I remember the movie. I couldn’t watch it to the end. I thought maybe the TV show might improve on it (critics seemed to be insistent). So I tuned in. Watched for, oh, about 10 minutes. Realized it was about teenaged angst for the umpteenth time and would have little or nothing to do with actual wholesome teenaged life, the kind I remember living. Tuned and never looked back.
Yes, never watch broadcast TV.
Frame of reference: I watch ‘Bones’, ‘NCIS’, ‘Burn Notice’, ‘Leverage and Harry Potter movies (ABC Family was designed by somebody in Hugh Hefner’s family, IMHO). That’s it. Maybe some NASCAR, if it’s Talladega, Lowes or Daytona. Maybe some baseball. Not much else. TV is not for people with forebrains much anymore.
