I watched the whole thing in one go on a lazy Saturday afternoon and think that's what this drama is ideal for.
Honestly it would have made a better movie. The short run-time definitely impacts the story overall. There are hints of 3 dimensional characters, but in the end they just aren't explored enough for you to fully connect with them. There's also hints of lessons learned (as you'd expect with any body swap drama), but it's never quite stated in a satisfactory way.
All this said, the acting was decent, but not outstanding (though seeing a 28-year-old play a high school senior is a bit distracting); the story was interesting enough to keep me hooked; and the music whilst generic was also fine.
Overall: I do recommend this if you enjoy light and fun dramas, just treat like a chick-flick movie (like Princess Diaries or She's the Man) and don't expect too much.
