Dino Whitman (Sean Faris), Ben Connor (Jon Foster) and Jonathan Fields (Chris Lowell) are sex-obsessed virgin best friends sophomore high schoolers in Seattle. Dino is a cocky hockey player in love with Jackie Bradford (Missy Peregrym) who is more reluctant about sex. Her father is a drunk. Sue Miller (Jessica Lucas) is her best friend. Awkward Jonathan is friends with Deborah Tynan (Kelly Osbourne). He wants sex but she needs more. Ben has a secret fling with teacher Monica Young (Marguerite Moreau). Dino sees his mother Annie (Lisa Darr) cheating with Coach Scott. His parents Annie and Michael (D. B. Sweeney) are in trouble. Mia Tynan (Sarah Strange) is Deborah's liberal single mom and friend to the Whitmans.
I really love the Jonathan Deborah relationship. It's adorably cute and hilarious at times. Ben and Miss Young have a compelling forbidden relationship. Jackie has her after-school-special life. Dino drives me crazy with his annoying whines. Some of it can be excused but it doesn't make it appealing. He simply rubs me the wrong way. Then there are the interior monologues. They are not a good gimmick and break up the flow of the show. Also Dino gets to whine AT the audience which is even more annoying. This is pretty good as a teen melodrama with a photogenic cast. The various annoyances keep it from being great.
