This show speaks to the stresses that are put on them by their parents, their teachers, each other, and themselves. There was a lot of emotional/psychological bullying in this one, which was hard for me to understand, because I wouldn't have put up with it. I was sorry there weren't consequences for the bullies.

There is a bit of a romance here, but mostly this is about friendship, and it tells the story well. It's about believing in your friends when they don't even believe in themselves. About how you can trash talk your friends, but nobody else had better try it. At the beginning, I was worried, because the acting seemed pretty stiff, but that eventually worked its way out.
