3,5 Sterne

Der größte Focus liegt in diesem Teil auf Brenda und Dylan, die heimlich ihre Beziehung fortsetzen obwohl Papa Walsh es nach dem Mexiko-Trip strikt verboten hat. Aber sowas macht die Liebe ja nur noch größer, wie bei Romeo & Julia. Allerdings merkt auch Brenda, dass ein Zusammenleben mit Dylan (wie ein 'altes' Ehepaar) auch seine Tücken hat. Und dann erhält sie die Möglichkeit, den Sommer in Paris zu verbringen...allerdings ohne Dylan.

Eine schöne Erinnerung an die ganz alten Folgen, als Brenda und Dylan noch ein Paar waren. An manches das hier vorkommt kann ich mich tatsächlich auch noch erinnern, obwohl es schon bald 3 Jahrzehnte her ist dass ich es geschaut habe. Wird mal wieder Zeit....

It wasn’t bad. I’m not a fan of how Jim handles things with Brenda and the whole Kelly and Dylan thing just irks me. She’s Brenda’s best friend. Just not what best friends would do. Really disappointing.

Covering the first few episodes of season 3, this book really does a good job filling out character insights. Plus it's just a fun way to revisit these characters I grew up with.

Drama, drama, drama!!!!! So much drama going on for a group of high school kids. It was like a regular high school on steroids but it did touch on a lot of problems kids can face. It was very entertaining.
