Good, more or less. Watching this weird a** show called Ridiculousness, it has me gasping all the freakin' time. I'm like, -gasp, sigh- -gasp, sigh- -gasp, sigh- the whole time. xD
It's not that funny, though. >>
I might as well watch Awkward. I mean, a friend of mine seems to like it. And besides, I want to stop gasping so much. xD

That's kind of funny though haha. (: And I haven't heard of either show, but I could understand how that gasping could get old after a while. X)

Well, Ridiculousness is a cheap rip off of Tosh.O, but Awkward is a teen drama about this girl who's pretty much screwed over by the universe. =w=
There's even this bitchy cheerleader, you know the type, but the one in this show is like... really fat and not pretty at all, if you can believe that. It'll be interesting to see how any of this really plays out. ;D
Considering I've just seen the first few minutes, I can't form a solid, concrete opinion yet. xD

I've watched the first five or so episode of Awkward, mostly out of boredom. It's okay as far as teen shows goes, imo.
I'm still not sure about the whole "We must stay virgin till we get married....But you can ******** me like an animal in the a**s though! =D" scene o-o.

...Osaka, are you trying to say that an unattractive, overweight girl can't be a cheerleader...?
I hate teen shows with a passion. D<
I've been watching I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant, I've been craving shitty American shows like that. =w= Makes me nostalgic, hanging around at home during the week with nothing else to watch~ It's like a car crash or something. 9w9 The most fun is critiquing the actresses' interpretation of the situation. Some of them really camp it up, it's great.

Wow, Lone, I didn't expect that from you. O-o
But oh well, I'll see how it goes for me. ><
I've been watching Death Valley more often than not, that show's screwed up. =w=
"What are you, some kind of idiot? You can't just go out and beat zombies with a bat, it's dange-- oh s**t!" -Hits zombie repeatedly in the head with his own bat- xD
@Loli -- Well, no. But this chick can barely jump two feet in the air and she acts like a 'Prima Bitcherina' about it the whole way through, she's the less cheerful cheerleader I've ever seen. Right after Peyton Sawyer, emo/loner wannabe. >>
I don't like them much either, but there's really not much else. And besides, my friend raves about it a little too much. >>
I gotta say though, I <3 that weird, yet cheerful, guidance councilor. I don't get what's with the stereotype that they're always really perky and random, though. >>

Wait wait wait, you say that this is "really fat"? And not pretty? o____o Take a step back, Osaka, and just look at what you just said, and what you sound like.
Maybe it was because my high school's cheerleading team was s**t, but none of them were particularly graceful or cheerful, and a good chunk of them of them would bring their toddlers to school to watch them perform. Mostly it was comprised of insecure girls who thought that if they became cheerleaders, they'd be popular and idolized like in those shitty teen movies, but of course, they weren't, so they latched onto the first boy who'd have them, and a large number of them got pregnant. None of them actually went to college. It was sad.

Well, no. It's not the actress, it's the image the character projects, I think. If she were the friend, or maybe even just not as bitchy, she might even be likeable. But as it is, she just reminds me of Lauren Zizes, from Glee, although that one's just a borderline b***h. And I don't particularly like Lauren to start with. >>

It's the fact that her weight or her appearance would affect her character at all that bothers me. That's my problem with teen/young adult shows; everything's so focused on how people look, it sets unrealistic standards.

Well, yeah. It's different from the norm I suppose, but, like I said, the personality doesn't help her case either. "Ooh, I'm so popular thanks to Daddy's money, now I'll just be a b***h to everybody so I can flaunt what Daddy's given me~!" She's still too one dimensional to actually dog too much, but I'll have to watch more of the show and see if she develops any. =o=

I think what Osaka meant is that, in the show, compared to all the anorexic girls who are TV Cheerleaders, she is coincided fat.
Also, if no one sees me after today, it's because Atelier Meruru killed me with it's overload of cuteness and panties shot, but mainly the cuteness.

Well, yeah. And the fact that, needless to say, the clothes they make her wear as Sadie just accentuate how anorexically skinny all the other girls are. Oh, and Kokoro, she had close to no development whatsoever; there was just this one scene where she cried to her mother over how she had gotten the 'fat gene' from her father, and that she wished she was skinny and pretty and could wear whatever the hell she wanted, without having to worry about how she looked. It came off as extremely fake, considering she condescendingly corrected at her mother seconds afterwards. >>
I <33 the Guidance Councilor, Valerie, though. Even though I wouldn't want to have her around/be her friend, she makes for some good comedy with her EPIC LEVELS of construing the few facts she has. Any scene with her was just a joy to behold, no matter how out there and crazy she is. =w=
Wow, that IS really full of japanese-ish cuteness. o=

In that first video, as she lands to the ground, she says "I don't get it, but it was fun~" DDDD= IS THIS A VIDEOGAME FOR 8 YEAR OLD GIRLS? IT SEEMS LIKE A VIDEOGAME FOR 8 YEAR OLD GIRLS.
...I have never seen anything more Japanese. It's a miracle they weren't wearing maid outfits or school uniforms.
