Awkward. review – 3×12: ‘And Then What Happened?’

October 30, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

After setting up all of the dominoes last week (and subsequently knocking them all down in one move at a surprise 17th birthday party), Awkward. dances around the fall-out for an inspired, if not particularly funny, rift on the telephone game.

Awkward. review – 3×11: ‘Surprise!’

It’s been a few months since we last saw Jenna (Ashley Rickards) and the rest of the Awkward. crew. When last we left off our flawed female protagonist had spent the first half of the third season working up to cheat on her boyfriend with a bland, generic Abercrombie model. Clearly I’m still not ready to accept this development…

Awkward. review – 3×08: ‘Rubbed Raw And Reeling’

Here’s an excerpt from my notes for this episode: “Emotional trap.” “Emasculation.” “Bad Mama Jamma.” “Dazzle the crowd.” “OH MY GOD NO.”

Can you guess what the profane tirade concerns?

Jenna (Ashley Rickards) has another identity crisis as Halloween brings out the sluts and the haters. So what’s with the mixed messages?

Awkward. review – 3×04: ‘Let’s Talk About Sex’

It’s meet the parents fun-time as Jenna (Ashley Rickards) and Matty’s (Beau Mirchoff) parents meet each other over less than ideal circumstances. So just how awkward will this be?

Awkward. review – 3×03: ‘A Little Less Conversation’

April 24, 2013 by Joe Lipsett

Awkward. continues its season three creative resurgence by returning back to basics: exploring the delicate politics of relationships. The key difference here is that nearly every character is given something to do (even Jessica Lu’s Ming!)
