I give it... 1 star for its actors. Most of, if not, all of the actors played their parts beautifully. Did they make choices that sometimes didn't make sense? Well yeah. But don't blame the actors, blame the writers. They not only brought the story to life, they exuded teenage angst on screen in the best way possible.

The 2nd star is for the issues this show raises. Teenagers are desperate. Teenagers are evil. Plain and simple. It's nice to see American Crime play out in a darker fashion, but overall in 13 Reasons Why Season 2, the show loses its shock value when they started with all that unnecessary tainted material. Season 2 starts off with a bang then you're left with a weird empty feeling that makes you sort of pissed off and on the fence about Season 3. 2 Stars for one of the most unforgettable scenes in recent TV history and 2 more stars for the design and cinematography. It was beautifully shot and I truly enjoyed watching it.
