Is It Any Good?
For a site centered on the strong bond between friends, BFF.TV feels disconnected and disjointed. It features a few friend-focused areas such as the quiz show and BFF bracelet, but it’s simultaneously full of frothy gossip, celebrities, and music clips. Pictures of pop stars and miscellaneous fashion photos may pull in the teens and tweens, and the quiz show is interesting and fun fare. Still, there’s little to keep them there for long. While the BFF bracelet is a fitting, fashionable way to celebrate friendships, using it to connect teens to military personnel they don’t know feels forced.
