Heartbreak High

It's good but not as good as the original. Although you do see a original cast member in a couple scenes I wish you saw much more of him and other original cast members as that's what I think it's missing.

It needs some of the old heartbreak high with a few more original cast members and the same flare added to the modern spin if it had that it would be perfect. It lacks certain things the original had. All together the show is ok but it really just needs some more of the original series added into it to make it better.

I must say I love the fact we see rivers but we need a whole life more of him.

Synopsis ¨Heartbreak 22¨ follows a almost identical format to the original series, but very current and updated.

Analysis: reboots generally are interesting. The tap into a brand, with a dedicated fanbase they can be tricky when it comes to the reactions of old fans. Personally as a 84 born kid I really wanted to like it, but there was a bit of concern. After watching the first two episodes it's easy to admit how well it is done. Realistic, fun and captures the spirit of Heartbreak High very well.

The great thing about the series though is that is it just as relatable a the originals. One warning the 3rd and 4th episode are really not great, they go into an Americanized format of a high school drama and bank only on the sex. Don't worry after a de-tour around the 5th episodes it pick up again.

Story: all the dramas and shananigans that teenagers go through during the high school

Dialogue: 10/10 fantastic Costume / Decor: 10/10 as realistic as can be

Anything else: very excited to see to series unfold as it is going. And I hope this series with catch on with a whole new generation. Coz that is where the real success is measured.

Amazing show, funny, emotional, great three-dimensional characters that highlight just how diverse the Australian population is. More realistic than Euphoria, think it will definitely appeal to fans of Sex Education (but not as graphic so okay for younger teens ~15). Really captured the experience of growing up in Australia. The casting was amazing, and the diversity in the cast really let the writers explore so many different Aussie experiences, especially loved seeing the Aboriginal representation actually done well. Great Aussie music too (The Divinyls, and strawberry kisses were fun throwbacks), will be devo'd if this isn't renewed ;) want season 2 asap.

I expected this to be another one of those poorly produced Netflix dramas that try to seem relatable to teenagers, but miserably fail at it. But I was surprised in many ways. Sure, it's still a pretty unrealistic portrayal of teenagers, but it had some nice parts. There are a variety of different stories in this series, some of them are pretty interesting. The characters themselves very interesting as well. The acting was surprisingly good too. Some of the comedy fell a little short and won't probably work in a few years, but nothing too bad. Sometimes I think the series was even making fun of today's teenage culture. I wish it had leaned more towards that, because it would have been a more interesting take. All in all: a good binge watch!

I have never seen an accurate representation of myself in any serie. Quinni was the first autistic girl I have seen accurately portrayed how it feels to be afab and autistic. Not the classic white boys like sheldon and sherlock. And to top it off, Quinni was actually played by an autistic actor! I finally felt really understood.

Not to even talk about the lgbt+ representation. For once one of the main characters was an amab nonbinary person of colour. I loved how diverse this cast and characters was.

I would definitely recommend you watch this series if you want to see yourself represented. I'm sure at least one of the characters are relatable for you.
