Is it unreasonable to find the character of Hannah, the setup of the tapes, the way she speaks, incredibly irritating? Idc what you've been through hun, ditch the pretentious podcast shtick. Reminds me of Mr. Robot's Darlene but without the good cause. So whiney.

Half of the characters introduced so far seem stereotypes (naggy mom, uninterested dad - both of Clay - geeky kid that happens to be hella good-looking, dumb/asshole jock) and a lot of the dialogue is corny as hell.

Idk I'll stick with it but that was a hell of a bad pilot.

no lol

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

they could end up doing a "what if" type thing where it turns out she never killed herself? idk

Watched 2+3 after I posted and there was mild improvement but I can understand all of the moral criticisms of the show. Using something as random and trivial as 'She slapped me in a coffee shop and stopped being my friend :/' as justification for going all "it's your fault I'm dead, bitch" is grossly inappropriate.

Still think the acting is quite awful but then I guess that happens when you hire a cast that're 100% conveniently hot.

The show wouldn't be popular if they cast ugly actors.

[Deirdre]

one thing that really bugged me were how everyone's lips were so pink all the time. don't know what the make-up artist was thinking there

maybe it'll just be her voice as the narrator like in Desperate Housewives

"Yeah, well that assignment was given out by a dead person!"
..."in history...."

LMAO goodbye. I was liking ep 4 until this screamer.

Watched the first three episodes. I can understand why it's so gripping and people are fascinated with the show, because I am becoming myself. However, as much as I am really enjoying it I'm finding it REALLY hard to sympathise with Hannah. She's coming across as nothing but an attention seeking, melodramatic, annoying bitch. The first three reasons were all kinda blown out of proportion I thought? Idk I might just be a little insensitive but I can't say I'm feeling a great deal of empathy towards her.

I think that is part of the point of the show though, that its the little things that can really get to people, and we all handle things differently

Three episodes left now, I'm enjoying this and think it is rather binge-worthy but some of the tapes are really not worthy of being there.

Spoiler:

The one with Zach stealing the compliment cards

[Daniel-X]

Also, Sheri is the best character by far

Spoiler:

Idc if she's indirectly a murderer.

My friend got me into this a while ago around when it first came out, saying it's so great and getting so much attention/positive reviews... I thought it was alright. Although I've never really liked or watched dramas like that so I guess it's pretty good for what it is.

Some of the tapes were random but I guess it all fit in so meh.

My issue with this show is that I didn't like too many of the characters and that might be what they're trying to achieve but it's not great for watching. I like to have characters that I can root for / support on a show. The only ones I liked were Jeff, Sheri, Justin and I think that was about it.

Spoiler:

Jeff </3

she'll play a big part in s2 apparently

[Shaun]

Sheri, Tony and the guy Clay is tutoring are the only ones I like Jessica's ok, and the parents of Hannah are alright.

[JerseyWins]

Oh yeah I was planning to say, but forgot, that I actually think I like most of the adults on this show the most - even though they were kinda featured the least overall. (although Hannah's parents were featured a lot)

Jess was ok. If I was ranking the cast, she wouldn't be too far behind the few people I actually liked.

[Shaun]

I can't stand Clay's mom & dad. They couldn't have been written more stereotypically if they'd tried.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

tony is the absolute worst

[Daniel-X]

Tony, Justin and Alex are all horrific

[Deirdre]

the dude who played Alex couldn't act for ****

[Shaun]

The odds were pretty stacked against him tbf, portraying a heterosexual
