Prime Video fans given 'zero tolerance' warning as hit drama returns after 2 years
Prime Video subscribers have received a stern warning against bullying and hate speech, as new episodes of a beloved teen drama are set to drop.
The Summer I Turned Pretty premiered on the streamer back in 2022 and is set to debut its third and final season on Wednesday, July 16.
Based on Jenny Han's bestselling YA novels of the same name, the show follows teenager Belly Conklin (played by Lola Tung) as she navigates a love triangle between brothers Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah Fisher (Gavin Casalegno).
Ahead of the new episodes, The Summer I Turned Pretty's official Instagram account issued a warning to viewers.
"Cousins is our safe place. Everything good, everything magical. Let's keep the conversation kind this summer," they wrote in an Instagram story posted on Monday, July 14.
The statement then clarified: "We have a ZERO tolerance policy for bullying and hate speech." The community guidelines include no 'hate speech or bullying,' no 'targeting cast or crew,' and no 'harassing or doxxing members of the community.' Those who break any of these rules will be banned.
While the light-hearted series has received overwhelming praise from viewers, with some dubbing it the "best show ever," it has also sparked heated debates among fans.
The book series already had a dedicated fanbase before Prime Video got its hands on the story. Therefore, readers were attached to the characters before the first season even dropped.
As such, fans have been known to share impassioned social media posts about which brother Belly should pursue.
In fact, lead actress Tung has previously addressed the sometimes "scary" responses from viewers.
Speaking to Teen Vogue earlier this month, she said: "I think we see with a lot of these love-triangle stories, people want the leading girl to end up with someone.
"When people have an attachment to the characters, they want to see it come together at the end. I'm so grateful that they care so much, but people get a little scary about it."
She continued, voicing her own plea for viewers: "Please don't threaten to kill someone if something doesn't go your way — I promise you, it's not that serious. Jenny [Han] is so smart and she cares so much about the story and making it the best story that it can be. It will be okay."
Although readers already know that Belly eventually chooses Conrad in the novels, author Han has confirmed that the forthcoming series will not be a page-by-page adaptation of the final book, We'll Always Have Summer. So some fans may be disappointed with how the teen drama ends.

Wicked star Ethan Slater cast in season two of superhero series Gen V
The show, which first aired in 2023, is a spin-off of the satirical Prime Video series The Boys, which is set in a world where superheroes are celebrities and able to get away with various wrongdoings because of the work of shadowy forces and their fame. Gen V focuses on a group of students at Godolkin University, the dedicated college that trains young adult superheroes, as they deal with interference from Vought International – the shadowy scientific and public relations company that manages superheroes globally. The new trailer for the second season reveals that Slater, who played Boq in the film adaptation of Wicked, will play the founder of Godolkin University. The Boys star, Chace Crawford, will make a guest appearance in the upcoming season as The Deep, a member of the elite superhero team, The Seven. Season two of Gen V will see the students return to college while living under the new rule of Homelander, the strongest superhero in the series and the show's antagonist. As war begins to brew between Humans and Supes both on and off campus, the students learn of a secret programme that goes back to the founding of Godolkin University and may have larger implications than they realise. Season Two will see the return of Jaz Sinclair as Marie Moreau, Lizze Broadway as Emma Meyer and Maddie Phillips as Cate Dunlap. London Thor will also be back on screens to play Jordan Li along with Derek Luh's Jordan Li, Asa Germann as Sam Riordan and Sean Patrick Thomas as Polarity. US actor Hamish Linklater will join the cast to play the mysterious Dean Cipher as he preaches a curriculum that promises to make students more powerful then ever. US-born actor Chance Perdomo, who grew up in the UK and had a main role as Andre Anderson, was set to return for a second season, but he died at the age of 27 last year after a motorcycle accident. Producers previously said that his character, who had the ability to control metal through magnetism, will not be recast in the upcoming season. The first three episodes of Gen V season two will premiere on September 17 on Prime Video.
