Just watched the pilot on Itunes and enjoyed it. It wasn't as horrible as I thought it would be. I love the movie so I wasn't expecting good things from the pilot. I was wrong.
Definitely on my list now.

The pilot was not that great, but the second episode was better. The actor who plays Patrick looks like a slightly less gay Michael Urie from Ugly Betty. Interestingly, the rich bitch is black and the school perv is Asian. In the past, both of those unsavory roles would always be white actors lest any minority group get offended. So I guess that's progress.

I'm enjoying this series so far. I really like the girl who plays Kat (she was on Neds Declassified). Even though it is based on the movie, I think this show has a lot of potential to stand on it's own. I really like the cast, except the guy who plays Verona. He creeps me out. Other than him, I think they did a great job casting it.

The third episode was pretty lame. It's like they found an unused of 8 Simple Rules For Dating My Daughter script and changed the names around. Bianca and Kat were irritating, but Cameron was like a hemorrhoid. Another stinker like this and I'm outie.

I liked episode 4, even though the entire conceit about the affair with the teacher was creepy at its core -- even creepier, the fact that he turned out to be a pedophile was played for laughs. This is on ABC Family Channel? The Kat story was more enjoyable. The whole thing about Cameron being her gay friend was hilarious.
Episode 5 had a good Bianca story, but the Kat story fell flat. It was totally pointless. Wow, she made the guys eat crow. What a blow for who cares. Still, this broke the string of good even numbered episodes followed by terrible odd numbered episodes.
Oh, and if they ever make an Archie Comic movie, they should cast Lindsey Shaw as Veronica Lodge. She's a dead ringer.

They should cast her to play Wendie Malick's daughter.

Another poor outing for the show, and another instance of creepy pedo stuff on a show that airs on the ostensible "Family" channel. As a bonus, the way they measured the hits on the website was wholly unrealistic. Which just shows that the writers were more interested in the creepy online aspect and it was not in any way a realistic portrayal of a serious subject. I'm inclined at this point to drop the show if the producers continuously display that this kind of subject matter is at all appropriate, regardless of the channel it airs on.
Oh yeah, and the writing and the two plots were hackneyed and recycled. There are times with the show that it feels like the writers are dumpster diving behind the Charles in Charge set.
