They make extremely clever use of overlays to show off their Twitter accounts and tie the show into their Social Media presence. Fantastically executed. (Style 4)

What I like most about this show are the characters. Even though the supporting cast (except for the wacky friend Wallace) don’t get a lot of screen time, they are a fun bunch and really add color to the show. What I like least is that a lot of the early episodes seem repetitive, not that the plots are the same but the themes are and they don’t do anything to drive the story forward. (Storytelling 3)
