I am chronically online so my perspective might be skewed but this show seems to generate a lot of online interaction, at least on Twitter. I feel like it got steady views. I am just not sure which streaming network would want it. I don't think they would actually take it but I think it would do well on Freeform if they are willing to adhere to the network's censorship guidelines. This show failed by focusing on the most boring characters. It also needed to give in more to the campy side of things. Oh well.

I am happy for Thomas though he needs to stick with portraying adults moving forward.

It's just such bad writing like every episode was the exact same shit.

The characters gab about drama at school > Julien does some very poor scheming > People get mad at Julien > Teacher Kate has convoluted Gossip Girl plans > Fun cocktail event where drama goes down > Julien learns a lesson

Like EVERY episode lol

oh yes. it go stale really quick.

They really needed a s1 pool party style episode or something similar. also since they brought in the teachers I honestly would have expected more school centric episodes anyway. Like where is the messy Ivy League or alumni party? Also the fashion was so uninspired. In this day and age I would have expected one of the girls to be a rich vintage fashion girly or something.

I was telling my man how every episode this season was the same thing?!
Problem>Julien being annoying > some sort of party> all gets resolved > gossip girl setting the plot for the next episode…
Like they were ALL the same thing?
