Bad Behaviour

I don't think I've ever watched a series where I have hated every single character until this. It's an interesting series but every character (bar the minor ones - friends of main character in today's day) is so bloody toxic in their own way. It makes you question your childhood or at least someone's you know. Bullies, blackmail, torture, homophobia, abuse this has it all.

Every episode makes you want to yell at the telly WHY WOULD YOU DO/SAY THAT!! Some of these actresses are brilliant in other shows but this really leaves you wondering what the person who wrote the story line went through.

Would I recommend? Only if you don't have childhood school trauma.

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.

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.

As others have pointed out, this brief series is not particularly joyful and so, if you think you might struggle to watch kids and adults bullying each other, then Bad Behaviour might be better avoided. However, for me, it was the powerfully credible depiction of the suffering endured by characters in the show that made it worth watching. I felt that it accurately conveyed the struggles of teenage years and the dark plot was engaging without being gratuitously disturbing.

The cast performed with great sensitivity and the use of the same actors across both timelines was seamlessly executed. This highly convincing duality of character portrayal was perhaps the most impressive aspect of the series.

Once again, Australian television delivers a distinctive series that focuses on complex themes, stunning scenery and excellent acting, without stringing the viewer along unnecessarily.

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%.
