Just finished binging this. It was…a bit much in the beginning and didn’t grab me that much. BUT the characters really grew on me and I was hooked at episode two. I got big Bojack Horseman vibes during the two special episodes. The writing is top-notch.
Jan 9 let's go!!!!!!! https://tvline.com/2021/11/23/euphoria-season-2-trailer-premiere-date-hbo-video/
That Jules and Rue scene at the end of the ep was stunning. The use of Ektochrome was incredible too.
Was happy the show was back last night, but man I forgot 95% of anything that happened in season 1. I cant even remember why Fez doesnt like the the other guy. And I feel like they make this show too much of a nail biter.
One thing about this show that I have a pedantic gripe with is that I refuse to believe that Zoomer teens share the same party rap mix playlists of every 30 something Millennial I ever met. A 17 year old isn't playing the same Snoop Dogg and DMX songs that I ripped from Limewire in 2006. It feels like the music supervisor is a nostalgic 33 year old. I was halfway expecting to hear Three 6, Jeezy, Crime Mob, or The Carter I-III era Wayne next.
Season premiere is one of the best episodes of the series, I'm glad this is back. I hope Lexi and Fez's friendship stays pure And Nate deserved what he got and more
It's silly to the point that they must be aware of it. I mean, season 1 had high schools girls making The Wire references and I'm pretty sure Cassie dressed up as a True Romance character for Halloween lol. It's definitely "a mid-thirties white male writer" taste filtered through teenagers, but it's so obvious that it has to be an intentionally unrealistic choice.
Just watched all of Season 1 for the first time today and I'm just enthralled. Really well done show, especially for a cast so big, dealing with such sensitive subject material. Excited for Season 2!
Yeah i was rewatching some season 1 last night and i got the feeling of "This isn't a show about Zoomers for a Zoomer audience, this a show for a predominantly Millennial audience projecting themselves onto Zoomers" It'd be like if on The O.C the entire cast just made Gen X references all the time and the soundtrack was filled with Pearl Jam. This is why i respect Bo Burnham's choice while writing Eight Grade to consciously not allow himself to project himself or his mid-2000's middle school experience onto a character a generation younger than him.
Just finished the first ep. I'm glad we finally got a happy(?) ending to an episode, but I fear for what's to come.
