Featured reviews
A lot of the negative reviews on the site critique the series for representing a dishonest and perverted view of teenagers, but as a teenager myself this is frighteningly realistic. This is not a case of a failed attempt to relate to the youth, this accurately captures the culture around sex and drugs in the western world better than most other media i have seen.
It was the most interesting and depressing pilot episode i've ever seen.
The characters are amazing and Zendaya gives a dynamic performance. The cinematography was stunning, too, and the twist was insane.

Great cinematography, absolutely stunning. It has a lot of energy, and the cutaway sequences felt purposeful, and not like Family Guy. The script can use a little more work, but we'll see where it goes.
The plot of the the first episode was very interesting. The storyline was well-written. The characters were very interesting and they seem to be developed very well. Rue, she doesn't seem a very likeable character and it's kinda sad that she didn't quit drugs. Jules, she's so beautiful, however she's taking some bad decisions. Nate, he's an asshole, that he doesn't deserve love and happiness. Maddy, she's so annoying and she's such a toxic person. Kat, she's very likeable and she doesn't deserve to be Maddy's friend. Cassie, she's so sweet and none of the boys deserve her! Overall, it was a nice start, it's a promising show!
I've heard about Euphoria since it came out and after finishing the show I was currently binging I decided to try this out. Quite a pilot! Good script, fun at places but what a serious subject matter - I was not expecting this. I'm going to continue watching but can't say I'm looking forward to it, hard to watch the violent scenes.

- GoofsWhen Jules is at the motel to meet up with 'DominantDaddy' the location on her phone says '11.6 mi away' when she in reality it would have been closer to 500 ft away because they were both at the motel.
- Quotes
Rue Bennett: I promise you. If I could be a different person, I would. Not because I want it, but because they do. But here's the thing. One day, I just showed up without a map or a compass, and at some point, you have to make a choice... about who you are and what you want. And therein lies the catch.
