It helps, too, that the majory of the st actually are and look like, teenagers – spe the high gloss and homoeroticism of the trailer for season 3, this isn’t an overly Hollywoodised g-out story where everyone looks 27 and has huge mcl. The third season of Norwegian teen seri Skam dismantled stereotyp, erced schoolkids to skivg off class and turned homophob to rabow flag-wavg fenrs—and first began airg one year ago today.

It was the “gay” season, chartg the blossomg relatnship of Isak Valtersen and Even Bech Næsheim, both g to terms wh their sexualy agast a cuttg background of teenage angst. Wh a short promo clip that uld have been a stand for a gay snuff film—jockish throbs a locker room beg showered wh k slow motn—the seri wasn’t aaid to shy away om explicly homosexual subject matter. Homophobia, bullyg, mental health—nothg was off the rds for seri creator Julie Anm.
