Hartley, coeurs à vif

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

This is the best show i have ever seen in my life. Its very very very realistic, with great actors, who also act very good. This show deals with problems present today, some of them are very serious, but also there is many funny moments. My favorite characters are Drazic and Anita.

ratings 10+/10

Heartbreak High is one of my favourite tv shows. I used to love watching it after school on tuesdays? on the BBC. They used to show it on the school holidays too, but this year it aint on :( anyway.....hh was a great show when it started. The grittyness of it was brilliant but it wasnt overplayed. Each character was given an equal time in the spotlight. The story of Nick and Jody was amazingly portrayed. But things started to change when the heartley high kids had to move to another school. Sure there were still many great storylines and characters at that time, like ryan, anita, sarah, nikki etc, but somewhere along the line it seemed to loose its way. By the final series it was still good, but it had seemed to have lost its edge. That was the main selling point about heartbreak high, it was telling tough stories about un-perfect kids, sure they all looked good, but all of them did have their demons, and thats what made it so appealing. It just seemed by the end series it was time to finish. I have so many favourite characters from the show, but my all-time favourites have to be mai, anita, katarina, ryan, nikki, drazic, con, mel, danny, jody, d'espo, nick.....ok thats nearly all of them, what can i say, i love the show!

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

This is one of those u grew up with!! It was just like being in the show in those days! By far the best Aussies have made ,of course, i love BH90210 as well., ,but these two shows are totaly different, while BH is showing a tipical American way of things where everything is shiny and $$$$$ , HH shows more reality ,of how life actually really is for 99% of the ppl. Ill for sure never forget this show,and i always prefer the old days cause everything was better then, and i always say how everything sucks today, from music movies tv shows, ppl in general .. im kinda actually happy its like that cause that way ,things like HH and such get to be even more special. The only new thing thats making me have those old feelings is Stranger Things ... nothing else.

ps i forgot to say the only one thing i dont like about both HH and BH90210 .. its that the actors in both were cc 10 years older then the roles they were playing ,and thats one thing that REALLY bothers me in shows and movies .. ,..now , luckily it didnt bother me back in the days
