Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why is back for its fourth season and fans are going crazy. The previous seasons have been a huge hit, so it was no surprise when Netflix announced the release of the newest installment in the series. Fans have had to wait for over 2 years since the release of Season 3 to find out what happens next with Hannah Baker’s story – but now that we’ve seen it, there are many reasons why this new season deserves all your attention!
In this blog post I am going to highlight 13 different aspects about 13 Reasons Why Season 4 that make it better than Seasons 1-3:
The Season takes place over one day instead of 13 episodes, which is much more manageable to watch all at once.
This has been the most intense season so far with many shocking scenes that will leave you on edge for days after!
It brings up a lot of interesting topics like racism and sexual assault.
We get to learn about Hannah’s parents (who we never met in Seasons One or Two) and how they’re coping with her death.
The final episode is the most emotional and heartbreaking one we’ve seen so far.
It’s been such a pleasurable experience watching all 13 episodes in sequence, as opposed to having them spread out over months or years like Seasons One and Two were.
Season four has better production quality than any of the previous seasons – they make it seem more realistic because this season takes place almost exclusively outside instead of just being set inside Clay Jensen’s bedroom!
There are some new characters introduced that you can’t help but love (like Zack) who weren’t featured at all in previous seasons which makes their stories even more intriguing.
If you’re wondering what direction Season Five will be going in then I highly recommend checking out 13 Reasons Why Season Four.
In 13 Reasons Why Season Four, the show takes a more detailed look at how our society’s obsession with social media and technology affects people. This season also focuses on the complicated relationships between teens who are all going through different stages of life and maturities.
Throughout this season we see Hannah Baker continue to haunt Clay Jensen in his dreams as he continues to beat himself up for not being able to protect her or help her when she needed him most. We’re reminded that nobody ever deserves their fate – no matter what they may have done wrong along the way.
It was such a pleasurable experience watching all 13 episodes in sequence, unlike previous seasons which were split into several parts over months or years ago. Production quality has been increased and the pacing feels much more even, with a couple of episodes where time seemed to zip by.
13 Reasons Why Season Four is Better than Previous Seasons:
Production quality has been improved as well as the story’s connection to current events; -The main focus on this season is relationships which are complicated at best yet pure in their own way; -Hannah Baker continues haunting Clay Jensen in his dreams throughout this entire season reminding him that no one deserves any fate (no matter what they may have done wrong along) and that life can be hard sometimes but it will always go on. I would give 13 reasons why I believe 13 Reasons Why Season Four is better than previous seasons because it was so pleasurable to watch and it feels like we are finally getting closure after all these years.
In 13 Reasons Why Season Four, Clay Jensen faces his new life in a world without Hannah Baker as he comes out of the weighty fog that has been clouding him ever since she died;
The series does not shy away from tough topics such as, harassment or drug addiction;
This season offers more suspenseful moments than past ones with unexpected twists and turns (one which I am still trying to wrap my head around) but leaves so many questions unanswered at the end of each episode. It’s hard to know what will happen next…will you survive? Will someone else survive? What is going on with Bryce Walker?
There is a gut-wrenching, emotional finale that will leave you with mixed feelings. One of the most memorable scenes in 13 Reasons Why Season Four was when Tyler Down (Devin Druid) confessed to his friend Courtney Crimsen (Olivia Welch) what he planned on doing at school and she confronted him about it but then just walked away again.
“I don’t know how anyone can have any confidence now because there’s no justice,” says Clay Jensen as he faces down an empty playground, “No point.” Despite everything else going on this season, one thing remains: Hannah Baker lives in our hearts forever.
13 Reasons Why Season Four is another win for Netflix that will have you glued to your screen from start to finish.
The new season starts off with a flash forward, taking place 17 months after the events of 13 Reasons Why Season Three in which we see Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford) waiting on a porch swing next to her mother Jessica Bakers (Anne Winters) and stepdad Tom Atkins’ house. This was such an emotional moment because it makes us want so badly for things to work out between them but at this point they’re still not together. They both seem content living their separate lives now, even though they are only separated by this one little fence in the middle of their yard…as if acknowledging its presence is the closest they’ll ever get to each other.
The first two episodes are titled “Day One” and “Two Paths Diverge,” which starts off with Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette) trying to pull himself together after everything that has happened in his life over the last few years, while Liberty High School sophomore Tyler Down’s apology video goes viral.
We also see Tony Padilla (Christian Navarro), who videotaped Hannah Baker’s suicide back when she was alive, finally experiencing some semblance of guilt for being responsible for her death. He then meets up with Bryce Walker’s sister Cynthia during lunchtime at school and asks if he can apologize too, but she tells him no because it would be pointless since he’s not in any real danger.
Tony decides to turn himself into the police for his crime, but when he arrives at the station and tells them that Bryce Walker raped Hannah Baker before she killed herself, they don’t believe him because her video is no longer on YouTube. He then gets arrested and sent back to Liberty High School where a lot of people start mocking him for “snitching” on someone as popular as Bryce.
Meanwhile, Tyler Down murders Skye Miller (Sophie Cadle) during their date because she made fun of his apology video in front of everyone at Smokey Joe’s Diner earlier that day. But we also learn from Tyler later on in episode two that he was inspired by Clay Jensen/
13 Reasons Why Season 4 is better than Seasons 1-3: -The storyline has stayed true to the original story. -There are new characters that make this season more interesting. -It’s a little darker, but not too much so it still feels like 13 Reasons Why. -Season 3 ended with an open ending and fans were eager for answers in Season 4 which was released on May 18th! The showrunners of 13 Reasons Why have done a fantastic job at keeping us wanting more since its release 2 years ago when they left us hanging with questions about Hannah Baker’s death. And now we finally get some closure on what happened after she died by watching episode 14 (the last one). We can’t wait to
