    • Trivia
      Even though the central characters, of which she is one, are all 15-year old, Amber Lancaster (Jenny) was actually 29 when filming began - beating actresses of other 15-year old characters such as, for example, Charisma Carpenter at the beginning of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (age 27), and matching Gabrielle Carteris' age at the start of Beverly Hills, 90210 in 1990.

    Funny Hilarious!!

    I was not expecting much from this series at first, but I actually liked it after getting into it. It was really hilarious and totally kept me entertained. Over the years I kinda kept away from MTV because most of the programming seemed to be reality based. Now I feel a little bit more interested in MTV now that I found a series that is funny and somewhat interesting.

    The guy that played RJ Berger has some talent in teen comedy, I wasn't expecting much from the cast but that guy is funny.

    Hopefully we will see more from this hilarious show!!
