Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/24 Full Review Polariss S This show is exactly what it feels like to be a teenaged in the summer of your “prime” year.

Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/19/24 Full Review Nishtha S I have always hoped that Belly should end up with Conrad and she did in this season. The books are good too.
