In a featurette released this week, the young cast members of “Everything Sucks!” use handheld cameras to take viewers behind the scenes of the Netflix series.
The series focuses on the ’90s, which apparently seems like a long time ago to the people on the show.
Here’s what Netflix says in promo material released today:
“The 90s high school experience: Desperate, heartfelt, awkward, exciting, and free of smartphones. Set in the real life town of Boring, Oregon in 1996, Everything Sucks! is a quirky, funny coming of age story that revolves around Boring High School’s A/V Club and Drama Club – two crews of nerdy-edgy outsiders, who join forces to make a movie and endure the purgatory known as high school. The series stars Peyton Kennedy (American Fable, The Captive) and Jahi Winston (The New Edition Story) as students Kate Messner and Luke O’Neil, with Patch Darragh (Sully, Boardwalk Empire) and Claudine Nako (Grimm) as their respective parents. The 10-episode, half-hour dramedy is created by Ben York Jones (Like Crazy, Newness) and Michael Mohan (Save the Date, Pink Grapefruit), who will both serve as executive producers.”
Here’s the clip …
No. Everything sucks TODAY.
I bought a new washer and dryer. They sent over the wrong people 5 times before they sent the right installers. After they left, I found the washer was defective. I bought a new refrigerator at the same time, and within one week, I had a repairman out twice. No one takes any pride in craftsmanship, no one takes any responsibility for anything, People are so buried in their phones that they walk in front of buses and trains, and can’t be bothered with real interpersonal interaction. Consolidation has destroyed radio and TV is ignorantly following in their footsteps. Russia has completely subverted the government and the minds of the undereducated and one of the most popular “news” networks is nothing but a shill for them. And on and on and on….
Things were better in the 90s….
