Heathers: Escuela de jóvenes asesinos

It is honestly not as bad as I thought it would be based on the trailer! Though yes I have only seen the one episode but I found it comical and it made new modern commentary.

As I'm writing this review I have watched only the first episode and I have to say that while I understand all the hate it has received, I believe that it's a little to early to judge it so harshly. Of course it doesn't come even close to the quality of Heathers (1988) but that was to be expected. So I saw this episode with the mindset that I will see Heathers done in an alternate reality ,to enjoy the new paths they are taking the story to, and I actually had fun, since I didn't expect the twists in the end. All the forced references they put in there, I believe it was to put them out of the way so after that they make their own unique story of Heathers. In my opinion this could be this summer's new trashy teen show that we can watch for fun like Scream Queens and Scream two years back, but I believe this has the potential to to be even better than those two shows.

In conclusion I believe if you enjoyed Scream or Scream Queens , you should give Heathers a chance. Definitely don't expect anything thought provoking or something as clever as Heathers but Heathers could be a fun time.

It's about offensively sterotypical characters in cliché yet absurd situations where the show keeps switching between taking itself way too seriously vs. feeling like a parody. The characters either give spontaneous pseudo-intellectual speeches or speak exclusively in one-liners. It isn't clear to me why anyone would want to tell a story this way, the writing is just weird. With that being said, I actually find this series entertaining and enjoyable, apart from those moments (you'll know) where I can't help but roll my eyes.

What would be the point to make another show with popular skinny fashionable girls, jocks who date them and nerds? It's a different world and a new generation is here. Millennials. Everything is about social media fame and the correct minority to be part of. Heathers criticizes our modern era. Kardashians are the modern philosophers, a dog is cuter than a baby, everything you say is offensive, your worth is your followers and the likes your reward. And don't forget. Your are perfect, no improvement necessary. I only hope the rest of the season stays true to the pilot.

Ive seen episodes 1-6 even though Paramount got scared and pulled the series. Costing the entire cast and crew work. Its a smart, funny contained retelling of the wonderful movie we grew up loving. This done in tv form guves characters time to develop ublike most movies. Its has a sarcastic tone. The people at Paramount know this. Yet they also know most of society is too stupid to see it. They knew the fake outrage mobs woukd be causing troubles so they pulled it. Hopefully it airs here in the US. If not the internet is wide open.
