I can't believe I've wasted my time on this.

It starts of with the cringiest, most insufferable couple of teenagers I have ever seen in any series, movie, or a videogame. Think 13 Reasons Why, but ten times worse. I just can't get interested in their ideas and motivations because they annoy me so much.
Speaking of 13 Reasons Why: yeah, the characters were annoying there as well sometimes, but that show has a great overarching story. This one, does not. Yeah, kids ran away, did some stupid stuff, got into some unfortunate events, but all this lacks focus.

The first half of the season tries to be both funny and deep, to show lost teenagers going through emotions. Except it can't do any of those things, dramatic events lose their weight, and, coupled with annoying main characters (did I already tell you how insufferable they are? Well they really are), the show turns into an unfunny stream of absurdity.

The second half is basically just "yeah, whatever, let's go wild". This works better, the kids are not that annoying anymore, and it has some moments I genuinely enjoyed (the petrol station scene is all-around awesome). But I'm already not invested enough into the characters and the story to enjoy this as a whole. And because of that, once again, all drama of the ending is lost on me.

It does have nice soundtrack though. Can't take that away from it.
