Everything Sucks!

Was curious to watch a show set in 90's and they definitely made a good job with that. All that nostalgia with slow internet, music, blockbuster, tapes etc.

In addition to that we have pretty nice characters. Not an extraordinary high school story but one that one wants to follow. Acting is lacking in some cases but Jahi Di'Allo Winston does a pretty good job.

The adults on this show were also great to watch. Actually I think I preferred them. Sherry and Ken were both very sweet characters, really well performed and it was a joy to see the both of them together.

This show was really great. It has a lot of charm. The cast was wonderful. This show brings me back to a great time in my life. It has a lot of potential.

This Netflix Original starts out as just another one of those ordinary school sitcoms about school life. But after a couple episodes, the show dives even deeper as we find out Kate Messner, a Sophomore at Boring High School, is lesbian, she shares her journeys as she goes through the social stigma and the complications of being lesbian in the 1990's. This is a great show and I highly recommend it anybody who is looking for a Comedy that is serious but not too seriously.

On April 6, Netflix announces 'Everything Sucks!' will not be renewed for a second season.

When I first began watching this show I wasn't sure what to expect from it. I did initially feel that they were constantly reminding the audience that the show took place in the 90's and found that a little too on the nose. BUT as the story developed and evolved, I fell absolutely in love with this show for it's nostalgia and for everyone of these characters. All I can say now is PLEASE NETFLIX...give me more!

With a title like this you expect it to be about a bunch of disaffected and angry kids living in a world with clueless and mean adults But actually the kids in this story are nerdy and different, but pretty good kids after all. And the adults are pretty real too. One of the story lines is the lead female character (with great acting by Peyton Kennedy) discovering that she may be gay. I wouldn't call it the biggest plot of the show, but it's an important aspect. There are many storylines - the lead male (Jahi Di'Allo Winston) is dealing with his runaway dad. Both of these kids come from single parent homes and the parents also have an important plot line. Not to mention the big project that brings together the AV nerds and Drama kings and queens.

If I had one complaint it's with the character Emaline. She flits from persona to persona that you never really know who she is. I think she is written as a foil to enable the other characters' stories, but she doesn't really have a story of her own. Also the ensemble of backing teen characters are pretty stock.

If you can get past the first couple of episodes annoyingness, it turns into a pleasant coming of age story with plenty of tearjerker moments along the way. Thumbs up.
