My So Called Life

This TV drama ended too early, leaving us all hanging at the end of the first and only season, but we can still look back and pine over the hotness of actor/musician Jared Leto.

We related to the angsty character of Angela with her insecurities and shyness, and the surrounding characters that shared in her experience.

Her parents, funny and caring, weren’t always put together, showing an honest portrayal of family life and marriage.

There was always that one friend who was wild and rebellious like Rayanne, who we slightly envied. And the best friend we were always tied to growing up, like Sharon, but soon realized that both of us were drifting apart.

"My So Called Life" offered the raw complexities of adolescence and teenage life.
