13 Reasons Why Season 4 Review: 7 Ups & 6 Downs
6. Alex's Character Journey
Alex Standall has always been among 13 Reasons Why's most interesting characters but somehow it also feels like he's been one of the least explored... at least in recent years.
His road to recovery has played a large part in his journey over the past three seasons and, even though not all of it took place on-screen, it was hard not to feel attached to a character who was trying so damn hard to make up for everything that had gone wrong in his life and ultimately grow as a person.
That growth takes a refreshing turn in Season 4 when he begins to question his own sexuality - a journey that leads to some of the character's best material yet. And, as always, Miles Heizer's performance is nothing short of impeccable.
