      Season 1 – Everything Sucks!

      2018 Comedy Drama List
      72% Tomatometer 50 Reviews 91% Audience Score 500+ Ratings It's the 1990s in Boring, Ore., and groups of outcasts in Boring High School's AV and drama clubs are trying to brave the ups and downs of teenage life in a simpler world without smartphones and other 21st century technology. The two crews of nerdy students are frustrated that no one is taking them seriously so they decide the best way to make it through high school is to join forces and make a movie -- that'll help them get noticed. And there's also the usual teenage romance issues to deal with. Luke, the de facto ringleader of the AV club, falls for Kate, the principal's daughter, but she doesn't necessarily reciprocate the romantic feelings Luke has for her and is dealing with her own issues.

      Riese Bernard Autostraddle I really appreciated the relationships Kate and Luke had with their single parents, too. That was really well done and so tender. Oct 22, 2021 Full Review Heather Hogan Autostraddle I always appreciate a good ragamuffin group growing together but I think the last half of the season stalled out a little bit by spending time bonding the other characters. Oct 22, 2021 Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Yes, this is another sentimental coming-of-age comedy-drama but it's one that does become quite involving and affecting, thanks in large part to an achingly vulnerable performance by Canadian youngster Peyton Kennedy. Mar 30, 2018 Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof It has some good ideas, but it is diluted in a package that does not do the show justice. [Full Review in Spanish] Jul 27, 2019 Full Review John Hanlon John Hanlon Reviews This comedy is wonderfully-realized and geniunely heartfelt. Rated: 3.5/4 Nov 19, 2018 Full Review Ferdosa Abdi Geeks of Color Everything Sucks! is a delightful, heartfelt, and nostalgic trip to 1996's. Aug 10, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

      Movie G The show starts of slow, but sureley blossoms out to become a masterpiece. I grew up in a smaller town as kind of a not super popular kid, and if thats the type of show that you're looking for, this is it, the music to the characters to the environment fitted perfectly with that vibe. This show is a hidden gem! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/24 Full Review Luke R Seen this, and it was a meh show. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Raqib Z Heard that people loved the show so much that they compare it with veteran shows like Stranger Things and Degrassi. BUT WHERE!!!! I didn't find it that interesting in any meaningful way. In fact I found it no way near to how people praised the show. For me it was just enough to pass the time, even though I definitely could have watched something better to pass my time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/19/23 Full Review Audience Member FAVORITE SHOW EVER. THE ACTING IS AMAZING. it might seem a bit weird at first but by the second or 3rd episode, you'll love it. i promise Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a great show! I was really sad when I found out that it got cancelled, but maybe they'll reboot it. You can only hope! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This was a great tv for the 90s kids and was something for from nextfilx sad that it's cancelled Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
