Teen dramas remain extremely popular, particularly on streaming services. Viewers should anticipate seeing real-life concerns like mental health and sexuality represented more and more truthfully in the media as they lose some of their stigmas. Teenagers frequently experience a lot of problems, as well as the regrettable realities of abuse, racism, assault, and identity difficulties.

Euphoria is widely considered a masterpiece. Everything is carefully designed, from the wardrobe to the casting to the plot, to the point that it all seems brutally natural. People worldwide are eager for more series like Euphoria after the second season of the popular HBO series just ended and trended on social media for the entire season.

Shows Like Euphoria:

1. Cruel Summer

 

Cruel Summer Plot:

Teenagers should experience a paradise throughout the summer, but that isn’t always the case. The outstanding Cruel Summer limited series on Freeform is a wonderfully crafted, slow-burning thriller. It follows two remarkably dissimilar adolescent girls who find themselves in the crosshairs of a well-publicized kidnapping.

For three years, from 1993 to 1995, Chiara Aurelia portrays Jeannette, a clumsy 15-year-old. She is from a small Texas town and will do anything to be popular and appealing. In the shape of 16-year-old beauty queen Kate Wallis (Olivia Holt), who personifies calm and grace, everyone in the community is made a suspect when she vanishes in the summer of 1993.

Months later, when Kate is finally spotted and saved, she accuses Jeanette of finding her while she is being kept captive and failing to assist her in escaping. What happens next is a confusing drama recounted from both girls’ points of view for three years. With all the flashbacks and forwards, it’s never apparent who to believe or what the truth is.

2. Sex Education

Sex Education Plot: 

If you liked the show Euphoria your next watch should be the cheeky Netflix original series Sex Education, the sexually adventurous young students at the made-up Moordale Secondary School go on crazy adventures. But unfortunately, they suffer many casualties. While battling shame, hormones, and heartbreaks they navigate the many difficulties of ordinary adolescence.

Asa Butterfield portrays the title character, Otis, a bashful high school student whose mother is a gravitas-filled sex therapist. So, with the aid of Maeve (Emma Mackey), a tough girl with aspirations of a brighter future, Otis sets up a top-secret operation to provide students at Moordale with sex advice in exchange for money since he is tired of watching from the sidelines.

Sex Education keeps getting even better with each passing episode and season. I really hope this show will be getting renewed for a fifth season. #SexEducation

About Sex Education: 

The show’s primary characters are Ncuti Gatwa, Aimee Lou Wood, Tanya Reynolds, Connor Swindells, and Kedar Williams-Stirling. They play a fantastic assortment of perpetually horny teenagers. They battle and work with their ever-changing bodies in this excruciatingly awkward and jaw-dropping comedy.

3. My So-Called Life

My So-Called Life Plot:

When Claire Danes took on the character of Angela Chase in the ground-breaking ABC series My So-Called Life. It is about a 15-year-old high school student who is perpetually having existential crises, teen angst on tv was created.

Following kids at a public high school in Pittsburg as they fought with drinking, depression, homelessness, and love changed that. Before the series began, most teen series were after-school specials with little connection to reality.

About My So-Called Life:

Angela colors her brown hair red in the first episode of the show. She leaves her old friends in favor of a group of edgy outsiders. She embarks on a quest for meaning amid dreary hallways and uninteresting family dinners.

An openly gay actor Wilson Cruz plays Enrique, the first openly gay adolescent on television. The show also stars A.J. Langer as Angela’s alcoholic best friend, Rayanne and Jared Leto as teen heartthrob Jordan Catalano. The show also features many other ground-breaking characters.

4. One of Us Is Lying

One of Us is Lying Plot: 

A typical murder mystery whodunit, One of Us is Lying. A Peacock original series is set in a competitive high school where prejudices endure with unexpected twists and turns. In essence, it would occur if one of the students in The Breakfast Club were murdered.

The first episode of the series shows five children entering detention, but only four of them make it out alive. The suspect is thought to be one of the four survivors. And the options are an athlete, a brain, a criminal, or a princess.

Cast of One of Us is Lying: 

Cooper Van Grootel, Annalisa Cochrane, Marianly Tejada, and Chibuikem Uche play the suspects in the series, based on Karen M. McManus’s best-selling book. While attempting to solve the crime, they unite and compete to clear their names.

Riverdale Plot: 

The CW’s Riverdale gives the popular American teen fantasy that the Archie comic book series depicts a sinister makeover. An excellent football star is more focused on his music than scoring touchdowns. The girl next door has a violent, dark side. And there are now murders, scam artists, and cults in the town with pep.

Cast of Riverdale:

The series’ first episode opens with the discovery of Jason Blossom’s body on the banks of the Sweetwater River. Blossom is the twin brother of the local queen bee Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch). With the help of dishonest locals, Archie Andrews (KJ Apa), Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart), Veronica Lodge (Cami Mendes), and Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) conduct a gruesome murder investigation.

Riverdale is now in its sixth season and never fails to wow with puzzling. The strange mysteries as the core four detectives snoop about the area solving murders no one else will touch.

6. Sharp Objects

About Sharp Objects: 

The HBO limited series Sharp Objects stars Amy Adams as a despondent journalist and is a complicated masterwork. Adams plays Camille Prescott in the film adaptation of the same-titled book by Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl), a hardened soul who relies on whiskey and Led Zeppelin to get through the day.

Old wounds begin to bleed again when her boss orders her to return to her small, southern hometown to look into the horrific killings of two teenage girls. From a wealthy family, Camille’s home is like a southern gothic nightmare. As she works to solve the disturbing killings, her dominating mother (Patricia Clarkson) and teenage half-sister (Eliza Scanlen) play with her emotions nonstop.

She battles the cloying sweetness of southern charm given in ice-cold glasses of lemonade while reporting the story with damaged Detective Richard Willis (Chris Messina) as they approach uncomfortably close to the case and slip into old patterns.

7. Looking for Alaska

About Looking for Alaska:

The teen drama series Looking for Alaska is deceivingly quiet and silent. Looking for Alaska focuses on casual exchanges of firsts and favorite songs among teenagers in private places. It contrasts the numerous over-the-top coming-of-age television shows that are currently on the air, where the flashing lights and thumping party beats have grown overbearing.

The Hulu original limited series, based on John Green’s first book, is a faithful translation of its source material while introducing fresh layers that give the narrative new vitality.

Looking for Alaska Plot: 

Miles (Charlie Plummer), a 16-year-old wallflower who enters boarding school at Culver Creek Academy in Alabama, rapidly befriends a group of outlaws. They enjoy raising drinks and causing trouble while thinking about philosophical concepts while smoking an endless supply of cigarettes.

Kristine Froseth plays Alaska Young, a fellow outsider and degenerate with whom Miles instantly falls in love. Looking for Alaska is a philosophical television series that captures the small, seemingly unimportant moments of youth that turn out to be the most significant ones.

8. Dare Me

Dare Me Plot: 

The creepy neo-noir flick Dare Me is about female friendship, cheering, and secrets. It competes with Euphoria for the most glittering eyeshadow and leading criminal students. Dare Me series is based on Ginna Fattore’s 2012 book of the same name.

It follows Addy Hanlon (Herizen F. Guardiola), a talented cheerleader in an impoverished Midwest town, and her best friend Beth (Marlo Kelly), the crafty star cheerleader with ulterior motives. Everywhere she goes, Beth causes havoc, and when the new head coach concentrates on Addy instead of Beth, things happen that can never be undone.

About Dare Me: 

The cramped environment of locker rooms, speeding cars, and dinner tables become claustrophobic as Addy suggestively narrates each episode, implying that something horrible is about to happen. Even though the series cancels after one season, Dare Me is still an intriguing limited series. It is about the often toxic and vital connection between adolescent girls.

9. The Society

The Society Plot: 

The Society is like a contemporary, supernatural adaptation of The Lord of the Flies, replacing the isolated island with a charming suburb in a tiny Connecticut town. However, high schoolers discover their hometown utterly empty and no adults in sight as they return from their camping trip early due to a violent, destructive storm.

As the high school students plot their survival, numerous cliques start to butt heads, with Kathryn Newton as the hesitant senior class leader. If you liked watching the show Euphoria, you should definitely try watching The Society.

About The Society: 

In addition to the typical teenage chaos, there are also puzzling paranormal themes, such as the student’s inability to escape the town no matter how far they venture into the nearby woods. Murderous classmates, treacherous neighbors, and deadly pies lie around every corner as everyone works together to attempt to discover what caused everyone to vanish.

10. The Great

The Great, a caustic and sarcastic Hulu original series, is about Catherine the Great’s chaotic coming-of-age in 18th-century Russia with punk rock sensibilities and passionate encounters.

The Great Plot: 

Elle Fanning plays the youthful and naive Catherine in the show’s first episode. She marries Russian tsar Peter III (Nicholas Hoult). She mistakenly thinks he’s her prince charming waiting to happen. Still, that idea swiftly vanished when Peter is exposed.

For he is nothing but a vulgar and illiterate leader with no genuine aspirations in life. Then, after a period of self-discovery, Catherine gradually assumes control while preparing for a long-term takeover of her husband’s empire.
