Man....i'm not sure. Depends on how the backlash goes on in the next few weeks, and the time leading up to awards. Movie/film/ TV critics seem to receive the show really well overall, and audiences really love it. But the whole controversy on whether or not showing a graphic suicide scene will hurt its chances. Along with the fact that it doesnt exactly have a politically correct main character with Hannah Baker. The show goes for that morally grey, honest approach which i love but it doesnt go over well with everyone.

I think it will at least get some attention due to the popularity now, as well as some strong supporters, but i dont see it winning the big awards. Then again, the message is so relevant that if the backlash subsides, and turns into positive support the show could be a shoe in. It all comes down to how the media paints the show.

What backlash? I haven't heard anything about a backlash? Granted I don't watch much news or entertainment news. Care to explain?

Oh just google 13 Reasons Why and you can see a ton haha! Mostly targeted towards the treatment of the suicide scene, and how it can cause more harm than good by triggering people. Here i'll link you to one

I think a lot of these articles are click bait. It's always easy to rein people in by slagging off a popular show.

Who gives a shit if these so-called experts think it causes more harm than good. Obama's America is pussy America. The suicide scene is brutal, it needed to be shown. I think Hannah would have screamed a bit more and been more upset as the blood flows but I am sure everyone who commits suicide does it in a different way.

I completely agree with you, and i'm honestly pissed off because a lot of these articles feel click baity. The only legit criticism i understand is showing the suicide scene. However i would also argue it needed to be ugly and brutal, and not romanticized as a peaceful way out. Plus, the show already gives so MANY warnings before anything traumatic happens.

Yeah I don't think there is a backlash about the show. Everyone is talking about how good the show is and that's all I've seen. I think you're over putting too much stock into internet news articles. Like someone else said they're probably more click bait than anything.
