On Faking It, a pair of best friends — Karma Ashcroft (Katie Stevens) and Amy Raudenfeld (Rita Volk) — are outed when some of their high school classmates mistakenly believe they’re a lesbian couple. Their popularity soars so they decide to go along with it. Karma attracts the attention of a handsome boy (Gregg Sulkin) while Amy starts to develop feelings for her friend. Others in the cast include Bailey De Young, Yvette Monreal, Keith Powers, and Michael Willett.

I meant faking it stupid auto correct.
I think that taking should get renewed it is really a great show I love all the characters and I am a big fan.

FAKING IT NEEDS TO BE RENEWED. It’s a ground-breaking show, and it’s doing amazing things for LGBTQ representation. I know ratings haven’t been very good, but we have a hardcore fan base, and it has been working its ass off, trying to boost ratings, trending on Twitter… Please give us a season 3B.
