Overview

Taking place over three summers - 1993, 1994, 1995 - in a small Texas town, a beautiful popular teen, Kate, is abducted and, seemingly unrelated, a girl, Jeanette, goes from being a sweet, awkward outlier to the most popular girl in town and, by ’95, the most despised person in America.

Roughly 14h to watch every episode. This is an estimate: 20 episodes at the typical episode runtime of 42 minutes.
