Didn't like it at all!

I felt after watching this show that it was like a bad episode of Models Inc. The cast of characters was just too pretty for me and inexperienced as well in their roles. I felt the show would have more promise if they were more like the Degrassi series. Unfortunately, this show is quite popular more for it's sex appeal of the leading characters. I couldn't believe it was set in an academic atmosphere. It was far too silly for me. MAybe I'm just old fashioned, but I like my soaps to have some mature characters. Coronation Street became famous for featuring actresses and actors like Violet Carson, DOris Speed, Jean Alexander, Arthur Leslie, Jack Howarth, etc. Hollyoaks works because it appeals to a younger audience who may not care about adult matters. Nevertheless, I didn't care for this show and found it to become a sign of the British soaps. Far too attention is paid to attractive, inexperienced actors and actresses. I wanted to like this show but it just got silly. It was like watching the British Real World.
