I am a huge fan of early 2000s show Gilmore Girls, Dawson's Creek, Malcom In The Middle , you name it. I got HBO Max recently and started watching this because it fits what I like too watch: small town, friendships and high school. It is so good in it's own way. A lot of people compare it to Dawson's Creek and I think they are both good in their own way. I find the relationships in OTH to be more realistic than DC and thats what I needed to watch. Currently on season 1 and will continue!
