What was this soap? Heartbreak High?

This is driving me nuts!
It was Australian I think (or American?)
Mid nineties

All I can remember is all these teens living in tents in a big building. Two floors. There was a club or bar or something too.

I’ve googled and it might be Heartbreak High, but I’m not 100% because I can’t find mention of the tents. I could be dreaming up that bit of course. Help!

Was it the tribe? Post apocalyptic all the adults had been wiped out by a virus and the kids formed tribes. The mall rats lived in the mall? Loads of crazy makeup.

I rewatched loads of it on you tube web heavily pregnant and had raging insomnia

I vaguely remember Heartbreak High and don't recall any tents.

Heartbreak high Grin, I had forgotten about that! I don’t recall any tents in it either so don’t think it was that (although I didn’t watch all episodes).

MrMeSeeks · 19/08/2019 21:33

Nope, not heartbreak high.
Are you sure they were in tents?

TitianaTitsling · 19/08/2019 21:33

Definitely no tents in HBH but thanks for the fantastic reminder of it and of the Tribe!!

wildthingsinthenight · 19/08/2019 21:34

Drazik...Smile Oh I loved him.

I think it is HH

MrMeSeeks · 19/08/2019 21:34

I certainly don't recalls tents and ive watched it recently Confused

MrMeSeeks · 19/08/2019 21:34

Drazik...smile Oh I loved him.

BillStickersIsInnocent · 19/08/2019 21:37

@MrMeSeeks no not sure it was tents.

Definitely about 10 girls and boys in one building, not separate rooms but separate shacks/curtained areas/tents/huts.

Heartbreak High... forgot all about that programme, it was so good

Etino · 19/08/2019 21:38

Was it set in New Zealand? Don’t remember tents but it certainly had that vibe- lots of unlooked after teenagers.

BillStickersIsInnocent · 19/08/2019 21:39

The Tribe was set in NZ (just been googling to see whether it had tents!)

The one I remember was quite surfy I think so could be NZ or Aus or California

DukeOfEarlGrey · 19/08/2019 22:32

In Heartbreak High they lived in a warehouse...

FuchsiaG · 19/08/2019 22:49

Heartbreak High is on Amazon Prime Grin

TooStressyTooMessy · 19/08/2019 23:01

Fuchsia, I’ve just added it to my watch list Grin.

DrFoxtrot · 19/08/2019 23:21

Yes, Heartbreak High had a warehouse type thing in it.

DrFoxtrot · 19/08/2019 23:22

Possibly with tent like materials and curtains Grin.

Pleaser256 · 19/08/2019 23:50

It was a warehouse but had lots of them living there and for privacy I think they did have tent type sheets over the bedroom “quarters”

MrMeSeeks · 20/08/2019 01:48

Hbh had 4/5 kids each season living in a warehouse ( and a car in the warehouse).
They had a beach, obv few surfing scenes.
Was it def australian?

MrMeSeeks · 20/08/2019 02:00

Was it blue water high? That was about a bunch of surfer kids all living together in a large building

SallyCinnamon3009 · 20/08/2019 06:38

There was an episode of My So Called Life where Ricky got kicked out by his uncle. He ended up on a warehouse with loads of homeless teenagers although can't remember if any were in tents. It's probably my fave episode of MSCL. It was round Christmas time.

Not sure if that's any help but My So Called Life was the first proper teen drama before things like Dawson's Creek and One Tree Hill etc. It had Claire Danes and Jared Leto in it.

Dizzywizz · 20/08/2019 11:33

Omg I loved my so called life @SallyCinnamon3009!
