An entire TV show about school bullying. Performances are ok, but there is very little to recommend here as it's been done a thousand times before.

What a great TV show. Not a single boring moment which is rare even in high rated shows. All episodes are great and interesting. It's about bullies, friendship, betrayal... You must be very heartless and boring person to not watch this show and don't like it.

You've reached the end.
