The Episode Review
Everything’s Trash is still finding its footing in its premiere, but some stilted dialogue and shaky character introductions can’t quash Phoebe Hill’s charm.
This new Freeform series is elevated by Phoebe Robinson’s relatable voice and devil-may-care attitude. Her sheer charisma and wit should be enough to persuade most to keep watching.
It seems like Phoebe is going to continue getting herself into trouble. Hamilton will likely make a reappearance later in the show. I’m wondering- will that have a negative effect on Jayden’s campaign, or will Jayden’s campaign have a negative effect on a potential relationship?
