So this is the next purchase on my list, it's totally cheap over here! I've heard only good things about it but two things keep coming up: - It's the 'first' teen drama - Out of them all, this is the show that offers the most true representation of high school life Do the already established fans agree? I'm certainly looking forward to watching it, especially now I've seen Bess Armstrong is in it  |

I agree completely it is worth a buy and I do feel it was the first and paved the way. It still has a lot of meaning today so definitely is worth a buy.
You are so lucky Peyton I am still waiting for it to go on sale lol.

lol, on both the sites I use frequently for music/dvds etc it's £6.99 over here. Bargain!
I don't think I can get Freaks and Geeks over here though, unless I can get it on a US import which means I'll have to unlock my dvd player.
But I will be ordering My So-Called Life this week once I've paid my wages in! I'm excited!

I think it is an extremely realistic representation of high school and what teenagers go through. The episodes deal with real issues and there aren't crazy over dramatic plot points. The show has a lot of heart

Well, 90210 was the first popular teen drama, but MSCL was/is the most realistic /best.
The characters are people you knew in high school... in fact, you'll probably see a little bit of yourself in each and every character. They're so easy to relate to, and I have actually said or thought things Angela and Brian have said basically verbatim lol.
PLEASE keep me updated as you watch! I have four episodes left (there are nineteen ) and I don't want it to end!
I can guarantee you will fall in love with this show instantly
