Has anyone ever watch Outer Banks!

Okay, Outer Banks doesn't have an exclamation point at the end, but it should.

So here's the story. I love a tv show about stupid high schoolers but played by 30 year olds. They are sappy, stupid, sexy, and sometimes sweet. (Yeah, I still like an oxford comma, wanna make something of it?)

But I have tried to watch this show, like 4 or 5, times. Each time I can get a little farther in it, but at some point (still on the first episode) it is so awful I have to turn it off. Who ever decided to make this show for Netflix (now in its 2nd season) decided to throw every cliché into the pot and stir.

There is the absent mother, the sad dad, later the dead dad, the high schoolers never in school and having massive high school parties on the beach without adults (so who bought all the liquor). There are the four (growing to five) stereotypical friends:

1. The cute but damaged boy lead - long hair, nice body 
2. The surfer friend - blond, hothead, a bit arrogant (shirt usually off)
3. The black friend - usually keeps his shirt on to show he is the smart one 
4. The mixed-raced friend tomboy - she is, but doesn't believe it, pretty and smart
5.  ......and then they win over....
6. The rich girl whom the lead has always had a crush on but is to shy to say it, blond sassy and embarrassed by daddy's coin (and helps with the villain who is rich girl's ex, rich and bitter)

Real Ages, in the same order

1. Plays 16 (ha!) is 26.
2. Plays 16 - is 22
3. Plays 16 - is 23
4. Plays 16 - is 22
5. Plays 16 - is 23

I just want you all to think back at how you looked at 16. Not like any of them.
