Plot:
IT'S A BOY GIRL THING is a hilarious body-swap comedy in the style of BIG and 13 GOING ON 30 and is the story of Nell and Woody; teen rivals that love nothing more than to hate one another. Enemies in school, and next-door neighbours at home, the pair inexplicably wake one morning to find they have swapped bodies. At first, they're disturbed by the occurrence, but with a little thought, it's not long before they're in school and tarnishing each others' reputations. Devoting so much time and attention to each other has never been as much fun for Nell and Woody, and they soon discover that love can stem from the strangest of plantings.

An OK film. The body-swapping has been done much better in the past. The actors are not all that good at portaying being the different sex. As a matter of fact there were not all that good portraying their characters in their own bodies. I thought that the girl was behaving much more naturally, while the boy was inside of her.
It is your average teen rom-com. Nothing more, nothing less.

This two-parter picks up on the story of Fraser's ladyfriend whom he mentioned earlier in the season. This is a more dramatic episode. The only real comic relief here is Fraser's dad ("What happened to your hat?" )
