I quite like the series and want to see more of it. Also I know it is fiction. But it made me questioning myself if it is allowed in the UK to interview students without an adult the way the series approaches. There are some small continuation errors easy to avoid. ;) Apart this, as I said, I quite like it.
Genre: Teen drama/mystery
Its very difficult to do teen-orientated shows well. Inexperienced actors/actresses often either seem wooden or they don't have the experience to get into the depth of the character. Plots often are adapted to suite the needs of the inexperienced cast, which deteriorates from the narrative. This is why Get Even is very good, is because despite it being a teen show, it has none of the above failings.
Not only is it written in a very believable manner, the casting is magnificent. The character interactions are very true to form and seem natural, although sometimes a little cliche. The pace is perfect and keeps you watching.
For this genre, UK television is miles ahead of anything out of the US. This is a teen drama done right, and lots of networks can learn from this.

This is a teen based series with teenage scenarios! The creepy adults that sat behind a keyboard critiquing this series like it was being nominated for an Oscar or presented at a film festival needs a mental evaluation. I would've liked to see more "Get Even" scenarios!
It is entertaining but the plot has some holes, the writting and acting could be a bit better too. But for a softer teen drama it is quite nice and I would actually like to see a season 2
When will people stop commissioning high school dramas with twenty-somethings as the lead characters? It adds a dimension of ridiculous to the whole thing that's difficult to see past. The story arcs are okay, the writing is a cliché, some of the acting is wooden, balanced out by some good stuff. Cinematography and production is excellent and carries the whole thing. It is blaring my obvious what is going to happen mid-series. It's alright, I finished it, but it's not better than six stars where it has the potential to have been a LOT better.
Major biggest gripe really is with the casting and setting unattainable standards for actual teenagers watching. Zero effort has even been made to make them not look 20-something, when we are dealing with what must be meant to be 16/17 year olds at the eldest.
