In eight episodes, it does a lot and devises a strikingly original voice and cadence — at times quiet and subtle and at others boisterous and theatrical. Go to Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au 09/18/2022
Sparkling with personality and verve, Heartbreak High is a fresh, distinctly Australian and distinctly 2022 series that doesn’t pay lip service to nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake. Go to Full Review Kylie Northover The Age (Australia) 09/15/2022
4/5
The 2022 Heartbreak High is wild, fun, moving and bound to be shocking to some viewers -- exactly what a drama about teenagers should be. Go to Full Review Mel Campbell ScreenHub 02/03/2023
Ultimately, what I liked most about Heartbreak High were its generic elements: the soapy drama of friendships and relationships. Gently but noticeably, it models respect, solidarity and consent. Go to Full Review Kristen Maldonado Pop Culture Planet 09/27/2022
In just eight episodes, Netflix delivers a high stakes and high energy series with well-rounded characters you won’t be able to help but fall in love with. Authentic, edgy, and genuinely diverse, Heartbreak High is the show young people deserve in 2022. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 09/15/2022
Despite one of the main plotlines being a bit wonky, Heartbreak High is a funny show with well-drawn characters. They just happen to hook up a lot. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Fynn P. @lotsoflove4404 Feb 15 loved loved LOVED. I've re-watched this season at least 20 times. Love the friendship, music, and plot. definitely recommend See more Damarii J Dec 5 I love ittt!!!! i can’t wait for season 3 See more Ellis G Jul 7 One of the only shows, where the Gen Z representation isn't shoehorned or extremely cringe, but in is smooth. I live laugh and LOVE Darren, they are such a diva i can't, they have like 10 famous quotes. The story feels fun and down to earth, plus it earned all my respect after the closing song for season 1 was Let It Happen by Tame Impala. Now season is a downgrade from the pervious season, but 57% ? See more Gioele D 10/11/2024 Questa è una serie che ti prende fin dall'inizio. Amori, delusioni, colpi di scena e risate sono il giusto mix per passare una serata in completo relax. Assolutamente consigliato See more Paul D 09/21/2024 Lacks the grit and authenticity of the original. Let down by casting and writing. The actors are all in self-tape mode and lack the ability to connect that’s necessary to make an ensemble like this really soar. The writing assumes that most young people sincerely hold the same cultural values as an NPR radio host. See more Aaliyah 08/07/2024 An aussie teen drama, yes please!! Very creative and captivating. I loved every moment of this show. I also loved on how much they have incorporated into the show such as different disabilities, LGBTQIA+, trauma, relationships, and different aspects of the struggles with mental health. Was also beautiful to see different stereotypes of people in the show as well. See more Read all reviews
