ive watched the first 2 eps and the whole premise is annoying. the girl who killed herself is even more annoying for doing this whole schtick

is it worth sticking it out?

The rest of the season is pretty much more of the same, so if you're not enjoying it early on, it probably won't grow on you. Also, the first season is by far the best season.

Season 3 also reminded me of Riverdale, albeit with more mature content.

also why doesnt clay just listen to all the tapes instead of listening to a few sentences then confronting other ppl asking them about himself or whats going on

Riverdale s1 has its charms. The rest is awful and only worth watching ironically if even that

Because then the series would be over almost immediately. In the book it's based on, he doesn't take nearly as long to listen to the tapes.

i think thats what they were trying to do show how flawed the girl who killed herself was and the fact she had people she couldve asked help from she didnt realize

she was pretty much locked herself in her own world

Absolutely agree. The first season was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting it to be trash, and it turned out to be watchable. Season 2 had 100 different plotlines going on, most of them completely ridiculous. I haven't even tried season 3 yet.

Season 1 is worth a watch. It annoyed the shit out of me at first but as the story moves along and Clay listens to more of the tapes, things change for the better and by the end of the season I was really impressed. I was left with the impression that the show intentionally wanted me to get annoyed while leading up to certain things in order to make a point.

From there I'd heavily advise as to whether or not you should continue or just drop the show from there; after all the source material (book) the show is based on ends at this point. If you liked it enough to want to know what could happen to the character after the events of S1, and don't mind it taking a worse turn, then I suppose continue.

Season 2 and 3 just shouldn't have happened but I can't say I regret finishing them.

Season 2 is a complete slog but lays out a foundation for Season 3 which starts off frustratingly annoying/bad but picks up at the 4th episode and IMO redeems itself and Season 2 by Season 3's end.

This is probably very true. I haven't watched much teen/HS drama myself but I couldn't help but think "this can't be the tip of the iceberg of this genre"

It's a moodier Riverdale with a much less attractive cast. Worth a watch if you absolutely love high school melodrama

Watched the first season and started a bit on the second and got bored. Should have ended on season 1 imo, which was pretty good.

Season 1 has the advantage of being based on decent source material. Everything after that is them trying to extend a story that had already been concluded.

I like it, but can admit it's melodramatic af and only gets more annoying as it goes on.

i'm definitely getting that feeling as well. i'm glad i wasn't the only one who feels that way. but i think i might skip because so much of the plot is annoying, and so are the characters. maybe the book is more for me rather than the TV show

i do want to know the deal with clay. i believe he's a good guy in the end, which is why most characters are so blunt towards him
