Secret life of the american teenager on ABCfam

[Boss Hogg]

Just wondering if anyone had caught the first 2 eps of secret life/amarican teenager with John on abcFAM?

I had a chance to see last weeks ep.-I missed tonights show but will try to catch the re-run at 12....
It's a little uncomfortable for me with all those teens talking sex but
it's not a bad show...plus a chance to watch Bo ....uhhh I mean John:p

Tues night @ 8 east
repeats @ midnight east

p.s. The ep. of Home Improvement with Tom Wopat was on TBS today
great to see Tom!;)

the episodes are available to watch on youtube and abcfamily.com

The show isn't uncomfortable for me...but being a teacher, with two teenagers, and a youth group leader to 50 some teens (some of which had children of their own already)and such I guess stuff like that just doesnt phase me anymore. Sadly it has become the reality... definately a far cry from Hazzard County...

i missed all the original airings but i watched the 1st 2 on youtube last night. it really is a good show. and ur right, unfortunatlly it is reality. being in high school myself i kinda see it everyday. but i go to a hick school with only about 50 people in my class but there is usually i girl every year in at least one grade who ends up like that. but yes i enjoyed seeing john. he was great. =) as always.lol


also, if you go to imdb.com they have lists of when people are gonna be on TV next. it is pretty helpful if you need a dukes fix but don't have any seasons on DVD and you need to see someone from the show. lol

I've started watching this show too and I really like it. I'm not uncomfortable with the topic cos it is a reality these days unfortunately and I had a cousin who had a baby when she was 19 that kid is now 15 almost 16.

Did anybody see "Secret Life" last night??? Did you notice John's reference to Dukes???

His character was talking about his daughter and said "Maybe she can be the night rent-a-cop at the deli on Frontage Road"

Sooooo funny. :lol:

[MadagascarLover01]

I love the Secrt Life of the American Teenager. It's a great show. Sydney White also has John in it.

I was ROTFL when I heard that! :rofl:

I started watching Secret Life just because John was in it, but I ended up loving the show as a whole :)

[BoJamesDuke]

Yeah me too, it is really in touch with what is unfortunatly going on in today's society. IGreat show, I never miss an episode.

John was awsome in the Secret Life and hes still as cute as he once was

[mike77]

I also started watching it when it came out because of seeing that it had John in it and I just got into watching it.

[BoJamesDuke]

Yeah same here, Anything that John's in i'll tend to watch because usually its family stuff... (with the exception of Nip/Tuck which I didnt watch lol)

[DaisyMaeDuke]

Did y'all catch the season finale of The Secret Life...this week?

John's character is watching tv...and he breaks into a Rosco impersonation:

"Kew-kew I love that character"

Soooo funny.

I love how he always puts a Duke tidbit in there though...it's almost like a special gift from him to us (the true fans that catch it)... what a great guy...I love him I love him!

[daisydukeXenosstrait]

I saw the episode i also caught the quote but i forgot what he said exactly

[BoJamesDuke]

lol I did, he really is great. In everything he does he tries and puts something in there...have you noticed its mainly Rosco quotes though...I wish he'd put something more Bo-ish in there lol

[DaisyMaeDuke]

That'd be nice...but I think his reasonong not to is two-fold. First, no offense, but Bo doesn't really have any "lines" he is known for saying...there isn't really a Bo-ism that you could hear and automatically say that's Bo talking...Rosco is a bit easier.

Also, I think John just admires Jimmie a lot. That's probably why he always pays tribute to him, even calling Collier and Co. "Hot Pursuit," a phrase James Best coined.

So there is my two cents...for what it's worth.

[BoJamesDuke]

Yeah both those points are true and I dont think anyone can deny that James Best, Sorrell Booke and Denver Pyle are people that John admires not only as a person but as an actor. When you see him act in Smallville, he very much has Denver's portrayal of Uncle Jesse in there. He does Rosco impressions in things he does every chance he gets...and its great he learnt at a very early age what true acting is supposed to look like. There are a lot of actors around today that could have benifited from those three actors experiences.

And who says you need a line to have a Bo-ism? lol Any Blonde moment would do...the best blonde moment Bo ever had was the One Gallon Gas Can one...shhheesshhh Bo! lol

[DaisyMaeDuke]

you don't need one...Bo just isnt known for a particular phrase...so though us adament fans would get it, the rest of the audience would be going huh?!

[BoJamesDuke]

lol I know, but that's the beauty of it!!! lol Only us Dukes fans would know and for people who wanted to know what it was about, they'd have to watch Dukes!! See its a cleever marketing plan to get Dukes back in popularity even more!!

I see that the show is aired on Sky or another digital tv here in Italy
