Some of the most celebrated shows tackle tough topics. The ability to take a complex issue and present it in an entertaining but informative way is a huge risk that can backfire if not handled correctly. However, some shows like Dopesick, Adolescence, and I May Destroy You have been praised not only for being great works of art but also for exploring nuanced topics with the complexity and care they need. Netflix has been at the forefront of such shows recently, but HBO has forever remained the home of difficult storytelling. Their latest show is another attempt to explore the effects of masculinity, abuse, and sexuality.
