I have no real understanding of American politics, and I cant speak to how they handled it within the show- however there are other topics I can speak on. Also, Netflix and Hollywood & to whom else this may concern- please stop casting nearly-thirty year olds as teenagers! I began watching this thinking this was about young adults in college. No doubt these actors are talented, but please! at least make the casting believable. The openness with how they approached sexuality on this show was amazing. It was so casual, and the characters weren't defined by their sexuality. It was very refreshing. I will say, the interactions and how these characters were, were utterly ridiculous and I personally, couldn't help but imagine this all, an out of reality world. And finally, a HUGE trigger warning for suicide for anyone reading my review before watching the show. I definitely find myself wishing I had read reviews and taken warnings seriously.

i wish i liked this show, but i couldn’t get past 8 episodes. none of the characters were relatable, there was often very cringey jokes and moments, and maybe that was just me, which is totally fair. the actors are gorgeous, and it was groovy to see the diversity. but i found the main characters to be insufferable and inconsistent- or atleast, very disappointing. i could have lived without watching this

I watched the first season through, purely because the actor for niccolo is gorgeous. contrary to some, i don't think this show romanticises prostitution and student-teacher relationships. It took me four episodes to realise it was about a child prostitution ring, but i was multitasking so that might be on me. I dont see the necessity for them to have had a double life, and i just didnt see the motivation for a lot of characters actions. but that might just be me

First season was great! I loved it back in the day when it came out. I find the humour to be dated and ive grown out of it since then, but the plot and premise was great and it will always hold a place in my heart. I watched half of the first episode of season 2 but i couldn't get through it. bonus points for having neon trees on the soundtrack

I did thoroughly enjoy this show, and watched it twice. I think of this as a thriller for those who aren't too into thrillers. It had a gritty take on underage relationships, trauma, unrequited LGBT romance, ED, cheating and complicated and toxic female friendships. It's not for everyone, i did feel that if you didn't enjoy the first episode, you wouldn't enjoy the whole show. Had a great small twist at the end that caught me off guard. But if you're looking for something light, and comedic, this isn't the show.
