Sorry to burst your collective bubbles, but I think the show is a pile of
poo. Granted I've seen only one episode, but it fulfilled all of my fears
& none of my hopes. It was a total "thirtysomething" clone (same
producers) uneasily placed onto adolescence. The episode was about a
friend of Angela's who OD'd on drugs. Angela's "good" suburban mom saves
the day when the other "bad" working class mom is negligent. Oh please, do
we need more of this self-congratulatory white middle-class bullshit? Let
it fester in the low ratings cesspool.
 
Harsh but true.
