Adolescence Season 2 to be Shot in Rangeway. Just Kids Pegging Rocks at Cars.
Rangeway, WA — In a gritty return to its roots, Adolescence Season 2 will be filmed entirely in the scenic badlands of Rangeway, with producers confirming the season’s main plotline revolves around local kids doing what they do best — pegging rocks at passing cars.
Following the success of Stan’s Invisible Boys, also filmed in Geraldton, producers say Adolescence aims to capture “the other side of the tracks” — less inner turmoil, more outer chaos, with a heavier focus on flanno-wearing youth and airborne projectiles.

Showrunner Debbie Collier says the move is part of a bold new direction for the coming-of-age drama. “We wanted to explore the raw, unfiltered essence of youth,” she explained. “And nothing says 'teen angst' like launching a chunk of limestone at a Holden Commodore.”
The father figure in the new season, played by Shane Jacobson in trackies and a permanent squint, doesn’t see a problem with the behaviour. “What, this is just Tuesday arvo, mate,” cracking open a 1.25L coke. “When I was a kid we didn’t have TikTok. We had a cul-de-sac, a good arm, and a deep mistrust of sedans.”
Filming has already begun in Rangeway, where residents have reportedly responded to the production with a mix of confusion, pride, and the occasional retaliation rock. “We thought it was just the youth being the youth,” said one local, ducking behind a wheelie bin. “Turns out it’s a whole movement they've got going on.”
Critics are divided. Some say the show glorifies delinquency; others claim it’s the most accurate portrayal of regional adolescence ever put to screen. “It’s basically The Wire but everyone’s in thongs and someone’s uncle is always trying to sell a dirt bike that definitely doesn’t start,” said TV critic Mel Goodyear.
In true Adolescence fashion, the soundtrack will feature early-2000s Aussie bangers, including Hilltop Hoods, Jet, and the sound of a dog barking at a BMX. Season 2 will also introduce a recurring subplot involving the local servo, a boarded-up bottle-o, and an out-of-shape 4th grade footy player struggling with being a step-dad.
When asked whether throwing rocks at cars sends the wrong message, Jacobson’s character replies, “You reckon they built character with a fidget spinner? This is how you learn aim, mate.”
Streaming starts in June, or sooner if your cousin knows a bloke with a dodgy USB full of torrents.
