Season 2

Awkward. is an American comedy-drama television series developed by Lauren Iungerich based around social outcast Jenna Hamilton who, following an accident that rumours misconstrue as a suicide attempt, starts being noticed by all the students at her school.

The series premiered in the USA on MTV on 19 July, 2011.

Awkward. premiered in South Africa on DStv's MTV channel on Sunday 4 September 2011, at 17h00. See Seasons below for seasonal broadcast dates and times.

Season 2 aired on MTV from 21 September to 7 December, 2012, on Fridays at 20h00. New episodes broadcast weekly. There are 12 episodes in the second season.

Synopsis

This series takes an irreverent look at the conflict, chaos and humor that defines teenage life through the eyes of 15-year-old Jenna Hamilton, whose life begins to change when a simple accident becomes an epic misunderstanding and is blown way out of proportion.

Narrated in the first-person voice of Jenna's blog posts, Awkward. captures the humour within the struggles and experiences everyone can relate to from their formative years.

The series picks up in the aftermath of the accident as she must deal with a new not-so-fun stigma, while at the same time managing the other daily drama that comes with being a teenager.

From a secret relationship with a popular guy, to being undermined by a mean girl, and parents who just don't get it - Jenna's misfortune will eventually serve as the catalyst for amazing change, but it's not without some missteps and mishaps along the way.

Awkward was created by Lauren Iungerich. Iungerich and Erin Ehrlich serve as executive producers.
