They portray Devi and Ben as the smartest kids in school but she's taking Geometry in 9th grade not 7th or 8th like the magnet school kids around here. Never have the show writers ever met a TJ type kid!

Yes he did look older this season. But I liked his arc and actually felt like it was true to a lot of students’ senior year. There are always some popular kids who kind of venture out and befriend some other kids. I liked that Trent and Eleanor dated.

Wow-you're right. He was the choice for Aaron Burr before Leslie Odom had the role.

Ambudkar originated role of Aaron Burr in those early days of Hamilton, performing opposite Miranda in the “Hamilton Mixtape” at the Lincoln Center, and then again at New York Stage and Film. But as hype about Hamilton mounted, Ambudkar said he found himself becoming “utterly a husk of a person.”

“The most important things to me at the time were the parties,” he says in the film. “At that point my alcohol use was—I couldn’t deal. I couldn’t execute the way that they needed me to, and I had to step away. Then Hamilton drops, and it’s everywhere. It’s ubiquitous. It’s a phenomenon. It’s such an interesting feeling, to love people so much and be so happy for their success—and to feel a part of it, really. Lin, Tommy, Chris, Daveed—I felt taken care of every step of the way by them.”

For Ambudkar, though, missing out on the Hamilton train was the best possible wake-up call to get his life together.
