Pretty Good, Don't Be One of those Fake Edgy Hipster


THis show was good by American standards.

Most shows in America are not funny or entertaining or edgy. This was.

This show had an edge, and this is coming from the UK Inbetweeners fan.

I think many people try to be edgy and cool by claiming this is not good and using the original as the basis. This is very good though, excellent in many ways.

The hate is unjustified. Their is great chemistry and facial reactions from Carly and Simon especially. Jono who is a "helping hand," to Neil's dad was a funny cog in the story and original.

I loved when he said sometimes it sticks.....then after a brief moment of how cool he is, Jay says, "I wish he'd stick it in me." Very nice, deserved better.

I found the Carly Simon relationship pretty funny and the Will Samantha moments equally as entertaining. The actors who played the four main stars were not as good as their UK counterparts, but Simon came damn close. His facial reactions to saying the wrong things unintentionally was damn hilarious.

This is a solid 8, yes some jokes were lifted, but were still hilarious. Must see, I highly recommend.

MTV best show ever made got hate by people who simply wanted to.

Agreed. While def not as good as the original british version I still laughed alot watching this remake. I also liked how it wasnt just a word for word remake of the UK version

I hated how they changed Mr Gilbert's character though ;/
