Faking It- Thank goodness this was renewed. I was worried since I had no idea if this was doing well (for MTV) or not. And it sounded like there were some viewers angered by the last scene, so I didn't know if that was going to have a hand in it not getting a second season. Or rather, lessen the number of people petitioning MTV to renew this show.
In any case, for those who didn't like how it ended, this article should reassure you.
But yeah, now that I've seen the ep for real, I can see why some people would have a knee jerk reaction and be angry and offended, and how it is a controversial scene to end the season on. But as I said last ime, I think the "Eff this show, I quit!" anger is premature, and labeling it queer-baiting is total BS. In a different context, sure I can see why it could be construed as that, but that's not what's happening here.
