It's engaging (1 more)
As a show - without the b.s. of pretending they care about suicide prevention, it is actually quite good
Nothing to do with suicide prevention or awareness. It is a TV show, the main goal of which is to attract viewers (0 more)
Mixed feelings about it
As someone who has struggled with suicidal thoughts for over a decade, I cannot say that this show brings any kind of awareness. It is a show; nothing more, nothing less. Don't omit this as the holy grail of mental health advertising, because it isn't.
It is an interesting show with an interesting plot. Too many viewers, and those involved with production, felt the need to blow the meaning of '13 reasons why' out of proportion.
It is not going to shine a light on those in your family that want to take their own life. I would also argue it is not going to influence someone to take their own life.
Not everybody is the same, I know. But I was engaged until the very end, and the urge I have had to end my life was no greater and no lesser after having watched the show.

Excellent, edge-of-the-seat thriller. The closest we'll come to 24 since the end of 24 (this includes the new 24).
Kevin Bacon is an excellent, flawed detective investigating the rise of cults. His nemesis is obsessed with Edgar Allan Poe and his followers wear creepy Poe-masks in their attacks, which are some of the creepier scenes in a non-horror TV show.

We circle back to season 3 for the climax of the fight for Centauri Prime. We saw brief flashes of this in season 3, but this book puts a few of them in a completely different light. It's must reading for fans of the TV show.

Don't try this at home
Haven't seen this in a long time I like watching jackass the TV show or the movies. Done of the stunts are dangerous and even I wouldn't attempt them. not as good as the first two movies but still good like the Beavis and butt head introduction at the beginning of the movie
