I miss Sweet Valley High! (the TV series)

Goodness, if that e-Book was the real deal… please tell me Francine Pascal didn’t write the epilogue for Sweet Valley Confidential? The writing felt like it was straight out of the world of fan fiction. But then again, I sort of loved the closure for the twins at the conclusion of the book. Almost Everyone gets their happy ending and I’m not complaining. Yes, I’m still buying the book once it’s released here. Just for posterity because I will always credit that series for being a huge part of my teenage years.
 
In the meantime, let me leave you with this video I saw in YouTube. Anyone here still remembers the Sweet Valley High TV series back in the 90s? I remembered it was shown here on ABC5 (now TV5) and I used to look forward to it every Wednesdays. (or was it Fridays?) Nah, my memory’s getting rusty.
 

 
I think I lost interest in the show after Todd was re-cast. Ryan Bittle will always be Todd Wilkins for me. Jeremy Garrett somehow never captured his charm when he joined the cast for the third and fourth (final) seasons of the show.

  1. Another Sweet Valley fan here! =) Gotta say I like the books more than the TV show though. Cynthia and Brittany Daniels aren't even identical twins. Haha.

  2. I miss the books! When I was younger, I was waiting for my first kiss because of Elizabeth's poem for Todd. Haha.

  3. @Nath - Before I could never tell them apart. But now that I'm older, mas strong pala ang facial features ni Brittany than Cynthia. But yeah, I really loved the books. The TV series had too much modifications.

    @Miss 'Chievous - Todd/Elizabeth were my ideal couple during high school. Nasira lahat nung SVH: Senior Year. Hehe!
