awkward season 3 review

“Awkward” season 3 has been at times inconsistent, at times very dark, and at times funny. But, Tuesday night brought the end to Jenna Hamilton’s journey for the time being, and it involved all sorts of strange feelings. The start of the episode felt much like the vintage version of the show: Jenna had an […]

Tonight’s episode of “Awkward” lasted for a full hour as we prepare for the big arrival of prom, and while there was a major victory for Jenna Hamilton, it probably was not exactly what she expected. Let us start here with what has to be the good news when it comes to Jenna: She found […]

“Awkward” season 3 has been all about Jenna’s redemption story, and going into the start of Tuesday night’s new installment, it was really starting to feel like the old Jenna was back again. She had her friends back (though on probation), she was fitting it at school (thanks in part to her mom wearing suggestive […]

It’s been a long, dark season for “Awkward,” but Tuesday night provided the first real opportunity for Jenna Hamilton to really start to peek her head over the rainclouds, and to see the other side. The unfortunate thing for her is that in the process, she ended up realizing that not everyone is really going […]

When we first heard that “Awkward” was going to air two episodes on Tuesday night, making it an hour of new programming that extended well past 11:00 p.m. Eastern, we had one question: Why in the world would you do that? But after watching it, it is starting to make a little bit more sense: […]

Take […]

What in the world is going on with “Awkward“? A show that used to be a pretty strong ratings contributor (at least around the 2 million range) is starting to fight to keep itself above a million, and it’s suffering when it comes to holding on to what it originally was for MTV: A funny, […]

Last week, “Awkward” was all about the shock in finding out the news over what happened between Jenna and Collin. This week was all about dealing with the aftermath. What made this episode tonight so strong was the way in which the writers chose to go about handling what could have been one heck of […]

Tonight, “Awkward” season 3 returned to television to yet again remind us of one thing: Jenna Hamilton is a pretty horrible human being. We suppose that her constant sense of stress and mistake making is what makes her someone that people can identify with, but if there is one thing to tell teens out there […]

On Tuesday night, “Awkward” at least came to the midway point of season 3 with a pretty epic mid season finale that looked to answer a number of key questions. Was Jenna really going to cheat on Matty with Collin? Were Jake and Tamara in serious trouble? What’s with Ming and the Asian mafia? Well, […]
