CGiii Comment

Opening music and credits: horrible.

The rest...hideous.

The performances are weak...especially from Willett (the lead)...a performance as lacklustre as matt paint - here endeth a career!

But, the real flop of the show...is the writing...Northy's debut, a script that should have seen the inside of a trash-can rather than the light of the day.

A question Stein should have asked himself: who are my intended audience? Because, this is completely lost. Too dumb for the typical teen, too immature for the more mature.

A flimsy, flaccid flop.

The(ir) Blurb...

When unassuming Tanner is outted, he finds himself cast as the hottest new teen-girl accessory: The Gay Best Friend. The clique queens immediately pounce and makeover Tanner into their ideal arm candy, forcing him to choose between popularity and the true friends - including his own B.F.F. Brent - that he's leaving behind.
