Unless I'm mistaken, hadn't seen a thread for this, and since it did premiere last night, figured one was appropriate.
Was a solid premiere in my opinion. The advisory warning at the beginning- even with the sex stuff- admittedly felt redundant to me. I mean, this is HBO. Wouldn't be this network if there wasn't some sex, violence, and mature content throughout. That said, Zendaya is good in the lead role and while I have no idea if this is how high schoolers party nowadays, it's a different slice of life that, as far as I know, you don't see portrayed that often on television.
Plus, the soundtrack and musical cues often reminded me of Insecure.
