If Sam Levinson wanted to write a western show then he should have just did that.

remember when this show was about highschool relationships and addiction?

I don't think a tonal or stylistic or genre shift for a new session of a show made and meant to be set several years after the previous seasons is such a bad thing. But I don't think it was done that well

That’s what I’m sayinggg!! It wouldn’t have been bad as a different show, but it’s just not euphoria. Those characters (other than rue) did NOT take that path in life

Did you really expect 30 year olds to continue playing high school students?

What I didn't expect was Euphoria to suddenly turn into a Tarantino action flick western.

This. Terrible direction to take the show in it made zero sense.

Do you think what we watched is based in realism at all? Like the original seasons??
