There are many dark comedies teenage series available like Euphoria and the trend is becoming famous day by day. Jessica Barden’s make up less look really makes a difference and it is good to see such a neutral and ordinary-looking character is present.

James and Alyssa being suicidal in The End of the Fucking World Season 2

If you saw the first episode of the series, the. You must have felt how badly both of the characters wanted to get rid of life. They were suicidal, not caring anymore about life. However, 13 Reasons Why also get a lot of criticism for everything they do in their series. However, many people objected to the fact that they showed that they wanted to die as they were apart from each other. It makes sense to them being suicidal but it can send a wrong message to someone who is struggling with relationship problems. Otherwise, the dark vibe if the show was captivating.

Glorifying Murder and Murderers:

However, the direction of the whole series was remarkable. The way they portrayed the character of Clive was extraordinary as well. However, it was great that they gave a backstory to the character. The character was a rapist and he also tried to rape Alyssa when James killed him. However, in season 2 they showed how he fell for a girl name bonnie. She was from a troubled domestic background, however, as weird as the professor. But, it raised many eyebrows on Twitter. Fans came forward as some also said how sickly they we’re trying to glorify and justify the murderers. Some may not agree with this point. But, as mentioned before the show can send different wrong messages to the youth.

At least, there should be a message or special credits or warnings to tell the audience there are scenes that can be a little graphic for some people. However, Other than that the series looked flat and boring. The real thrill and purpose of the show is gone.

Interesting New Characters: The End of the Fucking World Season 2

However, the one good thing about the show is we are getting new and interesting characters like DC and Alyssa’s new boyfriend with whom she was about to marry. One way or another the story gets exciting and interesting episode after episode.

Story Suddenly Became boring:

The season one ending was epic and it had an element if trill in it. It was a cliffhanger and to be honest they could have done something else with the plot. It’s good that both of the characters are mature and fearless now but the plot could have been a little more interesting.

The thrill element is gone:

The element which made the show famous and well knows is literally gone. The connection both of the characters had with each other is vanished. They are more empty and shallow. The fact that in season one James and Alyssa had each other is cosmology changed. Now, they are losing the plot to add more characters which sometimes does not work out for many series. They should have a focus on the present characters rather than bringing characters after characters.
