For those of us in higher education, this movie rings true. The humor is not juvenile, but it is very funny. The characters are played very well by the actors. (Great casting. These are not super star actors---not yet.) The Director also does a great job. It also provides a good life lesson and those taking (or those who have taken) the various standardized tests will see that others feel as they do. This movie will be appreciated by those going through the standardized test anxiety well into the future. This movie should do well(if promoted) on DVD as most future audiences will know the pressure that doing well on these types of tests entails. Overall I thought the premise was very original and was happily surprised by the quality of the movie and cast.

This show is both entertainment and social commentary. Although the entertainment industry is what is probably best known by the writers and it is more interesting than many other industries, the points made can be applied to many other industries. It is the one show that is both escape and educational. Of course, I also have the same sense of humor (hopefully as good but we will see) so I "get" these show from the start. The writing and cast are top notch.
