I think part of the reason the side characters in this are just not as likable (besides Hayden and Brett just shining too bright) is that they aren’t particularly good friends to our main characters? Like Hayden’s friends aren’t particularly good to Hayden, and Brett’s friends are not particularly good to Brett either. The only person I feel like hasn’t given “bad friend” vibes is the quarterback on Brett’s team. Like I get Scott is trying but….everything he does is pretty related to his self interest.
