I think the main reason this show gets such a bad rating is because of its quintessential gen z narrative which a lot of people do not have the experience for. But it is so gen z that when i watch it i can literally see people that i know of within these characters. Teen drama has truly come a long way. So beautiful.
It's not the best show tv show out there but I certainly wouldn't say it's deserving of so many angry 1 star reviews. While I would agree with other reviewers' complaints about the lack of character depth/development, I don't find the characters completely unlikeable.
I've seen 3 episodes and so far it's been somewhat entertaining; not great but far more interesting than most of the dumpster fire tv shows these days *cough* Love Island *cough*. I would agree that the plot is pretty thin so far, and sure, it seems that the creators are perhaps trying a little too hard to be "edgy", but it has held my interest.
In summary, if you're looking for a relatively harmless mediocre teen drama, this show should do just fine.

I honestly have no idea how this show has some bad reviews, it was great from start to finish. It's realistic and has proper representation. I can't wait for season two!
I enjoy this series and I am 72. It is not perfect, it is boring in places and it has many dark themes.
When it comes to learning about life, love and living, all teens struggle to learn their identity and where they "fit in," if at all. The only differences between my friends in high school and those you see in this series, is the music, hair styles, Instagram and their ability to actually be themselves, instead of trying to live up to their parent's expectations. In that respect, this series is refreshing.
To prove to you that I am 72, to the director: "If you insist on showing us texting on cell phones, please try to hold the camera steady!" :-)

This series started off really good, with interesting characters and stories. The stories of the different teenagers we're all really interesting to follow. But it lacked consistency, especially towards the end. About halfway through it got kind of messy and it was getting harder to understand the characters' actions.
