I just finished watching this show last night and I still feel something I’m not quite able to put into words. I had previously read some criticism about the show regarding how negative it could be, impactful on teenagers and how inappropriate it was to romanticize the notion of suicide in this manner. Romanticize?! Well, I had only watched one episode back when I read all of this, and I was sort of in agreement.
