Privileged Manhattan teens navigate love and scandal under the watchful eye of an anonymous, all-knowing blogger.
Satirical and campy. A comfort watch at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
Heads up on moderate sex and nudity. That is past what the TV-14 on the box suggests. Beyond that, some strong language and some violence.
Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the TV-14 suggests, because of the sex and nudity.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
