I did not grow up in the 90's. At the time of this writing, I am 16 years old. This show is my favorite of all time. I could not sympathize with all of the characters, but Angela Chase is a character that takes you on a journey. You meet all of her friends and as a teen in this day and age, with phones conquering any sense of talking, it makes me want to be in her clique. Angela changes as a person, but she still does not want to become a slutty or promiscuous girl. You see how decisions can directly affect people without you knowing it. Angela made many decisions and you could see Brian Krakow visibly hurt not in her presence. Brian is a hopeless romantic in love with Angela and no matter what he did her eyes were set on Jordan Catalano. This show is able to translate pain and sadness with absolute ease. I have not had my first girlfriend yet, but you see young love unfold and how much hurt can be caused. I have never felt such intense sadness or pain before watching My So Called Life. This show changed me as a person and I thank Winnie Holzman for having that effect on me. The ending ends obviously on a cliffhanger, but it was an amazing show and I do not think we, as an audience , will see anything like it ever again.
