The following contains spoilers for 13 Reasons Why Season 2. 

Those who binged 13 Reasons Why have many reactions to the controversial show's second season, particularly to one scene in the finale.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
