Euphoria

I don’t believe they got storylines rewritten. They’re in their mid 20s in real life, this is their career. Unlike the characters they play I’m sure they’re able to treat their colleagues with professionalism and respect despite their personal feelings.

I do buy into Ferreira getting sidelined though. Don’t piss off the writer.

i heard she didnt wanna get nude as much but Sam wanted her to go down the ED route? and she didnt want that?
i thought he would cop on and make a better storyline but clearly didnt happen, she was so good too!!

 

[BettyCrockerr]

I do believe that the actress who played Kat wasn’t happy with the way her character was wrote and, because of that, lots her scenes got cut but I definitely don’t believe the Jacob/Hunter rumours - someone even posted TikToks of BTS on Euphoria and they were hugging and laughing (didn’t know the cameras were on them)

Jacob & Hunter don’t follow eachother on Instagram anymore. That is true. They were- and yes they used to comment on eachothers posts etc but not anymore. They both still follow the other cast members. Something obviously went sour between them.

Thought I’d try one episode last night as we have the channel, omg what a load of tripe. Why has she changed her whole personification to weird gurning and face pulling? Angus died and the whole thing went to shit. I didn’t even manage to watch a whole episode.

First and second season have been 8 episodes
For spoiler, do it like this removing the asterisk -> [ISPOILER*]here goes the spoiler text[/ISPOILER]
You can also use the preview to see how it will look like.

 

[velvetn0mates]

Have a feeling season two is gonna be better than the first

 

[calabazarock]

I'm not sure if I'll watch it after the sad loss of Angus

Same, I was invested in Fexi

 

[hol20x]

First episode was shite. And really gross at times.

Spoiler

I’m not buying that they would just go and arrest Laurie because of something Faye said and so that’s the end of it. They made such a big deal of Laurie hunting Rue down, I can’t believe that they’re just going to leave it there. even though it seems like they are.

 

[FrannyGallops]

A horrible thought occurred to me that this will all end up being Lexy’s plot outline for a film or something and not real life but surely they wouldn’t do that.

Other than that, I’ve enjoyed it but I’ve really missed Labrinth’s soundtrack this season.

@LaBlonde you’re right about the writing

Spoiler: I mean, huh?!

just read an article that says Nate got Cal arrested for child pornography, yet last week he didn’t want anyone to know because it would ruin the business?!

sam levison lucks out with how good the actors are tbh. they elevate his writing to a whole other level which is to their credit given that it doesn’t sound like the easiest set in the world to be on.

Spoiler

i saw that too, and that faye somehow helped laurie get arrested. so rue’s debt is just gone? and the cal thing makes no sense because we didn’t get any real build-up to that much of a character change. the fans online get very protective of this show but you have to admit that the writing is just messy sometimes. but i read that sam l doesn’t plan and also doesn’t take a daily scene plan to set so it does seem like he does it on the fly!

How do i do that spoiler thing!!

[ spoiler ] and [ / spoiler ] - just without the spaces!

Trying to figure out who Ethan could end up with, I think Maddie would eat him alive there's no one for him he'll probably be written out in s3

The Cut article is here, I archived it: https://archive.ph/IJ60j

It’s very good. I had no idea Euphoria was adapted from an Israeli show of the same name.

This thread talks about it

Had to watch it this morning as I knew I couldnt avoid spoilers all day, even though even at 6am I saw a semi spoiler! Why do legacy media insist on doing this? The mini spoiler was before it even aired in the US!

will put my thoughts into spoiler for anyone who hasnt seen it yet

Spoiler: Last episode

firstly quite sad about Rue but it’s kinda in line with her character. It just goes to show that unfortunately a lot of addicts do not get the happy ending that they want.

Jules as always was absolutely pointless in this episode in fact the whole season don’t know what the point of her character was in the season to be honest

As much as I dislike Sydney I think her acting was great this season even though her storyline was a bit shit. Not quite sure how I feel about her ending as there wasn’t much to go on.

MADDYYY- i’m so happy for her ending. It seems that all of them she got the happiest ending and I’m glad that Bishop came through for her essentially in the end. I’ll definitely watch a spinoff about her life!

And Ali, who knew he’d be such a key member this season. after not been able to save Rue- i’m glad he avenged her I absolutely adore the actor and I definitely think he deserves some kind of award for this episode

Overall, I think there was just too much going on to wrap up properly and a lot of unanswered questions so I wouldn’t really give it a high rating overall for a season finale but I think that sums up the whole season to be honest

 

[dontcome@me]

omg please someone tell me they've watched it it was INCREDIBLE

I’m in Australia so saw it hours ago!

Soooooo good but holy shit it’s all going to go down in the finale. So bummed it’s only 8 episodes

 

[LaBlonde]

If S3 is anything like S2 I’d be happy to see the back of it to be honest. S1 is up there with one of my favourites of all time but it completely lost its way.

sam levinson and his ego (and his frankly ick behaviour with a lot of the actresses) has run it into the ground.

if this show didn’t have zendaya (who acts everyone else off screen), it would never have gotten a third series. the way he apparently works and the stories about the set must give hbo such a headache. but it gets the social media interest i suppose!

 

[FrannyGallops]

I just rewatched the episode and could not believe no teachers were handing out the punishments, or there even. It’s so strange the entire school has been forced to watch this play, yet the only adults seem to be Lexi’s mum and the man sitting next to her.

I mean, it’s been a long time since I was at school and I live in the U.K. rather than America, but surely the play would have had to have been run past an adult at some point before they got to perform it? I don’t think it would have even gotten to the casting stage in this country as it would be seen as a form of bullying because the characters are so obviously based on real pupils (obviously I know that this is where suspension of disbelief comes into play, but still…).

 

[CrackingOwlSanctuary]

I think they were always going to be struggling with this series, they couldn't do high school anymore and the main stars are absolutely huge now. I definitely agree the Jacob Elordi storyline is directly linked to the fact he has been shooting a load of huge films at the same time.

Sidney Sweeney already gets a load of detractors purely for using her body to get ahead so that was only ever going to ramp up, and I think social media now is geared up to profit from outrage.

Half the stuff that has happened and been slated as too perverted is a riff on media from last century.

The main issue is the show's pivoted into a crime and gangster show and the audience isn't here for that. I think it's just fine, but they could do worse than copying Skins' homework again and rebooting season 4 back in high school with a fresh roster.

I was just looking at the Euphoria subreddit and was reminded that in the trailer for season 2 we see a swat team pull up somewhere.. these next 2 episodes are really gonna have us stressing aren’t they
