Being irresponsible, spoilt brats with a massive sense of entitlement can never substitute for character. School is tough. High school is tougher. Kids get bullied and body-shamed. Some of them take to drugs. And staying a virgin becomes a cross to bear. All of this features in ALT Balaji’s new webseries Class Of 2017. And that is it. There is zero to minimal character development, no depth in writing, not a modicum of intelligence or sincerity on display. Either the writers are confident that showing a bunch of kids having sex and consuming drugs all the time suffice for a good enough show. Or maybe that’s just the memo the writers got from its producers.
