Heartbreak High

heartbreak high is a fantastic television series from australia, and is an all round great production - from the filming to the acting itself, it is certainly on another level from your average sub-standard teen dramas.

heartbreak high is full of interesting and realistic characters, from the misunderstood Rivers to the eccentric Con. the storylines are brilliant and extremely gripping, and this is magnified by the superb acting talents on show, such as Scott Major (Rivers)and Kym Wilson (Sam Robinson. the gritty storylines do not shy away from real life issues such as drug abuse, family break-ups and troubled relationships, and this is refreshing to see in teen drama. there is also comic relief in parts, which helps present a fully rounded piece of drama. a great example of drama at its finest.

My opinion: Callan Mulvey is the hottest guy I've EVER SEEN. Damn beautiful. I read an article on him once where he said he thinks girls like his character because they like someone who's wild and daring. I say girls like his character because he can be a self-centered smartass, tough, a rebel, but he does care for his friends and can be quite a sweetheart. Boy, we just melt for that. We all want to tame the beast. Plus he's damn funny. Oh, and he's the reason why I got my eyebrow ring :)

But even if it wasn't for this beautiful creature I'd still watch the show for all the other characters and the issues they deal with. It's eye-opening and open-minded. 20 minutes a day well spent and, well..it brings out the adolescent in me :)

This series was very gritty and hard hitting from the start dealt with real life issues from the view of mostly poor or working class students in a surbuban high school many of the issues would not suit the pc world we live in today definitely worth a watch

By far the favorite series from my childhood. "Beverly Hills" and others from the genre can not come close. It has been aired for 7 seasons, has 210 episodes and was a springboard for a bunch of Australian stars. Maybe it's not a masterpiece of cinema, but it is best in the genre without any competition. Mostly because it's realistic. I mean, how many people in the world can relate to rich snobs from Beverly Hills... The events in this series are something most similar to growing up in Serbia that we had the opportunity to watch on television. And we all know someone who is the image of every character in the series. It's amazingly addictive and 210 episodes of 45 minutes flies by in a jiffy.

9/10

I would advise everybody to watch it! It is realistic, good acted, and has great storylines. Almost every episode is wonderful. Hope it never ends!
