“It’s senior year, so it’s pretty much everything you can expect between guy drama and senior stuff that happens,” Reed says. “This season is kind of getting back to its funny place. I think last year we kind of took a turn for this darker place, we dealt with a lot more serious issues, so we’re doing some really fun stuff, some really funny stuff that just involves senior type of activities.”

“And of course,” she added, “all of our awkward drama and boys without shirts on.”
