13 Reasons Why is the premise of the Netflix original series. Produced by Selena Gómez, who also performed the song “Only You” to score the episodes. This series is an American drama developed by Brian Yorkey. It’s an incredible show. Of course, it’s not meant for people who are suicidal or could be triggered in any way, but the warnings clearly explain that they include crisis resources too. It’s based on the best-selling book by Jay Asher, having the same name as the series.
Synopsis

Was it all worth it in the end ?
After four seasons, 13 Reasons Why came to an end. In the end, it was all worth it as there were no more mysteries left unsolved. In addition, all the characters get away with what they have done.

Tony leaves his shop because he has a full ride to the University of Nevada, where he’ll put his boxing skills to good use.
Closure
13 Reasons Why is a recommended series. The premise of 13 Reasons Why is indeed grim. This is an addictive, immersive show that comes with the standard Netflix flaws; the story gets bloated halfway through the 13-episode season, which tends to happen with shows built for binge-watching but also manages its grim material with elegance and nuance. Netflix proves once again that having a good story, good writers, and great performances can present high-quality work.
