I saw a commercial for it during The Middleman...I think it looks really good and apparently is by the same producer as 7th heaven.. It looks like its got a lot of similarities to it but the main girl is a pregnant teen so it seems like it will be a lot edgier..

I'm not sure about it but I'll probably watch since it's from the creator of 7th Heaven.

I'll check it out for sure

Yeah i loved 7th heaven but i think the teen pregnancy thing adds a lot of relevancy to the show.. did yall see that thing on the news today about those teenage girls getting pregnant on purpose? i saw it on the Today show and then again on the local news...crazy.

Also, im sure you already realized but Molly Ringwald is the mom in it! ha, i love her!

It was on my local new but I fell asleep before it came on what did they do?

There was a huge spike in pregnancy at this high school and school officials looked into it and apparently a bunch of girls had made a "pregnancy pact" and were getting pregnant on purpose.. Heres an article on it if you wanna check it out... It just seems like with all the young celebrities getting pregnant and stories like these, teen pregnancy is all over the news... It will make watching this show very interesting, especially since it seems like they'll handle the subject very realistically whereas movies like Juno kind of glamorize teen pregnancy

Thoughts anyone?
I found it to be a bit preachy, and so much use of the word "sex" in the first episode alone! Gees! Typical Brenda Hampton preachiness....like 7th Heaven.

That said, I'll still continue to watch.

I laughed a lot during the show...so I guess it was good.

yeah, me too, at times. The red-head friend is funny. I just found it to be too after-school special, throwing sex in our faces. jmo

I really liked it.. I didnt find it too "preachy" at all...i thought it was pretty realistic.

I agree that the red haired friend is funny but i think the most inriguing character is probably Ricky. I liked how they revealed some stuff about his past at the end of the episode... I'm looking forward to tonight, I like that there are lots of characters and storylines going on, makes it really fun to watch..
