Yo does anyone really hate how teen dramas are based EXCLUSIVELY around high school? Like, secondary school is really fuckin shit no cap. Basis of all my trauma, insecurities, shit like dat. And i was so excited cuz id be bingin shows like victorious and icarly (which obvs were crazy ass premises for bein nickelodeon shows lmao) and be hyper excited for crazy stuff to go down. But nah, just long, grey hours of being forced in a classroom in a subject you dont like, teachers who dont like you, and people who are annoyin af. But producers were like "yo, THIS is where all the ideas and moneys are goin".

I personally never really watch reality dramas, mainly cartoons, anime, adult swim shows, sci fi, underground movies, that stuff. I just dont see the appeal in somet as mundane as family issues, or workplace shit (unless its a comedy lmao) and DEFINITELY not school stuff. Like secondary school is so borin my dayz fam. None of that crazy shit happens ever, not even in college rn (college in the uk is the last 2 years of high school). Most people are focused on revision and schoolwork cuz everyones failing and if your not failing youve got ur job. If u dont got ur job ur being normal and doin shit like hobbies, hanging out w ur mates, shit like that. We dont really have en masse parties every week cuz those take the piss. Like a 600 quid speaker got broke at a motive i was at and we all got kicked out lol. And were not that focused on doin drugs all the time cuz thats expensive af, even if u want to. Were all poor lmao.

We do talk about it alot, sure but like, i think its cuz life imitates art to a degree. Weve always been doin taboo things, but because the skins lifestyle is practically glamourised people wanna do it more. And no lie, its fun. But all the baggage attached being glamourised to... naurrr man. I know mates who are recovering from bein addicted and on tt theres ppl talkin about the health issues they got from that life. Yo like i was w people who were practically about that shit and after that sesh i never talked to them again cuz they scared me that much (was fun tho, chillin in the woods at 10pm). Eh moderation n tingz ig.

Nah u know what would be great - shows based around teens, but not in high school. Like all i wanna do is get out of college and go to uni somewhere else cuz ded city and shit place init. Its like handcuffs, even tho im in like 3+ hours most days. I just think to myself on how, compared to shows like euphoria, skins, sex education (not even a bad show just for comparison), movies like Tekkonkinkreet, city of god, smoke signals, books like wonder all hit DIFFERENT. Like DIFFERENT DIFFERENT. It is mad. These are all media which talks about tweens, teenagers, young adults but completely seperated from school. Not in the unrealistic sense either, grounded to reality, whether it be in a realistic or surreal sense. They also connect to me more and make me more interested than a majority of these high school shows out here.

For example, smoke signals, a story about two indigenous boys from the coer d'alene reservation who travel across phoenix when one of the kids dad dies to get his ashes. That movie was insanely good. INSANELY good. I felt such a connection and my nerdy ass was analysing motifs and themes real time because the composure is so good. Themes and emphasis circulate around the nature of memories, dreams, stereotypes, culture and much more in the realms of the indigenous community in the US. Its been a year since i watched but i need to watch it again. Like as someone who has had a pretty shit upbringing, been kicked out by mum, have estranged my dad for ages until i came to live at his, the concept of what makes a family, how you see your parents compared to others or the culture really hits home, especially bein 2nd gen zambian uno. Like the emphasis on parenthood and the righteousness of parents is WILD.

Another movie i also wanna talk about is city of god too. Way more darker and grittier than smoke signals, taking place in Brazil instead of the south. Its a movie about the coming of age of many youths, specifically an aspiring photographer and an evil ass villain growin up in the favelas of rio de janeiro. It explores the cultural issues of gentrification, gangs, drug abuse, crazy ass shit which is exposed to kids at a young ass age. From what i remember its narrated from the photographer, and it makes SOOO MUCH sense bro. Like the dramaticisation of characters, the loose ends, how some characters fizzle out of the story, fizzle in, even the mindset of some really reminds you that this is comin from the eyes of the few who did survive - the photographer. He literally wants to be a journalist bro, like ofc hes gonna sensationalise. Whereas the thing in euphoria, whilst it was kinda cool with rue narrating everything, especially cinematography wise, kinda didnt make much sense as it went on. Like how u know about cals childhood girl, how (hate how he got an episode and not his sister or somet). Nate defo didnt tell her lmao.

What constrasts greatly with skins n euphoria n i think what breaks euphoria is how w skins, these guys are all a friend group, at least from what i know only watchin 1st gen. Whereas with euphoria its a weak link tyin all these guys. Euphoria falls in that sense cuz these guys arent really that close and are too different to be close. Not really in personas but like, maddy in season 1 literally just knew rue cuz she od thats it bro. If they were a close friendship group i think it wouldve worked way more. Like, call me crazy, if nate was established as a mate to rue who became a massive dick as we see in season 1 it would make a lot of sense as to why rue knows so mucha bout him. Hell it would probably clue us more into why hes so villainous (love that word). Cuz in city of god, for example, the photographer was in close proximity to the lil dice (my ass finally looked up his name 😂) by literally growin up on the same neighbourhood as him and even having so much respect as to have him photograph his gang.

Man u dont understand, my fav parts in euphoria was when the girlies were having fun and just bein themselves bro. Like the maddy kat and jules trio is something so beautiful even tho short lived. Hell, its so weird how theres the lack of proper proper friendships in euphoria. Sure u get banter and them acting cool, acting sexy, but never really acting stupid or dumb, or bein embarassing around each other apart from say jules and rue in season 1. Like even adults do that, and it shows the comfort ppl got around each other. Like jules and kat knew each other from summer camp or some shit, SO MUCH couldve been done with that. Couldve been that she was a mate of kat as well as rue, the bridge between rue and maddy, cassie, kat, that type of ish uno. Theyre both pretty alt as well, couldve had an episode of them finding their people. Euphoria is hole nother hellhole i will rant abt when i care but thats just one example.

I just find it dumb how this is really wat teen life is reduced too. Sure we have sex, do drugs, party, get into bad things but not ALL the time. And i kinda hate how that is what determines "fun" really, nowadays. Most of me and my mates times is spent in waterstones for gods sake 😂 there are some good shows which are pretty balanced on all aspects like on my block, and it shows that makin teen dramas about teen life really works. Brings in a more diverse array of backgrounds, knowledge. Yo id kill to be in a writing room for a show. Thatd be sick

Anyone whos made it this far, proud of you, u now know what my mates have to sit through lol.
