They won’t be able to capture the same magic and frustration (with Julie specifically damn girl!) and mid 00s slightly fuzzy realism.

I don't even think they'll cast actors like her or Zach Gilford. It's probably an IG friendly cast

[browneyedguuurl]

Ugh now I’m more mad 😡

[megzzy]

My god I couldn’t stand Julie lmao
I’m curious if I would like her better on re-watch but she was such a brat despite having amazing parents.

[yankeesarelove]

i would've KILLED to have her parents haha she was such an angsty teenager for no real reason

[radioepidemic__]

No she’s just as awful on rewatch lol

[weighty_ghost]

i do think thats what makes it perfect though. teens are terrible, it was so real

[megzzy]

oh for sure.
I think what annoyed me most though is that every other kid on that show has a shit ton more they are dealing with and meanwhile she was the one acting out all the time lol

Not all teens can be as perfect as Saracen I suppose.

But isn't that normal? Like if you have everything, you can afford to whine, because you know you have a safety net. If you're worrying about food, health and survival in general, there's no real time to whine. At least that was my take on her character.

[megzzy]

sure, that can be true, but it an also be the reason she is the absolute worst lol

[titti]

Well, yes, the two can be true at the same time. LOL

I think in the end, it was why it was so charming. Every character, even the annoying ones, felt real. No way they will capture that again, but I hope they prove me wrong.

she's just as bad but she's a white girl in texas that didn't want for much and was an only child so like... is it not inaccurate? even with the most well-meaning parents, they still let her get away with too much so she became the brat she was. personally i hate julie but have love for aimee for playing the role well.
