For the weekend of Feb. 17, Streamline recommends “The End of the F***ing World” in the top Netflix spot for the third time. As talked about last week, the British comedy about two teens kind-of, sort-of falling in love has been the best of Netflix’s offerings since its January release. Plus, this last week included Valentine’s Day — maybe you now want to watch a more f**ked-up version of a love story.
What’s New This Week
“Everything Sucks!” joins the list.
The show is a coming-of-age story focused on high schoolers in the 1990s. Netflix seems to be trying to recapture the success it had when adding “Freaks and Geeks” to the service. “Freaks and Geeks” aired in 1999 and 2000, but took place in the 1980s. That show only ran for one season, but ultimately became a cult classic as just about everyone involved with the show ― such as Judd Apatow, Paul Feig, Seth Rogen, Busy Philipps, Jason Segal and James Franco ― later achieved bigger stardom.
Early reviews of this show have been positive, but most critics don’t seem to think “Everything Sucks!” will become another cult classic. The episodes are short though and the nostalgia factor ― either for your high school years or the 1990s ― might be enough to make this worth checking out.
