great TV

this show was so great to watch! I still watch the reruns of amanda and bizzy going through the inevitable stages of life. although "ready or not" was mostly directed towards young girls, i think guys should watch because then they would get to know a girl's view on things since we have it soo much worse! anyway, when it comes on, don't flip through it like some annoying commercial.
