The Netflix show, which debuted in March, follows the story of Hannah, a young woman who tragically takes her own life. In a series of 13 tapes, she lays out the events that led her to commit suicide.

The show premiered to mixed reviews, some praising it for the way in which it explored real life issues that teenagers face, while others claimed that the series glorified the act of suicide. Its fate was ultimately left up in the air, some urging Netflix to pick it up for a second season, which the streaming service eventually did.

“They want to make sure everyone knows that this is unacceptable behavior on our production and if you ever feel unsafe in any way, do not hesitate to reach out,” Dorfman added.
