I'll Miss Rita Volk and Baily DeYoung...

I'm not the kind of demographic that Faking It really is after, a comfortable conservative and GOP voting individual. However I did enjoy Bailey Buntain, now DeYoung, in the series she was previously involved in over at ABCFamily (now Freeform), Bunheads. So when I learned that Bailey was going to be in an MTV show, much less playing the bad girl, I thought I'd watch. I wasn't disappointed and enjoyed watching her character Lauren as she transitioned from what could've just been a stereotypical bad girl to actually a good friend, if still bitchy...

I was introduced to Rita Volk, actually sought out her bio at Wikipedia which is something that I don't do often. Sought her out again at IMDB.com. I really enjoyed the annexes that she played Amy with. Ms. Volk is a very talented young individual and someone I look forward to keeping my eye on when I can...

I did think that the show was written unevenly. The first season, maybe the second, seemed to have a season long story line that each episode contributed to. However season three seemed more episodic, the kind of season that you could drop out of, miss a few episodes and drop back in again without really missing any details. That can hurt a show if viewers leave at the wrong time. I also thought that Hester High was just written more then funny, more than camp, but just poorly written. I mean I understand that Austin is a liberal dot in an otherwise conservative state, but there's funny, there's camp and then there's just bad. Writing Hester High like the writers did did some damage to the show in my opinion...
