I gave the show a chance without jumping to conclusions and it is nothing spectacular. the first episode had me intrigued and i can't lie it was pretty good so i decided to watch the second episode and it was eh. the decision to make the teachers gossip girl is just so so weird. there is no character in the main cast that i actually like. the plot is boring. And in reality this show can never live up to the standards set by the original gossip girl. I tried to watch the third episode but gave up less than half way in. i'm giving it two stars because it's not terrible and is an okay show but i can only hope that the plot becomes more interesting. definitely give the show a go as you never know - you may enjoy it !
