Heartbreak High is a 2022 Australian drama television series created for Netflix, by Hannah Carroll Chapman. It is a reboot of the original series of the same name created by Ben Gannon and Michael Jenkins that ran from 1994 to 1999 on Network Ten and The ABC.The new series centers on Amerie (Ayesha Madon) and Harper (Asher Yasbincek), two Hartley High students who have been best friends since childhood and who are fascinated with the romantic lives of their peers. Their obsession leads them to create a chart called the “Incest Map,� which maps out every sexual interaction amongst the various students in their year in a deserted part of the school. However, at the start of the new term, Amerie is shocked by Harper’s sudden antagonistic coldness towards her; to make matters worse, the entire staff and student body discover the map. After taking the blame herself, Amerie becomes the school outcast, and everyone mentioned on the chart is forced to attend a special sexual education class. Now with only the company of fellow outsiders Darren Rivers (James Majoos) and Quinni Gallagher-Jones (Chloe Hayden), Amerie must navigate the trials and tribulations of Australia’s most famous high school along with the rest of her class—and a few old faces trying to help where they can.The show premiered on 14 September 2022 and was renewed for a 2nd season on 19 October, 2022. Season 2 aired on 12 April, 2024. | |

The Bully | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_1b60dcba | comment |
The Bully: Spencer AKA Spider is this. Even his friends Ant and Dusty become annoyed with his constant need to throw insults at everybody. Though later it's revealed that a lot of this is overcompensating for both his crush on Amerie and the humiliating night they spent together after the concert. Also, later it's shown Dusty is a bully as well, but he pretends to be nice in public and lets Spider take the blame for his own actions. | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: The entire first series revolves around the mystery of what's wrong with Harper and why she changed so suddenly. It's revealed that on the night of the concert: Amerie unintentionally abandoned her, she was nearly raped and then finally assaulted by her father in the midst of a psychotic episode. Thus leading to her resentment of her former best friend and her new hostile personality. | |

Heartbreak High (2022) / int_2493b31d | comment |
Fire-Forged Friends: In the beginning when Amerie and Harper are still in a Pseudo-Romantic Friendship, they are above Darren and Quinni on the school social hierarchy. But after their estrangement and Amerie becoming the school pariah, Darren and Quinni empathize with her outcast status and befriend her and by the end she's as loyal and protective to them as she ever was to Harper. | |

Heartbreak High (2022) / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Dusty is at first portrayed as a dreamy guy who is bothered by his friend Spider's taunts and takes interest in Harper, confessing a lot about himself as he does so. Later, it's revealed he's only nicer in public and secretly is the brains behind many of Spider's misdeeds and uses Amerie as a tool to childishly get back at Harper after he ruins their relationship through his own insecurities. | |

Talking Down the Suicidal: After Malakai's brush with police brutality and his discovery that Amerie is involved with Dusty at her house party, he drinks himself into a stupor and threatens to jump off the roof of the house in a thinly veiled suicide attempt. Missy gets her brother to intervene and pull him back from the edge, and the two of them escort Malakai safely away. | |

Heartbreak High (2022) / int_71e8a5c5 | comment |
Trauma Conga Line: Harper has this in spades on the night of the concert. Already dealing with her father's issues, she proceeds to have a fight with her best friend Amerie, leading to them being separated. She then gets drunk and is abducted and nearly raped by the local drug dealer and his friends; she manages to escape, but is injured and traumatized. Once she finds her way to Amerie's house, she is turned away by her unknowingly and finally, after returning home, finds her dad in the midst of a psychotic episode, which leads him to attack her. | |

Abusive Parents | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Harper's father is unintentionally abusive. When sober he at least tries to be a good father, if a not very dependable one, but when under the influence of substances, or possibly some kind of undiagnosed mental condition, he becomes unhinged and has attacked Harper more than once thinking she was an intruder. Downplayed in the case of Darren's mother who, while at least superficially loving and supportive, has clearly lost patience with Darren over their "antics" and is borderline neglectful as she increasingly favours her boyfriend's wants and needs. | |

Heartbreak High (2022) / int_b489805d | comment |
Hollywood Autism: Averted. Quinni is autistic, but also female, lesbian, highly emotionally intelligent, interested in sex and relationships, and fanatically devoted to her friends. | |

Take That! | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: After Quinni comes out as autistic to Sasha, the latter is surprised she couldn't tell, citing that Quinni is "really emotionally intelligent." note A mildly ableist sentiment in this context, as it implies that Quinni should not be capable of emotional intelligence on account of her autism. In response, Quinni snarkily refers to Sasha as "Sia", a jab at the singer's controversial film Music (2021), which was criticized by many autistic creators (including Quinni's actress Chloe Hayden) for its patronizing and disrespectful depiction of autism. | |

Beef Bandage | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_b7209ae1 | comment |
Beef Bandage: Actually a vegetarian bandage, as Malakai improvises an icepack for Amerie out of a sock and a bag of frozen peas. It works pretty well, although it ruins the peas. | |

Love Triangle | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_b7e0c5ff | comment |
Love Triangle: A particularly fickle one. Amerie likes Dusty, who hooks up with and ends up dating Harper. Amerie then develops feelings for Malakai, who has a threesome with Harper and Dusty after a traumatizing brush with Police Brutality. Both couples break up, and Amerie and Dusty start expressing interest in each other, only for Amerie to break it off when she finds out Dusty spread a false rumour about Amerie being molested by Jojo. The season ends with Amerie and Harper in a Pseudo-Romantic Friendship and some awkward Ship Tease between Amerie and Malakai. | |

Precision F-Strike | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_bc00493f | comment |
Precision F-Strike: Doubles as an example of Suddenly Shouting, in the series one finale when Cash publicly proclaims his love for Darren, causing Spider to make an off-colour joke as usual, Quinni, who had only recently overcome a nonverbal episode, tells him to "Shut the fuck up!". | |

Double Standard Rape: Female on Male | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_c289826f | comment |
Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: When Harper has a threeway with Dusty and Malakai, she is called out for taking advantage of Malakai while he was drunk and traumatized, but only briefly and later publicly calls it consensual with no one correcting her. After this, the topic mostly drops and they later joke about it. | |

Heartbreak High (2022) / int_c57293d6 | comment |
Chastity Couple: Brought up as a solution to Darren and Cash's dilemma with their Incompatible Orientation romance, with Darren being very sexual and Cash believing himself to be asexual. Neither seems overly pleased with the prospect. | |

Cool Teacher: Played With with Ms. Obah. It's a lot more subdued and realistic than usual but she tries to come up with some fun and unorthodox ways of teaching SLTs and is constantly defending her methods to Principal Woodsy. | |

Cast Full of Gay | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_d32cd9f5 | comment |
Cast Full of Gay: A majority of the main student cast are somewhere on the LGBTQIA spectrum. Darren is non-binary queer, Quinni and Sasha are lesbians, Missy is bisexual, Ant is attracted to non-binary people, Cash is asexual queer and Dusty and Malakai are revealed to at least be bi-curious if not full on bisexual. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Principal Woodsy, who is at first played as something of a parody of stern teachers in teen comedies who come in to ruin all the fun, repeatedly shows that, while she must enforce the rules and keep order, she genuinely cares about the students and will go to bat for them, even the ones that cause her the most trouble. | |

Pet the Dog | |
Heartbreak High (2022) / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Principal Woodsy gets several moments. Where in any other teen show they'd have her rejoice when trouble finds the kids who have caused her so many headaches, she repeatedly puts aside her past anger towards them and what they've done to the reputation of the school to stand by them. Particularly noted when she makes a point to reach out to Malakai after his run in with Police Brutality and when she eventually comes around to the idea of keeping on Ms. Obah as a teacher. Woodsy also literally has a dog. That hangs around the school. That she pets. CONSTANTLY. | |
