I am really loving how they are bringing in a real look at mental health in a respectful manner and entertaining manner. This is how you start to get rid of its stigma.
That's great that they did their due dilligence.I can't find the interview right now, but apparently they hadn't settled on what her actual diagnosis (diagnoooosis) was until about halfway through season 2, and after they looked at her actions throughout the show and did a lot of research, they kinda felt it was BPD. But then they showed the series to actual mental health experts and asked them what her diagnosis (diagnooooooosis) would be, and they all came up with BPD too.

To be certain, however, they consulted with a team of doctors.
"We didn't tell them that we thought it was borderline; we just said, 'Watch these episodes of the show,'" Bloom said. Their consensus was clear: Rebecca was acting like someone with borderline personality disorder.
True, but it's criminally overlooked. :(
Oh wow, I hadn't noticed the thing with the titles before. But they're probably going to start changing the episode titles now right? Josh is irrelevant... so it makes sense that the titles might start with "Rebecca" now?
Hmm, that title for the next episode.
Getting Over Jeff
Something major missing from that title.
oh godNathaniel walked away all sexy.
But ugh, that pimple pop. *holds back vomit*
And apparently based on a true story according to Rachel!
That makes it even worse.
With Josh's parts, I just felt sorry for him.

The pimple part was barfy. I just flinched there. But his "I'm a big boy!" Stuff while trying to show off was just sad and pathetic.It's not necessarily Josh (even though he's annoying), but the pimple thing is barfy to me haha. My sister warned me, so I fast forwarded.

On a different note, the Darryl/White Josh train is over. Dammit.
Hrrm.So I went and looked at the episode titles coming up and...
"Nathaniel Needs My Help!" and "Nathaniel Gets the Message!"
We're back to the exclamations of the first season, but, with Nathaniel instead of Josh.....

I really liked the first season of this show but kind of forgot about it in the glut of new media coming out. Are seasons 2 and 3 as good or better than that, or has it fallen off in quality since then?
Season 2 has a bit of a slow start imo, but finishes REALLY strong, and 3 has been pretty consistently strong
