MTV’s charming teen comedy returns this Tuesday at 10/9c with a new outlook: Now that Jenna and Matty are officially an item – hooray! — they’ll have to figure out how to make a real relationship work, which is no easy task. Meanwhile, Jenna goes from trying to sort out who’s in her heart to who she wants to be and gets a little darker in the process.

And don’t worry, all your supporting faves like Sadie, Ming and the Asian mafia are there, too — and now there’s more time to give them their due.
