Don't ask why, it was just on. It's hard to express how it made me feel, I just shake my head in disappointment.
It has the sound/music of a Disney or Nickelodeon show. (I swear I recognized a tune)
It's shot like some third rate 90s shows. The close shots with crappy detective music. You can tell it's trying to be slick and cool but at best it comes off as bland and uninteresting.
The acting, is uninspired. There is no sign of talent so far, which explains why Hillary Duff seems to be a primary character right now. Most mediocre acting since You Got Served.
As for the script, it's hip, smart, and super cool. In reality the plot, writing, premise, lines, whatever suck suck suck. How on earth does anyone care about this show? They could at least make it mildly relate able. No it's about a bunch of s*** no one on Earth would care about. If you're going to write a show for us to live vicariously through, make it... you know interesting. The show is so disjointed. It just cuts to shot to shot to shot about stuff they pretty much already talked about the first 5 minutes in. It would be fine if, once again, the dialogue and setting was in any way engaging. I actually caught the first episode of this show when it aired. EVERY Character is exactly the same, the point of the show is exactly the same. There seems to have been no growth or progression, just the same dribble. It's like watching CSI except by comparison CSI is extremely riveting TV.
There isn't much more I can express with words. I just wonder how anyone at the CW would consider THIS their flagship show.
HOW?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!

EDIT: I can't believe I forgot the narrator (Gossip Girl) who is randomly inserted with completely pointless lines. They reveal nothing in any way, she even tends to repeat something they just showed us in about 4 scenes. I've seen shitty B movies that with better lines.
