After sitting through some of the darkest episodes of the series, it’s comforting to see Awkward. take a more light hearted approach. Not that ‘The Campaign Fail’ isn’t still packed with significant moments.

Jenna (Ashley Rickards) continues to spiral out of control as she tries to take her relationship with cardboard cut-out Collin (Nolan Funk) public. Unfortunately nobody – including this reviewer – is having it.
