The story is interesting, with the game of the tapes, and the psychology. I also liked the montage and the alteration between past and present.
However, the behavior of people is exaggerated. I dont know if teenagers have become now so soft and sensitive, or this is how Americans are, but if I judge about my teenage years mentality and that of my schoolmates, this show is very off. Characters get upset with (often) silly things, the arguments or the events that justified the blame of everyone for the death are in most cases idiotic, and come on... "I thought you were my friend" that is heard again and again, with every random person that doesn't want to go out with you?
Bullying is a real problem and its often expressed much more aggressively and in a threatening manner to lead to a suicide, than this show demonstrates. Of course it's a tv show. It just takes a serious issue and expresses it in a silly way.
