Zendaya’s angsty teen drama Euphoria made headlines after it premiered in 2019 on HBO, garnering attention almost immediately thanks to its stellar Gen Z/Millennial line-up. Alongside ex-Disney Channel sweetheart Zendaya, the show boasts the talent of The Kissing Booth alumni Jacob Elordi, model and trans activist Hunter Schafer, as well as Sydney Sweeney, Maude Apatow, Instagram celeb Barbie Ferreira and Grey’s Anatomy’s Eric Dane.
Created by Sam Levinson, the explicit Euphoria was quickly dubbed America’s answer to the popular British Skins due to its relatable high school characters and its X-rated themes (only Euphoria manages to make the Brits look tame). It was welcomed with open arms from younger audiences, and both critiqued and praised (8 Emmy nods) by critics for its controversial and honest depiction of teen sex, drugs and addiction, identity, sexuality and trauma. But how can you watch the brutal ode to teenage life? Find out with this Canstar Blue guide.

Watch Euphoria on Foxtel
When we hear HBO in Australia, we usually think Foxtel — and this time is no different, with the streaming platform providing the entire first season of Euphoria, along with the second season that’s currently underway. If you’re thinking about Foxtel but keen on more than just Euphoria, it may also be worth exploring Foxtel Packages.
Watch Euphoria on iTunes
If you have a certain episode in mind (Larry Stylinson fanfic, perhaps?) and you’re running low on funds, then iTunes could be for you. Purchase single episodes of Euphoria for just $3.50, or the entire season for $24.99.
What is Euphoria about?
A loose adaption of the Israeli show of the same name, Euphoria stars Zendaya as Rue, a 17-year-old drug addict who emerges fresh from rehab with zero intentions to stay clean. The show follows Rue and the troubled teens that circle amongst her, including Jules (Hunter Schafer), a transgender girl who quickly befriends Rue upon her arrival into town. Elordi stars as Nate, a high school athlete who masks his sexual insecurities with his anger issues and Eric Dane as his father who hides secrets from Nate and his family — secrets which include Jules. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg (we don’t want to give too much away!).
What can we expect from season two of Euphoria?
It was confirmed in 2019 that a second season of Euphoria will be happening — but we’ve all had to wait a long time before it could safely come to our screens. Season one left us on a cliff-hanger as Rue overdoses, with plenty more drama in the background, as well as character exploration as the teens are forced to grow up quicker than they’d like.
