13 Reasons Why

The rollercoaster that started with Hannah Baker and her titular motivations that drove her to suicide has finally come to a full stop. Everyone involved in the infamous tapes are damaged beyond repair, regardless what happinesses they find, and no one more than our protagonist Clay Jensen, whose conflict takes on the most phantasmagorical in the final ten episodes.

For a show that's gone on as long as 13 Reasons Why (and, let's be real, it really didn't need to surpass one season), the melodrama keeps piling on. The first season is not without its faults but it's superior to everything that follows. Season 2 was one long, dragged out snoozer that hit no bumps until the finale, which brought us what is singlehandedly the most uncomfortable scene in the entire series (perhaps even Netflix overall). Yes, even more than the (now removed) bathtub suicide at the end of season 1.

While season 3 was a marked improvement over 2, ignoring the question of "why the hell is this still on?", at least new character Ani came in with something resembling a backstory, because that can't be said for any other new characters, although her use becomes extremely problematic (I'll give you a hint, it involves redeeming a rapist). A number of supporting players come into play in the second and third seasons, and then vanish with next to no explanation.

The writers room seem to have little idea how contemporary teenagers act, peppering every other word with an F bomb and their lives is one giant soap opera. This may be how some Gen Z'ers see their existence but 13RW is next level. Bullying that leads to suicide is all too unfortunately common, yet has anyone (prior to the show's release) actually gone out of their way to record who they blame for the ultimate decision?

One thing I will credit the series as a whole is the committed performances of its young actors (young is a strong word, considering the actor behind sociopathic school bully Montgomery is in his early thirties). With the material they're given, Katherine Langford (Hannah), Miles Heizer (Alex), Alisha Boe (Jessica), Brandon Flynn (Justin), Timothy Granaderos (Monty)--especially come season 4--really play out their strengths. But the most notable performance has to go to Devin Druid as the ambiguously disordered yearbook photographer Tyler.

Tyler's journey is, without a doubt, the most har

So, what we have here is a game of blame. A blame game that pushes the responsibility for a suicide from the individual to everyone else, almost saying that the decision to off oneself is made by others.

And then, as if to draw the biggest difference between Millennials and everyone else, it almost goes out of its way to say that people don't base their views on what everyone else thinks are wrong for being independently minded.

The message is clear, let others think for you unto your death.

Short Summery: TV show started good, but turned into crap woke political show.

1. Season is okay
2. Season is better
3. Season is bad and started showing signs of woke propaganda
4. Season is worst and is a pure propaganda

I watched first season and this is the conclusion I made from these series: Hannah Baker (girl who killed herself) was a drama queen who made a lot of mistakes, weren't very bright in her head and instead of making things right, she decided to end her own life and blame others. She was definitely a stupid girl. Who doesn't get bullied in school? I got bullied too when I was a kid. I'm pretty sure lots of you got bullied too, but it doesn't mean you need to kill yourself. You move on and concentrate on more important things like your future and study instead of those moron teenagers. From everything that I saw in a first season I saw crime only twice: Raping and sexual harrasment. Hannah saw how her classmate got raped by other classmate. She got harrased several times sexually by the same person and another person (Marcus, in a restaurant), yet instead of telling parents and going to Police station, she kept it quite. But what's most stupid thing she did was going at night to the rapist's house party & getting half naked in his hot tub which apparently she ended up being raped by him. Seriously, what did you expect? You know that, this guy is a rapist, yet you go to his house party at night, get in his hot tub half naked and end up with him alone in the tub? How dumb you must be to do that? But her stupidity doesn't end up there. After she gets raped by that guy, instead of finally going to Police station, again she keeps it as a secret and acts like nothing happens. Later she visits school council and tries to tell him about it, but she doesn't. She just gives him some puzzled answers when council is asking the right questions. Eventually he tells her that "either you speak up about it and we will try to help, either you move on", because if victim doesn't speak out about it, then no one can help them. It's the only way. And as always, Hannah fails here too and refuses to admit what happened and instead decides to kill herself and then records audio cassettes where she blames a lots of kids for her suicide, even good kids that didn't deserve it.
