    It’s defo interesting, some great acting and aesthetics, just often poorly/chaotically written, tries to be too many things at once, and you have a bunch 26 year olds playing 17 year olds having cocaine and hardcore sex which a lot of people find weird. It’s good slop though, I had fun watching. When it’s not being teen drama slop the addiction stuff and Zendaya’s acting is pretty captivating. s1 was better. Audience is mostly very young

      I just saw people saying the Hunter Schafer episode was really nuanced trans rep, which intrigued me. Doesn’t sound like my thing. Seems like a 13 Reasons Why style show.

        You can prolly watch that special without seeing the rest of the show? Maybe watch some Jules Euphoria clips on youtube for context, but it’s a therapy session so I think she explains a good amount of lore if I remember correctly
