The acting is outstanding. Every character plays an insanely difficult role to uphold their character. This show is very hard to watch at times - and raises the question of "why?" often. Most negative reviews are coming from those who cannot acquire a taste for the vulgarity of this - which is understandable. This show is not for everyone. But it's undeniable that this show is flawlessly directed - and the actors are so impressive. This is not one of the best shows i've seen in terms of story line, but in terms of cinematography and acting this show is superb. Gotta give it up to Zendaya, too.

Euphoria is an American teen drama television series created and principally written by Sam Levinson for HBO and based on the Israeli miniseries of the same name created by Ron Leshem and Daphna Levin. The series stars Zendaya, Maude Apatow, Angus Cloud, Eric Dane, Alexa Demie, Jacob Elordi, Barbie Ferreira, Nika King, Storm Reid, Hunter Schafer, Algee Smith and Sydney Sweeney in main roles. The series follows Rue Bennett (Zendaya), a troubled teenage drug addict who struggles to get sober, find her place in the world, and adjust to her relationships after rehab. Though Rue is the central focus of the show, the beginning of most episodes provides backstories for the rest of the main characters.[4]

Euphoria's executive producers include Levinson, Zendaya, Ron Leshem, and Gary Lennon. The series is filmed at Ulysses S. Grant High School in Los Angeles, California, Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California, and Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. Outside California, it is filmed at Warner Bros. Studios in Leavesden, Hertfordshire, and in Dublin, London, New York City, Rome, and Singapore. The series has received generally positive reviews, with praise for its cinematography, score, performances of the cast, and approach to its mature subject matter. It has also been a subject of controversy for its nudity and sexual content, which critics found excessive due to the high school setting and its teenage characters. It is the fourth most-watched series in HBO history, behind Game of Thrones, The Last of Us, and House of the Dragon. The show additionally shares the same universe as Levinson's 2023 television series The Idol which was also the subject of much controversy and widely panned.[5][6]

The first season of Euphoria premiered on June 16, 2019. Two one-hour specials were broadcast in December 2020 and January 2021. The second season premiered on January 9, 2022. In February 2022, the series was renewed for a third season. Filming was halted due to the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes and the unexpected deaths of Angus Cloud and Kevin Turen. The third season of Euphoria began production in December 2023.

The series has received numerous accolades, including a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series. For her performance, Zendaya has won two Primetime Emmy Awards, a Critics' Choice Television Award, and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her performance as Rue. Sweeney, Colman Domingo, and Martha Kelly have also received Emmy nominations for their acting, with Domingo winning Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for his performance as Ali.

On Christmas Eve after her relapse, an intoxicated Rue meets with Ali at a diner, and they talk about their addictions. Rue admits that she willingly relapsed; Ali reminds her that addiction is a disease and emphasizes the importance of committing to a cause greater than herself. Rue attempts to blame Jules for her relapse, but Ali points out that Rue had been saving the pills she took, suggesting that she was never serious about staying clean. He also notes that Rue never officially acknowledged her relationship with Jules.

Production[edit]

Conception[edit]

Creator, writer, director, and showrunner Sam Levinson in 2018

In 2006, Sam Levinson began drafting different versions of what eventually became Euphoria, based on his experience with drugs as a teenager.[3] He was invited to a meeting with HBO about an adaptation of the 2012 Israeli television series Euphoria created by Ron Leshem, Daphna Levin, and Tamira Yardeni.[32] In 2019, Levinson said HBO's head of drama, Francesca Orsi, liked the "raw and honest" portrayal of drug use and other teenage problems in the Israeli series.[33] In a press release, Orsi described the series as "Kids meets Trainspotting" with no parental supervision.[34]

The concept for Euphoria was based on Levinson's personal experiences as a teenager and his struggles with anxiety, depression, and drug addiction.[35][36] In a meeting with Orsi, he recalled: "We just had a conversation about just life and her life and my life and various struggles that, you know, we've been through and things and she said, 'Great, you know, well go and write that' and I said 'What?' and she goes 'Everything we just talked about'".[32] Levinson has also cited teenage anxiety as a whole as an influence for the series: "There is this consistent anxiety that I think exists in this generation that I think informed the whole filmmaking process."[37]

In June 2017, it was reported that the series was in development at HBO.[38]

Production team[edit]

Euphoria is a co-production of The Reasonable Bunch, A24, Little Lamb, DreamCrew, and HBO Entertainment.[39] It has 16 executive producers, including Levinson, Leshem, Levin, Yardeni, Hadas Mozes Lichtenstein, Mirit Toovi, Yoram Mokadi, Gary Lennon, Zendaya, Canadian rapper Drake, Future the Prince, Ravi Nandan, and Kevin Turen.[38][40][41] The pilot episode, "Pilot", was directed by Augustine Frizzell.[42]

Levinson has served as Euphoria's showrunner since its premiere, and has written every episode.[41] He has directed every episode except the Pilot and the season one episodes "03 Bonnie and Clyde" and "The Next Episode",[42][43] which were directed by Jennifer Morrison and Pippa Bianco.

The production was given a pilot order on March 13, 2018,[44] and on July 30, it was announced that HBO had given the production a series order.[41] The series was renewed for a second season on July 11, 2019.[45]

Out of respect for the actors and extras involved, filming of nudity was conducted on a closed set, and for sex scenes, an intimacy coordinator was used.[46][47][48]

Production for season two was scheduled to start in the second quarter of 2020, with the first table read on March 11,[49] but the COVID-19 pandemic delayed the production.[50][51] Production resumed in March 2021, with filming from April to November.[52] HBO defended the series against allegations of a toxic work environment during the production of the second season, writing: "The well-being of cast and crew on our productions is always a top priority. The production was in full compliance with all safety guidelines and guild protocols. It's not uncommon for drama series to have complex shoots, and COVID protocols add an additional layer. We maintain an open line of communication with all the guilds, including SAG-AFTRA. There were never any formal inquiries raised."[53]

Before the series' second season, HBO ordered two specials. The first, "Trouble Don't Last Always", premiered on December 6, 2020, and follows Rue as she deals with the aftermath of leaving Jules at the train station and relapsing.[54] The second, "Fuck Anyone Who's Not a Sea Blob", premiered on January 24, 2021, and follows Jules's side of the story.[55] The second episode was co-written and executive produced by Levinson and Hunter Schafer.[56] HBO announced that the special episodes would air two days early on HBO Max.[57]

On February 4, 2022, HBO renewed the series for a third season.[58] In September 2022, HBO's CEO Casey Bloys said the series could go beyond four seasons, and would not end after season three.[59] Production of season three was set to start in February 2023,[60] aiming for a late 2023 release,[61] but according to a Vogue interview with Apatow, filming was set to start in the second half of 2023.[62] On a podcast, series costume designer Heidi Bivens said that preparations would begin in May 2023, with filming starting in June 2023.[63] The third season production was disrupted by the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike,[64] with Jeremy O. Harris calling out to David Zaslav, saying, "He's not a scab. David Zaslav, make a deal. That's what I'll say about Season 3 of 'Euphoria.' Make a deal, David. It's easy. Just come to that table."[65] In May 2023, HBO confirmed the season would premiere by 2025.[66] The production for season three started in December 2023.[67]

Casting[edit]

From left to right: The cast includes Zendaya, Maude Apatow, Jacob Elordi, Storm Reid, and Sydney Sweeney.

In June 2018, it was announced that the pilot would star Zendaya, Storm Reid, Maude Apatow, Astro, Eric Dane, Angus Cloud, Alexa Demie, Jacob Elordi, Barbie Ferreira, Nika King, Hunter Schafer, and Sydney Sweeney.[68] In October, Algee Smith was cast to replace Astro as McKay, and Austin Abrams had also been cast.[69] Astro reportedly quit the series after shooting the pilot as he was uncomfortable with the sexual content involving his character.[70]

In April 2020, Kelvin Harrison Jr. joined the cast, but by May 2021, he had dropped out due to scheduling conflicts as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[71][72] In August, Dominic Fike, Minka Kelly, and Demetrius "Lil Meech" Flenory Jr. were added to the cast.[73] On August 24, 2022, Ferreira announced via Instagram story that she had decided to leave the series.[74] On April 5, 2023, she said: "I just felt like, maybe it's like I overstayed my welcome a little bit. So for me, I actually felt good to be like, 'Okay, I get to not worry about this, and we both don't get too worried about this', because it's exhausting."[75]

Filming[edit]

From left to right, the Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City and Grant High School near Los Angeles, locations where scenes from the series were filmed.

Primary photography takes place in Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California. Grant High School in Los Angeles stands in for the fictional East Highland High School.[76] The exterior of the Bennett family house that appears in the pilot of season 1 is located at 5611 Shenandoah Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90056, USA. According to the California Film Commission, the first season of Euphoria received $8,378,000 in incentive tax credits. The first season was filmed over a combined total of 104 days; the second season's production costs totaled $96,685,000 after a total of 176 filming days. Subsequently, the second season received a $19,406,000 tax credit for employing over 15,000 people in California.[77] Zendaya received $500,000 per episode in the first two seasons and will receive $1,000,000 per episode in the third season.[78][79][80][81]

From left to right, for season one, Del Amo Fashion Center, L.A. County Fair, Moonlight Rollerway, and Union Station were used as filming locations.

For season three, Rue's sobriety journey, Zendaya opened up about exploring characters outside high school,[82] with the filming locations of Dublin, London, New York City, Rome, Singapore, and Warner Bros. Studios lots in Burbank and Leavesden,[83] and a time jump to 2024.[84]

From left to right, for season three, the locations of Dublin, London, New York City, Rome, and Singapore will be used as filming locations.

Visual style[edit]

Euphoria employs hyper-stylized cinematography, set design, costume design, and editing, which presents an "emotional realism" that captures the inner perspectives of the series's adolescent characters.[85][86][87] The first season was shot digitally using the Arri Alexa 65 camera.[88] The two special episodes and second season were shot on Kodak 35mm film stock, primarily Ektachrome, which cinematographer Marcell Rév attributed to a desire to invoke "some sort of memory of high school".[89]

Use of color and lighting[edit]

The series often utilizes saturated colors, notably of purple and blue, to communicate the emotional state of its characters. Shades of green and yellow regularly symbolize distress, while purple and blue convey an elated, feverish atmosphere.[87] In shooting both day and night exteriors, cinematographer Marcell Rév relied on an exaggerated orange-blue color scheme, translated in the use of backlights and tungsten lights, to create visuals that feel "almost dreamlike". LED lights and SkyPanels were used in several interior shoots to display bright and vivid colors of purple and blue.[90] The second season of the Euphoria was shot on film, specifically in Kodak's Ektachrome and Vision3 500T, which distorted how set lighting looked on camera.[90][91]

Camera movement[edit]

"For camera movements, we really wanted it to have a certain energy that ties the different storylines together. So, I would say the camera movement is the glue in the show, that glues it together" said Rév on using an energized design element that stands out.[85] Extensive whip pans and tracking shots were employed to portray intimacy, growth, and interrelationship. In the fourth episode of first season "Shook Ones Pt. II", a 2-minute tracking shot, achieved through the use of a dolly, a technocrane, and four camera stitches, was "to introduce a space where all [the] characters were present, and somehow connect them in one shot".[85][90]

Costume design[edit]

The costume design of Euphoria is arguably the series most notable and influential hallmark.[92][93] The characters of the series are regularly shown in chic, flamboyant outfits that serve as "plot devices and psychological profiles" to represent their personalities and character arcs. For example, in the first season, costume designer Heidi Bivens dressed Jules, a transgender woman, in a wardrobe consisting of bright pastels and tennis skirts, inspired by the character's interest in anime and fantasy, to embody "the youthful optimism that comes with a fresh start" and her journey to "conquer" femininity, but as the character explores her gender identity and becomes more disillusioned between the first and second seasons, she "slips into a slightly muted, darker and more androgynous" wardrobe.[94]

Analysis[edit]

The visual aesthetics of Euphoria has been compared to the German expressionism movement of the early 20th century.[95]

Music[edit]

Labrinth composed original music for the series.

Euphoria's score was composed by English singer, songwriter, and record producer Labrinth.[96] The song "All for Us", performed by Labrinth and Zendaya, is hinted at throughout season 1 before being performed as a large musical number at the end of the season finale.[97] Labrinth makes an appearance in the series alongside Zendaya to perform their song "I'm Tired".[98]

When you look back to your teenage days, it feels semi-magical but semi-crazy and semi-psychotic. I wanted to make sure the music felt like those things.

—Labrinth to Rolling Stone[96]

The series also makes extensive[99] use of popular music, including hip hop, trap, R&B, experimental, indie rock, standards and doo-wop, with some episodes featuring over 20 songs.[100][101] For their work on Euphoria's first season, music supervisors Jen Malone (who also supervises the FX series Atlanta) and Adam Leber won the 2020 Guild of Music Supervisors Award for Best Music Supervision in a Television Drama.[102]

Scores[edit]

Main articles: Euphoria (Original Score from the HBO Series) and Euphoria Season 2 Official Score (From the HBO Original Series)

The score album for the first season was released by Sony Masterworks through Milan Records on October 4, 2019, for digital download.[103] The album was also released on vinyl on January 10, 2020.[104] The score has been described as "the holy lilt of gospel, orchestral and electronic" and was favorably reviewed by Variety.[105]

The score album for the second season was released by Columbia Records on April 22, 2022, in digital and physical formats. Like the previous one, it was composed and produced by Labrinth.[106]

In an interview with IndieWire, Labrinth stated of the soundtrack's religious undertones: "We spoke about using organs because of a lot of the religious influences in the show, especially with Rue. We wanted a lot of the sounds edging towards a religious sound. And because I love both Pentecostal and Catholic sounds, I kind of was like trying to merge them both together."[106]

Season 1[edit]

Zendaya received acclaim for her performance as Rue Bennett and won two Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

Euphoria's first season was met with a positive response from critics, with praise for its acting (specifically from Zendaya, Sweeney, and Domingo), storyline, visuals, and approach to mature subject matter. However, it met with controversy for the amount of drug use and nudity throughout the show. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has an approval rating of 80%, with an average rating of 7.4/10 based on 100 critical reviews.[127] The site's critical consensus summary states, "a uniquely challenging and illuminating series, held together by a powerfully understated performance from Zendaya".[127] The review aggregator website Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 68 out of 100, based on 26 critics.[128] Ben Travers of IndieWire praised the show's authenticity, how HBO "grounds itself in stark reality", and Zendaya's performance and narration.[131] Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter noted Zendaya's performance and the handling of the subject matter.[132] Pilot Viruet of Observer called the show "visually stunning" and praised the ensemble's performance, but criticized the writing as "shaky, filled with clunky lines", and recommended that the show "keep its focus narrow".[133] Jamila Stewart of Vogue stated that Euphoria still has a palpable impact on where fashion trends fall today.[134]

Specials[edit]

The first of the series's two special episodes, "Trouble Don't Last Always", received widespread critical acclaim for its writing, performances, and shift in tone and content from the first season. On Rotten Tomatoes, the episode has a score of 97%, with an average rating of 8.44/10 based on 23 critical reviews. The website's critical consensus reads, "Euphoria slows down the tempo without losing the beat in a special episode that pairs a raw Zendaya with a steady Colman Domingo to create small screen magic."[135] On Metacritic, the episode has a weighted average score of 84 out of 100, based on 10 reviews.[136]

The second of the two special episodes, "Fuck Anyone Who's Not a Sea Blob", also received critical acclaim, with particular praise for Schafer's performance and writing, as well as the episode's distinctive directorial approach, emotional resonance, and exploration of trans identity. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a score of 96%, with an average rating of 7.9/10 based on 22 critical reviews. The site's critical consensus reads, "By centering on Jules' journey, Fuck Anyone Who's Not a Sea Blob adds welcome depth to her character and gives Hunter Schafer plenty of room to shine."[137] On Metacritic, the episode has an average weighted score of 78 out of 100, based on 10 reviews.[138]

Season 2[edit]

Hunter Schafer and Dominic Fike received praise for their performances as Jules and Elliot in season 2.

The series's second season received mostly positive reviews, with critics praising the performances and visuals but criticizing the pace and characterization. On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season received a score of 80%, with an average rating of 7.05/10 based on 110 reviews. The site's critical consensus reads, "As willfully provocative as ever in its second season, Euphoria still isn't for all tastes—but when its addictive ingredients are mixed just right, the results remain intoxicating."[129] Metacritic assigned the season a score of 74 out of 100 based on 19 reviews.[130] IndieWire's Ben Travers criticized the sexual content but appreciated Zendaya's performance, writing, "After seven of the eight episodes, Season 2 is exactly what a drama seeking to spark conversation fears most: It's skippable."[139] Rebecca Nicholson for The Guardian gave the second season two out of five, writing, "this long-awaited second season has decided to lean into its crueller instincts".[140] USA Today's Patrick Ryan praised the performances of Zendaya, Schafer, and Fike, but wrote that "the new episodes are much less captivating when they shift their focus away from Rue and Jules".[141]

Ratings[edit]

The series’s premiere averaged 577,000 viewers in its time slot, a number that increased to one million after the same-night linear replay and preliminary viewing on HBO Go/Now. The hashtag #EuphoriaHBO trended number one in the US and number three worldwide on Twitter after the premiere.[142] The first season was the most watched of HBO's series in the 18–49 demographic[143] with episodes averaging 6.6 million viewers.[144] Season 2 premiere drew 2.4 million viewers across all HBO platforms, a series high. It also marked the strongest digital premiere night performance for any episode of an HBO series since HBO Max's launch,[145] until it was dethroned by House of the Dragon.[146][147] At the end of its second season, it became the second-most-watched HBO series since 2004 (behind Game of Thrones), with episodes averaging 16.3 million viewers[144] until it was surpassed by House of the Dragon.[148] According to Variety, Euphoria became the most tweeted television series of the decade in the US, with more than 30 million tweets related to the series during the second season, 51% more than during Season 1.[149]

Accolades[edit]

Main article: List of awards and nominations received by Euphoria

Concerns over mature content[edit]

Some commentators and organizations have criticized the series's explicit content, including self-harm, excessive drug use, and sexual material,[158] content present in other HBO series, including Big Little Lies, Game of Thrones, Girls, Luck, and Westworld.[159] The conservative media advocacy group Parents Television and Media Council called the series "dark, depraved, degenerate and nihilistic", and asked HBO and AT&T to end it.[160] Common Sense Media, which provides information on media's suitability for children, also noted the strong adult themes and advised against teenage viewership.[161] One scene involving more than 30 shots of penises was criticized by both critics and supporters, with Esquire calling it "pointlessly gratuitous".[162] The Guardian wrote that writers and producers should find new and different ways to shock audiences.[163] In 2022, Minka Kelly said she felt discomfort at the quantity of nude scenes in the series.[164] Drug Abuse Resistance Education criticized the series's depiction of drug use, saying that it "chooses to misguidedly glorify and erroneously depict high school student drug use addiction ... and other destructive behaviors as common in today's world".[165] Samuel Getachew wrote in a Culture piece for Vogue that the series' depictions of trauma aestheticize it in a way that his "generation is particularly vulnerable to".[166] In 2023, Colman Domingo told that he felt the accusations by other series actors of a toxic workplace due to lengthy shoots and the alleged mistreatment of actors, as well as onset chaos during the second season are overblown.[167]

Responses[edit]

Levinson acknowledged the controversies over the series's content, saying that some parents will be "totally fucking freaked out".[168] Augustine Frizzell, who directed the pilot episode, said that the explicit content should help foster a conversation between parents and teenagers.[169] Levinson also said that he hopes the series "opens up a dialogue" due to the "disconnect between parents and teenagers".[33] Zendaya issued a warning both before the series and season 2 premiere about its "deeply emotional subject matter".[170] HBO voiced objections to some sexually graphic scenes, but said it would not interfere with the series' "creative process".[168] The series includes viewer discretion warnings and a website for mental health and other support group resources.[171][172] The series has reportedly been censored for sexual or violent content in countries like Malaysia,[173] the Philippines,[174] Singapore,[175] and Vietnam.[citation needed]

An American adaptation of the Israeli show of the same name, "Euphoria" follows the troubled life of 17-year-old Rue, a drug addict fresh from rehab with no plans to stay clean. Circling in Rue's orbit are Jules, a transgender girl searching for where she belongs; Nate, a jock whose anger issues mask sexual insecurities; Chris, a football star who finds the adjustment from high school to college harder than expected; Cassie, whose sexual history continues to dog her; and Kat, a body-conscious teen exploring her sexuality. As the classmates struggle to make sense of their futures, the series tackles the teenage landscape of substance-enhanced parties and anxiety-ridden day-to-day life with empathy and candor.

Euphoria misses the mark by using sexual assault and racial microaggressions as the very foundation for a Black male teenager character.

I think is really well done, well considered and reflects the problems a lot of young people are having today. And it also looks great.

Euphoria's nihilism feels as contrived as a Burger King ad.

Washington Blade

Although Euphoria has already been picked up for a second season, there’s not a lot of reason to spend time with the first. Given the intensity of each episode, binge-watching is not recommended.

Refinery29

[Euphoria] started out as a TV juggernaut, a premium example of prestige television, and a vessel for Zendaya’s then largely underserved talent that led to a history-making Emmy win...

Loud and Clear Reviews

Euphoria unflinchingly uncovers the terrors thrust upon today’s teens with raw realism, requiring its audience’s rapt attention (just as Zendaya's livewire lead performance does).

There's a crazy amount of effort put into the cinematography and it looks cool. But overall it felt more like watching a music video than a TV show. More vibes than plot

My dissatisfaction with the show stems not from its engagement with addiction, which is actually its most intriguing element, but from its narrative shortcomings. The series is excessively self-indulgent, with clumsy efforts to stir interest through characters meant to be iconic, yet these attempts quickly grow wearisome. Instead of illustrating the reasons behind their iconic status, we are merely informed of it as they dramatically walk down school corridors or showcase dance moves. Additionally, it's off-putting how the characters seem to find pleasure in their own distress. "Euphoria" loses its satirical edge as it becomes more engrossed in itself than in critiquing the social media-centric generation it intends to represent. It neglects the fundamental storytelling principle of "show, don’t tell."

Soo good, but dark. I really want to see the next season, but I have to be in the right headspace to let myself go back. But, I mean soooo good.

Im in love with this show. Every episode is worth watching and so is every season. It's hilarious, dramatic, very dark and sad. Though its content mainly revolves around sex and drug abuse and trust me they show a lot of that. It's still beautiful. I'm loving every second of this show and I can't wait for season 3

As the classmates struggle to make sense of their futures, the series tackles the teenage landscape of substance-enhanced parties and anxiety-ridden day-to-day life with empathy and candor.
