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.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

As willfully provocative as ever in its second season, Euphoria still isn't for all tastes -- but when its addictive ingredients are mixed just right, the results remain intoxicating.

Shirley Li The Atlantic 03/04/2022
Euphoria has become an aimless show -- even though it remains a hypnotizing one. In the disarray of Season 2, the series’ sense of nihilism is magnified. Go to Full Review
Naomi Fry The New Yorker 02/14/2022
The show’s power to seduce and alarm also stems from its presentation of a teen life almost completely lacking in adult oversight. Go to Full Review
Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 01/19/2022
The new episodes still pinball between the bombastic and the solemn, between understanding and exploitation, and that is its uncompromising identity. Go to Full Review

C-
In Euphoria, women and girls suffer endlessly at the hands of men while being both sexualized and infantilized. Go to Full Review
Alex Valencia Q+ Magazine 07/06/2024
In its second season, Euphoria struggles to move forward with its pivotal arcs, which makes the story feel lacking in a lot of ways. It also makes the huge mistake of sidelining multiple characters, turning them into a shadow of what they used to be. Go to Full Review

8/10
It still is visually incredible, and its overall acting makes the show go places few reach. But we can feel the story dragging in ways season 1 did not. Modern addiction through all its lenses. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Tommy D @Thomas005 Jun 6 This second season is more more emotional respect all first season. The songs are amazing and the final episode is very fantastic and very sad See more alayna P. @alaynaMOVIES69 May 28 The end of season 1 to this masterpiece was honestly peak cinema, the emotional roller I went through watching this season and getting closer to the characters See more ROFIDA M @RT02507853 May 10 I really love it, and the first season is truly one of the best things I've ever seen. I loved Ro character from the first season, but from the second season I loved Maddie. They're my two favorite characters, but Jules and Cassie are the two most annoying Falcon characters. I really hate them. See more Maria Chiara V @chiara123 May 4 I preferred the first season. Sam Levinson wanted to give all the space to Rue and to the ridiculous love triangle of Nate, Maddy and Cassie, forgetting the importance other characters had. This season clearly lacks of psychological depth, which is exactly what made the first season so good. What keeps this season alive are the cinematography in general, the music and the acting. The plot… has lots of problems. See more Tye N. @tyesativa May 2 Sam Livingston and Labrinth once again take our characters back to the romanticized hell of 2010s high school. The cinematography, score, and outstanding performances from the cast still create a comfy, nostalgic show. Each cast member delivers their best performances yet.
