The End of the Fucking World: Season 1


Classic example of a show with an interesting trailer, interesting hook, interesting quirky vibe, that ramps down instead of up as its first season progresses. First episode, I'm completely invested, these weird high school characters, the stark deadpan British humor, the jump cuts and very very dark and twisted content. By the third or fourth episode, everything that made it interesting is already just background noise. Still a very easy watch, at eight half-hours, but probably not one that'll go down as essential TV in 2018. Try the first episode, at least, and you'll very quickly know whether or not this is worth your time.
