#LGBTRepresentation #Reaction #heartbreakhigh
Fun fact: The actor playing Darren's dad was actually in the original Heart Break High. his character's name was River which is similar to Spiders Character
I had such a huge crush on Rivers back in the day.
I think it was RiverS. As in Darren Rivers
His name was/is Peter rivers **
That and he date his son’s boss in high school.
And as far as representation? We have non-binary, ACE, lesbian, questioning (Malaki), spectrum, queer with different interests... I personally think this shows explores the full range of Queer better than almost any other.
I don't think Ca$h was hesitant with Darren because he was worried about risking his heart, I think he was worried about Darren's safety after his conversation with Amerie.
I became so emotional when I realized Darren was Ca$h's reason for staying in school!!
a lot of us gen z teens say this is one of the most accurate representation of communication in any show currently. a lot of shows make it cringe or you can just tell it was made by 30 year olds lmao. of course some themes and humor was more dramatized for the effect of the series, but harper's situation was too real as a young girl. the friendship dynamics were done so flawlessly too, love this show and your reactions to it!
Another fun fact: both Darren’s dad and boss were in the original Heartbreak High together and even dated!! Darren’s dad’s name was Peter Rivers and their boss’s name was Chaka. That’s why there’s that whole “YOURE their boss/father?!?!” Thing
yea they dated as well
@@realemmcee yeah I know that’s why I said it haha
Their relationship was low-key kinda like Missy and spiders, everyone in the new show is kinda like someone from the og.
I get folks not loving this, but to me it is top tier. It gets messy at times, but really hits some of the things kids really go through in the messy way life gets.
On another note, idk how because Cash is poor. But i sure hope he gets out. I wonder If Harper makes a statement to say he was the one to let her go and won’t press chargers against him if he’ll be let go. I def want more of him as his family. And i hope his grandma is okay.
Definitely want this to come out in season 2!
I really loved Heartbreak High actually, for me it's definitely top-tier- it's a different flavour than say Heartstopper, but I think both are very fun and important series when it comes to representation. I'm hoping we won't have to wait too long for season 2 :D
I can tell you that Harper not reporting her SA is something that's very common (edit: I forgot that she does but her being hesitant and nothing being done without proof). I reported mine 2 years after it happened and nothing was done by police and child services because he was a well known teacher. So i dont blame her at all. And i love the representation that they have with that situation in the show. Its needed and important.
I believe they are already filming the second season.
I'm so sorry that happened to you and that it was handled that way. I don't know if it's any help, but at least there's more chance of people being wary of him because you spoke up, and/or keeping an eye on him and his behavior. And if someone comes forward again, he's less likely to be believed.
I like Dash. Did we not promise you would come around to Cash in episode 1. Best line "Go and help her!"
I agree with Alex, this was a fun, mid-tier show. I have nothing bad to say about it at all. Have I rewatched this series a half dozen times like I have with shows like Heartstopper and Young Royals? No. Will I watch this season again? Probably not. However, when the second season returns, I'll be right on it. I can't wait to see what show you bring us next!!
We hope you are all excited for this series finale reaction! what are your thoughts about Heart Break High? did you Enjoy? is it good representation for the LGBTQ Community? let us know! xxx
I love it, I think everyone should watch !!
Guys next suggestion as 🏳️🌈 channel is
SPOILER ALERT MOVIE ( REAL LIFE STORY OF THE DIRECTOR AND HIS LATE HUSBAND)
In from the side.
Holding my man ( real life love story )
It's like a slap in the face that you enjoy.
I didn’t think that I’d get all the way through this series. I made it thanks to you both.
9-1-1 lone star next? There are 4 seasons, even if not reviewed it's worth a watch.
Thanks gents. Also, as an Australian and an old Millennial, I feel obliged to say that using Strawberry Kisses for Darren and Ca$h's climactic scene was... a choice. Keep up the fine work - looking forward to seeing what's next.
Oh thank god there’s someone else here with a similar background who knows the song! It was a pretty deep cut but the fact that it was so left field made the whole thing feel so camp, I actually kind of loved it hahaha
I lost my mind when it started playing 😂 I had to rewatch the scene.
what's the deal with strawberry kisses if you don't mind explaining?
@@fortross4182 It was a very popular song in Australia in the early 2000s, the singer, Nikki Webster, sang the national anthem at the Sydney olympics. It's just very niche and Australian because our music and pop culture doesn't always filter over to other countries.
@@daniellechapman1842 ah, i see. thanks!
I fucking love how they put let it happen for the car scene, I swear that it made it 100 times better
They got renewed for a second season!!
SEASON 2 NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!
I love this show so much, can't wait for the second season. I am only worried about the consequences of the car trashing, it's 21st century, there are cameras everywhere =/
Hopefully, next season sees some happier endings for everyone!
I love Cash and Darren and I love how the "cleansing/swimming" scene used my favorite CHAIM song "I Want You Back". Love you guys! Great job!
Nah this is definitely TOP TIER.
I have to tell you both that I absolutely adore your comments because you're funny when you're supposed to be but you manage to dig deeper and make intelligent, relevant analysis.
you are wonderful.
Thank you for reacting to season 1 of HBH. Can't wait for your reactions to season 2. Well done.
oh Im gonna cry
not if we do first!
Second season is out btw!! I just watched your recap to recap lol now I can start watching
I absolutely love this show. It might not be the best queer representation, but if I were to pick a show for the best Gen Z representation, it would definitely be this show.
i love you guys, and i loved your reaction to this series!!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! It was an intense series x
I cant wait for the next season but I also cannot wait for you guys reacting to our flag means death season 2
I absolutely love this show and lapped up both seasons. I find it interesting that you guys use terms like "aggressive", etc. to describe the show when they're just showing the very real heartbreaking nature of our times - interspersed with the fun/sexual/awkward teenage stuff. The abuse that can happen living with an addict, police violence used against people of color/gay folks, living as a person on the spectrum, class/race/gender/identity issues - and how all these wounds ripple through both individuals and the community. I love shows like this that show the messy truth of our lives - a rainbow of individuals flipping over stereotypes, warts (of all types), sexualities or lack thereof, and the reality of growing up in a fucked up world and trying to make any kind of sense of it. So they use a lot of swear words and fingers. An absolutely valid response in my mind to this world. That's exactly why I love this show. And I adore gran!
If you want to see how much Darren's dad has changed you should watch the original heart break high
literally in love with this show! loved ur commentary! i recommend watching the polish movie Fanfic - it came out earlier this year and it is has some AMAZING trans and queer rep, the entire plotline revolves around a trans guy. It's not the best film in terms of a substantial plot, but it's focus on transgender and queer representation is absolutely wonderful and as a trans guy myself I felt like it was a great depiction of the trans experience and how others react to it. The movie is also quite beautiful itself, plus the representation is even more amazing when you consider the fact that it was made in Poland, which is currently quite a queerphobic country. luv you guys!!
season 2 just came out, you need to watch it
Season 2 coming in APRIL ❤ confirmed
Fun fact - the actress who played harper was shaving her real hair in the bathroom scene.
She then used a wig to shoot the flashback scenes of her (and amerie) at the festival and of the rest of that night etc
Darren is so amazing, I want to have them as my best friend! 💕
I have already watch season 2 of Heartbreak High
i rlly hope you guys react to season 2
your realization seeing the moment that turned the show really dark
Amerie was way too forgiving imo. I can see Harper being angry and maybe even ending their friendship because Amerie left her at the festival. But the silent treatment, the physical violence, hooking up with Dusty, taking advantage of Malakai (after what she went through?!)...thats just too much. What she experienced was horrifying but the way she behaved towards Amerie wasn't justified.
Yeah she took everything out on her. Their friendship seems to have an imbalance. Amerie is the giver in this scenario I think that’s why Harper had such an extreme reaction for her “letting her down”. None of what happened to Harper was Ameries fault and even her letting her down after seeing spider their all of it made sense from Ameries. Harper on the other hand non of it is justified in regards to Amerie especially her hooking up with both boys that Amerie liked what kind of ish that.
WATCH SEASON 2 PLEASEEEEE
Why have you guys stopped doing the little after credits bits? I really liked them.
Please react to “ Of An Age” next. Thank you and I enjoyed this reaction series of “Heartbreak High”. You are the reason I binged the whole series.
Have you seen Eyewitness is a Serie with Drama and Crime and the Gay lovestroy! 🏳️🌈😊
Loved yall's reaction 😊
New recommendation: Dating amber (movie) ❤
Ohhh its on the list and we hope to react to it soon! Xxx
Will you react to season two ?
Oooh what do we think the next reaction show will be?
Maybe Pose? 🤷🏻♀️
I think they did a really good representation of a general overview of how gen z tends to behave and think, although I personally wasn't a fan of how they brushed over Harper's home situation and further more Ant's but I can appreciate how they kept it real enough where none characters were like, 'oh yeah im just like super traumatised'/'ive just got all this trauma'
Season Two will probably be in a couple months!!
Da$h 💜
Dash for the win ❤️
Damn! That was intense 😳
Season 2 when?
Good omens please!!!
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yessssss 🖤🩶
SEASON 2 APRIL 2024!!!!

"Uncut so hard..." yas I luv uncut SO hard too...come to Hawai'i PLEASE October is our PRIDE month. I'll b y'all tour guide🎉🦄🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🥰🫦🤤
Glad you like it too haha... oh we've always wanted to go to Hawaii!
@ Alex and @ Josh, you should go to Hawaii, the love vib and aloha spirit is amazing. In proud month, it's probably out of the chart...
It was great, now look at SKAM! pleeeeeeeaaaaseeee
PLSS WATCH THE SECOND SEASON
I need a drink now
Same here! A strong one! 🤣
I love your videos. I'm just not sure if it's smart to show the climax of the video in the first seconds. I often only watch reaction videos to build up to the climax and then be surprised how they react. You take that mystery in the first seconds. Maybe you could show the moment before the climax, but I don't think people watch more of the video if the most anticipated part with all the excitement is taken from them at the beginning of the video.
Again, love your videos, but I just can't ignore that part.
A second season is coming… 💔 🏫 🏳️🌈
honestly im pretty on the fence about darren and ca$h as a couple, simply because darren clearly enjoys sex and ca$h doesnt... i would love both the story where they make it work but also the story where they realize that some people just arent compatible, so im excited to see where it goes
Hey guys, my comment is late but i hope you see this.
It would be lovely if you reacted to Papa and Daddy.
It is a taiwanese show that focuses on a married gay couple with a kid.
Would love to see your reaction to it♥️♥️♥️♥️
Is me, Cash, am, quinnie, and darren against the world.
All the best characters!
@@AStoryWorthTelling my core 4😭😭 and Cash is still by baby girl actually
Wow. From episode one there was this suggestion that her secret would justify all of the harm and evil she did throughout and this was NOT it. Indeed, even now, she would not acknowledge her fault in creating all of the horrors throughout the season, treating it all as some comical outcome of unfortunate circumstances.
she went through extremely traumatic experience but it does not excuse what she did to malakai or amerie
Yes, you can understand Harper better after this episode, but you can also understand Spiders character so much better after this. He was embarrassed in front of his crush and she just loughed. She wouldn't even tell her best friend, because she dosen't see Spider as a real dating option. She feels like she is so much better then him.
If you want another wild ride of a show with queer representation, I recommend Wreck!

Please react to Dance of the 41 ❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🎀🤍
what harper went through was disgusting but treating Amerie like worse than shit and not even apologizing after becoming friends again is annoying and makes me start to not like harper
This was a great ending although it was horrible what happened to Harper. This show reminded me of the LGBQTA HBOMAX series Genera+ion; which is now on tubitv (Do you guys have tubi in the UK?) Keep up the good work guys, I really enjoy your channel ❤
