Euphoria On Hbo

[hookuphotti]

While I love this show and all the nudity, who else thinks the show should have been set in college at least? I guess I'm just old now and I was in high school like 11 years ago but I just can't imagine high school kids being this good at sex, good at beating the fuck out of people, good at being conniving, being addicted to drugs in high school. While I believe there are exceptions to high schools but what are th odds that this one group of high school kids are all of these at once together. College is where you kinda have that crazy sexual and drug experience, so I wish they just upped the age a bit.

I think when Nate beat up that guy for fucking Maddy really took me out of my element. He had legit Christian Bake American Psycho vibes and I can't imagine a 16-17 year old being that premeditated in revenge and being THAT good in premeditated revenge.

Hahah yea but I think if it was college it wouldnt have the same impact. You feel a little for Rue because she is so young. They’re making all these dumb decisions because they are so young. If they were in college like a year from where they are now probably like McCay is. It would be predictable and expected and not the same impact as seeing Nate walk through highschool halls in handcuffs and them having a PSA in class for Maddie.

I do feel though that the older ppl that wrote it probably made it a little too trendy at times with over doing vapes and house parties to be relateable.

I agree, especially the rehab portion. I don’t know any teenager that lives in middle or lower class America that enters treatment without a court order, it usually takes an adult who has rock bottomed in their 20’s or later to feel that they have had enough of their addiction and have lost either a job, car,house,marriage before finding rehab to be a solution, a teenager isn’t mature enough to realize that their drug of choose is the reason why everything has fallen apart, but as a young minded person believing that their drug is still their escape. As far as sexuality goes, their are some freaky ass teenagers out there, they start young, especially now in an age where sex tapes and nudity are glorified. I agree with Nate, he is too young to be beating up and outsmarting some 20 something year old, how dumb is Tyler?? And to get him to confess to a crime and cover up his shit, how does a grown man allow a child to do this to him?? I would laugh if a teenager tried to one, beat me up in my own home (get a gun and plead self defense) and two, call the cops yourself, especially after the first attack, if he was beaten up, he could file breaking and entering, burglary charges and attempted murder for how badly he was beaten, he could have gotten Nate into more legal trouble than his own black mailing charge of statutory rape which he could have easily fought given they had an entire damn audience while as they fucked in the pool in front of hundreds of people....he could have said she came in to him and didn’t disclose her age which was true!

It would still be impactful if it were upped to college age, because the subject matter would be more realistic and relatable, those are the years that young adults really struggle with their demons and addictions, if they are going to have them.

I guess agree to disagree.

Did you guys hear Gossip Girl reboot will be on HBO thats going to be interesting and probably the same thing but set in NYC instead of Florida lol.

Wait what....they are rebooting gossip girl!??? Why? Is it a remake of that will cast different actors?! For the same characters? Or bring back some of the actors that portrayed the original characters? Or will it have new characters? Is it more of a spinoff? And why so soon to reboot this franchise? The only thing that makes sense is that it’s in hbo because their was so much sex on the original show for a teen network like The Cw

What makes this show so amazing is that’s it’s so relatable. This is exactly what is happenin

Nahhh man this is exactly what’s going on in high school. Now days 16 years old are having sex, smoking weed, doing coke like it’s normal. Every teenager thinks they are hard cunts.
This show captures it perfectly

at least that’s the situation here in Australia

Omg me too!! People in my high school were totally not like that, we were all calmed and easy going, sometimes it bothers me that tv shows take things out of proportions

 

[hookuphotti]

I didnt have this much social media in highschool. I also didnt have e-boys and e-girls and molly wasnt a thing for me either lol it wasnt trendy to be an instagram baddie back in my days lol and nudes werent really a thing either to spread now that i think about it.

Teens suck now tbh.

 

[poutine4]

I think it's relatively accurate to be honest. I went to high school just before the influencer era came into effect, but most everything else seems pretty bang on, if slightly exaggerated for dramatic effect. I remember kids going away because their nude leaks made it impossible for them to be at school without being harassed. Drugs weren't huge, besides molly, which everyone loved, though I definitely heard of more drug-related issues at schools closer to the city.

Notice that most of the characters don't know what is happening to the others. So, if you don't think there were kids at your school going through similar things, it's probably because they were keeping it to themselves.

I can say personally that the show is pretty realistic, even for the psychopathic Nate. I watched people who I never thought would do drugs, start doing them and because a friend influenced them to. I even had a friend that was put in the hospital because of a posioned blunt. I had a friend who was almost exactly like the girl who does webcam. And many girls and boys are sex crazed in high school. I think these stories are very real, maybe you don't see them in every school, but there is at least one of them.

the creator of the show actually based the character of rue and her addiction off his own life which happened while he was a teenager, he said in an interview that he overdosed like 6 times, and has been clean ever since he was 19.

Is this actually new, though?

I think the only thing social media has done is intensified things and especially added instantaneous nude-sharing / exploitation to the mix in a way that wasn't there before.

Some stuff in the show is definitely added for theatrical effect. The webcam storyline is a bit much and while Nate's earlier toxic masculinity storyline (especially when hanging with his boys and discussing girls as objects) was accurate, his descent into psychopathy is an extreme example. If you take those two elements out, the show doesn't seem unusual or fresh, hence why they were added, I think.

I hope we keep getting shows like this that demonstrate how easy it's become to exploit others, and especially how young guys are conditioned into thinking aggression and treating girls like objects is normal. So much of youth culture - specifically hip-hop and related youth social media platforms (like worldstar, for example) - normalise demeaning women in a way that wasn't as accessible to youth of the past.
