All the actors were brilliant in this series but Kit Connor definitely has to take the No 1 spot for his brilliant portrayal of the lovely Nick even over Olivia Coleman!!
@@brianmusson2789 they're both amazing actors, kit really illustrated nick in a beautiful way. but personally I think joe takes the number 1. considering its his first time acting I think he did a wonderful job playing Charlie, he really delineated Charlie's character. It's sad that both Joe and Charlie are so underrated considering Charlie is the main character. Also, Olivia Coleman is an amazing actress, she is a literal queen. I don't think its fair to compare such an experienced actress with Kit. It's about personal preference though, you thought that Kit stood out among the cast while I think that Joe did particularly well
The whole cast is OUTSTANDING, but Kit Connor gives the best hugs in mankind history, I wish I could find someone like him just for a hug or the rest of my life. I absolutely love the whole cast, Alice and the whole Crew for making this so adorable and optimistic, and make me believe in the innocent love again, sorry, I'm a dreamer even at my late 30s.
I don't think I've ever been so madly in love with a show before. I mean, series like Friends and HIMYM are jewels in their own right, but this one has tugged at my heartstrings in a way I can't even begin to explain. I can't pinpoint what exactly it is about the series (or the comic, which I completed in one sitting), but the simplicity, sweetness, poignancy and innocence of it has worked some kind of magic on me. Maybe another factor is that I could relate to all the characters at some level. Like Nick, I have taken those "Am I bisexual" quizzes a number of times. I could identify with his confusion and his feeling of getting overwhelmed and scared. Like Charlie, I know what it feels like to develop feelings for a friend whose sexuality you're not sure of. There were countless small (yet priceless) moments between each of the couples (especially Charlie and Nick, of course) that we witnessed throughout the series. I could see myself in them -- I was reminded of my school years, my first love, and how the most insignificant moments between us are still vividly clear in my memory. Be it Nick's pen explosion, Charlie's bonding with Nellie, Nick's sudden gesture of hugging a "cuddly" Charlie, Nick's hesitation to touch Charlie's hand while he was asleep, Nick gently removing the mud from an injured Charlie's cheek, Nick calling Charlie "Char", Nick shyly entwining his fingers with Charlie's at a horror film, their awkward laughs and "Why are we like this?".. Each moment evoked a sense of nostalgia in me of a world I have left behind forever. A piece of innocence that I'll never own again. I have probably not gotten attached to fictional characters so much since FRIENDS or HIMYM. And I don't know why, but the characters being young and inexperienced compared to the main leads of the other series developed in me an inexplicable feeling of affection owards them. Each character leaves his mark, but the true "Heartstopper" (at least for me) would be Nick. It was so refreshing to see a typical "jock" character whom most other creators wouldn't hesitate to caricaturize not falling prey to any of the familiar tropes. There are moments when I simply wanted to reach through the screen and give him a hug. His honesty, sensitivity, thoughtfulness, self-restraint, childlike innocence and considerate nature bowled me over. Considering both the comic and the production, Nick will go down as one of the most beloved fictional characters I will remember. My heart goes out to Charlie too.. Everything he's been through, how it has seeped into his personality making him self-effacing and excessively apologetic and how he and Nick fight against all of it together ❤️. The very decision of the showmakers not to unnecessarily complicate the series or drag the narrative with redundant subplots has rendered the series almost flawless, so to say. And the LGBTQ+ centricity of the story enriches it even more - with all the hesitation about "coming out", the fear of judgement, the uncertainty of whether feelings are unrequited or mutual. I finished all four volumes and I really hope the series does justice to it in the upcoming seasons too. Series dealing with LGBTQ representation and mental health issues have been made many a time before. But the very fact that we got to look at these issues from the perspective of an inexperienced teenager augments the effectivity of the portrayal in a way I can't explain. Nick's efforts to tell Charlie about his eating disorder, his mom standing solidly by him as he tried as he tried to help Charlie, Charlie's subsequent spiralling and his journey (which is beautifully pointed out to be likely a lifelong one) left an indelible impact on me. And don't get me started on Nick and Charlie😭. I can't get enough of their goofy smiles and shy glances at each other, their passionate hugs, their teasing and their beautiful, beautiful love. Count me among the biggest shippers omfg🤧. And I loved how the comic kinda blended into the series through the cartoon fires and sparks, animated snowfall, the sand and the sea at the beach, and of course the leaves🍃. Not getting over any of it anytime soon. Also the SOUNDTRACK! Probably the best since HIMYM that a soundtrack blended so well with the series and its characters. My favourites are: 1. Don't delete the kisses 2. Sappho 3. Dance with me 4. Why am I like this 5. My own person 6. What's it gonna be 7. I want to be with you 8. Any other way 9. I belong in your arms Listened to each of them multiple times.
Wow, I loved your detailed comment. It resonnates a lot with me. Agree about so many things I woudnt know where to start. Thanks for sharing, I love these characters (book and series) so much too.❤
The Hi counter made me laugh so hard, but that's just so cute, like it's the only thing they need to say to communicate at first but also later in the show
Ive rewatched and re-read the comics i cant deal. i could consume only alice oseman content for the rest of my life if she pumped out enough to keep up with me😂
During the scene when Nick is watching Tara and Darcy at Harry's party i like to think whenever Nick is turning away to go find Charlie he's just thinking: "Mkay 🫢 Alright😗 Okay- now where's👏 Charlie i✨️ wanna do that😌"
Here's what's even creepier: Ben isn't seen anywhere in the group when they're leaving the movie. That means he purposely slipped out into the parking lot ahead of everyone else, just to ambush Charlie. Creepy times 100.
4:26 can someone please tell me what the original thing they're reacting to is? That's such an insane reaction and I need to know what they were watching
I laughed loud a lot while watching this video, Heartstopper just makes me so happy, makes me smile. Actually I even cried of happiness at the end. That show is amazing, everyone should watch it ❤️🥹
All the actors were brilliant in this series but Kit Connor definitely has to take the No 1 spot for his brilliant portrayal of the lovely Nick even over Olivia Coleman!!
incorrect, its all about Charlie
@@katzgar No it is about Nick and Charlie and both actors did brilliant jobs but Kit’s experience just edged him above Joe in my opinion

33 year old gay man here. I've watched it multiple times. 🤦♂️
I totally agree with you!! Kit Conor gives golden retriever vibes.
You are not allowed to use the "s" word. I'm also in my late 30s and feel the same way! ❤
Heartstopper is 75% just Nick and Charlie saying Hi 🤣🤣
I love Tao’s face when nick suggested rugby to him😂
These two are legitimately my new comfort characters. I can’t with them ❤️
Honestly. I find Charlie so relatable, and I want a Nick in my life one day
Me too, me too
Okay but Kit’s smile is so cute I cANT😭
same he can put a rare face and he will always be seen like an Angel .🥰
nick nelson is everyone’s new favorite comfort character
