This series is about a group of very beautiful people (!) who have absolutely no reason to be friends. The actors are decent but the character development is extremely bad. All the characters are very shallow, and the scrip lucks any kind of creativity. The situations that the "friends" get into are scripted terribly, and things happen out of the blue with the lame excuse of "youth". "Youth" is not an excuse for poor writing though, and just using very cute faces is not enough to make a good show. I am curious to see if this show will be on air for much longer. I hope that MTV will spend more for writers in the future.
This show grew up so much since episode 1. I've just watched episode 11 and I found the plot really catchy. It's simply close to reality and it's worth watching. The stories of these 5 friends are just getting better each new episode and for common newbies in real world... I found it helpful, if you get it. Daphne's story line couldn't get any better and what it goes for Miles, who's now sort of hooked up with the messed up girl with no control on spending matters(Daphne)... Well, they turned out to be a great couple in the end. Right, I had some doubts because of the friendship background history they had. Sophia is taking risks, getting more wild and out of her shell... basically she is starting to live, and this couldn't have been more right for her writer career. Lou and Raviva are dealing with so much at the same time... They are such a catch to keep up with. And by the way Raviva's songs are a cool add to this show that has all the ingredients to work out. I just hope MTV doesn't cancel it.
This in first look may seem to be a cliché show about young friends trying to put together a life in Chicago... but once you start following subsequent episodes, believe me.. it's kinda fun. It reminds us in our mundane lives, that how friendships and true bondings are important to support one another and go through good and not so good times and circumstances.It's a youthful and enthusiastic show, which gives us a surprisingly refreshing view and a positive outlook towards, people, friendships, relations and lives all together, with keeping the background quiet realistic in today's modern American big city life. A good show indeed... of course for those who get the hang of it...!
This show is pretty bad. The story lines seem pretty flimsy, the humour is mostly cringe worthy, and all the characters are irrational and unrealistic. It is a shame, because most of the actors are hot (with the exception of Lou) and the acting itself isn't terrible.
This could be a decent show, but as it stands it just seems like yet another desperate attempt by MTV to appeal to us 20-somethings feeling sorry for ourselves because 'lifes so hard'. It certainly falls short of that for me, but I can see it being a hit with kids who are fresh out of high school and expecting life to be all 'friends forever' and are gullible enough to believe that two adults and a baby can afford a 2 bedroom loft apartment on 1 salary.
I'm really surprised this crap came from the same person who produced Six Feet Under, because comparatively, this is a load of (not totally unwatchable, but still stinky) garbage.

I watched the show just to pass my time and sleepy with no interest of liking it.. But I'm loving it!! Well now I'm in a trace of realizing what life may take me.. And its so true that what we want or dream of or expect never happens.. This is one show that shows, things may not happen the way we always wanted, still have something that makes a difference and something to look for. And loved all the "FIVE" characters.. Sofia : confused and waiting for that special time Miles : dreamer Daphne : aggressive and i freaking love her Lou : expect the unexpected Raviva : now a mother.. Screw what some people may or may not agree with spoiler's.. Guys and gals (20 - 30 ) ages you will love it Enjoy...
