The new "Awkward" episodes feel too crowd-sourced for my liking, but there's a strong chance that means that the crowd will embrace them.Free Download Video Awkward.

Full Episode Watch Stream HD Video on Internet TV.On every imaginable level, Lauren Iungerich's comedy was ragged around the edges and that was part of its charm. Early storylines were without-a-net daring and the dialogue was laden with "Throw against the wall and see what sticks" jargon and neologisms. The performances were relaxed and natural and the production values weren't especially high, which all contributed to the appeal. Very few critics bothered to review those early episodes and that was OK, because MTV didn't have a clue what to do with "Awkward," burying it at 11 p.m. after airings of "Teen Mom," which was both a hilariously incompatible lead-in, but also the best the network could do under the circumstances.
In my review of "Awkward," I described it as a "proudly lewd and rude and big-hearted comedy." I gave "Awkward" a B-minus, but it was a fairly positive B-minus, as such things go and the write-up spoke of a fresh show with ample potential for growth and maturation.
"Awkward" returns to MTV on Thursday (June 28) night in a slightly more amenable 10:30 time slot and with a good deal more promotion and press.
And, having seen the first two episodes of the new season, I can confirm that "Awkward" is, indeed, growing and maturing.
You'll notice, though, that the B-minus grade remains unchanged. It's still a positive B-minus, reflecting the copious amounts of talent and potential on display here. I'd still recommend the show and I'd strongly emphasize how "Awkward" is very close to doing the thing that I mentioned last week has been so seemingly impossible for ABC Family and The CW:
It's a comedy that aims at young female viewers, is welcoming to older viewers of both sexes and actually manages to be funny.
Two plots propelled the first season. Would Jenna choose Jake (Brett Davern), the nice guy, or Matty (Beau Mirchoff), the bad boy? And who wrote that mean letter?
In the season finale, we learned that the letter came from Jenna's own mother (Nikki Deloach). Season 2 finds our heroine still pondering what she should do with that knowledge. Should she tell? Share it with anyone, even her father?
On the guy front, she's also confused. Jake, whom she chose last season, wants to be online official (i.e. change her Facebook status), but she finds herself oddly reluctant. Meanwhile, alluring Matty wants to start fresh.
Hey, at least she has a date for New Year's Eve. And for better or worse, somebody is reading, and commenting on, her blog -- a little mystery for the new season.
But New Jenna, as she calls herself, seems strikingly more together than the Jenna I loved last year, and I kind of miss her klutzy chaos. She even looks a bit too polished. Go ahead, girl -- grow up. Get it together. But keep it real.
Jenna Hamilton is a 15-year-old girl who returns to school after finding herself the center of attention because of an embarrassing accident that left her with a broken arm, which is misconstrued as something more serious.
