If teen angst is your thing, you'll like 'I'm Not Okay With This.'
’s “I Am Not Okay With This” is a superpower, coming-of-age comedy about high schoolers living in a Pennsylvania town near Pittsburgh.
If you’ve seen a few coming-of-age shows or movies that center around teens that are “different,” then “I Am Not Okay With This” will feel like a retread of highs you already experienced. Despite that, the show has enough charm to justify its existence and appeal to fans of the genre. These merits especially come through as the two characters wander through their Pennsylvania town. In a voiceover, Syd describes the area as the most polluted in America. Despite this, the camera finds backdrops of aging, but appealing buildings, surrounded by natural beauty such as forests and rivers. These shots make the show far more memorable than it had any right to be with its well-worn ideas.
The show has other characters call these teens out on their faux-edgy, judgmental nonsense. But as a viewer, you still have to spend a lot of time with this.The fifth episode of the season opens on the main characters huddled over desks in a classroom taking a test. The teacher sits at the front, reading a magazine. The sound of a ticking clock ticks away.“Dear Diary, I’m just gonna put my head down. Do nothing. Say nothing. It’s the only way to make sure I don’t hurt anyone.
