Earlier this month it was reported that MTV's show "Faking It" would reveal that one of the characters is intersex -- a groundbreaking moment for mainstream television.

Though the fictional high school Faking It presents is a far cry from the stereotypical schools of pop culture — jocks and cheerleaders on top, with kids subjected to bullying for being different —Covington says that his vision of high school is just an exaggerated version of reality, not a fairy tale. Covington notes that, until Faking It , he had no particular desire to revisit high school creatively after working on Greek and 10 Things I Hate About You.

But also he knows that the MTV audience is picky and tough to impress. Write to Lily Rothman at lily. By Lily Rothman.
