A lot of the television shows using fully adult actors in a high school setting could easily change their plot to revolve around a college setting instead of the weird fixation television has on displaying the sex lives of high schoolers

I think a good example of this is the show Riverdale. If you don’t know, it’s a show using the characters of Archie comics in a teen murder drama ish show. In that show their lives are about whatever big mystery is going on, their relationships, and their friends. The characters in the show are high-school age (16 I believe) but a lot of the cast is actors in their mid-twenties (one actor is almost 29). <br><br>In the show, or as much as I’ve seen, being an actual high school student occupies very little of the character’s lives and the aspects of high school we do see the characters participate it could more or less be translated into a college setting. So why even make them high school students? I know to reach a youth audience and whatever but it would be way less weird if they were college students and the show is written and run by adults so I don’t know why they think this is okay. I’m not even against all depictions of sex in teen-oriented media, I think there’s good ways to do it, but a lot of the shows targeting teenagers that feature the sex lives have a huge creepy fixation on it.<br><br>abanturage is the username on most other platforms, feel free to add me. I probably won’t add back though.
