Good. This dreck should have been aborted after the pilot.
I bet Shailene is grateful to be rid of this show. She was so impressive in The Descendants and was frequently mentioned as an Oscar contender for her role in it. She deserves better than having to do this lousy show.
“She was so impressive in The Descendants and was frequently mentioned as an Oscar contender for her role in it.”
She was frequently mentioned because she was nominated.
You do realize if it wasn’t for this “lousy” show, she most likely wouldn’t have been cast in the Descendants right? This show gave her her break. I bet she is grateful for it. I would be if I was her.
you are right she deserves a lot better but this is the best show ever and that’s probably what got her part in that movie. secret life has got her talents noticed…
She was nominated for a Golden Globe, not an Oscar.
Secret Life was a very guilty pleasure show of mine, but I think it ran it’s course.
High time, too. It was terrible. Here’s hoping for better things for the very talented Shailene Woodley.
Um secret life is the best show everrrrr, gtfo lol
Wow. I read where Daren Kagasoff (Ricky) said on his Twitter about “filming for the last time” or somethin’ to that effect.
This was the best show ever.. I watched every episode, I laughed when the actors laughed and cried when they cried, Never have I seen a show and plot as brillant as this before. I am tremendously sad to see this show come to an end. I will miss waiting for this show to come on. Having this show come to an end makes me never want to watch televsion again. We shoulf all give it up for Brenda Hampton in creating one of the best series ever.
Am happy for this TV show and at the same sad because i will miss watching it.kudos! to the actors.
Ive been watching this show from the begining I am sad to see it end but it was coming considering they are all just about done with high school and the show is the secret life of an american teenager it was boundd to end im just glad I got to watch the show while it was on
You also have to realize that this show have her her big break. Yes she had other parts prior but none that took off ligake this one you
So sad:( love this show!!!!!
This show was incredibly stupid, I saw two episodes and wanted to pull out my eyeballs.
I am in my 30′s, i was a teen mom, this show was my teenage life. School, baby, work, i was last. I would of liked to have seen more of a struggling teen mom in the script, as that is what it is. I have watched every episode and will continue to watch till the end. I hate when i get involved in a show that is close in heart & then it ends. Best luck to the entire cast.
