the show opened with her first breath and closed with her last.
a show about addiction lost one of its own to it - then gave its lead the same ending. Rue's last dream wasn't just goodbye to a character. it was goodbye to Angus too.
female protagonists vs misogynistic male writers butchering their storylines in the final season and deciding the only acceptable ending for their character is death
Isso daqui foi CINEMA PRA CRL!!! Ali foi foi GIGANTE. Nunca vibrei tanto com uma cena de Euphoria. Principalmente quando percebi que o Bishop tinah sabotado a arma do Alamo, que teria trapaceado... Mds que coisa ABUSRDA FOI ESSA CENA! #euphoria
lembrei dessa entrevista da zendaya em 2022 e ela sempre demonstrou o quanto esperava uma história de superação para a rue e que pudesse ser uma mensagem de esperança para pessoas passando pelo mesmo... bem nítido o porquê dela ter ignorado a divulgação dessa temporada nova
fentanyl does kill. stop taking these pills, stop doing coke. sam levison did a lot of fucked up shit this season but the thing he got right is how fentanyl is taking everyone and everything n he took a major tv show to highlight how bad the problem is getting
Tirando a emoção da equação, os fatos continuam os mesmos: se Euphoria acabasse exatamente aqui, seria lembrada como uma das maiores séries da história da televisão. A primeira temporada é um marco, mesmo não sendo o gênero que mais me atrai. #euphoria
what really makes me irate is this season didn’t need to fucking exist. nothing that happened this season added ANY value to what happened w the characters in the first seasons
sam levinson dragged this out for 4 years just to make a whole new show and completely fuck it all up
