I felt the character of Izzy (Calvin's s crush) was out of place, there was only supposed to be a 3 year age gap but she looks so much older than him, making their dating scenes a very weird viewing in fact it would have been better without their dating scenes.
I did enjoy watching Skye and Calvin's friendship develop though, it was not often someone with such a strong personality would become best friends with someone who was the complete opposite. It also made a change from 2 main characters falling in love.
