I was less ready than I expected to see Asa Butterfield attempting masturbation and talking about sex.
WASN'T HE A KID?!
Ps: Loving the show.
This is definitely getting a second season and I'm all up for it. The cinematography is gorgeous and the soundtrack fits perfectly with its themes. It addresses important topics that should be discussed amongst teenagers in such a natural, easy way.
The whole cast does a great job. I'll never get tired of saying that Asa Butterfield is a fantastic actor and deserves to get more recognition urgently.
Pretty much a perfect miniseries. Intriguing characters and overall story with amazing actors, great cinematography and an absolutely fantastic soundtrack.
After Season 2:
I was really worried that this season might be shit but it actually turned out great. It's IMO as good if not better than S1 (although quite a bit less funnier and even more depressing at times) and it provides a lot happier ending for the characters which is nice. It also deals with the psychological aftermath of S1 really well.
But the best thing in the show still was the soundtrack. It somehow got even better than S1.
The jabs at Venezuela were brilliant.
"It's just a flying saucer, Ed. We gotta go." lol, Peggy kills me.
What the flying fuck just happened?
All episode numbers are wrong!
Truly a masterpiece of Argentinian television, and I'd dare to say television in general.
Fantastic show. The writing is on point and the acting is great. Wish there were more episodes but I am happy that it was not canceled.
Pretty goddamn hilarious. All of the jokes are on point. Comedy shows don't get better than this
im a simple woman i see jonathan groff in the trailer, i watch the whole thing
This season leans a bit too heavily on goofiness, and high school clichés, to generate its comedy—sometimes at the story's detriment. The drop in quality isn't too big, but the actors are doing a lot of the heavy lifting this time around.
I knew that at one time or another I would start to hate this Isaac for real.
Ola saying "I love you, dude. I love you like a friend." to Adam was so weird. Two episodes ago she had to point out that she's his coworker from the picture. She's the new kid but suddenly she has deep connections with the people around her? I have 13 Reasons Why flashbacks...
I do think it's problematic that Adam used to be Eric's bully and Adam does need a lot of development and learning how to talk about things, but I think I like him more with Eric than Rahim. Rahim seems so... emotionless? Kind of similar to Ola. Ola is nearly always happy and careless and smiley, and Rahim is always emotionless and matter-of-fact. Eric is so loud, bubbly and extrovert that I'm surprised both of his love interests are so the opposite of him. But I feel like Adam could be louder and more open if he actually came out of his shell. We already saw him laughing a few times with Eric and I would like to explore that tbh.
At first I was a bit annoyed that we're at the same endpoint as season 1, but then I realized that Adam's now out of the closet, so hopefully season 3 will move forward with that. (And I desperately need more happy scenes with Adam because my heart hurts watching him.)
The ending with Maeve/Otis/Isaac just annoyed me. I don't really need Maeve and Otis together, but that was such a cheap twist. It felt so forced to keep them apart even longer now, ugh. If they at least decided to stay friends or something, but this was literally "person A confesses feelings but person B never got the message" trope bullshit. Writers need to remember that you can have the main characters be together and still continue the damn story.
I enjoyed this season, but there was too much love triangle and "will they, won't they" stuff. Jean/Jakob/Remi, Ola/Otis/Maeve, Eric/Adam/Rahim, Ola/Lily drama for a few episodes. And Viv has feelings for Jackson now which I hope won't be too problematic. I would like to see more platonic friendship scenes, therapy scenes or whatever. Not everything needs to be love drama. I feel like it wasn't that much and forced in season 1.
How did Ruby go from being a shallow mean b... to being someone who deserves better? Now THAT'S character development.
And Blur closing the episode. Ugh. chef kiss
This is truly a well put show. And one where there is no forced sexuality or race or gender. Everything feels pretty natural and real life-like. I have liked characters that if they were "forced" in other setting (which is something that Netflix specially tends to do), they would probably won't work for me. Eric still keeps being amazing and his relation with Otis feels very genuine (although i think he wasn't in his best behaviour this season). Adam's character keeps developing even more, and the actor was able to really capture this evolution (from a "no-emotion" bulk bully to a guy that feels confident enough to say "i'm pretty"). I think the next season should be the last one before it gets stretch too much. This end-season wasn't bad at all if it were a finale, but i really wouldn't mind to see a new one. The story is so wide that keeps you hooked enough to want more. Cheers to Netflix for this one
Brilliant season. Oh, and Bark Wahlberg :joy:.
Almost a bit too dragging for me. I loved the ending shots though!
i wanted to see more of maddy beating the shit out of cassie, not elliot singing
why are we still watching this, as a society?
Few more 'known' faces than last season. Hope that s2 doesn't feel like cameo central. Also Amy Schumer? No fucking thank you.
Tina was great ofc but as another commenter said there's something missing in the dialogue snappiness. Hopefully it's just first ep jitters
something warm and fuzzy to pull you up when you are feeling down.
the most adorable show ever. have binge watched it like a million times and still cant get enough. so wholesome and lovable. the story, characters and everything. along with being topical about issues surrounding lgbtq+ representation it gives us all the feels. 10/10 recommend :tone3:
First off the acting was so perfect holy shit the talent. Also this movie was designed to milk my tear ducts like udders, omg what a heart warming, endearing, lovely story.
IF SEROTONIN WAS A SHOW IT WOULD BE THIS
This lowkey feels like a filler episode. The tease about Carlos from the end of the last episode leads to nothing more than a line about how whatever his plan was didn't work. The reveal at the end is the only real interesting part of the episode and even then, it seems weird that they even hid it for so long.
