Hey, you know what’s an awesome idea? Taking a pretty decent movie and making a crappy kid’s show out of it. Wait. No. That’s a freaking awful idea.

Well, that’s exactly what ABC Family has done. Apparently it wasn’t enough to simply screen classic ’90s teen film 10 Things I Hate About You every day for the last six years or so, now they’ve turned it into a TV show, too.

The show, which is probably a train wreck, premiered last night. I didn’t watch it (although, let’s be honest, I’ll probably illegally download it later), mostly because of the notable lack of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, whose role the casting director filled with this Jewy-looking kid (see above).

I would make a Heath Ledger-rolling-over-in-his-grave joke, but I have more class than that.
