PLOT:

The story is based on the lives of 12th grade students at the DeNobly High School and their adventures, their fears and hopes, their relationships and interactions. Besides that the story also focuses on issues pertinent for the younger generation such as dating, careers, health, exams, causes in a light-hearted manner and many social activities.

The first season of the series more focused on the stars where they were in school flitting through life with joys and sorrows of life as students. But the second season focuses on students lives on campus. Each episode of the series takes you through the year spent by an exciting bunch of teenagers – a year during which they fall in love, and suffer heart-breaks, have problems with their teachers and parents, experience pressures at exam time and so on. Their trials and tribulations are captured poignantly and with rare sensitivity.

The way the teenagers live their lives definetly reminds one thier school and college days,the fun and excitement and the way they helped each other through their problems and how they had thier crushes on teachers. Every character here was a special one and that is what was very good about this show as like others it did not revolve around two or three characters. Here each and every character was given importance.

The first season released in 1999 that showed us about the school life was an instant hit and in no time became a cult show loved by most of the youth and yonger generation then.As a result to this a second season was released in 2001 which showed us about the college life although it did not really live up to its expectations specially after the first season and it was stopped early with no more seasons to it.

There have been quite a few television series after this which has foccused on the younger generation but this one definetly has been one the best.
