I lost track of GG around season 4, and didn't like it enough when I checked back in to start watching regularly again. But up through season 3 is definitely brilliant. It has some high school situations, but (a) isn't really about that per se, and (b) the school in question is an extremely competitive private prep, so what high school stuff there is doesn't really fall into the "typical" TV high school category.
As far as your list, I can't think of any examples of 2, but you'll get 1, 3 and 4 in truckloads. Especially 3. This is the show whose creator said "Your audience is as smart as you allow them to be," and her show lives up to it.
