Good Trouble

13 is not enough! I have never been urged to write something here before, considering i have been a member of imdb for more than a decade and being a real movie and tv buff, it is weird. But, this tv show is amazing. It embraces family, friendship and social awareness on such a level that i wish every second of it that it was real and it was my life. I really want to see everyone growing old and having a full life for the rest of my life. Keep 'em comin'!!

I really wanted to like this show because I enjoyed The Fosters, but I'm struggling. Good Trouble? More like Bad Decisions. Callie and Mariana continue to make one bad decision after another and they have surrounded themselves with a whole menagerie of people who do the same. They are supposed to now be a law school graduate and an MIT graduate. If they made decisions like they continue to do now while they were in college, neither would have graduated or landed their jobs. The writers are letting them down by continuing to write them as the teenage girls they were rather than the women they should have become.

After the successful TV show "The Fosters" came to an end, this new show brings Callie and Mariana to Los Angeles. As you may know, the finale of "The Fosters" already jumped a few years forward and introduced Callie and Mariana as recent graduates who were planning on starting their careers in L.A. .

While this new show might try to present the lead characters in a more mature light, the initial steps of both Callie and Mariana in their new professional setting are still cluttered with some of their old habits. After their degrees and life-forming years at university, you can't really estimate how advanced Callie and Mariana could behave because many of their previous remnants from "The Fosters" show are still in their daily lives - like dating/boys or their lively dynamic with their mothers. One aspect, their unbound sisterly love and support for each other, is still as strong as before and carries over their belief that family always comes first.

Whether "Good Trouble" will be able to allow Callie and Mariana to mature beyond their foster years remains to be seen. The production quality, the new setting and promising story line are certainly a great start.

Look, I'm 62, and this series is definitely not targeting me. I'd say it's targeting 20-something women who want to watch spunky heroines overcome odds and have sex. And that's fine, because that's a market.

Even though I'm old, I do like some youth entertainment, like Euphoria or Impulse, but Good Trouble is pretty bubble-headed. I only took a look because I'd seen glowing reviews, but I found it pretty intolerable from the first 5 minutes.

Still, the thing's got lots of energy and cute leads (who look like high schoolers to me because everyone looks so damn young nowadays). So I won't say you should watch it, only that *I* shouldn't watch it.

Seriously cool spinoff.This is what you always expect and never get from spinoffs.
