[[So Little Time]] was a short-lived [[Sitcom]] starring [[Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen]]. It ran from 2001-2002 on [[ABC Family]]. The show was about two twins, Riley and Chloe, whose parents have seperated but still live very close to each other in Malibu. Their parents had been successful fashion designers before the split, but the father Jake had a midlife crisis and decided to leave for Malibu. They also lived with their housekeeper Manuelo. Most of the show was about the girl's lives, school, boys, wacky situations, and the question of whether their parents would get back together. Think ''[[Sister, Sister]]'' with [[Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen]] instead of Tia and Tamara Mowry.

=== Tropes used by the series: ===
* [[Accidental Kiss]]: In an episode when she accidentally kisses him after they win an award for community service, she walks around in a terrified trance for the rest of the episode, compulsivley repeating, "I didn't do that, I didn't do that, I didn't do that, it never happened. I didn't do that, I didn't do that, I didn't do that, it never happened..."
