The bad:
Katie is a pregnant teenager. If we're going to talk about abortion in the same old hollywood cliche way, could it at least be with an adult character? The way this is handled kind of makes me sick. On that line, the morher daughter dynamic between the two characters is frustrating. Lack of character dimension in the morher character, Sarah, leaves a lot to be desired. The way they portray her leaves a religious taste in my mouth. Could be fine if it didn't make for such a phony one-sided character. Sarah's life is getting upended, she should be feeling something or dealing with it in a way that's realistic and dynamic.
The show comes off as fluffy from all the cons.
The script is pretty terrible. The directing isn't that great. A few of the actors should have been cast better (though the good ones are actually pretty good).
What keeps me watching this show is the community aspect. I like the idea of the show. I like how is follows journies on multiple characters. Sticking with it on an episode by episode basis. I'd be surprised if this gets a second season. We'll see how it goes.
