A dramatic series based on the story of the Israeli series of the same name, which speaks of a group of high school students who stand in front of the challenge of dangerous adolescence. These teens try to overcome drugs, sex and violence in an attempt to understand a future that may seem quite vague and may be full of mysterious events in their lives.
Euphoria wants to be honest and cool AF with character arcs built around its taboos, but while it has plenty of inspired visuals, those values don't make for durable storytelling once you get to know the show at its core.
The series is certainly aesthetically pleasing and well-directed, with smooth camera work that boosts the characters' interior lives. But the writing is shaky, filled with clunky lines and not-so-twisty plot twists.
While Euphoria is surreal and, in its first episode, darker than any teen TV show I've ever seen, it's also just handing back to society what it's given us, no plain brown wrapper necessary.
That it's easy to buy into Euphoria's nihilistic vision of adolescence as distilled misery says more about us than it does about teenagers: Some people just love a good scare.
