"Each season’s meta-textual genre experimentation plays with the pop-culture obsessions of millennials, which makes the harsh self-awareness fun and entertaining," says Britt Cannon. "The way the characters live their lives and respond to the increasingly unhinged events of the series is classic narcissistic, vapid, virtue-signaling millennial culture–especially because, when all is said and done, despite being objectively bad people (another trope millennials love–an irredeemable cast) each one of them is still absolutely fascinating to watch. The trajectory of the characters feels very similar to previous shows of the same vein such as Girls, Broad City, and Difficult People, but with the addition of increasing camp throughout the Seasons, Search Party is able to hold an even more revealing magnifying mirror up to 'Generation Me Me Me' without becoming too miserable to watch."
