The show tells the story of two presumably straight best friends who pretend to be a lesbian couple to gain popularity at their high school. Karma (played by Katie Stevens), the mastermind of it all, wants the attention of the hottest guy in school, Liam Booker (Gregg Sulkin), and so she figures this would be the best way to achieve her goal. Liam then has feelings for her in return but can’t act them out since he knows that Karma is in a relationship. But the real problem is with her best friend Amy (Rita Volk) as she starts to truly fall in love with Karma. She seeks help from Liam’s gay best friend Michael while she figures out whether she’s really pretending or not.
Faking It has definitely drawn much attention since it first aired. The show has been picked up for season two and comes back on September 23 with bigger and more controversial episodes. Especially with what happened in the last episode, you definitely want to know what happens next.
SPOILER ALERT:
Last episode, Amy confessed her love for Karma but is rejected and Liam finds out that they were both just pretending to be a lesbian couple. So Amy is left all alone at her mother’s wedding and Liam ends his relationship with Karma. Amy and Liam both meet after the wedding reception and ended up having angry sex with each other.
Intense, right?
This show will you leave you laughing and frustrated all at the same time, so you better catch up before it returns tomorrow!
