FULL STORY
======================================================================

If youve finished Sex Education  the show, that is  and youre looking for a 
new Netflix series favorite, weve found just the thing. Everything Now is 
perfect for fans of Sex Education and Heartstopper , and mixes dark humor and 
stellar performances to deliver a show with real heart. 

 Everything Now focuses on 16-year-old Mia, whos returning home after 
recovery for an eating disorder. Her time away means her friends have moved 
on without her, and so she tries to make up for lost time by throwing herself 
head-first into a world of partying, dating and first kisses. The Telegraph  
the UK paper for furious boomers  absolutely hated it, which sounds like a 
good reason to check it out. That and the glowing reviews from younger 
critics and viewers. On Rotten Tomatoes, the show has 80% from the critics 
and 88% from viewers. 

The show is set in North London, where Mia is trying to get her life back 
after a long recovery. She decides to write a bucket list of things she needs 
to do, and enlists her best friends to help her tick everything off. Cue a 
rollercoaster ride through the many horrors and hilarities of approaching 
adulthood. Why Everything Now is worth watching 

Mashable's review sets the tone: the show is "raw, authentic and surprisingly 
hilarious", with a superb performance by Sophie Wilde as Mia. Her eating 
disorder is part of her but it doesn't define her, so what could have been a 
worthy but dull show in the wrong hands is vibrant, fun and funny because 
people are vibrant, fun and funny. Credit for that goes to Ripley Parker, the 
show's 22-year-old creator: the reason it feels so realistic in its portrayal 
of young adult life is because it's written by someone who's living that 
life, not trying to remember it years or decades later. 

I have to admit that when I saw that the show featured a lead character with 
an eating disorder I was worried. It's not an easy thing to portray well. For 
example, Netflix's series To The Bone was criticised as being potentially 
triggering for people with or recovering from eating disorders. But from the 
reviews and social media chat I've seen, Everything Now appears to do it 
realistically and respectfully. Nevertheless the show does feature trigger 
warnings and links to Netflix's Want To Talk About It mental health portal so 
viewer discretion is advised. 

Messier than Never Have I Ever and Heartstopper , lighter than Euphoria or 
Skins , it looks like Netflix has a hit on its hands. Everything Now is 
streaming on the best streaming service everywhere now. You might also like
