He is an ordinary guy who is just beginning to discover his superpower. Much attention is given to first love, relationships with adoptive parents, and the search for his roots. The show combines science fiction, romance, and action in a captivating storyline that won the hearts of fans around the world.
"The OC" (2003)
The series addresses real issues faced by millions of teenagers. These include substance abuse, teenage pregnancy, family neglect, and the juvenile justice system. The plot unfolds in the glamorous Orange County, where the luxury of wealthy families contrasts with the deep dramas of young characters, resulting in an emotional and rich story.
"Veronica Mars: The Mystery of High School" (2004)
This girl was not just a student. Born to a former police chief, she used her investigative skills to find wrongdoers and uncover all the mysteries in her school. It combines police stories, typical teenage issues, and love dramas. The dialogues are brilliantly written—they are quick, witty, and filled with pop culture references.
"Skins" (2007)
A British series that became a true cultural revolution in 2007. The show depicted teenage dramas as they are, without embellishment. All dialogues are chaotic, candid, painful, and sometimes inappropriate. The series tells the story of a group of friends from Bristol who are in college. They have to overcome psychological disorders, issues of sexuality, violence, and family problems. Each episode is usually dedicated to one specific character, allowing the viewer to look "inside" the hero and empathize with them.
