Heathers

It is honestly not as bad as I thought it would be based on the trailer! Though yes I have only seen the one episode but I found it comical and it made new modern commentary.

Really, one of the previous reviews, by carlosmiguelvc, said it the best. I adore the irony and tongue in cheek humor of this show. (So far. It remains to be seen if they can maintain it.) It makes a good point.

Ive seen episodes 1-6 even though Paramount got scared and pulled the series. Costing the entire cast and crew work. Its a smart, funny contained retelling of the wonderful movie we grew up loving. This done in tv form guves characters time to develop ublike most movies. Its has a sarcastic tone. The people at Paramount know this. Yet they also know most of society is too stupid to see it. They knew the fake outrage mobs woukd be causing troubles so they pulled it. Hopefully it airs here in the US. If not the internet is wide open.

Very cool rework of an 80's hit. Resonates deeply with a lot of issues and stigmas in today's society. Critically, this has received some harsh reviews and I'm not really sure why? I would really like to see how this show continues, even into a second season. I'm a little confused on how this show is described as an "anthology," but maybe a second season would explain that.

What would be the point to make another show with popular skinny fashionable girls, jocks who date them and nerds? It's a different world and a new generation is here. Millennials. Everything is about social media fame and the correct minority to be part of. Heathers criticizes our modern era. Kardashians are the modern philosophers, a dog is cuter than a baby, everything you say is offensive, your worth is your followers and the likes your reward. And don't forget. Your are perfect, no improvement necessary. I only hope the rest of the season stays true to the pilot.
