this show is so freakin frustrating to watch as an adult cause sharon and her friends did the same stupid things i did as a middle schooler and i get bad memories back lollllll

I’m living for this exchange, I’ve been waiting for it...
She gives me tall girl vibes like”ha you think your life is bad I got BrAcEs”
You dont even know man I got made fun of alot for it in middleschool it kinda sucked
They actually thought my braces were cool
they never bullied me or made fun of me because of that
Back then it was different. Now, people are in LOVE with braces. People that don’t even need braces want them🙄. They shouldn’t, braces hurt.
@@Nominaze Definitely hurt
I couldn't eat properly for a few weeks
@@idkwhathandletomakelol Fr, I rmr my bracket came off 😭
“Your bangs kinda look like a headband”
Me: *always thinking that she just had straight hair with a light yellow headband*
Sameee
Now I can't unsee it
Literally could never see it as anything BUT a headband and if I try to force myself to focus on it actually being her hairstyle it feels wrong somehow
...is it not????
Should've made the series finale when it came time for her braces to be removed. Logical conclusion really.
They end the series with her eating a twix. She gets a cavity. Now she's Metal Moler.
And then she discovers that don't solve her problems, and her life is still difficult. All the time wasn't about the brackets!
@@annysk93 "ooohhh. My life is hard because I make bad decisions, not because I have braces. Lit!" Fucking dies*
At least the series ended with Sharon and Alden finally getting together and kissing and holding hands and watching the sunset
@@SailorMoonFriends Adam??? Her brother??
She's image conscious, anxious, and selfish?

I have this theory that somewhere in California in the 80s there was a high school where "popularity" and prom queens and shit like that actually mattered, the people who went there grew up and made movies and tv about high school, and in the early 2000s the rest of the country had to nod along and pretend to understand
As a person who is from California, I support this theory.
That is definitely a very good theory. Considering most of animations/movies come from California or people who went/grew up in California, there has to be some origin for this trope.
I believe its like this in rural areas.
lmao ur saying this as if california is the only state in which popularity in high school matters, when that’s like, everywhere
@@aquariusangel816 i don't think they ment California because of popularity in just high school it's just known for being one of the most popular states where lots of famous people live like Hollywood and Los Angels
"The Nega-chin!"

@@ToonrificTariq I'm over here thinkin' the people who wrote the theme song to this show just rolled dice on edibles and wrote what they saw, and here you are belting it out loud for us. *slow claps*
I am vibing to this in the train 😂🎵
The one episode that I think will stay with me forever is the one when she goes to Italy and meets this guy. She's all in love with him in Italy because he all foreign and "exotic", but when he comes to visit her in Canada she's embarrassed by him because he dresses and acts differently. Like this is so realistic. I've seen my friends do this and 90 Day Fiance is basically just that plus a green card...
That episode’s pretty good! I almost referenced it here, but you know. It’s already an hour long. 😭
Italians exotic? 🤨
Enni Bee To canadian kids? yes.
OMFG YESSS❤️❤️❤️
Those two are also the episodes i best remember!
I’m seeing a lot of hate in this comment section on the evaluation of Sharen. I get that Sharen is a teenager and makes mistakes most teenagers do. But just because she’s a kid that does not make her being egotistical and selfish ok. Every one around her grows except her. At the end of every episode where she makes a mistake she says “ OH I LEARN MY LESSON”. The next episode she does the same thing. She doesn’t grow. You are allowed to grow and makeup for your actions as a kid.
Perfect articulation of the point of the whole video. Thank you for this.
@@ToonrificTariq No problem keep doin what your doin
@@scott2k23 I feel like sharon has like every negative trait a teenage could posess she whines constantly about stuff, always thinks she's right when she's usually not, butts in to people's personal lives too much, cares way too much about what other people think which in my opinion even though I like her and Alden together ruins what could have been some nice relationship's with other guys, lets nina push her around too much and the few times she does stand up to nina she goes too far case and point Griffins Girl and kind of treats her mom her moms new boyfriend and her dad's new girlfriend kind of badly even though in my opinion their all great people I do like this show but it could be great if sharon was just more likeable and also I don't know if you have seen Lizzie Meguire or not but if you have would you say the main character is more likeable
@@kelsey1467 this is the longest sentence I’ve ever read
@@Jen-cj2br am I wrong in my observations about sharon
Am I the only one thinking of the "Sharon's racist grandfather" episode like an episode showing how ignorant boomers will basically never change, so there's no point in arguing with them and that it's better to make change by confronting your own prejudice or helping your friends instead?
I've definitely learned as an adult that some people will NEVER learn their lesson, or will certainly not change if you push them, so at some point all you can really do is say your piece and focus on things yourself and things you can actually change, just hoping they'll change some day.
But they didn't even try to change his mind.
Her grandfather probably grew up in the greatest generation so he is not a boomer. Her parents are most likely boomers.
@@angelsmusic2560 True her Mama found Donna Summers to be an icon
You have no idea what the word 'boomer' means, do you.
@@AlyxDps you have no idea how words change and their meaning gets altered with how people use them, do you? Obviously you knew what they meant with "boomer", so there's nothing to be gained by being pedantic
Something else I enjoy is, that Conor didn’t crush on, his 2 main friends.
Edit: thanks for all the like everyone this is my most like comment ever. I stand by this 🥲

The good ending 😢
You guys ever notice they gave minorities the most stereotypical haircuts in these type of shows.
He even mentions that in his “how to black” video
Yessss oh my god
No
Well, to be fair Maria's hairstyle was in vogue in that period, but is still rather curious than the half assian girl gets twinbuns with a dyed hair strand. But still, it was kind of a thing on that period😊
I wouldn’t call Sharon a bad person. She has good intentions, but she’s a self centered teenage girl, and she grows from that over the series. She has high expectations, both for others, and herself, and that can lead to her either making bad choices. She’s still figuring out who she is, and what teenager doesn’t have a selfish phase like that?
Yea she seemed like the typical teen for that era. I was pretty selfish and cared what everybody thought about while groing up too.
yeah, they wanted Sharon to be the main character people could relate to but at the same time making her make all of these mistakes so they could teach its young audience a lesson, which can sometimes backfire
L
As Alucard once said "Don't mistake youthful selfishness for genuine malice. No one isn't kind of an asshole in their early twenties, and if they weren't, they were probably sociopaths."
Exactly, claiming someone is a "bad person" just because they make a lot of silly mistakes, can be self-centered, etc is an overstatement. A bad person is someone who has bad intentions, treats everyone like shit, steals, abuses and murders.
People who make these overstatements as if they're holier than thou, as if humans have to always be a certain way all of the time and share the same values is why cancel culture exists and that shit in itself is toxic.
“Y’all don’t actually watch the video after hours of editing 🖕🏽”

Is your username from the movie Mean Girls?
I'm pretty sure the voice change was because Alicia Silverstone was to busy to voice Sharon after the first season.
I actually hated Sharon when I was a kid, and I was the same age as her when I watched the show. Even when it came to the animal rights stuff, it was still usually the result of her being selfish. For example, the episode where the fashion company stops using fur. She was almost willing to sabotage her best friend's possible future career because she didn't want her wearing and promoting fur. In the end, it was actually _Maria_ who convinced the company to change, not Sharon. Sharon was just annoying.
Blame Alicia "Its bad Russian Prisoners Don't have vegetarian meals" Silverstone, I love her but clearly she can be a Becky
I mean it stopped slaughtering cats
i DEPISED that episode when i was a kid. especially since maria was one of my favorite characters
Ok so did everyone forget how stupid we all were at 13? This all seems like normal teenage behavior.
i think when we are teens we remember finally getting that understanding so we tend to forget what we did during our pre teen and early teen years. in a way, we really all were self centered I think. I remember being a smart teen but if I go back, there were a LOT of dumb things I said (luckily i grew up with online chats and diaries to look at). Even as a "smart kid" I have a diary entry calling a gay book character "gross." And then a lot of bad grammar. SO long story short, we really DO think we are on top of the world at that age and forget how dumb we were (i know i did). It is only until I see these kinds of shows that I remember how horrible we all were
13? try 23 mate lol
Nahh, g. You grew up different. We wasn’t giving it up like this when I was 13.
some of yall forget this show was about the 90s and early 00s. Shit really was more dramatic back then. In many ways, it is more dramatic now. I could write a whole essay about it tbh
I’m sorry is it just me who’s never had a “naked class dream”
I thought Braceface was a fever dream. This just unlocked the memories deep in the vault of my brain
Fucking same, bro
Me too and I just briefly saw this show
Same for me but with Jetix

I watched this as a kid, but I’m shocked I actually sat down for an hour to listen to this
I didnt even notice it was an hour.
same, this is a really well put together video so why not lol
The episode where Sharon gets her period will always stick with me - I don't think they aired it in America, but I streamed it online as an adult and thought it was a great episode for girls Sharon's age to learn about their bodies!
I remember seeing it on TV once, so it aired in America.
@@BassGal92 Big Mouth is amazing too!
Same, I watched this show at just the right age for it to hit right when I needed it. This, as told by ginger, the weekenders and Hey Arnold were all really helpful to me growing up in an unsupportive household
I was SUCH a big fan of Braceface! Born in 94, so I was a bit younger than her character. For quite a while I'd have flashbacks of that episode about her period anytime I'd have cramps LOL.
Canadian media was much more progressive at the time in terms of "polarizing" content. The character Snake from Degrassi was the first to swear on TV in Canada in the 80's, which didn't happen in the U.S until after that. Some other serious episodes I believe it didn't air in the US for quite some time, too, due to their topics (i.e abortion & teen pregnancy).
It’s a shame everyone thinks _Turning Red_ was the first, when it’s barely even about that.
Idk why but I find this video so comforting. I’ve watched it like a zillion times
same here. It's kind of a go-to for me to feel at home.
I thought Marie was cool this way because she wasn't the racist stereotype of a demure obedient math nerd. Her getting up to trouble was kind of revolutionary and cool.

One of the few teenager shows with fairly realistic awful personalities. Just like normal teens.
I think it is a mixture. I can imagine why this show was started since i just realized alicia silverstone produced it. We are so used to the smart, down to earth girl being the protagonist that we forget about the 90s and early 2000s in which the dumb, chaotic, and very selfish girl was the protagonist. I like both having a protagonist that always makes mistakes and also one who makes none. I think th e former is fitted for kids shows while the latter is fitted for more older teenage or young adult shows, since "teenagers" aka preteens and early teens are the ones making all the dumb mistakes and having the WORST personalities ad being a terrible person to everyone. and later teens / young adults are often made to look dumb when they tebd to have their shit together. The word "teen" gets thrown around, thus, because everyone peaks at a different time. Some never do lol

Remember when she tried to pair up her gay friend with her other gay friend just because they’re both gay and the only two gay people she knows? Couldn’t do that in a show back then, rare.

I mean it was show based on teenage problems like anxiety, depression, self conscious, self image and lonerism all things that teens go thru in their life we've all went thru those phases in our teens it's what makes us human, and showing teenagers how to overcome it with friends, self confidence and family.
That was beautiful. Thank you to both of you for the effort and earnesty you put into this.

I forgot your channel name and you have been lost to me after all these years... Hello
Oh hi Phantom
I love seeing creators I love overlap.
As a white girl who had roof access from her window. Yep, I totally climbed onto my roof to get away from my family when I'm stressed.
Lucky
I do, but the roof is really steep amd I wouldn't be able to climb back
Id jump off of it if i had one
Dude, I have a fear of heights, I would do that but I can’t.
All I had was a second-story door that opened into nothingness. Gave me vertigo and a deep-seated fear I'd sleepwalk through it and fall to my death.
My orthodontists office was exactly like that. It was a room where 3 kids got worked on at a time by assistants and the orthodontist would wash his hands and change his gloves for every kid
So it’s been 2 years. A lot has happened in my life since this video was originally uploaded. My relationships have changed, friends have come and gone, my gender identity changed. I’ve watched this video at least 20 times. The editing and energy of it makes it feel like a conversation I just happen to be apart of. I love this video. Thank you Tariq and Kiki. This gives me so much comfort every time I happen to give it another view.
Hearing Americans talk about how 'groundbreaking' Canadian kids shows were definitely highlights some of the differences in what our two countries consider normal.
Fr
Bruh Canadian series really hit different. And the sad thing is that a lot of people still don’t know that most shows they watched outside of Disney are Canadian 💀
@@itsmixiecle including porn
@@pancakecosmos6080
My tentacle hentai is Canadian?!
well yall give yourselves too much credit as well because it wasnt just "canadian" shows -- a lot of american shows tackles these issues as well. they just DONT anymore because of karens. there were a lot of shows that were "groundbreaking" (as in, they werent groundbreaking at all because it was normal) in a LOT of american tv back in the 90s and 00s. It is just that channels became streamlined to a certain audience. You have cartoons being catered to the "random" ness of the early 2010s, (a lot was inspired by youtube and internet culture) which eventually gave rise to pointless plotlines and just garbage cartoon styles. Disney, which is mainyl popular for its live action shows, DID tackle a lot of these issues in the 90s and 00s. It's just that since disney is so goodie two shoes, it started becoming the popular channel for the karens to let hteir kids watch. so the second they have two SIDE CHARACTERS as gay parents, the internet goes absolutely BALLISTIC. So not only do you have cookie cutter recycled disney shows, but you have the completely random nickelodeon shows, both sitcoms and cartoons, having little plot.
Sharon the kind of girl who probably ended up going to college and living a very normal life.

@@ghostchick5275 That's because Sabrina: The Animated Series came out two years before Braceface and both shows are made by different companies
I really liked this show growing up. They talked about some real shit that teens worry about like fitting in, relationships, periods, racism, the problem with trying to look "too grown" too fast, hell they even had an openly gay character. Man, these early 2000 Canadian cartoons were the best! I love how flawed Sharon is and how she doesn't know who she is. She's 14 years old going through puberty trying to figure out who she is and I love it! I really liked the drama between her and Alden and how they went through an emotional rollercoaster. This show will forever hold a special place in my heart. ❤
I hope he does "my life as a teenage robot" too. that was one of my favourite cartoons to watch when I was younger, and even now watching it back as an adult still is atleast for me great to re-watch
Oh I hope so too, that shows actually just holds up, and the retro future aesthetic is freaking dope.
Ultimate legend would love to see a video about this show!
Same. Jenny is my fave of the teen cartoon girl protagonists of the era. More flawed than Kim Possible. Less immoral than Sharon Spitz. Plus the aestetic gives me PPG vibes and Jenny being a robot only adds to the show's charm.
please do this oh my god it' was the best
I completely forgot about the cartoon until 2006. Then, it got canceled then i forgot it for 5 more years. Then in 2016, 10 years later, I remembered that it was a thing. Teenage girls
I feel like Sharon was a normal girl that was dramatized at times because it’s a cartoon. Tv shows at this point were all about extreme high school girls who create their own conflict lol. At 13/14 you’re learning a whole different level of socialization. As a child you’re essentially told being good means good things will happen; however, you get older and realize that’s just not life - which is the cycle they clearly kept Sharon in.

"that clip was loud, shouldn't you level your audio?" "we don't do that here" bruh why was that so funny
The transition from the Tubi shoutout to Skillshare was like getting punched in the stomach twice, one after the other, and somehow being surprised both times.
I do gotta say that episode where she got a huge complex being a 9th grader dating a 8th grader was highly relatable. Everyone in my highschool saw dating someone even 1 grade lower as sketchy and dating a child and the whole episode really broke that thought-process down in a way
I just watched this not too long ago and I have a question that is nagging me...Whatever happened to her little brother josh? He just stopped showing up in the later episodes of S3. In one of the episodes they even show the mom looking sadly at a picture of him...Did he...???

As a canadian that had braces in the 2000s, my orthodontist’s office was a room of chairs facing away from eachother and the orthodontist went from person to person (while the hygienists did most of the work)
Better than my orthodontist. I just found out that he was secretly recording underage girls...
My orthodontist office was the same . There were 6 chairs basically right next to each other . I think it’s because they usually can just tighten them fast
Lmao and we all thought it was some weird "eh it doesn't make sense but it helps the show and it's just a cartoon no one will care"

As my teeth straightened and I got a couple more diagnoses about other body parts, I realized I’m never gonna be “normal” so I shouldn’t let genetics define how I let others treat me.

i really appreciate the time you spent on the intro breakdown. the energy in the intros back in these times of Saturday morning cartoons is so slept on
You know on the one hand, the "antagonist" girl in these kinds of shows/stories/movies/etc having no real solid reason to hate the protagonist is kind of annoying. But on the other hand, if they're 14-16 and they're really taking a look at living as a teenager... fuck man, you don't need a *reason* to mock and insult someone at that age. You can make up a reason as an excuse, that's just shitty teens being shitty teens. I was ostracized and mocked because when I was 12 I liked to read books. I was a nerd because I read freaking books. You don't need to be a certain ethnicity, or a minority, or a religion, shitty kids will *find* a reason to mock you.
fr this entire show is accurate
That’s why it’s so important for parents to instill security in children at a young age.. teens are gonna be teens but NOBODY was a teenager forever, and everybody is a bit of a mess at that age
Well said
well i was bullied because i was short, but it ended when they realzed i practiced boxing for few years xD
I don't even know the reason why I was bullied. they mocked me, hitted me, I cried and they mocked me because I cried. that's the story of my life. they keep calling me crybaby nowadays
Anybody remember The Weekenders? One of the few cartoon shows where they actually change the characters' clothes.
Brooooooo i forgot about that show
It has great porn
I remember seeing commercials for it when I watched Fillmore but I never actually caught it while it was airing.
Funniest cartoon ever
this is still one of my favorite videos on this entire platform. this is absolutely top tier. i love your editing style, i love how much care you put into your videos, i love your sense of humor and music taste, and i love how well articulated you and your guests always are in your descriptions. ive watched a lot of your videos but got damn this one still hits in SUCH a good way. 100/10 love this video so damn much
My favorite video on TH-cam i never really watched the show but the background music and analysis of the show as a whole with its different characters weirdly felt nostalgic and made my day. Thank you
I never understood why all the teen girls in these 2000s cartoons would be wearing belly/midriff shirts to school. Like no girl would wear that when lame school dress codes wouldn’t even let you get away with wearing a tank top. Remember the fingertips test?
Depends where
helperbot 2000 tell me one actual high school where it’s not “inappropriate” and a “distraction to boys trying to learn”
Idk what kind of school you went to lol..
Really? I assumed most schools had a dress code even if it wasn’t a uniform. No tank tops with the straps less than three finger widths, skirts can’t be shorter than the fingertips, no midriffs showing. Nothing in appropriate displayed on clothes. For guys they couldn’t have saggy pants that showed their underwear. There are some schools that even have rules on hair and jewelry. I’ve never heard of a school without a single dress code in any country before. That’s surprising.
@@nefarious_seraph13 Never heard of a dresscode in Germany before. Nobody cares. Sometimes the teachers will complain if like everyone wears joggers but it isn't taken serious.
The only way I remember Braceface was that Alicia Sliverstone (Cher from Clueless) was the voice of Sharon for Seasons 1-2. I had the DVDs from FUNimation.
knew her voice in the first seasons sounded familiar
Sharon reminds me of cher
@@rediamond7818 They (tween celebrity magazines) tried to make a big deal about it right before Braceface started airing saying that Braceface was supposed to be a cartoon loosely based off Alicia Silverstone's life as a pre-teen. I'm not entirely sure why they claimed that, because it's pretty obvious Braceface was not that. But I remember CosmoGirl Magazine claiming the same thing about As Told By Ginger being a cartoon based off of Ginger Spice's (Geri Halliwell) childhood. For no other reason other than they're both redheads, and Ginger Foutley shared the same name as Geri's stage name.
And the fact that in both Braceface and Clueless she had a friend named Dion 😂😂
This video means a lot to me as someone who watched this show a lot growing up. Congrats on your success with your channel.
Tariq, i just found you, and I love the way you jump from cartoon to cartoon, literally all of which I’ve seen, even ones after my time. I’m going to as told by ginger next and I can’t wait. You rock, don’t ever change
I can't believe I'm saying this but braceface is better than 13 reasons why
Better plot than riverdale
Yep I would rather watch braceface than watch 13 reasons why.
@@abbyfrancis9062 I could never get into Riverdale because it wasnt the archie comics i read.
Honestly you can do a whole lot worse than Braceface
13 reasons why glorified and actually caused a bunch of suicides and riverdale is really messed up in a bad way
@@ImmaLittlePip riverdale isnt meant to be taken as a aserious teen show tho. its the CW. all their shows are based off of comics. 13 rw tho,... yikes. it was like they were trying to make a statement. it also became a dramam by the 2nd season tho. neither of them are meant to be "teen" shows, I dont think. Regardless, the "plot" is bad for a drama, for both
"Shouldn't you level your audio?"
"We don't do that here."
Immediately subbed.
This video was so well put together and I appreciate all the hard work you put into it
This is my comfort TH-cam video. In the year or so it’s been up, I’ve watched it like ten times at least
Same, his videos make me feel so at home
How her braces doesn’t pick up radio signals is beyond me.
“She’s sitting on a roof is this some kinda of white girl thing?”
I’m a white girl and I can say that sitting on roofs is my favorite pass time. Rain snow, heat the roof is the place to be. I even throw parties on top of the roof but for some reason none of my friends want to come so party of one! Sure I fell off three times but hospitalization and a few broken bones won’t stop me now!
I definitely understand. It's really pretty and for me I love being on roof at night or when is snowing. It's my favorite things to do, it always help me to relax.
Being on the roof is the bestttt!
Yup, same!
I got a fear of heights. Ain't no way you putting me up there and NOT have the fear of falling thru the ceiling.
Christian Rosales but broken bones r so fun
Your jokes are killing me. Had me dying in the first ten minutes. Ya'll should def do the As Told By Ginger video.
He made it a while ago
The editing is amazing, im glad it was made. This video is awesome
Of course you were going to start with the Lisa Needs Braces/Dental plan Simpsons scene
Bullseye!
I always found comfort in Sharon being kind of a bad character who messed up. She was 13 and I was 13. She was like the poster child for “things not to do” even if the intention is good.
I have some really specific childhood memories involving this show and the Sabrina the Teenage Witch cartoon. The lady who did security for our apartment complex's gate would let us just sit in the booth thing and watch TV with her while we waited for our bus. 😭 Good times.
W security woman. I hope she’s doing well now. 💜
just discovered your channel today... please dont stop. i love this content
You literally need to teach a college course about cartoons. I'd literally take your class.
That is actually a great idea
As opposed to figuratively taking his class?
I literally find that you literally use too much "literally".
ya'll are jerks XD
Literally??
The thing I hate about this show
is that I haven't watched it yet.
I'll be back
We shall watch your career with great interest
How did u never watch this show as a kid lol
@@jillmont3342, not everyone has cable TV
Did you enjoy it?
I appreciate this video SO MUCH. You guys did such an amazing job on it, thank you❤️
Fun fact: There is also an episode where she dates Connor. She finds Connor gross because he has intense allergies which make him sound sick a lot, give him red eyes, I guess somehow give him bad skin and non-shiny teeth too? He voices interest in this new girl named I think it was 'Tally' and wishing he could be good enough looking to attract her. Sharon finds out about acupuncture that can get rid of his allergies and insists he goes and so he does. When she sees him she gets star-struck by how beautiful he is when he takes his glasses off. Meanwhile he dates the new girl. He explains how happy and self-confident he suddenly feels about himself and she gets sad because she doesn't get to date him. She starts heavily flirting. Her other friend reveals Conner has liked her for years probably. She even starts arguing with his new girlfriend, Tally. So he gets confused about the tension and offers to breakup with Tally since he has been friends with Sharon for years. Connor then asks her out to the movies explaining lowkey that he's liked her all his life pretty much and that not even his mom is as amazing to him as she is. She thinks "I finally got what I wanted-" later while on the date thinking "without tally around conner wasn't so cool, even if he was better looking-" then they just non-verbally agreed to stay friends.
Connor was awesome, but sharon really was very shitty in that episode
43:05 Damn, son, you didn't have to do me like that. ;-;
I love listening to your analyses while working, especially when I get to revisit shows I only watched a handful of times. Can't wait to see what else you have in store, Tariq!
TOP 1 ANIME CROSSOVERS: THIS
Eww a sonic geek
Eww sonic nerd
@@jupeymupey4963 😂
Hey charriii5
In Italian, this series was called "Sorriso d'argento" wich it can be translated as "Silver Smile".
Davvero? Che bello!
In brazil “sorriso metálico” which is basically the same thing
Oh! In Polish it was "Aparatka", which is a great idea here, cause "aparat" means "braces", but it can also be used to describe a person, kind of a rogue, a menace. The sufix "-ka" makes it feminine (gramatically speaking), while it's also a slang term for a girl wearing braces.
That’s kind of cute
"Silver Smile" seems like the title of one of the old Orlando poems/songs.
Bro I just got braces and TH-cam recommends me this 😭😭
I seriously needed this video. I have watched this show for about a million times because it really relaxes me and it helps relieve my stress and this gave me the closure I needed. U did some really good work with this one guyss. Thank u💞
I have to say I feel like sharon's taste in men can be awful sometimes what do you think
Yes, I think I know what u mean.. However, being a teenager puts you through an awful lot of different opinions on relationships and I can totally recall being 13 and having huge crushes on ppl that I may not even wave if I see them at the street right now.. Soo, that's why I can excuse her for a lot of her choices and for her taste as well. Nevertheless, for the most part I kinda liked Alden to be honest.. (*all guilty*)
