What I'm Watching
The Secret Life of an American Teenager
I love this show for so many reasons.
Created by Brenda Hampton (7th Heaven) it covers Amy, a 15 year old high school student that gets prego mid school year by Ricky, an ass of a boy with a disturbing past. She then finds love and attempts to find resolution with current boyfriend Ben (son of the “Sausage King”) LMAO at that. The plot includes everything from a fake ID ring to absent parents trying to sell unborn babies. The cast personifies top flight fuckery and I love it. You have everything from philandering fathers to a kid reminiscent of Corky (Life Goes On) It really sheds a much needed light on family structure and teenage pregnancy in America. This show captured my eye because not only does it cover every day trials it exemplifies the fact that teenage pregnancy is not limited to African American and Hispanic youth. Although this series is based on a 15 year old prego teenager the writers have done an excellent job at incorporating a number of true to life situations into each episode without losing their significance. In doing this a true classic has been born, everyone from tweens to grandma can get something out of The Secret Life of an American Teenager.
There are also few familiar faces in this series; Camille Winbush (The Bernie Mac Show), Jordan Lewis (Just Jordan), Molly Ringwald (Sixteen Candles) and Steve Schirripa (The Sopranos). I watch this show with Lil’ Wendy and we love it. This is definitely a must see in my book. You can catch it on Mondays at 8pm on the ABC Family Channel.
