Heartbreak High was in de jaren 90 de beste Highschool serie en dat is het nog steeds. Vergeleken met de Amerikaanse series als Saved By The Bell en Beverly Hills 90210 waar het moraal hoog stond en het totaal anarchistische Fort Alpha bewandelde Heartbreak High de middenweg en was daarom het meest realistisch. Problemen zoals pesten, discriminatie, tienerzwangerschappen, zelfmoordpogingen, psychose etc kwamen aan de orde. Niet alles had een happy ending en dat maakte het zo goed omdat het nou eenmaal in het echt ook zo is. De verhaallijnen waren herkenbaar en de personages ook. De cast is in de loop der jaren flink veranderd maar de kracht van de serie bleef wel overeind tot en met de laatste aflevering. De huidige jeugd moet het met Brugklas en Spangas doen maar die kun je allebei nog niet eens slap aftreksel van Heartbreak High noemen.
Heartbreak High was the best high school series in the 90s and it still is. Compared to the American series such as Saved By The Bell and Beverly Hills 90210 where morale was high and the totally anarchic Fort Alpha, Heartbreak High walked the middle ground and was therefore the most realistic. Problems such as bullying, discrimination, teenage pregnancies, suicide attempts, psychosis etc were discussed. Not everything had a happy ending and that was what made it so good because that's how it is in real life. The storylines were recognizable and so were the characters. The cast has changed a lot over the years, but the strength of the series remained intact until the last episode. Today's youth have to make do with Brugklas and Spangas, but you can't even call them both a weak copy of Heartbreak High.
