Coming out of lurkdom to say that My So-Called Life is one of my all time favourite TV shows. My daughter, who was about Angela's age when the show was airing, and I recently watched the entire series over again. I don't think there has ever been another show that portrays the roller coaster teenage years as well. But beyond that, the humanity of all the characters is astounding. There isn't a caricature or throw-away in the entire cast.
When I first saw the last episode (which they wrote after they realized the show was being cancelled) I felt disappointed that there was no ending. But after watching it several more times, I came to accept it as a near perfect ending. (In my future scenario Angela eventually grows beyond Jordan but never gets together with Brian. Sad, but that's life.) Ranger Rick on 3/23/02 4:56 PM, mack watson-bush at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > kate, that show was also one of my favorites.
