Faking It - Più che amiche

Seriously this show is so entertaining! I saw a random fan trailer on youtube and thought I would check it out. I was surprised just how funny this show is.

The gay guy in it just makes it! All the one liners leave me in stitches every time.

I'm long past being a teenager, but this is still very funny!

I wish I went to a school that accepted everyone for being different and actually made those differences cool!

Check it out! Better yet, watch the whole season in one sitting!

p.s all the other characters (including the parents) just add to the awesome nature of this show!

Let's be honest; nobody watches this show because is deep and meaningful. We watch this show because is full of ships. Allow me to explain.

"Faking it" got out in 2014 for MTV, and it was an "Awkward meets gay" concept. The show revolves around Amy and Karma who are best friends.Karma desperately wants to be popular, and Amy wants to make her dearest friend happy. Therefore, when the whole school believe they are the first lesbian couple on school. The faking it begins and the shipping it as well.

The whole show is us hang on for the next Karmy (Karma X Amy) moment that make us want more. The show is full of drama and comedy. The characters are so charming we cared about them, and we want them to be happy but there are things to complicate to achieve and that's pretty good.

This show is full of LGBT representation and it doesn't make it seems like something odd or unique, it makes it seems normal. Therefore, if you are a teenager afraid of their sexuality, this show will make you see there's nothing wrong with you. Love is love. If you are one of those people who says "People want to make everything gay nowdays" then, this is not your show.

I have only seen the first two episodes right now, but I need to write this.

When I first heard of this show, I was skeptic (and probably rightly so, looking at the description). However, it really only took me one episode to realize this was going to be much better than anticipated! It's definitely not a masterpiece, it's such an obvious MTV-show it's not even funny (good and bad), but it's fun and easy to watch. Also, a show about high school where gay people isn't only there to get bullied and beaten to death is a lovely surprise.

My limited English stops me from writing much more, but I really just wanted to get rid of that terrible homophobic review on the front page that didn't give the show any justice at all.

If you'd like a mix of Awkward and G.B.F. this show is probably ideal for you

This series is still in its second episode and I find it quite enjoyable, but I don't know whether I should be outraged by it or not.

On one hand, I feel like it could be an attempt at representing the LGBTQIA community (or at least homosexuals) in a show that feels light and portrays an acceptant society; on the other, I fear it might be just exploiting an under-represented group to create humorous situations.

The series itself is fun, its fast pace and short episodes are quite successful at catching one's attention and the situations the characters are put in are a mix of uniqueness (due to the alternative setting they find themselves in) and typicality of teenage drama shows.

Considering the girls are neither actively lesbians (at the beginning, at least - Karma is probably bisexual, Amy COULD be a lesbian), nor too familiar with the queer community, the misconceptions seem to be justifiable, but it worries me that people who don't have considerable understanding of queerness might take them as true.

The story has a lot of potential to become an inspiration to teenagers who are struggling with their sexual identities, but it needs to be developed with caution, considering our society isn't as acceptable as the girls' school.

You definitely have to watch more than one episode. I like how the teenages actually swear, how they make fun of highschool television and how out there they went with it. Even made references to Glee haha. I think anyone who is a TV Buff should definitely just try it. The acting is fairly good too. I liked it cause it made something so unoriginal (highschool TV) original in the way it was made. Yeah it has stereotypes eg. beautiful girls unpopular, uncool kids cool and what not but thats the whole point of it. Using the typical aspects and doing something different with them eg. lesbian theme, irony and swearing.
