13 Most WTF TV Moments Of 2018 (So Far)

2. Broom Rape - 13 Reasons Why (Bye)

13 Reasons Why's second season was a rough departure from the first to say the least, and it arguably saved the worst for last with the wildly controversial climactic sequence in which poor Tyler (Devin Druid) is sodomised with a broom handle by Montgomery (Timothy Granaderos) and his pals.

This was unfortunately perfect ammunition for everyone who's ever criticised this show for being needlessly melodramatic, gratuitous and tackling important subjects with insufficient finesse or nuance.

It of course leads to Tyler showing up to school with a gun, and though the show doesn't go the full trashy hog of having Tyler go through with it, the whole subplot feels needlessly icky and hilariously forced.
