The new summer season has started and with it comes new shows.
1. Make It Or Break It
Make It Or Break It is the story of four teenagers trying to survive the competitive world of gymnastics and balancing a normal personal life. There’s nothing new about it, but I love the fact that the characters have very extreme personalities. Emily is a gymnast scholar at the Rock and will do anything to ensure her family lives a good life. Payson Keeler, the top gymnast, works hard and sacrifices her teenage life to make it to the top. Kaylie Cruz breaks the rules when she secretly dates another gymnast from the club. And super competitive Lauren Tanner will do anything to make sure she’s on top including selling out her friends.
Mondays, 9/8c, ABC Family
2. NYC Prep
NYC Prep is a reality show about the lives of prep school kids in NYC. The show follows the lives of Jessie, PC, Kellie, Camille, Sebastian and Taylor as they try to live each day to get closer to their dreams. The show is a bit shallow, considering the central idea. If you want to know what kids do to pass time in NYC, you can try and watch this show. Otherwise, avoid the show. It’s intended for kids of the same age anyway.
Tuesday, 9/8c, Bravo
3. 10 Things I Hate About You
Based on the movie of the same title, 10 Things I Hate About You is the story of Kat and Bianca Stratford, two teenagers who’ve just entered the world of Padua High. Kat is a feminist who wants to save the world and get out of high school as fast as she can. Bianca is a social butterfly, determined to get into the good graces of the most popular girl in school. It’s very cute and while it resembles the movie’s storyline, they’ve managed to change some things around and offer a fresh spin on the show.
Tuesdays, 9/8c, ABC Family
4. The Fashion Show
The Fashion Show is Bravo’s replacement for Project Runway, which has moved to the Lifetime Network. The show stars Isaac Mizrahi and Kelly Rowland and features 16 designers competing for the grand prize of $125,000 and a chance to sell their designs in the retail market. It’s a great show, and the designers have turned out amazing pieces, but I do miss the drama of Project Runway.
Thursday, 10/9c, Bravo
