Sandbox / Popularity Papers Series
Popularity Papers is a series adapted from the book series of the same name. It was released onto Hulu on April 25, 2024.

It follows two girls, Lydia Goldblatt and Julie Graham-Chang, who navigate middle school by making various attempts at becoming popular.


Examples:

  • Actor Allusion: Addison is the most popular kid in the entirety of Mapleview Middle School. Ms. O, who is also played by Millie Davis, is likewise incredibly popular in her respective show.
  • Alpha Bitch:
    • Averted for Addison, who is the most popular kid in school but is very nice.
    • Subverted for Sage, who is initially presented as a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing before venting to Lydia about how her dad puts pressure onto her to become a good actress.
  • Bird-Poop Gag: In one episode, a falcon poops on Lydia's shoulder while on a hiking trail.
  • Shout-Out: One of the episode titles is called "Odds Squads", a reference to Odd Squad, which shares cast members and writers.
