Courtesy of HBO “That’s the beauty of this country we call America,” a new acquaintance tells Rue (Zendaya) in the Season 3 premiere of “Euphoria.” “Anyone can reinvent themselves.”
It’s a line that practically demands placement at the top of a review — a statement of purpose so direct a critic could almost resent the lack of interpretation required. But in typically maximalist fashion, the HBO drama doesn’t stop there. In the next episode, Rue gets another piece of advice, this one from her ex Jules (Hunter Schafer): “You can’t just show up after all this time and think everything’s gonna be the same.”
