The reality of COVID-era series: I ended up watching the new episodes of “Euphoria” – with Zendaya and the young drug-addled America. There were no subtitles, which, coupled with “street” slang and often unfamiliar African American English, made it challenging, but — for almost the entire hour-long episode, the characters just sit in a restaurant and talk. Nothing else happens. Not almost nothing, but literally nothing. They converse intelligently and beautifully, but only between two of them (Rue and Ali, with a third joining sporadically, but just episodically)

Such are the series in the times of COVID
