Screener Squad: Euphoria Season 2

Euphoria Season 2 Review

EUPHORIA SEASON 2 SERIES REVIEW

Euphoria is back with season 2 and the further examination of the life of an American teen. But not, like, the life of an American teen you see on network shows where hard lessons are learned and the melodrama is scored by whatever pop song is currently topping the Gen-Z charts. Nah, this is HBO, so there are dongs, drugs, ample amounts of cursing, even more dongs, sex, more drugs, and both the misery and darkly humorous moments of life, all filmed, acted, and edited in an impressive cinematic quality. Season 2 picks up where the previous ended, with Zendaya continuing her multi-award-winning performance as Rue, now fully relapsed and digging her own grave, Cassie hooking up with one of the evilest fictional TV characters since Joffrey, and Lexi and Fezco bonding in just the cutest moments amid the violence and pain. Shak, Bradly, and T.C. discuss the season and the exploration of identity, trauma, drugs, family, friendships, and love, all three of them eternally grateful to not have had any of these experiences in their own life. Yeesh.

YOUR REVIEWERS

 

Shakyl Lambert (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub, Highly Suspect Reviews)

Hailing from the rough and gritty streets of…a suburb just outside Toronto, Shak has thrived on becoming a walking encyclopedia of millennial pop culture. From a very early age, he gained an adoration for film, television and video games that hasn’t subsided in the years since. Now a media studies student, he has dedicated his life to gaining as much knowledge of useless trivia as his brain will allow, all while perpetually wearing earbuds like a hip-hop Baby Driver. If he isn’t gaming or trying to watch a dozen things at once, you can catch him getting overly hyped about everything from new music to wrestling on Twitter.

 

 

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)

Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
