Great post, as always. Really appreciated how you highlighted ED’s impacting LGBT youth as I was not aware of that.

Regarding the question I would say the teenage drama I enjoyed most of the last ten years is Riverdale. I started watching it in on a whim when I saw the trailer half expecting it to be cancelled and was very surprised to see how much the show blew up in popularity. I’m still working my way through it and even though the final season far is a major dip in quality from the first few that were genuinely good there is still something unique about the show that brings me back to it.

"Riverdale" is really good. I lost interest in the mix of other shows, but liked the dark bent to it and I've always been a fan of the comic book series!

Can't believe I missed this. My archive hopping is in need of work. That said, your reviews are so good. So thorough and considered, that even if I don't think I want to watch the show, I still want to know what happens!

Aw. Thank you so much! There’s a vast archive and I can help by surfacing some of these goodies.

Just watched the first 3 episodes of Riverdale, season 1. It's so dark!

I remember watching a few episodes and getting into it. It's good - You're preparing for "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder" - It's a good aperatif :)
