Popular Reviews of 1994

Cheesy teen road trip adventure. Had a bit of a Goldberg's feel to it at the start. Story moves along well with some likeable characters and some not so. Overall fairly average but not to many episodes so worth a go.

A bunch of deeply unpleasant mediocrities go on a road trip and spread the misery around. The concept might be fine for a 2 hr movie but as a series, it makes you just want to light yourself on fire because everyone here is just needlessly terrible. Particularly, Jack I-don't-care-to-remember-which-one, is a textbook example of the Dunning-Kruger effect. It does not help that the show is filtered through rose colored glasses nostalgia that asks of you to dismiss James insulting a waitress for no reason as "Ah, the dumb things we did in those halcyon days."I'm not holding my breath that the plot won't be ultimately about how the protagonist will learn that the the girl he badgers into promising to go to prom with him if he has money, will turn out to be not worthy of his affections. A guy who thinks he can buy affections? What a prize individual! One wonders if this character will be allowed to internalize how deeply screwed up he is to think he can buy affection and how that is not the thought process of someone who is a good person, much less wants to be a good boyfriend.
