The series is truly perfect, it represents teenagers feelings and attitudes. The lgbtq plot and romance is realistic. **The fact that Wilhelm isn’t labeled as gay is important, because you don't always have to come out.** The cast is very good, they look like their age, they’re not the typical teens with perfect skin, tall, with big muscles. Watching it [the series] I felt that I identify with them. The acting is so good and it produces a lot of feeling on you. Plus the soundtrack is awesome.

I had heard a lot of hype about Heartstopper and Young Royals, so I binged both and while I feel that Heartstopper lived up to the hype, Young Royals did not. Almost every character is morally/ethically bankrupt and even the prince and his boyfriend are morally questionable. Yes, they are cute together, but it doesn't change the fact that about half of the series is spent on unlikeable characters. It made it a little hard to enjoy this series. I know that most probably won't agree with me, but this isn't a series I'd watch again.
