I will never understand how anyone liked this show.
I really never understood the appeal.
shareYou're too young.
shareShit acting and cringey writing.
shareIncredibly entertaining and trendsetting at the time.
shareThe show is too superficial. High school Brandon gets into a wreck while drunk, a major offense.
Ok, now this is getting interesting, how is Brandon going to cope with this setback? Here's what happens it shows him with a bike, that's all. By the next episode, it's like it never happened, Brandon has another car and is picking up his date at night. This lazy formula is repeated throughtout the series.
That's only the case in the first season.
shareActually, the acting can be pretty good sometimes.
The writing on the other hand... yeah, you may have a point there.
I'm a young person that started watching this show, and I see why people liked/like it. Literally lasted the whole decade, so it was decade defining.
shareI was in my thirties when it was first being shown, and I never got the appeal. You might say I'm too old now, but was thirties too old, or was it a kids' show.
