"I finally understand the Ben Platt obsession! Flew through this in a weekend. Such a funny concept to apply heavy politics to a hs class presidential race. Another hit from the genius Ryan Murphy- ignore the critic reviews "

"It was okay. Obviously it was very political but it was just not on my side of politics so that bothered me a little. But overall was intresting. The characters are flawed but are supposed to be and you get frustrated almost constantly. :)"

"I just barely finished this and it was amazing. The character development is on point, Paytons feelings are so realistic. The characters are very realistic and all of their interactions are very well written and portrayed. My favorite character was definitely Alice, especially in season 2. *spoilers ahead* Alice really finds herself in season 2 and in a really realistic way, I love her and Astrids friendship when they both leave and when Astrid has an abortion. All in all, this is a great show. "
