Bad Behaviour

I only made it through 2 episodes.. it's slow. EXCEPTIONALLY slow.

The "bad behavior" is simply teenage girls at a boarding school being "mean girls" nothing more. There was nothing really engaging or exciting. Perhaps one needs to have been a bullied teenage girl for this to series to matter. Watching from the outside it's really rather drab and unentertaining.

Acting is sub-par. Dialog delivery is just odd in places.. weird pauses for seemingly "dramatic effect"... a la.. "I .... .... ... have to get going." No one actually speaks like that. Overall the entire series feels like it was written, directed, filmed and acted by individuals who were half-asleep and lacked ANY type of real-world vigor or "life".

After nearly two episodes the story is still rather unclear. There doesn't appear to be a direct cohesive storyline. It's merely a collection of events strung together. And the primary focus, oddly, seems to be sexual fluidity overall. It's not outspoken or prominent. But that really seems to be the only "unique" aspect here. As if a series of rather standard events are made more interesting by non-gender-normative characters - they aren't. People, regardless of any gender fluidity, are still people - and the events are still pretty much the same.

I watched 50% of this and could not, for the life of me, see why it warranted watching the remaining 50%.

Wasn't so nice ,but great performance for the acters ,even though the story wasnt really well, i dont know for others but i didn't like how its end. With this kind of scenario, stories, that ending should have really be different but anyway something great to watch if you are bored. That why i gave four stars this show would have been really great if they had just worked a bit that story. Any love story must always end well on a movie i think, if not so what's the point? It's a movie or a tv series is not real life and fans or people really love happy ending especially when you make a deep connection with the characters.

This show made me feel very nostalgic about my own experiences as a teenager, but I loved being able to see multiple perspectives and.. just experiencing it from an outside source. It was pretty raw for me even 15 years on, so a warning is warranted for those for whom it is still fresh.

I would definitely recommend the series for those who have encountered similar things as well as those who haven't - it's generally well produced and impressive overall.

I can't say I'm happy from watching it all, but I feel that it was valuable content.

To those who are experiencing it now.. it shall pass. Xx.

I remember seeing the ads for this and thinking "wow this could be bad." but I watched it all in one sitting and it ended up being really good? That was the surprising thing. It was just daring to be different and daring to change the normal of just a 'school drama', the director and cast did a fantastic job at bringing this to life, congrats.

What this shows is that you can never really hide from the past and make sure the future looks safe when its not and unfortunately while everyone else let go of the past Jo couldn't. Jo is the epitome of 'can't let go' and it really shows when she meets the people from her past who have let go their previous lives at the school.

You can run from the past but you cannot hide from it.

I think most negative reviews stem from the fact that the protagonist is one of the most despicable human beings ever to grace a tv screen.

Every second is pure agony to watch. These girls are mean, they are weak and spoiled.

The fact that this show makes me feel all this hate and dismay clearly shows how well the characters are portrayed and acted.

Sadly it makes the show almost unwatchable.

If you like "Yellowjackets" or the much more obscure "Ondskan", here you can "enjoy" similar feelings, but a lot less watered down, and for hours on end.

I did not like watching this. But I respect the artistry. 8.5/10.
