better though. It was a little weird and random... but it was creative.
Overall... I think it'll get a lot better. I would watch this again, I have faith in this show. It has good moments... I kinda think it's not boring. I think it'll be solid next year.
So yeah. I'm happy it didn't suck! Lol. I liked it! Kind of. Haha.
Byeee!
