Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has just released the HBO Emmy-Winning series EUPHORIA on DVD in a 5-disc set that features all 16 episodes and some great bonus material.
EUPHORIA specializes in shock factor and visual impact. It pulls no punches and presents a very gritty and hard-hitting series, filmed incredibly well and with an atmosphere that is mysterious and dark. Drugs and sex and love are the topics of this series, bringing the viewer back and forth from the good to the bad to the in between.
The show has style and substance and both the first season and second season are equally good. Each character has their friends but also seem alone as they battle their own private wars. This is a stylish drama that is compelling from jump and it’s a fresh breath of air. It is there to push limits and it pushes limits and I really enjoyed it.
As the show progresses, the emphasis is on relationships and the ups and downs that go along with it. The balance is really good and it’s easy to care about these broken characters despite all their flaws and struggles.
I really enjoyed this series. It was unapologetic and stylish with storylines that were really compelling, making it a binge-worthy experience.
