5.0 out of 5 stars My So Called Life April 23, 2012
By Amethyst Sunshine Daisies
Not sure exactly what I was expecting when I started watching this series, but it definitely exceeded everything I thought. Poignant & slightly dark, it captures the emotions of a 90's teenager to a tee. The things that happened then are the same things that happen now, and with a stellar soundtrack it definitely gives the show some justice.

This was such a great show - used to watch it in college. The Christmas episode is a favorite of mine, with a great twist. The series is real, gritty, funny, heartbreaking.
