I saw some of it after the Olympics last night but I got tired and went to bed. It seemed okay from what I'd seen.

I like David Walton, but everything he's in flops. Not sure how he still gets roles.

The boy is quite good, too. He was in 1600 Penn ... which also flopped.

Good luck, then.

i liked the boy ive only seen like 5 or 10 minuets of it and at the end but I can relate to him a lot. I have not seen the movie but I am intrieged although I wonder if this will be like glee where I was only really interested in Kurt, Blaine and Becky In particular becky and sue and the scenes that involve kurt being bullied.

I keep seeing an ad for it on the backs of some of the magazines at the grocery store I work at, and whenever I see it it reminds me of the Nirvana song "About a Girl". Seeing as there's a character named Kurt in the movie, I wouldn't be surprised if the connection was intentional.

The film and book are among my favourites, but I hadn't known that they were bringing out a TV series.

How does any of this connect to autism?

Autism Discussion forum?

I never saw the film but saw ads for the show. Doesn't seem the guy or the kid are autistic.

I've seen the original version and I like it very much.
