'Euphoria should be shown in every high school'
'Euphoria' has a successful run in viewership and critical acclaim throughout its three seasons
Euphoria has ended with season 3, but its impact and critical acclaim were arguably unparalleled.
Sharon Stone, best known for Basic Instinct and Casino, recently made remarks on the show that give key insight into the 'series' popularity.
She called “Euphoria the greatest show on television.”
But she did not stop there.
Stone took a step further, stating that the HBO show "should be shown in every high school."
Such high praise from Stone comes after the hard-hitting drama weighed in on issues which struck a personal chord with the actress.
"We’ve met these kids. We’ve seen them turn into young adults. We’ve seen them turn into full-on drug dealers."
Her brother had been involved in the drug trade, which led him to jail.
"And I’ve gone through it in my family. My brother went to the biggest prison in New York."
Stone recounted pleading with her brother to help him escape the life of crime.
"He got in the drug business. It kept going. I was like, 'You have to get out. You have to let me pay off your vig.'"
However, her brother gave her a reality check, "He was like, 'It doesn’t work like that. '"You can’t pay it off.'"
As the theme of Euphoria is deeply relatable to Stone's family struggles, she said she felt an emotional connection after the series' first episode.
"So when the first episode ended, I just sat there and cried."
Stone, then, weighed in on the minefield issue: the finale of Euphoria.
She slammed the viewers who complained that the drama did not feature a happy ending.
"And then I read these reviews about how people wanted it to be this happy ending."
"And I’m like, 'What you saw was so honest.' 'Euphoria' is so relevant. I believe it should be shown in every high school."
"I think all the parents should have to see it. As a mom, I love it," the actress said.
Euphoria is streaming on HBO Max.
