    Haven't seen any of it, so take it she puts on a yanky accent then?

    Must give it a watch, before reading this thread I thought it was one of those chick flick series.

    Aye, that'll be it for her now she's broke through over there.

    Even if she ends up having to come back to Aus, she'll have $$ thrown at her for every lead role going.

    Just done episode 7, getting pretty tasty now.

    Mrs is still well and truly on the bird's side. For some reason though, I can't warm to her, I still don't feel all that sorry for her yet :39: Think she's acted a * to Clay thus far

    Neither do I. She gets offended over * all. The last episode I watched was 7 as well. The Asian guy was being nice to her and she was a total *.

    She's an absolute ride though(21 in real life so not being pervy).

    I'm only on 8 so same stage as you, and I can't help but feel annoyed to how many times she has brought it on herself. Getting to quite an unrealistic stage where just everything isn't going right for her:56:

    Felt very teeny drama and was watching Riverdale as well. The two were just too high school scooby doo mystery. The wife loves river dale so I will just stick with 13 reasons and see how that works. More into designated survivor at the minute.

    The Moth and the Flame - Young and Unafraid.

    Tune.

    Kinda reminds me of the song on GTA. The Chain Gang - Sleepwalking.

    Just finished it. The last couple of episodes were powerful.

    Good show.

    Just finished. I think dependent on your own state of mind, this can be pretty powerful.

    For me, I wasn't that vested in it until the last two episodes where I began to feel it a bit more. They were the most realistic and hard-hitting ones.
    that scene in the bath, * * that was brutal, how people can do that, jeeeez, also, Mr Porter, worst counsellor ever, I shouted at the screen haha

    I hear there is a concern about this glamourising suicide and a worry rates will increase with this programme, whilst that's maybe a bit dramatic, I actually do agree this could encourage it and there may be an argument here.

    Just finished it.

    Agree with those above who said the last couple were pretty powerful.

    For me though, the ending left so many unanswered questions. I think they could have ended it in a better, more rounded way. There's numerous things regarding various characters that are left a bit unanswered.

    For instance:

    The photography kid, what was with the guns and *? Is he planning some mass shooting?
    Bryce- What happened or became of him?
    Alex- What happened?
    Mr Porter- What happened?
    Mr and Mrs Baker- Once again, what happened, how did they react etc etc...
    Justin- What the * happened?
    Zach- What the * happened? Why was Alex phoning him?
    CLAY ffs- What happened? How did his maw react?
    Tony- Why him? He barely knew Hannah, why pick him?
    Hannah- Who did she mail the other set of tapes to?


    I just think it left so much * left unanswered and after 13 pretty intense and powerful episodes which all led to that...I'm not so sure. They could easily have had another episode wrapping it all up. Then again, it would take it over the 13 limit but so *.

    I also see why people are talking about it 'glorifying' suicide if you like. The way she comes across throughout is if no-one is constantly asking how you are, or chasing after you to stop you then it is right to do it...I know it was meant to make you feel sorry for her but she brought a * of a lot of it on herself. I struggled to really engage with her. As terrible as that might sound.

    Even at the beginning of the series I was always thinking the same.

    Very good though, overall. Thought provoking as *.

    I didn't realise they were making another season...hmmm. Not so sure.

    But * it, might give me my answers.

    I can see the scope for it but I'd think it would have made a nice stand alone. All the questions could be answered in no more 2 or 3 episodes I'd say where it goes after that is anyone's guess.

    I've just read a theory as to what season 2 would be based around.

    The photography kid killing each of them one by one in order. Hence why Alex is shot and he takes down his photo from the ones hanging up. That seems to be the major 'fan theory' going about. But that would kind of take the show in a whole different direction, more of a horror really.

    Aye I read that one
    iirc tyler was building some arsenal in his bedroom so possibly a school Shooting could be done as the focus. it is another massive problem in the US I suppose. Ofcourse that is bringing the show into another ballpark completely from the suicide/bullying

    The way it finished you knew there would be a second season...but why even do it? We've heard all of the tapes so is it know going to be all about her parents suing the school and court room drama?
