Note: this is a spoiler-free review for all 13 episodes of 13 Reasons Why, now available on Netflix. For those who have finished the season and want to read my thoughts on the ending and some of the other major story developments, head over to the 13 Reasons Why: Spoiler Discussion page.
High school is a crappy, messy experience for the vast majority of people. That fact has never really changed, even with all the talk of Millennials being more sensitive and open-minded than any generation that preceded them. If anything, high school bullying has only become a more serious problem in recent years with the advent of social media and smartphones. Kids have always had a knack for being horrible to one another, but give them the anonymity of the Internet and a screen to shield themselves from the consequences of their actions, and suddenly you have teenagers driven to suicide thanks to revenge porn or targeted online harassment. 13 Reasons Why is perfectly positioned to explore bullying and high school culture in the post-Facebook era. It's an often depressing and even uncomfortable show to watch, but that only makes it all the more powerful.
