Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

herobrineclone This is my favorite show that I've watched. All the characters are amazing. I cried many times. The music fits well with every scene. The acting is incredible. It gave me feels the entire time. Watch it!

derwood294 The story over all was a mess. No real story line to follow. Yes it is a TV show but it was a show based in some sort of reality but in no way did this show represent reality. It was every hot topic in the news thrown into a show and lets see if we can make a story. Guess what...they couldn't. The best description to describe this show is a "My So Called Life" type show based off twitter headlines and some singing to draw in the Glee crowd. And I wish I could give a half star.

naturallyrockin The main ingredient of this series' "Kool-Aid" is sugar-coated propaganda. The real moral of this show should be -- "Mr Mazzu is a total jerk that you would never want as a teacher, or role model for your children". The writer(s) seem to feel an urgency to cram in every imaginable angle of human drama that involves moral decay. It definitely is reminiscent of Glee's first season, but darker, R-rated. The characters, however, remind me more of High School Musical - it's like Vanessa Hudgens hooked up with Corbin Bleu instead, while Zac's doppleganger is lovesick for the equivalent of Lucas Grabeel. They say, history repeats itself. Unfortunately, it seems to be twisting in a downward spiral.

britkiser Rise is a show that makes you feel. You can relate and is something that we didn't know we needed until it was here.
