The Secret Life of the American Teenager
By: Maddy Hill

The Secret Life of the American Teenager has just completed their second season with a total of twelve episodes, and adding on from the first season; the hit TV show came to a total of twenty-three episodes.
I thought the show was just outstanding, phenomenal! I used to watch the Secret Life every Tuesday night at eight o clock p.m. (well I’m waiting for the third season to come out, so the show isn’t on anymore). Never, in my whole life, have I been attached to the TV on a Tuesday night so much! The show is just so interesting and can relate to people our age because they are only in the ninth and tenth grade, which isn’t that much of an age difference.
The show has a basic plot about a fifteen year old girl named Amy, gets pregnant. Some girls can relate to that and it can show girls that it’s not good to get pregnant at such a young age because as they show in the TV series, Amy not only struggles to survive the teenage world, but has to deal with being pregnant.
The Secret Life kept you on the edge and made you begged for more. It made you keep the TV on for five more minutes just to watch next weeks previews. The show not only taught you a valuable lesson, but it also made ABC Family gets more viewers watching the show. I just thought ABC Family had put on a great TV series and I can’t wait until the third season comes out!
