    I get where you’re coming from, but the reason I like it so much is it addresses so many issues I’ve had to deal with, or know people who’ve had to deal with them. The way the main character describes depression and anxiety, the way they keep trying to be better but ultimately repeat the same mistakes when things get bad, it makes me feel like someone finally understands what I’m going through, which is comforting. There are a ton of other heavy topics addressed, like drug abuse, anger management, gender identity, sexual orientation, and more, and I felt like it was done in a really good and non-judgemental way, where it wasn’t like the writers were trying to tell you some “moral of the story” but instead just acknowledging these are real world problems and that life is really hard.

      It’s kind of painful to watch for me with how insufferable most of the characters are and how terrible of decisions they constantly make. Still has plenty of good parts, and sadly Fez was probably the best part of the show for me
