[quote=Anonymous]I was really interested in this show and watched all 4 episodes, but it was too slow I wish it didn't drag on so much, in every episode. It could easily lose its audience, and it has an important message to tell.

I feel besides the toxic masculinity/ incel messages, it also touched on several forms of bullying (boy v boy, group bullying, online bullying, girl bullying), sexting, the education system and the mental health system. Jamie seems to be a product of all of his environments, not exclusively of his father's anger issues. The school environment is horrendous, with all teachers screaming, children not respecting any authority, with violence, with bullying, no order, just chaos all the time. Then in episode 3 you see Jamie is being held in a psych ward and it is explained that he is there because there isn't room for him where he is actually supposed to be so he is constantly being exposed to people with several mental illness (not saying he doesn't have one) and his mental state seems much worse during question with the therapist than in episode 1 with the police and his father.
