Sometimes this show is good, other times it'a bad. Most of the time bad.

The first set of series are just terrible. All it is is a rude, ignorant girl from Atlanta or wherever moving in with her supposedly famous dad. Brianna is just a rude girl who doesn't care about anyone else's feelings, but still gets lots of boyfriends? That, I don't understand.

But as the show's gone on, Brianna has gotten nicer. One thing that I hate about the show, is the racial comments they make. No, I'm not a white person who you might call "racist", I'm just a mixed-race girl (half black, half white). And sometimes Spirit says passing comments about Arnaz being half black, half white, and the whole audience burst out laughing. I really don't understand that ... Basically the shows giving the impression that it's OK to be like that, which I consider racist. But who, who watches the show, will agree with that? Most people believe it's OK for black people to make racial stereotypes and be racist anyway.

The second last series were good: When a nice, decent woman (Danielle) came and she was probably the only heartfelt person in the show. Everyone else seems like they only care about themselves.

In my opinion, only chavs (Americans won't know what that word means, but it isn't a compliment) will enjoy this show because it's a show about chavs. Although I don't like the racial comments Spirit makes, she does make girls who aren't like the pretty, popular girls like Brianna feel better because it makes them know that they're not alone.

I'd only watch this show if there was nothing else on TV to watch, then it is a good show. I wouldn't exactly cry if I knew that I'd missed it.

Oh, and the fact that Brianna lost her virginity to the guy who Ray J plays in the end, after Arnaz has been begging for her virginity for years was just stupid!

score 5/10
