Faking It

Everything you need to know to decide whether to watch this awesome show!

Watch if you: 1. Like funny shows! 2. Are in high school 3. Confused about your sexuality 4. Love your best friend

Do not watch if: 1. You are not tolerant of the LGBT community

Yes, I cannot think of any other reason not to watch this amazing show! I love the main characters. They all have great development and the story line is good. You'll find yourself rooting for almost all of them while laughing out loud at the same time. I watched the entire first season in a matter of few hours and find myself eagerly waiting for the second season. This show sneaked up on me and took me by surprise.

You definitely have to watch more than one episode. I like how the teenages actually swear, how they make fun of highschool television and how out there they went with it. Even made references to Glee haha. I think anyone who is a TV Buff should definitely just try it. The acting is fairly good too. I liked it cause it made something so unoriginal (highschool TV) original in the way it was made. Yeah it has stereotypes eg. beautiful girls unpopular, uncool kids cool and what not but thats the whole point of it. Using the typical aspects and doing something different with them eg. lesbian theme, irony and swearing.

Up until recently I was not aware of this show. While I was browsing amazon prime for something to watch, I stumbled onto this show, and I fell in love. Amy and Karma are great characters, characters that you can't help but to root for. And the battle between Shane and Lauren is both funny and charming. The story line is fresh and finally set in a more modern way of thinking. I believe for the most part that this is how high school is now. It was like this even when I left high school 4 years ago. There is absolutely nothing that I don't love about this show. I have watched the first season twice already and I probably watch even more in the time spent waiting for season 2.

In my opinion this show (on MTV) is primarily meant for teens. Now i have read some user reviews that find it stupid, offensive, too stereotypic etc etc. . .

Well OK i'm not a teen anymore - in fact it's been some thirty years since i was a teen - but i know that gay/lesbian teens are still as uncertain and uncomfortable with their feelings and emotions as WE were some thirty years ago. Now back in those days we didn't have shows like FAKING IT where we could see that it is in fact OK to be gay/lesbian; that it is just another sexual orientation and that there's nothing wrong with being attracted to the same sex!

So the way i see it, it is very good having this show (although some find it lame or stereotypic or whatever . . !) and i hope it reaches and helps gay/lesbian teens in the difficult process of self-acceptance and dealing with their sexual orientation!

Seriously this show is so entertaining! I saw a random fan trailer on youtube and thought I would check it out. I was surprised just how funny this show is.

The gay guy in it just makes it! All the one liners leave me in stitches every time.

I'm long past being a teenager, but this is still very funny!

I wish I went to a school that accepted everyone for being different and actually made those differences cool!

Check it out! Better yet, watch the whole season in one sitting!

p.s all the other characters (including the parents) just add to the awesome nature of this show!
