"Riverdale" is an odd comparison - like it or hate it, it was one of the most high-concept "teen shows" of all time. Absolutely bonkers.
Seemed like the best reference as a notoriously bad teen drama. That doesn’t mean I didn’t watch every episode. It’s fabulously, gloriously bad. Anything else I could name would be mediocre at most.
While I certainly wouldn't want every show to be like that, I would absolutely not call it "bad".
It was...transcendent.
It’s weird. It’s a weird show. It doesn’t fit in. And it doesn’t want to fit in.
