I love the dynamics between Clay and Hannah, super relatable! The last time I was rooting so much for a relationship was Seth and Summer from The O.C.
@ForgotMyLines - Agreed. This had so much potential. It was just so hard to care about any of the characters.
Season 2 was just confirmed to come out on May 18th 2018.
I found that really annoying and frustrating. There were only about 2 likeable characters in the whole show, and Hannah was not one of them. Which means the whole season is a bit of a mess.
@Roberta It's doing my head in.
was I the only one with the really strong urge to reach inside the screen and tie Clay to a chair and make him listen to all the tapes in one go???
Very powerful stuff..
Unlikable characters, but great writing and direction. I was constantly wondering what would happen next.
Some of the trigger warnings at the beginnings of certain episodes were basically spoilers, though, and kinda blunted the impact of some of the scenes...
EDIT: After a few months of this sitting in the back of my head, the characters, especially the main character, how she handled things, and some of her choices really made it hard to care for her despite what happened to her in the story. It's a sad story with many truths relating to what happens in real life, but there were too many times when I found the main character to be selfish and unreasonable.
Watched it in a day... Simply couldn't stop
Very good series, but please inform yourself about certain triggers as it definitely heavy.
I can't stop watching
