I still dont know what to feel about this show. I am kinda disappointed that all the plotlines that i was interested in were just dropped or just wrapped up with little satisfaction.And i dont need every thing to be ended satisfyingly, but this just felt like wasted potential . Zendaya is obviously the star of the show and completely deserves the emmy win.Ep 3 was just amazing and my favourite, and i wish the story focused more on her addiction rather than all the highschool BS that we have seen so many times
Technically this show is top notch , with amazing camerawork,lighting, music ( which felt kinda excessive some times) and acting. The problem comes with the characters and the plot.I found only a handful of side characters interesting and there are a lot of them. Nate whom i was very interested in just becomes the bad guy who does things basically because he is bad. The entire subplot of him lying to the police also didnt really go anywhere(maybe it will be answered in season 2 ) Fezco was another really interesting character and his relationship with Rue was one of the best part of the show. Ali who could have been a great character is just dropped halfway , same with mckay who doesnt even appear in the last ep. The carnival episodes one take was so good. I wish there were more scenes of the cast just sitting and talking like there was in the last ep . All the girls just talking about life and relationships while being drunk was the most relatable scene in the entire show( aside from rue's breakdown in ep 3). There were so many dropped plotlines (which maybe will be resolved in s2) and so many holes and gaps in the story. Also the show wants to include all taboo things but doesnt really want to delve into them deeply. I wish they had just focused on one character (rue) and told the story of a drug addict, instead of including all these highschool drama things. Also Lexi and Rue's relation was so underutilised. All in all a 7- 7.5
/10 with the 3rd ep being a 10/10(just wish there had been more tackling of addiction rather than typical teen drama.) The last ep was okay , but I wish there were more scenes like all the girls just talking about life throughout the show.There also plenty of shots that are just beautiful to look at.There are definitely some scenes which you will look at and think how the hell they did that( like the party scene in ep 1 where rue basically becomes spiderman , or the carnival one take which is so good). All in all it was a good show and had a unique flair to it and definitely stands out among the crowd of teen shows , but suffers because of a weak plot.Still conflicted wether or not to watch season 2. Also Zendaya is the best part of the show
