Review

not sure what it is about this series that has people so excited. winning golden globes, fresh air interviews, widely recommended, etc. there’s not a whole lot here to actually recommend. none of the acting is noteworthy, none of the decent tna that attracts some to sex and the city, none of the well-summarized lessons of that show, and very little in the way of respectable qualities of the characters. if my daughter ends up like any of these self-important sluts i’m likely to have a heart attack.

maybe that’s the point of the show? a warning of what’s to come if you coddle your kids? a warning to teenage girls that life in the big city having sex with mysterious artsy types isn’t all it’s cracked up to be? i don’t honestly know.
