Plot
In the series, ultra-competitive fraternal twins Lindy and Logan Watson, together with their three best friends, navigate their freshman year of high school. Each episode begins with a comedic ‘what just happened?’ situation as Lindy and Logan each spin their own vivid account of a certain occurrence or predicament. The series utilises flashback scenes to tell the siblings’ unique stories.[1] This concept was abandoned in season 2.
Abandoning the original concept, in season 2, the main focus is the friendships and relationships between the characters, including the main relationship of Jasmine and Logan, leading them to end up together. The second season also focuses a lot on dogs for Lindy, in which she fosters a few dogs throughout the season.
