Can we just admit this show sucks and that Luca Guadagnino did one good movie - mostly on the shoulders of great performances - and mostly favors style (?) over substance?

Alison and Donnie Hendrix FOREVER. I will never stop cackling with laughter at this clip:
The opening 2 minutes literally explain that the rich and powerful destroyed the earth’s climate and then retreated onto their ark. It sounds to me your views on class and privilege need a massive reality check.
Didn’t really enjoy it like I thought I would. Everything seemed a bit forced: comedy, dialogue, chemistry, attempts to be - in terms of style - everything at once.
You may recognize the actor playing young Philip from Noah Baumbach’s recent Oscar-nominated dramedy Marriage Story.
Young Mike (with a younger actor and narration by Jonathan Banks)
The show is held together by some great acting but there’s internal logical inconsistencies that keep bugging me and make El Cuco less and less scary. It seems more like a bumbling idiot than some supernatural danger. Questions like, why does Claude feel the effects of El Cuco copying him when Terry didn’t? More…
Because Demoted Holt brings out Petty Holt, which is the best of all Holts.
Secret, secret! I’ve got a secret!
Full confession. I was a tad lost but fortunately a few internets got most of my questions answered ......... sort of.
Number 42 was watching “Mamma Mia, Here We Go Again” according to Janet’s list of things humans do to cope with relationships ending.
Yes! I’m late to this review, but scrolled just in case someone had already mentioned this. Thank you.
Ernie just rolling his eyes at Jeff’s “trolling” was a great reaction. The follow up with some actually useful advice was perfect. This was pretty much the rolling eyes at life episode while working through it. Except for Dud who probably doesn't know how to, but will take a ranch bullet for his friends in heartbeat.
Yeah I think it’s weird–at least ahistorical–that the headline here is that it ‘took a chainsaw to homophobic stereotypes’ and that the record is clearly defined as a ‘spoof’ of fears about homophobia. I’m guessing that is the tack the new liner notes take, but I don’t think it was seen that way at the time. The Frogs…
I rewatched some old seasons to remind me of things before coming to this season, which has enabled me to point out that this show seems to have totally forgotten that Maritza has a little girl!! She was mentioned quite a few times in the earlier seasons in connection with Maria’s and then Daya’s pregnancies and…
But there’s an unnerving sense throughout Euphoria that this is a kaleidoscope into modern teen life framed by and packaged for older viewers who become voyeurs of these teens. Look how much they swear, they have sex, they get high, the show practically screams over and over and over. It doesn’t feel edgy so much as…
I’ve been waiting 22 years for this clip to be relevant, and now it finally has happened!
It seems they tried each episode to “fix” things after the fact.
So, Jon told people he killed Dany? First I was thinking, OK, Jon is going to ride Drogon out of there! Then I was thinking ooh, maybe Arya can wear Dany’s face to get them out of there. Then I was thinking, ooh, Drogon flew away with her so the assumption would be that Dany just took a joyride somewhere giving Jon…
While watching the opening credits, I half-expected the very last thing to explode to be a tacky wig!
