Heartstopper creator and book author Alice Oseman addresses comparisons to Euphoria, making a broader point about teen shows and their execution.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman talks about comparisons to Euphoria, making a broader point about teen shows. Netflix's popular Heartstopper adaptation recently debuted season 2, focusing on the blossoming relationship between Charlie and Nick while expanding its focus to the larger ensemble. It is generally regarded as an upbeat show, and it's been praised for its positive approach to representation.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter to discuss Heartstopper season 2, Oseman directly addressed where the Netflix show stood in comparison to other shows like HBO's Euphoria. The creator and author of the books on which Heartstopper is based pushed back on the idea that "there’s a sort of scale of teen media and Euphoria is on one end and we’re on the other end.
What surprised me the most was the kind of comparisons with other teen media. When season one came out, we got bombarded with comparisons to Euphoria and Sex Education, as if there’s a sort of scale of teen media and Euphoria is on one end and we’re on the other end and I wasn’t expecting that at all.
Heartstopper Proves There's More Than One Way To Be A Mature Show Euphoria has generated headlines for how it approaches sensitive subject matter, regularly featuring nudity and drug use. Through the character of Rue , it shows how drug use can devastate a person and a family. By comparison, Heartstopper can be seen as a lighter series. However, simply ending the comparisons does a disservice to the kinds of stories that the Netflix show is aiming to explore.
Nick's difficulty with coming out, for instance, is an incredibly fraught subject that resonates with viewers in different ways. In season 1, Charlie is in a relationship that's manipulative and toxic. The thread continues into Heartstopper season 2, but the series isn't just about navigating confrontational waters. It also shows, for example, Isaac coming to terms with his asexuality.
