Mostly light hearted drama without an abundance melodrama but Rushed ending

I do really love this drama & I thought the Lead actors are great. I liked that it was a mostly light hearted drama without an abundance melodrama (it was nice that the crying & wailing were minimal.)There are a fair amount of obstacles thrown in the path of love, they are mostly dumb obstacles .
It was a bit sad that the female lead was made to look so dowdy & was not dressed or styled attractively, but they do make a point that the male lead does not fall for her because of her looks. .

I didn't give this a perfect score because :

1) Female lead's BFF was annoying & dirty minded
2) The athletic director was more grating than funny.
3) It got a bit too cutesy about 1/2 way through.
4) 3/4 of the way through they teased a possible love triangle with a gay character which was oddly timed & placed.
5) the way the end was handled
6) music was super annoying because they just didn't have much variety but played the same songs over & over.

5 different romances were resolved in the course of the drama but the satisfaction is dulled by the amount of time it takes to get to the end. AND, the happy ending comes in a rush [in the last 5 minutes] for the couple you care about the most.


Amazon has 22 episodes, but Net Flix has 36 episodes so not sure what that's all about but 36 episodes was really too much & dulls your enthusiasm as you slog through the insipid scenes with the "relief" humor which is neither a relief or funny.
