Sugar Rush | comment |
Sugar Rush is a critically acclaimed British television comedy drama series developed by Shine Limited and broadcast by Channel 4, based on the Julie Burchill novel of the same name. It is centred around the life of 15 year old lesbian Kim Daniels who, at the beginning of the first season, moves from London to Brighton, where she meets future best friend and love interest Maria "Sugar" Sweet, a rebellious, promiscuous, binge-drinking, drug-taking, shoplifting, street-smart young girl of Kim's age. Kim becomes sexually obsessed with Sugar, and the show's first season centres around Kim struggling with her sexuality and her feelings for Sugar, while at the same time trying to deal with her dysfunctional family (parents Nathan and Stella, and her younger brother, Matt) and the unwanted advances of her next-door neighbour, Tom. The second season shows Kim as out and proud, but with a new love interest, Saint, after having gotten over her obsession with Sugar (the two are, however, still best friends), and, as always, dealing with her parents and younger brother.The first series was broadcast in 2005 on Channel 4. The second series was broadcast on Channel 4 on 15 June 2006, and the last episode was aired on 17 August 2006 on Channel 4, and on 10 August 2006 on digital channel E4.A third season was rumoured, but it ultimately seems that it will never see the light of day, due to Channel 4's cancellation of the show. This move outraged viewers and critics, as well as the show's two stars, Olivia Hallinan and Lenora Crichlow.Not to be confused with the Disney animated film Wreck-It Ralph, which was released under the title Sugar Rush in Japan, or the Fictional Video Game from the film that provided that title. | |

Kissing Under the Influence: Sort of. When Kim and Sugar kiss in the nightclub, they are both high on Ecstasy. However, while Kim has clearly wanted it all along, Sugar is merely using the kiss to attract a boy whom she later ends up kissing, to Kim's devastation. | |

Plot Hole | |
Sugar Rush / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Plot Hole: At the end of the second season, Stella reveals that she is pregnant, and, although uncertain, she thinks that Nathan may be the father, as he is the only one allowed to not use a condom (the couple are swingers). However, in the first season, Stella claims that Nathan has had a vasectomy. While it is, in rare cases, possible for those who have "had the snip" to get someone pregnant, you'd think that the show would address Nathan's vasectomy during the pregnancy storyline. Unless, of course, Stella was lying about the "snip", for some reason. | |

Meaningful Name: Saint. A lot of Season 2 can be summed up as "Kim does something stupid, but Saint forgives her anyway. Repeat." The funny thing is that, in the book, Saint was a snobby bitch who was only nicknamed Saint for sheer irony. | |

Lousy Lovers Are Losers: Invoked when Kim has to convince Guillaume to go on a second date with Sugar. She first tries to appeal to him emotionally, but he's too much of a jerk to care. What does work is telling him he didn't manage to give Sugar an orgasm (which isn't true) and if he doesn't go she will forever think he's crap in bed. He's horrified at the prospect and agrees to see her again. | |

In spite of the whole thing making her uncomfortable, she attends due to being so desperate to get over Sugar. Ironically, she ends up falling for a girl called Beth whilst there, and it later turns out that Beth was only attending the meetings in the first place just so she could pull someone. | |

Mood Whiplash: The last few minutes of Episode 9 of the first season, and the first half of the following episode. During a relatively pleasant, loved-up episode which features Kim seeing a girl called Beth, and then going to meet her for a date near the end of the episode, she suddenly receives a phone call... from a frightened, crying Sugar, covered in blood. In the next episode, it turns out that Sugar stabbed someone. Who saw that coming? | |

By the second season, however, he is considerably less bizarre, most likely due to him maturing. | |

Sugar Rush / int_faa71569 | comment |
Romantic False Lead: Saint qualifies as the more sympathetic version of the false lead. Although Sugar insists she isn't interested in Kim, her instant dislike of Saint and near continuous efforts to sabotage the relationship — one time she claims Saint came on to her, another she robs her shop — suggest otherwise. If it had continued for another series these issues might have been resolved, but alas... Another example would be Beth from the first season. | |
