It's the best show on MTV--and one of the best on any network this summer. [6 Jul 2012, p.71]

Every episode leaves me wanting for more! I've seen all the episodes of Season 1 and 2 non-stop, and I'm still not eagerly waiting for the next. Great acting+ great story = Happy audience

The spirit of John Hughes lives on in this rowdy ensemble of insecure spazzes and delightfully fresh mean girls (yes, we're talking about you, Sadie).

The performance quality of the show is matched only by the sharpness of the writing.

If it doesn't have the ABC sitcom's [Suburgatory's] satiric sheen, it captures some of those glum patches that strike in adolescence. [2 Jul 2012, p.38]

The relationship plots are less interesting to me than the comedy.

Awkward has grown and matured, but I don't think I love the direction that MTV and, presumably, Iungerich have chosen to push the show.

Sinceramente, esperava um pouco mais desta temporada. Os novos casais e os plots das personagens são minimamentes satisfatórios, mas, de facto, a MTV podia ter se esforçado mais. Não foi o suficiente para eu adorar.

More **** pleasure than anything of quality. The performances are perfect if you compare them to Lifetime. An unbearable protagonist flanked by even more annoying charaters makes an insufferable show.

This show became tripe as its first season wore on, and season two continues its abysmal journey. In season two it fully embraces a central concept of a popular girl and a ridiculous Twilight-style love triangle. How edgy. That Jenna "chooses" Matty, the reprehensible creature who had a relationship with her but kept it secret because she was beneath his social position, is a final nail in the coffin. Ignoring any notion of self-respect, Jenna chooses the hotter guy who so seriously abused her. Of course, Matty is now presented as a sterling guy, a worthy challenger to nice guy, Jake, even as he uses another girl while pining for Jenna. That this show is aimed at teenagers is a disgrace in and of itself. What is the message? Go with the hot guy who you crush on, no matter how disgusting his behaviors are. The first few episodes of season one showed a great deal of promise. I kept waiting for Jenna to come to the realization that she respected herself too much to bother with the likes of Matty. No. Matty's abs were too alluring. God, I came to hate this show so very much.
