Gotta take into account most the actors are EIGHTEEN that’s crazy, personally for me this is the best gay rep I’ve seen. Better than love Simon/Victor. It’s definitely UP there with Young royals.
Oooh is young royals worth the watch?? I’m in need of more good gay rep after the fluff of heartstopper
@@Icyyddoll Young Royals is fantastic! Watch it!
Love, Victor is an amazing show too! You better not underestimate it. Heartstopper, Young Royals, and Love, Victor are the best gay love story series we have. So we don't need to compare them. Why can't we love all of them?
@@Lale_Canfeda Love Víctor is amazing.
@@Icyyddoll omg yes you have to watch young royals it really is amazing
I think the actors are doing a pretty job since they're very new and young.
I like how awkward they are, it’s so cute 😊
I didn't feel like it was rushed or shallow, but to each their own.
I'm gonna say it now: you won't like the pacing, because they don't mention much the time passing. In the comics it's pretty obvious when days/weeks/months are passing, but the show doesn't make it so explicit, so you'll probably think things are rushed when actually it's just that they aren't really showing the time passing. I think for the first episode, for example, it were a least like a couple of weeks.
I mean, they explicitly mention the passing of months in ep2 and the whole hi - hi montage is pretty obviously meant to represent at the very least like a week, but more likely some weeks. Then there's the rugby montage which includes two dressing room shots, so is also at the very least taking place on three separate occasions. They're not explicitly labeling the weeks or months but it's pretty clear that quite some time is passing.
In the first scene, the headmaster says "Happy New Year" over the loudspeaker, and Charlie's phone shows "Monday 4th January." His teacher also tells him Happy New Year. In the final scene with Ben when he says "It's not even cold," Charlie tells him "It's February." When Nick looks at his phone in his mum's car, it says "Monday 1 February." So if you're paying attention, it shouldn't be hard to figure out how much time has passed. Same for the other episodes.
I really enjoyed this series (binged watched it all already) I think its very true to the graphic novels, and it's just a nice sweet show. I know what you mean about it feeling a bit rushed at the start, but I hope you stick with it and enjoy it, look forward to hearing your thoughts as it progresses. I was shocked when I saw Olivia Coleman too!
You should DEFINITELY read the comics. This is one of the best book adaptations I’ve ever seen because the author was a really bit part of the creation of the show
I mean their teens in high school what else are they supposed to act like??¿¿ So that's very confusing, They nailed it perfectly especially coming from a novel into live action which is something special now if you would have read the novels maybe you'd appreciate it more and things would click more easily just a thought.
It felt rushed, but I liked it actually. There's a lot of story packed in an episode, which is like a breath of fresh air after having watched Elite where almost nothing important happens lol
I was shocked when Olivia came, too! I agree with you about the episode being shallow, since, I mean, I watched the first ep together with my friend and I'm more excited than her because for starter, I was able to read the comic so I know what to expect from it unlike her. So there's that, but yeah, I agree since watching the first episode feels like the typical netflix teen shows out there. BUT, I can assure you that it's not! I think you'll like the next episodes more 😉. Great reaction and review!
AHHHH i love the graphic novels so much and i think the show did a good job for what it is, a wholesome cheesy romance :)
this show is soooooooo cute. didn't love the first ep but it gets so much better
Christ, that was cynical. Heartstopper won't be everyone's cup of tea, which is of course totally valid, but it's pretty near perfect for what it is/what it's trying to achieve.
100% agree. This reaction video is nothing but TRASH, imo.
It’s based on a graphic novel btw :)
I'm not gonna lie, you are gonna HATE the pacing of this show. I have read the comics before and in that format it doesnt feel so off, but knowing you, you are gonna hate the time skips with barely any mention. Just be prepared, they tried to adapt comic format to a tv show format and overall I'd say they did pretty well, and stuck by a lot of the original work, but the overall pace feels really weird. This show will def feel really cheese at times for relying on stereotypes a bit much, but in otherways it will go above and beyond in terms of character development and dialogue. There are some beautiful shots in the next episodes too that are just breath taking. Hope you enjoy the ride
The headmaster's voice is Stephen Fry's, did you not recognize it? I thought it was hilarious!
It is such a cute series! I don't know about the comics but I loved it nontheless. The relationships no matter romantic or platonic are great and way more realistic for teenagers than shows that cast 20 somethings as high schoolers.
Isaac is basically me back in school and Nick is so adorable I wanna adopt him so badly.
I’m so glad you’re reacting to this!
This series means so much to me. The fact that I wish I had this show when I was in middle school and first questioning/freaking out about my sexuality. Yes it's light-hearted, yes it's cheesy, but there is such a lack of good accurate lgbtq+ representation in media that doesn't just end in a tragic way. I really found it all to be such a breath of fresh air : watching a beautiful queer story without having to worry about something horrible happening to one of the characters and just destroying the relationship or sth, for once... it feels like a warm blanket :)
I am SO happy you've decided to watch this!
Well you saying Nicolas nelson sounds like a royal name is really funny because olivia colman plays his mum XD
It may seem quite fast pace but if you would have read the graphic novels it’s literally PERFECT. There is so much to fit in and looking at pictures is obviously quite a fast pace :) There’s characters are perfect
YOU ARE FASTT YESS I JUST FINISHED I LOVED ITT
i think that this is a definitely a feel-good series, like it’s not got the most deep plot ever and it is (imo) kinda cringe at some parts but i enjoyed it anyway cause it’s just a nice show to watch mindlessly LOL
4:40 welcome to the uk!
you’re literally the first person ive seen who didn’t love this show... what are your biases? because, sorry, this show is literally perfect.
The fuck😂no biases at all, I just think the acting / script is that great at all, I appreciate it’s a story like this being told for a younger generation though which I think is a really good thing. And you’re saying I don’t love this show based on my reaction to episode 1, which was by far the weakest ep of the show
So excited you are reacting to this!! it is an amazing show!!!!
Great first episode reaction , can't wait for episode 2 reaction
The whole show just feels very fictional, especially the sexual assault scene coming along with the hero saving the beauty plot. The characters’ images and plots are nothing new from every fiction in general. But there’s not many lgbtq shows like this out there, so it’s good to see this all soft and sweet fairy tale.
i watched all the episodes already and i really loved the show. i do think that the book is better, but this was really good too and something i’ve been like really waiting for. the first episode wasn’t that good but not bad either, it gets better as it goes on.
omg i didn't know you were gonna watch this! so glad you are
2:09 you are so wrong for that😂😂😂💀💀
The graphic novel is quite fast especially in the first volume so they were probably just trying to replicate the novels as best they can. I loved the first episode but I definitely think it improves after.
Love you and you’re personality and channel
I read the comics like 1 or 2 years ago (it's hard to tell with the pandemic lol) so I don't remember much of the story, but it's sooo heartwarming to watch it and be like "oh yeah! His sister! Omg she looks so much like in the comics!" and then "omg that's righttt, he gets in the rugby team!" and then "oh that's right! This guy's girlfriend is a trans girl!" and so on
Looking forward to watching this
I think episodes 3-8 are soo much better than the first 2. I actually was kinda dissapointed when i started watching it with a friend. It seemed like a very cliché romance show and the chemistry between Charlie and nick felt so rushed. I didn't hate it but it also wasn't something special. But in episode 3 I really got into it and from that point forward the show was amazing. I actually want to read the comics/books now because I believe that the time that passes between the different scenes comes across more clearly and i just love getting to know the characters even more.
But didn’t days pass by in this first episode. All the times they were saying hi in the hallway were different days. So not as rushed as it seems.
Love this series 💕
I really love this show
i haven't watched one of ur videos in so long it makes me so upset u got rid of ur old set up lol
Hey! When's friends reaction coming?
This show is beautifully cute
You gotta read the comics this show is based on, the pacing works much better there
I watched the hole season because has OLIVIA in there
Yeah, this show is cheesy and kinda shallow, but it's supposed to be just a cute little romance
Yeah it deffo felt like a Wattpad adaptation idk if thats the writing or if it actually comes from a source material that i'm not aware of
I'm not won over yet but I don't tend to like many british shows I just find them cringier than most (im british btw)
I can see it being a fun show for younger gay kids though having that representation and cliche tropes used for a gay romance for once and not having to have incredible acting to enjoy it
Its based on a webtoon with the same name
it's based on a comic/graphic novel, yes! the show is very similar to the comic at least in the first half and it mirrors the pace of it too, but while for a comic the quick pacing works, here in this first episode it does feel rushed. I adore the comics, there are some cliche tropes but I find it unique compared to other lgbt media that has come out recently, it is sincere, wholesome and while there are things that might feel comical to older viewers, I think its a pretty accurate representation of teenagers at that age. I enjoyed the show but as so many book to film adaptions do, it added too much unnecessary angst, which the lack of was actually one of the best parts of the comics for me
You comparing Charlie too Naruto is too funny.
Shallow? Sorry, but this ain’t a dramatic interpretation of a third rate Lady Gaga song…
I dont get the critism from Joe, this show is super cute and well written, shot, acted... I'm not sure Joe can ever be satisfied or maybe its just his personality to nag on everything lol.
No I just disagree 😅I don’t think it was well shot, acted or scripted (based on episode 1 alone, episode 2 was way better)
@@TrophyReacts okay fair enough!
I think some things deserve your roasting but this i was pleasantly surprised by. We'll see how you feel about the remaining episodes lol.
Could you pretty please consider doing Our Flag Means Death?
When you watching Moon Knight?
I prob won't watch the remaining reacts in this series. Overall not much detail in this react, no research into the subject matter or series, very little thought to the intended audience, unoriginal observations. Remarks were snide instead of critical. Rather like watching paint dry...
Okay
I could only watch until drawing the smile on the hand bit, I feel like I'm way too old for this show.
Why did I get an anti-trans ad on this video
Just started watching this and came to see your reaction. Tbh I agree: it was too fast-paced for the first episode and the acting wasn’t great. I wasn’t invested in the romance at all because he just liked him straight away. A little build up would’ve served it better.
The acting isn’t great, I know they’re young but so were the ST kids and they were/are phenomenal actors but they were a bit of an anomaly I guess. Hopefully they will improve.
Overall seems like a cute show for the target audience. I’m too old (late 20s) to relate to a lot of this now I think: it’s so very different to my own school days. You can tell it’s geared toward young teens. I’m glad people are enjoying it though.
The acting isn’t that great? LOL that’s a weird take. Wait. Are you straight? Because I’ve noticed that can be a factor in sensing chemistry and even the subtlety in the acting of these specific characters. I feel like since straight people haven’t really lived with a lackof representation and have never had to hide who they love or get bullied for it, there’s a lot of nuance that gets missed.
Also Kit Connor who plays Nick is phenomenal and it’s evident from the beginning. If you don’t see it by the second episode you’re a lost cause tbh
