US TV Series for Teens Awkward

This MTV series revolves around 16-year old Jenna Hamilton (played by Ashley Rickards) who is struggling with her identity, a phase most teenagers go through. She feels invisible in a popularity-driven school. However when she gets the attention she was looking for, it was through an accident that was misconstrued as a suicide. She has a huge crush with Matty McKibben (played by Beau Mirchoff) and she loses her virginity to him but Matty wants to keep their relationship a secret.

The season 1 of MTV’s ‘Awkward” premiers July 2011 and each half-hour episode features the typical high school life of an American teen. The story may seem simple as it is narrated by teenage girl’s blog. But it was entertaining and had a bit of mystery because Jenna receives a care-frontation letter from a mystery letter sender.

Though it seems simple, the story shows the conflicts and complications in each of the characters. The movie makes one feel the excitement of high school life. And another plus factor is the actors which are easy on the eyes like Ashley and Beau.

Note: IMO, this series is recommended for mature teenagers only- those who know that they should not imitate everything they see on TV and knows that they are responsible for their actions. This is because IMO again, there are so many sex scenes in this show and also features drugs and alcohol.

The season 2 of Awkward is yet to start this year.

Awkward Cast

Ashley Rickards: Jenna Hamilton

Beau Mirchoff: Matty Mckibben

Brett Davern: Jake Rosati

Molly Tarlov: Sadie Saxton (Jenna’s nemesis)

Jillian Rose Reed: Tamara (Jenna’s bestfriend)

Nikki DeLoach: Lacey Hamilton (Jenna’s mom)

Desi Lydic: Valerie Marks (high school counselor)

Jane Oineza: Sweet Young Actress

Elizabeth Jane Oineza or simply Jane Oineza was born July 22, 1996. This sweet young actress started her career in the fantaserye Marina where she played the role of young Marina played by Claudine Barretto. 

She became a part of the hit gag show for kids, Goin’ Bulilit. She portayed the role of younger version of main female characters in many shows such as Prinsesa ng Banyera and Ugly Betty. She is also part of a feature film entitled, Bakit Papa and of Kung Fu Kids, a live-action fantasy series produced by ABS-CBN which revolves around seven kids with different personalities and supernatural powers. She graduated from Goin’ Bulilit but her younger sister, Noemi Oineza remains as a mainstay of the gag show.

She became a part of an entertainment show for teens, Shoutout but the show was short-lived. She is also part of the teleserye, Maria la del Barrio and at present she is one of the cast of the new version of  Oka2kat. The new Oka2kat also stars Makisig Morales, Paul Salas, Sue Anna Ramirez and Joshua Colet.

By the way, am I the only one here who thinks Jane Oineza looks like Angelina Jolie?
