Episodes

Episode 1: Pilot Episode:
Brynn starts her senior year, as Kyle starts his sophomore year. Jenna goes to her community college's oreintation, and ends up feeling overwhelmed with the new information. Jenna goes to her orientation alone, after telling her parents she didn't want them to come-but halfway through the overwhelming oreintation, Jenna calls her parents's cell phones in hope of getting them to come to the orientation--yet Jake and Renee already have plans (that they can't get out of).

Episode 2: College Parties:
Jenna goes to a college party at a frat house, where she learns Brynn is at as well. The sisters meet up, talk, and promise each other not to tell on the other. The sisters end up drunk and come stumbling (loudly) home at 3 AM. Jake and Renee are out of town for the weekend, but the girls have to answer to Kyle-who blackmails his sisters wisely.

Episode 3: Drama, Oh The Drama:
Jake, in the heat of the agruement with Brynn, calls Brynn a "drama queen". Brynn takes it personally and is hurt. Renee and Jenna feel what Jake said was not right and he shouldn't have said it. Jake thinks it's still true though-but eventually goes and has a talk with Brynn. Meanwhile, Kyle and his best friend, Chris (Jesse McCartney) get detentions for defending Brynn after some senior guys called Brynn "a slut" in front of a crowd of people.

Episode 4: Halloween, Taylor-Style:
Jake and Renee throw their annual costume party at the house for their family and friends. Jake and Renee's rented costumes end up not being what they ordered. They ordered: a devil (for Jake) and an angel (for Renee); but get stuck with the last two costumes there: Gomez and Morticia Addams. Meanwhile, Kyle and Chris go pumpkin-smashing and get caught. Jenna and Brynn end up wearing the same costume to the

a Playboy Bunny.

Episode 5: Happy Birthday Boy:
Kyle's 16th Birthday is here. Kyle begs his parents to get him a car after he gets his license the following week. Kyle gets his license, but Jake and Renee don't get him a car-due to the fact they can't afford it. An upset Kyle goes out and tries to get a job. Brynn and Jenna meet their hunky, 20-something new neighbor, Mike (Ashton Kutcher), they both get crushes on him, and compete for his love--until he tells them he has a girlfriend (who's in New York working for the week).

Episode 6: Jocks In Socks:
Jenna and Brynn "accidentally" walks into the guys' lockerroom (at the community college), and walks in on the whole football team completely naked. The girls claim it was an accident, but Jake and Kyle have a feeling the girls knew what they were doing. Renee hires Kyle as a busboy at her restaurant to earn extra cash.

Not a bad start, some great rough drafts here. i'd just say work on developing the characters a little more, especially the girls, you need to make sure that audience can tell them apart and care abou them. Also get the parents involved more, maybe even give them their own storylines...

But good start...
