Euphoria

HBO • Apr 29 • 2019
DramaCrime

An American adaptation of the Israeli show of the same name, "Euphoria" follows the troubled life of 17-year-old Rue, a drug addict fresh from rehab with no plans to stay clean. Circling in Rue's orbit are Jules, a transgender girl searching for where she belongs; Nate, a jock whose anger issues mask sexual insecurities; Chris, a football star who finds the adjustment from high school to college harder than expected; Cassie, whose sexual history continues to dog her; and Kat, a body-conscious teen exploring her sexuality. As the classmates struggle to make sense of their futures, the series tackles the teenage landscape of substance-enhanced parties and anxiety-ridden day-to-day life with empathy and candor.

Why This Pick

Euphoria brings the same bruised, addictive relationship intensity as Tell Me Lies, with jealousy, betrayal, and messy intimacy driving scenes that feel hard to look away from. The show bounces between raw present-tense crises and flashbacks that reframe choices, so the emotional fallout lands fast and stays personal, not procedural.

Beef poster

Beef

Netflix • Apr 16 • 2023
ComedyDrama

Road rage ensues after a parking-lot incident, resulting in a bitter feud between the two antagonists. The vendetta between them and the lengths they'll go to in order to wreak revenge on each other spirals out of control, jeopardizing everything and everyone in their lives.

Why This Pick

Beef turns wounded pride into a darkly funny spiral, the same kind of escalating obsession that makes Tell Me Lies feel dangerous even when nothing “big” happens on screen. Petty incidents ignite retaliation and drag in everyone around the two leads, with sharp jokes cutting through real emotional damage, then it speeds up into mutual self-destruction.
