I’ve watched this show twice in two days: it’s amazing. The cast are incredible and actually look like real teenagers which makes it way more relatable. The LGBTQ+ rep was so well done as a lot of the time it can feel forced or weirdly stereotypical, but in this case it was just a young couple who understood and loved one another. The way Simon stood his ground and didn’t just submit to Wilhelm was so in character and I’m glad they stayed true to that rather than forcing him to accept Wille back.
If (and I really hope there is) a season 2 it would be great to see more of Rosh and Ayub as well as Wille possibly standing up for him and Simon.
Also I think they’ve left the door open for August to undergo various storylines as his education has been paid for he can remain at Hillerska. However will he be isolated? Will Wille reveal that it was him that leaked the video? I think alongside this the screenwriters could also explore his possible mental health issues perhaps including eating disorders. With the sheer amount he exercises and his constant body image issues having been seen in the first season.
All in all I would definitely recommend this show. 10/10.
