Featured review
An all time classic.
It's probably the pilot episode I've seen the most. Taped it, bought the DVD, and showed it to all my friends. I don't know what it is about it, but it's everything that makes the show so good, in one single episode. The actors, the intrigues, the music, the fashion, the acting even, it was a promise for a series that would become your new favorite guilty pleasure. And it did, still is, for a lot of us, which makes its reboot series even more pointless and weird. Just like Desperate Housewives, the show was on a roll on its first year. Basically all episodes had something special to offer. It was like a more « modest » Beverly Hills, 90210 (which was rebooted, thanks to its success, the following year), set in NYC. It was an upgrade from Smallville and OTH's small town drama and clearly more targeted to teenagers than DH was. Regardless, it was addictive, from the first second of viewing, and would not let go until the end credits start rolling.
