So, I feel like this is OSTENSIBLY very PRETTY:

I mean, it is. It is pretty. Of course it is. But it also feels, to me, like it's been done a hundred times before, like it's the dress version of a teen girl on a nighttime soap falling in love with her teacher (hello, *Pretty Little Liars* \[although I deeply love you\], *Make It or Break It* \[ditto\], *Life Unexpected* \[said plot twist is what made me quit you\], *Big Love* \[which is unwatchable this season but I'm sticking it out to the last even though every episode makes me want to punch Bill in the face and then go on a killing spree\] and *Gossip Girl* \[which at least did us the honor of sending the dude to jail for sleeping with Serena before he actually did it\]). Like: I get why it works and I see why you're doing it, but haven't you got something BETTER for me?

What do you think?
