The show really tries too hard to be edgy and fails at being cringey. The girl is supposedly 17 or maybe even 18 but looks barely over 14. The alleged psychopath looks like a total dweeb and a wanna-be killer whose balled barely dropped. It's like whoever did research on mental illnesses took the most unseemlingly behaviors and tried to mash them all into 2 people. Furthermore, they talk so slowly that even watching it a x2 speed it seems slow. After 2 episodes things have happened but they've happened slowly it seems like it's running in slow motion. A total snooze-fest.Read more
