Remember when we mentioned that Snapchat was going to be releasing its own original content? Well it finally arrived and if the reactions from Twitter are any indication, it was abysmal. Literally Can’t Even is the name of this 4-5 minute web series and it doesn’t look like Snapchat’s foray into the entertainment world has resulted in quality content.
Snapchat’s first original web series has arrived, and it’s not pretty. The first episode of the aptly titled Literally Can’t Even debuted on the app’s new Snap Channel on Saturday. Episode one, called “Sip and Surf Pool Party XXX,” stars two 20-something best friends (played by Sasha Spielberg and Emily Goldwyn, who also wrote the show) in four-and-a-half minutes of cringeworthy video. (Example line: “He follows a lot of hotels on Twitter, which to me says nothing but chic.”) Needless to say, users were not impressed with Snapchat’s first attempt at original content, and quickly took to Twitter with their reactions.
