...On ABC Family?

I think I might check it out because it looks interesting, ALTHOUGH it does seem like a copy of Nickelodeon's short-lived Caitlin's Way. We'll see...

Yeah, it also reminded me of Caitlin's Way, but it looks kinda interesting. I don't like to judge shows or movies just by watching the perviews, so I'll check it out!
