+1 I wish Laurel had a bigger role this season. I liked the side stories of her and Susannah in the first season and her and Cleveland Castillo.


I think they’re just making laurel single for the sake of a plot line in the movie.

This show was pretty awful from the acting to the story line, but the one thing I really don't get is all the Conrad fans. He is such a wet noodle. I don't even find him attractive as he just seems so slight and boring, and Briney is just not a dynamic actor. Season 1 he was a jerk, and other seasons he was like a pathetic puppy dog. What are women seeing in this guy? Was shocked to see him being compared to DiCaprio who was hot in his youth with mega personality, even if now he is an old creep (my age) who only dates under 25s (still a brilliant actor though). Jeremiah ends up being a dick, and then returns to his more chill self after Belly leaves, but I can at least see how he is appealing with serious sex appeal.

Belly is so vanilla. Truly an uninteresting person. I'm glad it's over. Season 1 was fun and cute, but the last two were insufferable.


Agree one hundred percent with all of this. Conrad is first emotionally unavailable and then pathetic. What makes Jeremiah attractive in the first book is his genuine affection and care for Belly and then he becomes a totally different character in later books/seasons.


Also don’t find Christopher Brinney at all attractive.

Yes! I am binging the first season today and Conrad is just so...what do people see in him? Jeremiah is at least nice to Belly and fun. Plus he is much better looking. Conrad is just so brooding but not even in that cook Dylan McKay type of way. Wet noodle is a good adjective.


Conrad is gorgeous and Chris briney is arguably the only good actor on the show.

Conrad’s character is kind, loving and respectful and shows real emotional growth. He has always loved belly and vice versa. Jeremiah is just immature and manipulative - and belly never truly loved him, which many fans immediately saw.

He's today's Jordan Catalano. Except replace leaning with yearning.

Conrad has that average white guy look that’s supposed to be what every white woman wants.

Walk across the quad at any college campus and you’ll see countless young men who are exponentially hotter.

I do admit Chris was a good casting decision though.

You sound weirdly invested in a fictional characters from a badly written YA series.

He cannot act for shit. The girl who plays Taylor is the only good young actress.

Can someone give me and my 13 year old son permission to stop watching. We finished Season 3 episode 5 last night and were shocked to see there are still 5 more episodes left, all over an hour. We loved the first season, season 2 just ok, and now it's just so endless.

Cast interviews are popping up in my Facebook feed. I’m one of the posters who doesn’t get the Conrad love. Yet when I see Christopher Briney be interviewed, I’d have to say Conrad is ten times better. Chris is just too scruffy looking. He looks like he could be stoned in these interviews.

Gavin on the other hand still looks good in the interviews and he’s so personable

Belly’s not hot though. She’s pretty average.

Funnily enough I think Taylor is a pretty terrible actress. Very valley girl.
