Tudo para ontem

I truly don't understand the number of people that I have compared this to Euphoria & at the same time criticized for supposedly 'copying' that show, when the only real things that this show has in common with Euphoria are a black & queer/bisexual protagonist (who also happens to be a teenager).

There is the addiction issue, which many will say is a form of addiction (and I don't fully disagree w that premise) but otherwise, there is nothing other than these superficial character traits that the show has in common with Euphoria.

It seems more to me that many viewers are unable to see beyond the surface & will only see Mia's character & think "she's black & she's queer, this is just like Euphoria" when, in actuality, this show is very unlike Euphoria in many many ways.

I don't want to put spoilers in here, so I won't get too far into her character, but it seems to me that (especially these days & particularly in the US & the UK) all people want to look at are the superficial/outward qualities of someone and/or their personality & dismiss it as the most important thing about said character(s).

Can't people get past the fact that teenagers have always had complications in their lives & have always had emotional struggles, while the color of their skin & who they find attractive is the furthest thing from what you would call a character description?

People comparing this to Euphoria are clearly not looking beyond the fact that Mia is black & queer when giving this show bad reviews, claiming it is a copy.

I just wish people would see other people, whether it is an everyday life or in movies/television as who they really are, and that there is much more to people than simply their sexual history/preference & skin color.

I guess that's clearly just too much to ask of a 2023 television viewing audience.

I do really enjoy teenage dramas, but what I couldn't understand is why all these amazing loving caring cool friends would care SO much for Mía , who is in general not a likeable person. She is not interesting, she doesn't have a big personality, she is not nice to them, she is most of the show pretty quiet actually (other than the voice in her head we keep hearing) her character is boring and overall not interesting. I ended up watching the show for all of the other characters. I did find it very similar to Euphoria in a very soft way, but not as interesting or dramatic which makes it more real cause these are just kids.

This movie tackles very sensitive issue and this was able to show the good side and bad side of healing. Healing is not a very easy road, even you have people to support you, the can't help you enough.

Healing is a process, but it can also be a realization. It takes time but the world can wait.

Hope this reach to everyone struggling with mental illness.

I know that we are going through a lot right now, that even moral support can't lift us up anymore. This battle will be rough and difficult, but ourselves need us. Lets fight for ourselves.

Btw for a little background by me, i'm suffering from major depression.

I loved the casting and the setting of this series. There's no gender segregation or Hollywood-style drama here; it simply portrays children and parents living their lives. Carli was particularly appealing, and I'm glad they didn't portray the East Asian girl as a stereotypical character.

By the way, it's clear that the characters are quite wealthy. With their huge, beautiful doors, spacious kitchen, wide bathroom, Koi pond, and annual trips to Greece(?) with their dad, they definitely come from privileged backgrounds. While some aspects may seem unrealistic, the heart of the story revolves around Mia's battle with an eating disorder.

Despite the somewhat 'unreal' elements, the kids and teens in the series are charming and vibrant. This drama is aimed at a youthful audience, and I appreciated it because it presents a vision of a better future. It avoids discussions of race and sexual orientation, creating a world where everyone is free to be themselves.

Topics likes this are often sensitive and hard to discuss this show has managed to exhibit this topic properly and gave in the facts as well as for a good reflection on the situation from both parties the main character and the family. This show is immaculate and mature in the aspects of anorexia and it's effects mentally and physically. This show has plot twists that make you think twice before jumping in conclusions there several factors that make this show different from others that I have watched that talk about this same topic everything now is a show that embodies the of anorexia and effects that does not only affect you but also your family.
