They act like they are the first generation brought up in an era where kids were overly saturated with media, had Rx drugs foisted upon them for all manner of real or imagined 'disorders' like 'adhd', turned to drugs and alcohol to combat the pain and ennui of life and engage in casual sex all in a quest to momentarily have 'euphoria' to dull the pain. The main character even talks about how she was born on 9/11 into a "crazy new world" - well, at least you weren't the generation sent over to Iraq and Afghanistan to get blown up. She then goes on to say "I had the typical middle class life" - oh, the horror! The horror of suburban America! No one has ever commented on this before!

Their entire generational oeuvre so far seems to be centered around a narcissistic false sense of 'uniqueness', a sense of existential ennui and anxiety from being in an increasingly fast moving world, all the while having innovated in no real way and not done or gone through any real unique experience with which to attribute their judgmental attitude. They even talk about how college is pointless because "climate change will destroy the world soon". LJL at these privileged, trite idiots re-doing bored, entitled apathy as "art".

Despite its marketing saying otherwise, Euphoria is not representative of Gen Z. All the behaviors like teenage drinking, drug use, pregnancy, even driving are in free fall, and have been steadily declining for decades. Euphoria seems to be trying to bring back teenage misbehavior, or at least convince people that it's normal, but I suspect that it will have trouble doing that.

It seems like a weird attempt to take a show like Skins in Britain, "Gen Z-ize" it and yet it ends up totally uninteresting and reductive.

The movie Kids from 1995 was way more frightening and riveting.

similar observation:

"Is Euphoria a nightmare dispatch from the front lines of the latest teen revolution? That’s its pose, as was the case for Kids, but I’m skeptical: Teen misbehavior of various kinds seems to be trending steadily downward, and anyway fretting about what our teens are getting up to probably goes back at least as far as Little House on the Prairie. Euphoria feels more like the work of a slightly desperate middle-aged writer doing his best to cram as many outlandishly lurid events into each episode as he possibly can with an eye toward totally f***ing freaking out parents, who after all are the ones who pay for the HBO subscriptions. Maybe they’ll be so wound up they won’t be able to tear their eyes away. I’m not necessarily hearing a teen cry for help, but I can definitely hear a writer’s cry to be noticed in a universe of 500 scripted shows. HBO folk told the Hollywood Reporter they hope to make Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why “look like an after-school special,” and “we’re not trying to do Gossip Girl.” The standard cited is not the lived experience of any actual teens but the fictional teens of other TV worlds. Teens may watch the show, but I doubt they’ll find that the show captures their lives any more than Game of Thrones does."

Because Gen Z bros are even more boring. All depressed wanting to kill themselves but they just MEGAPOST and stay at home instead of going to wild parties and benders like in the show. But no one would watch a show about the average XO poster, sitting in their dark room 14 hours a day posting youtube comments until they kill self.

I thought Euphoria was great.

i haven't watched it yet but everything you're describing is actually associated with ARE millennial generation

i assume this is our equivalent of out of touch boomers making shows about their idyllic lives for young gen xers back in their day

there are a lot of cultural similarities between millennials and Gen Z but there are a lot of major differences that lurk iceberg style just underneath the surface of popular discussion

it's hard to pin Z culture down just because (somehow) they're even less expressive, more poorly educated, and more autistic on average than we were
