'Adolescence': A Groundbreaking Series

'Adolescence' has taken the television world by storm since its debut, becoming one of the most discussed shows of the year. This unsettling British series on Netflix delves into the chilling story of a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering a schoolmate, raising critical discussions around the themes of toxic masculinity and the troubling influences of social media on youth.

Co-creator Stephen Graham, who plays the father of the accused teen, expressed disbelief at the series' significant impact, stating, "We never expected our little programme to have such a big effect." In just three months, the show amassed an impressive 140 million views and each of its four episodes was uniquely shot in a single take.
