Everything Sucks!

Being that I was born in the 80's I can appropriately say this show sparked that flame of childhood reminiscence the right way. A good majority of our generation grew up with one parent in the house hold and this show managed to capture the trials and tribulations of that in two different aspects. Also being that High school is typically either one of the most cherished or hated times in a person's life the transition of turning into an adult all while dealing with your emotions, relationships, puberty and sexuality deems that the title "Everything Sucks!" being fairly true at this age. ES! managed to encapsulate all that while growing up in a extremely small town very well. We all miss the 90's, I'm just glad there are shows like this to at least make us feel like this time has yet to and will not be forgotten.

When I first began watching this show I wasn't sure what to expect from it. I did initially feel that they were constantly reminding the audience that the show took place in the 90's and found that a little too on the nose. BUT as the story developed and evolved, I fell absolutely in love with this show for it's nostalgia and for everyone of these characters. All I can say now is PLEASE NETFLIX...give me more!

Was expecting a mediocre sitcom with lots of nostalgia and what I got was a masterpiece. A one-camera dramedy with excellent cast, great performances and the necessary nostalgia in all the right doses.

Teens played mostly by real teens (hope this becomes the new normal) with performances that professionals will envy.

Don't miss this, even if you weren't a teenager at 90s. It's one of the best shows around

This show was really great. It has a lot of charm. The cast was wonderful. This show brings me back to a great time in my life. It has a lot of potential.

With a title like this you expect it to be about a bunch of disaffected and angry kids living in a world with clueless and mean adults But actually the kids in this story are nerdy and different, but pretty good kids after all. And the adults are pretty real too. One of the story lines is the lead female character (with great acting by Peyton Kennedy) discovering that she may be gay. I wouldn't call it the biggest plot of the show, but it's an important aspect. There are many storylines - the lead male (Jahi Di'Allo Winston) is dealing with his runaway dad. Both of these kids come from single parent homes and the parents also have an important plot line. Not to mention the big project that brings together the AV nerds and Drama kings and queens.

If I had one complaint it's with the character Emaline. She flits from persona to persona that you never really know who she is. I think she is written as a foil to enable the other characters' stories, but she doesn't really have a story of her own. Also the ensemble of backing teen characters are pretty stock.

If you can get past the first couple of episodes annoyingness, it turns into a pleasant coming of age story with plenty of tearjerker moments along the way. Thumbs up.
