Generation

It's not the best show tv show out there but I certainly wouldn't say it's deserving of so many angry 1 star reviews. While I would agree with other reviewers' complaints about the lack of character depth/development, I don't find the characters completely unlikeable.

I've seen 3 episodes and so far it's been somewhat entertaining; not great but far more interesting than most of the dumpster fire tv shows these days *cough* Love Island *cough*. I would agree that the plot is pretty thin so far, and sure, it seems that the creators are perhaps trying a little too hard to be "edgy", but it has held my interest.

In summary, if you're looking for a relatively harmless mediocre teen drama, this show should do just fine.

I guess bad reviews come from narrow minded people who get annoyed when sexuality is shown without any hindrance. Well, it's not a hell of a show but it's what it is: real life for teenagers nowadays.

I enjoy this series and I am 72. It is not perfect, it is boring in places and it has many dark themes.

When it comes to learning about life, love and living, all teens struggle to learn their identity and where they "fit in," if at all. The only differences between my friends in high school and those you see in this series, is the music, hair styles, Instagram and their ability to actually be themselves, instead of trying to live up to their parent's expectations. In that respect, this series is refreshing.

To prove to you that I am 72, to the director: "If you insist on showing us texting on cell phones, please try to hold the camera steady!" :-)

I've found that when it comes to HBO, people over 30 are going to have an issue with how the teens are portrayed. I'm 18 and I found the show to be believable and raw and beautiful because Its literally happening to me. This isn't a show for close minded adults and immature children.

I expected this series to be extremely bad with all the negative reviews... but it's not. It's no where near perfect or amazing but it's not as bad as some of these people are claiming it is...it's worth watching
