It's Only a Test (#1.17)

An episode about tests. SAT and also breast cancer. I like how they put it both together. I think it could help teens that are freaking out over it to put things into perspective, realize that it is not a life and death situation and not feel so nervous. And when it comes to the breast cancer, they really go well with the story by going step by step on what is going on, kind of teaching young girls about what it all could be. Of course none of us really expected Brenda to have anything really bad.

I must say it is great that Steve and Andrea kissed. I just hope they go with it somewhere. I never thought of the two of them getting together and I remember nothing from my childhood watching of this show, but now i think it could be fun.

I have recently been watching this show streaming on CBS.com. I really enjoy it, but I also think it is very strange how each episode is completely individual with absolutely no plot spilling into the next one. The biggest example so far that I have seen is the transition from this episode to the next one. In this episode, Brenda and Brandon are unable to take their SATs. However, in the next episode, all of the students receive their SAT score INCLUDING Brenda and Brandon. It is so strange. It is as if the writers and directors said "no one will notice" when someone pointed out the issue. Also, I think it is strange that Brandon has an endless number of romantic flings and when they end, they always vow to still be friends and keep in touch, yet we never see these girls beyond one episode. I just have a few issues with the show, but overall I think that it is great.
