We need the wrap up video for this one!!
omg I need the second episode asap🛐 HOWEVER please change to the subtitles instead of closed caps, because the CC is for the dubbed english (aka worse) audio😂
Alex, from what country are you?
Nice to see your reaction
Yesss plz continue reacting to it!!
Actually, I already finished watching the series in Netflix but it's just nice listen to your reaction and your opinion
i dunno if anyone else mentioned this already, but the other kids (apart from august who is wilhelm's cousin) aren't royals, they're just from big rich families. so it's a school for rich people, basically.
Yes, the Elitists, or "1%"...hence why Elite is called such.
@Nevieth not really actually. It’s either really smart kids who outperform school, and the children who stay on campus do pay (that’s why Simon gets a completely different treatment from August than the other boys). Someone said schools aren’t allowed to charge students. All schools have to be free, but a way to get around it is to provide extras like making them stay there
@@jemappellemerci aaaaah, now I understand why Simon and Sara are studying at a school for rich people. I thought they had scholarships or something to study there because are from Bjärstad and have really good grades.
@@allanapereira8200 you were right tho, August has a whole deal with his admission fee, that means this school is definitely not free when it comes to education
@@Emilia-ll3ii but i guess they just pay to be residents? That's why Sara blackmailed August in episode 6. But thinking better here, the principal said August had to leave the school if he didn't pay the fees...
The scene where Wille tries to sing the song with Simon is actually improvised by the actors.
OMG URE PROFILE PHOTO IS ADORABLE, MY BABY COLE LOOKS SO CUTE
@@clayy3857 omg thank youu! I miss anne with an e😩😭💔
@@harperandrea4462 still fricking mad they cancelled the show, i didn't even get to see cole get a boyfriend :((
@@clayy3857 omg yes ='/ I wanted to see his story more because he was such a unique character.
WAITTT OMFG REALLY?????
"HIS INSTAGRAM PICTURE? THAT DOES IT FOR YOU?" I fcking died lmao
I love that one of Wilhelm and Simon’s first “interactions” is basically:
*Simon:* Eat the rich.
*Wilhelm, internally:* Yes, please do.
Your August comment about knocking him into September honestly made me laugh so hard. PLEASE continue!
I'm literally dying at that ryna
Same, I made my whole family watch that little part, but they didn't get it because they didn't know what it was about 😂
I´m like trying not to laugh to loud ´cause of my mum and dad but it´s hard, it´s really hard! I´m dying :))
That shit was funny af
It’s possible someone has already clarified this, but in Sweden the sale of alcohol is monopolised, so there is only one store chain that is allowed to sell it (except for bars, pubs and restaurants), and you have to be 20 years old to buy. So a lot of teens get adults to buy it for them for parties. So Simons dad would be known for buying alcohol for underage people. 😊
Thanks for explaining it..... I just didn't understand why they just didn't buy alc
Thanks for that. I just assumed they couldn't get out to a shop to buy it.
I really really love the fact that simon (even tho he's not popular or whether whatever) is actually pretty confident and is not all shy
*Simon, but it’s almost the same
@@Olivia-tz8rl oop- thanks lol
omg yessssss you reacted to it. I'm gonna watch it rn. Fun fact: the actor for Wilhem (Edvin Rydings) has been acting since he was 5 and the actor for Simon (Omar Rudberg) was famous from before since he used to be in a boyband but this is his ACTING DEBUT which is crazy cause he played Simon perfectly
And the actor who plays Simon is a singer which explains his amazing voice
What was the boy and called
I mean tbh you can definitely tell it's his debut
@@keziajoylondon5362 the fooo
@@theae1652 yes, but he does it really well. He makes his expressions convincing and realistic.
"Is Wilhelm in love?" my mind was like: Aren't we all? hahahaha
"I'm going to knock you into September, " damn, that really ended me... Sir you have no right being this funny😭
about ”dealing” booze:
you can only get alcohol at a certain ”alcohol store” in sweden and you have to be 20 or older to be able to, and they are very strict about ID. so it is common for an older person to buy the alcohol and then sell it to a younger person in private, for parties and stuff.
I just noticed it even says in google translate that to ”köpa ut” (to ”buy out”) translates to ”buy alcohol for minors” hahah
I’m turning 27 this year and I still get ID’d lol. That’s how strict they are 👌🏻
quick clarification on Felice! she's not actually royalty, she comes from a very wealthy family, hence wanting to get with Will (and "having royal children"), i think the instagram comments are from friends/other people at school, but yes pretty spot on on she pretending for media.
Loving the commentary! Yes this is the new skam vibes we needed.
Yeah, she is not royalty, just nobility. Her last name, Ehrencrona, indicates that she from a noble family.
She's the new nobility, which is the ultra rich. August is old nobility and a second cousin to Wilhelm. Wilhelm is royalty.
@@treetzar1107 Being just ultra rich doesn´t make you nobility.
Ehrencrona became nobility in 1743, so not that new.
yes wilhelm has anxiety , the actor Edvin Ryding said he took a lot his experience with anxiety to portrait wilhelm's. Fu fact: a lot of simon and Wilhelm's interactions were improvised by the actors like willie singing , and Frida the actress who plays sara also has asperger like the character and yr show was Omar's (simon) debut as an actor
Way older viewer of this series. I loved how you noticed that Willie was always nervous, whenever he was around Simon. Yet, he made sure to get Simon to be aware of him, at all times. Introducing himself, letting him know that he liked his point of view on things, and him chasing him down at that party. Willie can't hide his feelings for Simon.
It dawning on Alex when Wille was looking at Simon for the first time that this was gonna be a gay love story was hilarious
fun fact: that last scene was pretty much just improvised
and all best scenes are improvised. Like fish-scene, football station-scene and Willes "jag älskar dig" (I love you) scene :)
If you see me on every young royals reaction,, just don't mind me.. I can't get over this show
this is me rn
So relatable rn
Same😅
YESSS pleaseee do the whole season ive literally become OBSESSED with this show in the past two weeks and i NEED more content while i wait for season 2😭🤚
SAME SIS 😭💅🏻
IM WATCHING EVERY REACTION VIDEO I CAN FIND 😭
SAME
same! i need the reactions to survive till Netflix renews it
Love this reaction! Just to clarify a few things (I am Swedish):
* Hillerska is a fictional school, but it is at least to some extent based on the two major boarding schools of Sweden - Lundsberg and Sigtuna. Actual Swedish prince Carl-Philip attended Lundsberg, as have several others from the Royal family since the founding of the school.
* The initiation that is shown may seem extreme, but it could actually happen. It is quite common for the people in their first year of high school to be initiated by the older students, and at some schools it gets quite bad - especially at one of the two major boarding schools. (Reports about serious injuries made them tone it down somewhat, but it is still quite extreme. In 2013 at least two students were burned quite badly when older students put a hot iron (that you normally use to iron clothes) on their backs. The nine students, and one faculty member, that were involved were fired/expelled if I remember correctly). I know a person who had to do the "drink spit from a cup" (though it was mixed with alcohol for her) and I also know some people who were tied to statues and then covered in ice cold water and then left there...
* 1 USD is about 8.50 Swedish kronor. The school fee of Lundsberg (meaning one of the schools Hillerska is based on) is about 300 000 SEK and at Sigtuna it is over 350 000 SEK, meaning that Hillerska probably cost about the same, meaning around 35 000-40 000 USD per school year. It is not technically attending the school that cost money (as school has to be free according to Swedish law) but it is the boarding part that cost that much.
* As boarding schools are typically located quite far from the major cities boarding is necessary in order to study there. It is never mentioned how far away Simon and Sarah lives from the school, but one can assume that they spend more that just a short time on the the bus/in the car in order to get to and from school. For the kids from wealthy families, their families would live even further away, either in the fancy parts of Stockholm, or on large properties in the countryside, meaning that their kids can't attend the school unless they live there.
* As others have explained - Hillerska is a school for the rich, not just royals. As only the closest family gets royal titles, a whole school just for them wouldn't work. For example, today Sweden have a King and his wife, the Queen. They have three children, all of whom have royal title (prince/princess). However, only two of the three children's spouses have royal titles (the one not getting it is Christopher who married the youngest princess. The reason he didn't get it was because he didn't want to become a Swedish citizen (he is American) and also because he wanted to remain working in the private business sector.) However, their children have not gotten titles either, not because of their father, but because they are too far down in the order of succession. The children of the second child of the current King do have titles, but their children will most likely not get them (if they have children).
"This August dude, I'm gonna knock you into September"🤣👌🏻 I'm dead
The frog is from a fairytale, "the princess and the frog". The frog is actually a prince that has been turned into a frog, and the only way for him to be turned back is a kiss.
That's the american version. In the actual version the frog gets thrown against a wall because the princess does NOT want to kiss or sleep in the same bed with him, just because he got her golden ball from the well.
Could be alluding to the end of the show with **spoiler for people who haven't seen it** simon leaving Wille to have him find out what he really wants.
I love how all reactors say ”Why can’t they buy alcohol? Is that a thing in Sweden” and then reacts to Felice like ”Ooouw 😱🤢”. This is a quite actual portrayal though. Swedes binge drink until we vomit or pass out. This is why we cannot have nice things. Hence we have state owned liqour stores with limited opening hours.
Delivery guy plz deliver more episodes
I 2nd this!
" he looked at me ?!" took me out because I had the same reaction LMAO
The 1 dislike is August when he said he would kick him into september lmao
23:04 ‘Royalty has approached to you twice’
You ain’t lying tho 😂
The popular girl (Felice) is lower level nobility but her family is immensely wealthy, more so than some of the higher nobility at the school. A person like that wouldn’t be a celebrity per se but since she’s from a prominent family there’d be some degree of public interest in her and she would have a large social media following.
I actually think those comments might have been from her friends. Things like "I would die for you" and "I'm dying, you're so pretty" are really common (at least for a certain type of girl) to comment on her friends' posts as a way to show appreciation. It's mostly just hyperbole, and it kind of has the same vibe as people saying "omg, love you!" whenever someone in their life does something nice.
"This August dude, I'm going to knock you into September"
That was the best threat I've ever heard lmao-
i thought that everybody at the school would be stuck up too, but surprisingly, they weren't! It wasn't even close to what I thought it was going to be like. It was a really nice surprise and a change
That's probably because this is Sweden.
@@erikperhs_ I remember some years ago watching an interview with Alexander Skarsgård where he explained that they have something called Jantelagen and how it's basically a life philosophy of being humble and never thinking you're more special than others just because you're rich/succesfull. I never heard of it before even tho I'm European myself, but I thought it was a really beatiful concept.
THE TITLE. WE ABSOLUTELY AGREE.
True
"I'm gonna knock you into September." 😂
Facts: Elvin (the prince) is only 18 years old, he was 16-17 whilst filming Young Royals, probably the youngest one there, so proud of him, (I sound like his mum) 🥰
I went in totally blind, too. I was not sold by the trailer. I was not looking for another teen drama. I did not know anything about it. But once I saw it, I was hooked. I have now re-watched it 3 times. Totally didn't know I needed to see this one, but so glad I did. The actors/writers/directors did a fantastic job. Loved this show.
Alcohol is actually hard to get in Scandinavia, partly because it’s expensive
Because it’s only sold in state monopoly shops, which have limited opening hours and where you need to be 20 to purchase (you can buy at bars and legally consume when you’re 18). Many people in southern Sweden just go to Denmark or Germany to stock up on booze lol.
Not in Denmark though
they have shops where you can buy alcohol. you have to be 18 to buy. usually people buy alcohol for other people and then paypal them
Wilhem is a prince and most of the other students at the school are either extremely wealthy or from noble birth. That's why Felice has a big social media following.
0% Elite
10% Skam, just because they have similar way of filming and making shows and movies. Just my opinion.
Song choices seemed quirt similar
Yeah, I'd say the only similarity with Elite is the fact that it's a private school for rich people and there's a few lower-income kids who attend it too. Other than that the two shows have nothing in common, imo. xD
Yeah, I kinda get offended when people compare it to Elite. Elite is shallow (it's just sex and crime all the time) and it's too forced (that teenagers kill people all the time and they kinda try to make it look cool).
I'd say this is 60% Skam. The natural way they portray teenagers, specially with the imperfect skin and actors who actually look like teenagers; how realistic the relationships are, like it would happen if this was real life; the almost absence of adults; the amount of improvised scenes; the cool, edgy soundtrack; the way everything is filmed.
Edit: also, I just now realized it, but they're both short seasons. Skam had 13 episodes with more or less 20 minutes each, while Young Royals have 6 episodes with 40/50 minutes each. They tell the story and that's it, they don't stretch it. It feels like a breeze and it makes us want more.
This show has been ALL over my timeline recently I NEED to watch it omg
watch it asap bestie
@@irinairina1 will do bestie
watch it rn it's so good
Hey bestie checking up if you've watched it yet
@@ejiroakamune6620 hey bestie nope not yet I got distracted 😂 I'll get to it tho!!
the most relatable thing he said this whole video was when he said he has a crush on simon
all of us can relate
It's funny that the actor who portrays August described his walk as "punchable". He's actually willing to have a real assessment of the character and call an asshole and asshole.
So where tf are you alex 😡, I need more young royals content. As a protest I'm not breathing until you post the next reaction 🌬
feels like this show is viral on social media but i never see it on netflix trending chart which is very weird.. cause i see this show all over social media
Netflix US is doing a terrible job promoting it. It has been top 10 in 32 countries and is now in a few countries. Among them is Russia, which is fantastic cause «promoting» lgbt content is illegal there.
@@Svtmme73 Yeah Im an American and I see this show viral all over social media and UA-cam! So much love!
But Young Royals isn't in the Top 10 on Netflix here. I don't understand what's going on. 😖😖😖😖
23:05 "royalty has approached you twice" 😂😂
PLEASE DO THE WHOLE SEASON PLEASE DELIVERY MAN I NEED THIS
Tbh I liked this because it felt different from the other teen dramas (Elite, Euphoria) where everyone is fit and is doing drugs and having sex everyday. So no, it’s nothing like Elite 😂
you definitively should react to all the episodes and update them on youtube, loved the commentary!
It's Grimm's "The Frog Prince" fairy tale reference.
*spoiler alert
It foreshadows what happens after they kiss which makes Willhelm a "proper" prince.
PLEASE DO THE WHOLE SEASON PLEASE
Simon/Omar has a good voice because he is actually a member of the boy group The Fooo.I think they disbanded, but yeah he has a background in singing.
I LITERALLY SCREAMED
i love this shoooow 😩😩😩😩😩
I'm obsessed with this tv show!
I love your reaction to Wilhem's smile when Simon is singing, because I realised (whilst watching the show) that Simon REALLY is his ray of sunlight. Especially in episode 1 and 2 he only smiles when Simon's around.
-
Fun fact: I binge watched the show yesterday evening!! I love your reactions to skam etc and hope you're gonna upload more reactions to young royals!!
Have a nice day ☀️
PLEASE REACT TO THE WHOLE SEASON!!! 😩😩😩
BESTIEE you have the captions for the dub on! the normal english without the CC is much better and more accurate! ❤️
I think not... But whatever 💜
@@LivsWings_ that’s literally what CC stands for; ’closed captions’, aka word for word written down. it makes no sense to have the audio and the cc in different languages since they then no longer match up. subtitles tho are translating, so they actually translate what they’re saying. the dub leaves out so many cute or funny parts, like when wille said simon’s head was glowing when hiding from august, etc. idk I just really dislike the dub+CC in comparison to the original lmao 😅
I'm sorry I think I absolutely misunderstood your comment🌚... You're absolutely right it is 100 times better😹💜
OOOOOH HAHAHA- Broo I was like “why tf they shittin’ on captions and why they likin’ dubs???” But I get it now, you mean he has the captions that go with the dub on instead of the captions that translate the original on
Also lmao you wrote this 2 months ago sorry-
“This august dude..I’m gonna knock you into September” IM DEADD 😭
YESS, I REALLY HOPE YOU DO THE REST OF THE SHOW🥲
plz watch them all i will watch every episode
I feel like the shot, where we see the globe with frog with the crown on, kinda symbolizes how Wilhelm feels: even if he is a prince he is suffocating, beacuse he cannot lives normally and he can only watch normal lives of his peers behind the glass.
another Skam reactor watching Young Royals. good decision, mate. drop episode 2 soon, thanks.
OH MY GOSH PLEASE POST MORE VIDEOS WITH YOUNG ROYALS
17:35 they have great chemistry!
i dont usually comment on youtube videos, but i just want to say.. your dedication for the headbutt is what i live for. thank you.
Agreed
simon and wilhelm are my actual kids ill protect them with my life.
we most certainly enjoyed this i know everyone speak for ourselves but everybody had to enjoy this reaction because young royals is such an amazing series and im excited for you to dive in more but can you also check out Elite season 4, its the craziest season yet
i get elite and skam vibes too but id argue this show is better :DD plz continue the commentaries
the final scene was improvised , urgh this show is so good
*The stress and anxiety this show gave me wow*
You need to do more young royals plz
Also the way is wilhelm acting so nervous is because he never felt sort of feelings towards any boy but simon definitely did cuz he's openly gay so it's all new to wille which is cute.
"this august dude im gonna knock into september" LMAOOO PLSSSS
omg yes i've waited for this!!!! This show has been my only personality trait for the past 2 weeks and i would very much love to see you cover the whole season here on youtube!!!
I think the biggest reason I like young royals so much is because none of the characters are made to be sexualised
Like a lot of shows have characters who are made for people to find them hot, especially lgbt shows made by the wrong people
I just can't get enough of this show,.. now I'm just gonna watch everyones reaction to it :')
Please keep going! It's such a short season it should be easy to get them out. I would love to see your reactions to every episode! It's soooo good!
dude im still waiting for you two drop the next episodes
PLEASE be a normal reactor for once and post all episodes here on UA-cam 😔
i’ve watched it three times and i expect to watch it again. it is SO GOOD. netflix needs to renew it i cannot handle another show that i love being cancelled by netflix.
edit: “idk there’s only six episodes so who knows what could go down” oh boy. get ready.
aaah shit been waiting for this one turn it up
You really need to react to the other episodes !!
That moment when Wille looks directly at the camera for the first time tho
"this august dude, I'm gonna knock you into September!" hahahahhaaha I've been laughing about it for the past 10 minutes hahaha omg
loved the video,can't wait for part 2
this was so fun to watch!! i need to see your reactions of the rest
11:34 I love how that part caught you off guard.
plz plz PLZ continue reacting to this on youtube!!!!!
Love your commentary! Really really hope that you'll react to the whole show!
omg i binged this whole thing in one night and loved it, can't wait for the next reaction!!
Came across your YR reaction videos (I know it was posted a while ago) and really enjoyed it, especially the vibes/ dynamics you noticed around Wilhelm and Simon. Lol, 'Royalty has approached you twice. Oh his chasing!'
Please continue with these reactions!!! Loved this!!!!❤️❤️
aaaah this was such a fun video really hope we can see more of your reactions on youtube! 🐸
Omg yes I’m obsessed with this show I can’t wait to watch it again with you
