I wouldn't exaggerate if I say this is one of the best series in netflix,
I don't know how but it's just really good, I watched it twice in a row,
The story telling and how unique it is, the way we see the scene from each point of view is just amazing 👏 , you wouldn't expect this much from a serie I would say with zero marketing, like there's no ads or recommendations from netflix that's what's make it underrated.
I really recommend it to everyone and I'm sure you will finish it in one set and probably re-watch, believe me that's how good the show is.

Was pleasantly surprised to come across this on Netflix. The show has solid pacing and dialog, which keeps the story moving forward without ever feeling rushed or dull. I was able to watch the entire season in just a couple sittings. All the actors were really well cast, though the character of Tryst seemed to be the most engaging for me. Even though the show is labeled as a comedy, I feel it goes a bit above just the laughs by really exploring all the characters interpersonal relationships. The serious moments give us a reason to care and a reason to root for people. Really hoping for a second season.
This show never really got of the ground for me. What made it interesting is definitly the way the story is told from two different perspective. Nice touch on the unreliable narrator concept. But other than that there is not much to talk about. I honestly had to look the show up to write this review because I had forgotten most of it - even though I watched it just two week ago. That is not a good sign. There should be something that would make me excited for a second season. However I do not regret watching it - it did pass the time. Richard Harmon was the highlight of the show for me. If there was another season I would tune in but with no excitment or great anticipation to be honest.
First of all, i have to say it is one of the 3 best shows on Netflix for me. As it was based on true cases, although the story is fictional, the showrunners let us to face to a few problems of teenagers. Personally, i love the way they did that, finding a good balance between humour, violence and emotional (sometimes sentimental) moments. I enjoyed watching the story through the eyes of the main characters, they represented well how big difference there's between the point of view of each person, and how easy to misjudge people at first sight.
Furthermore, i have to highlight the marvelous job of the actors. All were unusually good at portraying their characters. They made me believe that i see real people on the screen: nice, innocent, a bit silly and annoying, but definitely real characters struggling with their own everyday life.

Zoe Christensen (Emilija Baranac) is a Vancouver bookworm high school student. She has made an university ID to study in the library. Her hard-partying best friend Rebecca Li (Jennifer Tong) needs a new fake ID. They join drug dealer Tryst (Richard Harmon) to start a fake ID business.
This is a CBC show that got picked up by Netflix. It has a couple of interesting moves like the multiple point-of-views and unreliable narrators. The opening probably shows too much. It depraves the show of some of its tension. The subject matter reminds me a little of Good Girls. As for the girls, they are pretty good despite being thirty playing teenagers. The first season ends with a promise of more although more is unlikely.
