The amount of LGBTQIA+ representation in this show is such a gold standard. The coming out scene reminded me of how I came out to my parents last year. I came out to my parents the day before my 20th birthday and boy it was perfect. I can proudly boast to people that I have a mother like Sarah Nelson.
Same!! I very much relate to Nick being bisexual (and feeling the same about Pirates of the Caribbean lol) I’m very fortunate and lucky that my mom (and dad!) took it so well and were so understanding. So so happy that Heartstopper is out and able to help tons of people. Wish I’d seen this a couple years ago because I probably would’ve figured things out sooner in regard to my sexuality! Netflix’s Never Have I Ever is what motivated me to come out to my mom, we watched it together when one character came out to her mom and I felt ready and told her. I feel like I had my own Nick Nelson moment 2 years ago and it was very sweet. It’s so important to have representation and scenes like these because it can make the rest of us feel less alone. Can’t wait for season 2!! I’m hooked on Heartstopper❤️
It took my dad some time to accept it when I came out when I was 27 (I have a disability so I was still living with my parents at the time). He’s maybe not so much a Sarah Nelson because he asked me if it was just a phase I was going through because I was lonely. However, over the years he has changed his mindset a bit and he’s much more accepting of both me and my boyfriend (who I’ve been dating for 3 years). I feel lucky.
the fact that they had an lgbtq+ consultant and training on safe spaces and even language, included a charity, had a crew and cast who were actually part of the community, the amazing director, producer and of course, alice. everything about it was so perfectly curated and cared for, every single detail, it just resulted in a masterpiece. this means so much. looking forward to so much more of heartstopper
This is what art is all about. Effecting people, expressing yourself, influencing others. Heartstopper made me feel a way that no other form of media has done for me. It made me laugh, cry, scream and smile and made me feel like I am not alone in the world of discovering yourself, and that will be the same for a whole generation of LGBTQ+ youth. Thank you Heartstopper
As a 61-year-old gay old man, this series made me cry like a child. What a beautiful message for the new generations. It made me remember my secret high school crush. I am a hopeless romantic.
The fact that they really tried and made the effort to create this LGBTQ+ show with as many creatives, talents, and actors that were also part of the community speaks volumes. I'm ridiculously obsessed with this show and everyone involved in it.
I'm actually crying about it. Just knowing that somewhere out there queer people worked in an environment that was so open and understanding is life changing
I love that they introduce the show as "Alice Oseman's Heartstopper". Heartstopper is really Alice's masterpiece and I think that the fact they were so involved in the making of the show is a big part of the reason it is such a beautiful adaptation.
I don't know if Netflix realizes how lucky they got with Heartstopper! This is THE MOST SPECIAL SHOW!💗💜 The fact that so many ppl all around the world had similar reactions to it can tell u how this show was able to touch us in a way no other show or movie was able to ever. I still can't believe this was the first time a show made me feel like this. All the feelings n emotions n butterflies I used to love to feel came back but this time with optimism n hope of a happy ending or beginning. It finally allowed us to completely feel the emotions we used to repress. I said what everyone's saying- Why didn't it come out when I was in high school?! But I'm grateful for this show cuz it brought back (or gave us) the feelings we were robbed of years ago. I felt soooo good watching it! It took too long to happen but I'm grateful we got to feel this feeling cuz of Heartstopper.😌💗💜❤️💛 I'm so happy for the que er kids who'll get to see this n know that it's okay to dream about love n they deserve to be loved n be happy. Heartstopper is providing the optimism, that I know i didn't have when i was in school, to those kids. This show is always going to have a special place in my heart.💗💜
This is what representation is about. This means a lot to me as a black person to see elle, and tara and just the overall representation. I love every single moment of this series. The way they incorporated from the cast to the production was perfect. They did an amazing and beautiful Job. I hope we get a second season.
"If you don't see that growing up, you don't think you can have it." Those words resonated with me so much, and so very true. Thank you Heartstopper, for allowing me to believe in something different.
Omg exactly! The moment he said that, I saved the video to look back on and use as a reference for explaining to someone who doesn't understand why positive representation for our community matters so much ❤️
The transition of feeling so alone whist being apart of quite a few minorities, and suddenly seeing everything you've experienced and fought to explain laid out for others to learn and for you to relate is the best feeling in the whole world.
alice oseman and the whole team have my entire heart. i'm 20 and even if that's not a huge difference from teen years, this sort of representation lacked when i was growing up. just so thankful for this story to be brought to life in such a beautiful way. season 2, i can't wait for you...
The show is so authentic, I often feel like I'm invading people's privacy & I blush! Kit is Nick........Joe is Char.....Yasmin is Elie.....Sabation is Ben...Corinna is Tara Olivia is Nicks Mom & should be EVERYONES MOM! Kizzy is Darcy...William is Tao..+ We are Witness to the beginning of a New & Better World. Thank To HEARTSTOPPER! Et al
2:53 this part had me sobbing. I can't believe how far we've come in positive queer representation and I just feel so grateful to have a show like heartstopper to be my sense of hope and the idea of it all being okay. This is something I won't ever forget :')
This show genuinely means the world to me. As a young bisexual person I relate to Nick so much, and this show has helped me feel more comfortable in my identity and who I am as a person. I’ve never felt represented in the way I felt watching heartstopper for the first time, they truly take the time to show what it can be like figuring out your sexuality and coming to terms with that and I think that’s pretty special, let’s hope for many more seasons down the line!
"i didnt have the chance to see it, two boys having fun at school and showing it was a possibility. if u cant see that growing up, you'd think u wouldnt havent" i'm 22 years old, now at the university, I would have loved to have a show like this that shows other realities, I enjoyed it now, I cried and loved it, thanks to you for this
This series has set our standard that love is not something we should beg. Love is something we deserved 💕 I will never be so grateful to all of the people who made this show possible. Thanks for giving us what representation in media really is. Thank you for showing us that we can see ourselves in a tv show. Thank you for abolishing stereotypes of how queer community is sometimes presented 💕 You guys deserved all the great things to come.
Them saying the importance of showing that two gay kids can grow up simply having a good time in media shows all the kids watching they can have that, is so amazing! Growing up with tv and movies always showing the queer characters as comedic relief or single, or drowned in trauma and tragedy made it so difficult to accept being queer and made it easy to accept any kind of love we got because we truly were never told or shown we deserved more or better. This show makes me cry so much realizing the young generations don't have to go through that and hopefully this inspires more tv and movies of just happy sweet fun queer stories full of diversity and representation.... thank you everyone for this amazing show!!
No doubts this is THE BEST LGBTQ show ever made, netflix take notes, if you want to keep opening gates for our community, THIS is exactly what we want, need and deserve! Small details really matter, I'm so happy Heartstopper came to life to help a lot of people :') Keep more and more seasons coming! ♥︎
HEARTSTOPPER, is so authentic, I often feel like I'm invading people's privacy & I blush! Kit is Nick........Joe is Char.....Yasmin is Elie.....Sabation is Ben.. Olivia is Nicks Mom & should be EVERYONES MOM! .....William is Tao...+++ We are Witness to The beginning of a New & Better World.Thanks HEARTSTOPPER!
I can’t express or even begin to describe how much this show affected me and the multiple amount of emotions felt throughout broke my heart more then it warranted💔 watched this 23 times since it’s release on Netflix last month and still continue to watch it now more so then ever🍂💙 Please please please renew for season 2 🍂🍂 Protect these shining stars at all cost ❤️
Hello, I don’t know if I’m right to say this, and I know that I’m definitely not entitled. Sorry if you feel hurt by what follows. This show can be heart-breaking for some people and for many reasons. I think that although it is a good medicine, you shouldn’t take to much of it. I don’t know how your time schedule works, but I’m assuming that you watch the show only to escape reality at this point ? If it is the case, I hope that you’ll find inner peace. If you feel sad or hurt by something in link to the show, and if it is really distracting you, I suggest you to talk about it to someone
@@sandwich5697 very smart words. as a 14 yr old lgbt member i had to forcibly stop myself from watching the show 1. bc its not that realistic and is like an unhealthy escape 2. it just gets kinda depressing after awhile for myself. ik this sounds insane but my anorexia got worse after watching the show (and soon beginning the more serious comics) bc i feel like i could only have what charlie has if i relate to him more. so i feel like the show sets to high hopes for myself and gets me to hurt myself bc i think i can reach those goals. ik that was kinda a vent but this show brought so many positives and negatives to me ive tried to steer myself away from it. too good to be true i guess so. :(:
@@crispyburgas7163 I know what you are referring to...my partner won't watch it all. He says it doesn't represent what most LGTQ+ young adults go thru. For me it is seriously triggering in that my high school years were tortuous. They were boxed away in my mind, to not be remembered.
The fact that I have already seen Heartstopper six times is not different from the reaction that this production has had in the whole queer community, but if I tell you that I am in Bogota; and that I am 67 y.o. This shows that it has affected far beyond the original target. I wish I had something remotely like this when I was growing up. In my case, it was at the movies that I realized I was gay in 1968 attending a function of Camelot when I fell head over hills with Franco Nero and his character, something that I keep as a secret for like ten more years, that is why I liked that scene where Nick and his mother are choosing a movie to see and Nick pass his eyes so slowly from Keira to Orlando, that scene that nobody has commented so far made me cry like for the thousand times when I first saw the series. Thank you to Netflix and everybody in the production; The Director, the author, the set designers, the creators of the doodles, the music, and the cast, especially to Kit and Joe.
I am 59 and have watched the series five times myself. I was surprised (and delighted) by how the show has touched my heart. Glad to see others of my generation feel the same.
This genuinely made me cry. I don’t usually cry when I’m talking abt being in the closet as a bisexual girl surrounded by homophobic people but watching this show and this video genuinely made me understand how much pain and how much sadness I hold in me. I teared up listening how and why they made this show. It really makes me happy when there’s a good lgbtq representation being shown to the public. This show made me feel even more proud than I was to be bisexual. Thank u Alice, Heartstopper team and the cast is also wonderful. Thank u all, u have no idea how much impact u have on this and even younger generations. Thank u so much. I’m definitely closer to coming out to my parents. Thank u!
You don't have to come out until you are ready! And only come out if it is safe (physically, financially) for you to do so. I am sending you virtual hugs (if you want them) and rooting for you on your coming-out journey. I lost some family members when I came out, but I have the joy of knowing that the ones who are still in my life love me for who I really am, and that makes everything worth it.
Yo istg if they don’t renew this for another season I’ll personally sue netflix for causing emotional damage. THATS HOW MUCH I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SHOW.
What I loved most about this adaptation is that every depiction of love was celebrated with joy, and I think that’s so so important for kids today to see. As much as we need to educate everyone about the hardships and realities the lgbtq+ community faces, it’s also important to show that at the end of the day, love is love, we all deserve it, and every form of it needs to be respected, appreciated, and celebrated. Thank you to everyone who worked so tirelessly on this, but especially to Alice Oseman for the privilege of letting us be part of Nick and Charlie’s journey. I can’t wait for more
This was truly *the most accurate* book to screen adaptation I've seen in my entire life! They literally took exact dialogue from the book and inputted nearly all of it into the show, which you rarely ever see. Netflix is definitely renewing this for a 2nd season - they're just teasing us so that when the news is finally released, we rejoice that much more lol!!
Alice Oseman said that there were certain scenes she loved in the books but wouldn't fit in the show story-wise, so she still took the dialogues from there and used them elsewhere
Heartstopper is life changing. It will help to heal the trauma of millions. It will also help people who are questioning their sexuality or gender and help them to find themselves. Thank you to everyone involved! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
i lowkey cried when thinking just how amazingly open-minded people were involved in the production, we all focus on the cast, but its not only the cast, its so many people involved in the process that have made heartstopper such a relatable and beautiful coming-of-age show
I’m just happy that the LGBTQ+ representation in this production is beyond the casting, but the whole team itself and even hiring a LGBTQ+ consultant!! That’s why this feels very authentic and the storytelling was very natural❤️❤️ pls renew this series😭
i’m actually crying rn. the way that this show is so authentically queer. from the actors themselves to the camera crew, the whole crew. it makes me so happy to see.
Heartstopper is definitely one of the most beautiful visual experiences I have been able to appreciate in my life and as much as I keep repeating to watch the whole series I can't get enough of it, every scene is satisfying, beautiful and you can feel that connection with each character and it makes you love them instantly ❤️
I'm an out & proud 55 year old queer cisman, who grew up in a strict, homophobic Mormon family in Los Angeles and was in high school during the 80s AIDS epidemic. Just like that film's LGBTQ consultant, I too was robbed of the experience of seeing LGBTQ love stories. I was sent to conversion therapy and programs where they taught us how to be straight... Play sports, ask out girls, etc. We were told that if we married a woman we'd be "cured". The whole thing was so abusive, that I suffered years of depression and was often suicidal. On top of that, my entire family shunned me, for 20 years now. They refuse to reconcile, but I don't want them back... I've found a family of friends who love me for me. ❤️ Because of all that trauma, his show has meant SO MUCH to me! I've watched it over & over & it feels so right. I still cry every time... Hell, I even cry just thinking about scenes from it! It helps me MOURN what I've lost & never had, but it's incredible beauty, art & love ALSO helps me HEAL with every viewing. It gives me hope for LGBTQ youth & also the possibility that I'll find my own Nick or Charlie. It will ALWAYS be a favorite program, and I'm SO grateful for Alice, Euros, Kit, Joe, Olivia and ALL the rest of the outstanding cast, dedicated crew & Netflix for bringing me something I never knew I needed, but has meant SO MUCH to me! (and seriously, Kit Connor deserves an Emmy!) Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 ♥️💚💙💛💜
Thank you for sharing your story, it made me tear up!! I feel so lucky to be 15 and queer in this generation, because even though I still get bullied at school some, at least I can have the representation in shows such as heartstopper. So glad heartstopper is giving you comfort, and that you have found YOUR REAL family.
@@willowmarwood4955 yes it used to be a LOT worse. I'm glad it's easier now. Not perfect, b/c there's still people like Harry. But I'm sooooo glad it's easier for LGBTQ youth.
I've seen heartstopper five times in the last week, and I'm confident that I'll keep watching it whenever I have free time. This was the first series about which I became hooked, which is unusual for me because I've never preferred series' to movies. For the past 15 years, I've assumed I'm straight, but watching Heartstopper has me torn about my sexuality, especially because of Nick Nelson; I'm not sure if I want to be friends with him, be with him, or BE HIM. Something about Nick's coming out scene makes me feel strangely relieved, as if I completely relate to him questioning if he's bi. I'm not sure why I'm venting in a public comment section, but I'm grateful for this series, and who knows, maybe in a few years I'll realize that I really am bi. Enough with the drama, I'm hoping for a Season 2, I've already finished the webtoon in one sitting and listened to Alice Oseman's other works!
that's why this show was so good because they have LGBT people talking and showing the LGBT situation from the viewpoint of someone that pass through that situation, therefore, we all relate with the characters and their stories
I feel so privilege to watch Heartstopper! Imagine what would happen to me in my younger self seeing this show and to embrace as well as accepting myself. Thank you Heartstopper crew and actors who give justice to our representation. A lot of queer kids will be save if they see this show
i love this show so much, nick especially really stood out for me as a bisexual person who has known about my sexuality since elementary school, i never had bi representation like this and it made me so emotional to see his journey in such a healthy and accepting way. props to all the cast and crew for bringing to life such a beautiful story.
As much as we love the cast and Alice we really need to appreciate the other people behind this show for giving us one of the best series for the LGBTQ+ community. .
When even the making of gives you visceral emotional response….you know you’ve seen something truly special. Thank you for introducing me to the world of Heartstopper and Alice Oseman’s works.
Watching this made me so emotional. A show about LGBTQ+ people made by LGBTQ+ people is one of Netlix's highest rated shows ever. It's very bittersweet for me because being a 31 year old gay man, I didn't have this kind of representation on-screen growing up. To see such a positive, uplifting show about two boys falling in love, and one coming to terms with his sexuality makes me so happy that young LGBTQ+ people are starting to get more and more representation. Such a wonderful show.
Heartstopper has become my safe, happy place. You can see how much love it got from the people involved in it. Please renew it for a second season, the world needs more Heartstopper and we deserve the representation and the beauty of it. ❤
Is wonderful, They made a wonderful story, an incredible adaptation, the whole team worked excellently, without a doubt you can see how perfect everything was.
Reading all the comments on here made me tear up, it shows how more show with representation is needed and wanted. I hope to see more of these shows not only on Netflix but more mainstream.
EU NÃO ACREDITO QUE EU TO CHORANDO COM ISSO! Essa serie é tão importante pra mim, as HQs são tão importantes... eu só posso agradecer a Alice Oseman e a Netflix por trazer uma historia tão positiva e genuína para nossas vidas. Muito obrigado muito obrigado muito obrigado!!!
I just love how deep they went. While watching Heartstopper, I felt like I was represented and even more important the vibe the show had made me feel like I was in a safe space. I read the books before the show came out, and while reading it I was always so excited and loved each part of them, and with the show I felt the same excitement. The amount of detail that the show has, just make me feel so good. Loved the show🥺💖🌈
I need Netflix to renew till the final season...coz the actors grow fast and I'm sure their fame will made their schedule fully booked in the foreseeable future. if netflix wanted to keep the hype, they can just launch each season every two/three months. PLS stop making trash movies and shows like 365 days, invest the money wisely!!
The reason why I love heartstopper so much is because I can truly relate to their story (especially Nick's side), this show really gave me joy and hope into discovering myself more and being free to who I truly am. I hope this gets a season 2 bec I've read Alice's books, volumes 4 & 5, and it tackles issues people can relate to
The production of this show is phenomenal. I didn't expect so many members of the cast to be LGBTQ+ or for them to have a consultant, but I'm so glad they did it the way they did. It means a lot. :)
heartstopper makes me want to raise my standards on lgbtq+ representation in media. i don't know if i can ever excuse less ever again to be honest. and i don't think that's a bad thing.
They did an incredible job, from the actors, producers, writers, directors and even Alice herself. I am so surprised. Heartstopper is one of the best Netflix adaptations by far, congratulations everyone, you did a great job.
This series is literally a piece of art. How they make every member of the LGBTQ+ community feel valid, important and show it as naturally as it should be, I'm happy to grow up with a heartstopper.
HEARTSTOPPER, is so authentic, I often feel like I'm invading people's privacy & I blush! Kit is Nick........Joe is Char.....Yasmin is Elie.....Sabation is Ben...Corinna is Tara Olivia is Nicks Mom & should be EVERYONES MOM! Kizzy is Darcy.....William is Tao...+++ We are Witness to The beginning of a New & Better World.Thanks to HEARTSTOPPER!
This show has honestly changed my life, and I have so much thanks to give to Alice Oseman and the other people who made this show possible. The cast and the characters make me feel so accepted and content, and honestly sometimes the only reason I get out of bed in the morning. I am Bisexual, and seeing Bi and other LGBTQ representation in a show for a young audience is an amazing things that not a lot of people have the luck to experience. It really has helped me through such hard and tough times, and the characters and plot is just beautiful. A million thanks to Alice and everyone else involved in making this show possible ❤
It's really refreshing watching something related to the LGBTQI+ community that is not all about trauma, hurt and suffering homophobia. It's a beautiful story, soft and sweet to watch.
The amount of LGBTQIA+ representation in this show is such a gold standard. The coming out scene reminded me of how I came out to my parents last year. I came out to my parents the day before my 20th birthday and boy it was perfect. I can proudly boast to people that I have a mother like Sarah Nelson.

I’m very fortunate and lucky that my mom (and dad!) took it so well and were so understanding. So so happy that Heartstopper is out and able to help tons of people. Wish I’d seen this a couple years ago because I probably would’ve figured things out sooner in regard to my sexuality!
Netflix’s Never Have I Ever is what motivated me to come out to my mom, we watched it together when one character came out to her mom and I felt ready and told her. I feel like I had my own Nick Nelson moment 2 years ago and it was very sweet.
It’s so important to have representation and scenes like these because it can make the rest of us feel less alone.
Can’t wait for season 2!! I’m hooked on Heartstopper❤️

This show makes me cry so much realizing the young generations don't have to go through that and hopefully this inspires more tv and movies of just happy sweet fun queer stories full of diversity and representation.... thank you everyone for this amazing show!!
No doubts this is THE BEST LGBTQ show ever made, netflix take notes, if you want to keep opening gates for our community, THIS is exactly what we want, need and deserve!
Small details really matter, I'm so happy Heartstopper came to life to help a lot of people :')
Keep more and more seasons coming! ♥︎
PLEASE DON'T STOP PUTTING OUT HEARTSTOPPER CONTENT! Living for every piece of content!!
HEARTSTOPPER, is so authentic, I often feel like I'm invading people's privacy & I blush! Kit is Nick........Joe is Char.....Yasmin is Elie.....Sabation is Ben..
Olivia is Nicks Mom & should be EVERYONES MOM! .....William is Tao...+++ We are Witness to The beginning of a New & Better World.Thanks HEARTSTOPPER!
I can’t express or even begin to describe how much this show affected me and the multiple amount of emotions felt throughout broke my heart more then it warranted💔
watched this 23 times since it’s release on Netflix last month and still continue to watch it now more so then ever🍂💙
Please please please renew for season 2 🍂🍂
Protect these shining stars at all cost ❤️
Hello, I don’t know if I’m right to say this, and I know that I’m definitely not entitled. Sorry if you feel hurt by what follows.
This show can be heart-breaking for some people and for many reasons. I think that although it is a good medicine, you shouldn’t take to much of it. I don’t know how your time schedule works, but I’m assuming that you watch the show only to escape reality at this point ? If it is the case, I hope that you’ll find inner peace. If you feel sad or hurt by something in link to the show, and if it is really distracting you, I suggest you to talk about it to someone
@@sandwich5697 very smart words. as a 14 yr old lgbt member i had to forcibly stop myself from watching the show 1. bc its not that realistic and is like an unhealthy escape 2. it just gets kinda depressing after awhile for myself. ik this sounds insane but my anorexia got worse after watching the show (and soon beginning the more serious comics) bc i feel like i could only have what charlie has if i relate to him more. so i feel like the show sets to high hopes for myself and gets me to hurt myself bc i think i can reach those goals. ik that was kinda a vent but this show brought so many positives and negatives to me ive tried to steer myself away from it. too good to be true i guess so. :(:
@@crispyburgas7163 I know what you are referring to...my partner won't watch it all. He says it doesn't represent what most LGTQ+ young adults go thru. For me it is seriously triggering in that my high school years were tortuous. They were boxed away in my mind, to not be remembered.
my new comfort show. so greatful for netflix, for making it a show. and especially alice, for all the hardwork she put in.
Ahhhh the cast is absolutely adorable!! When they all do short shots at 0:32, you can see how similar they are to their characters :))
The fact that I have already seen Heartstopper six times is not different from the reaction that this production has had in the whole queer community, but if I tell you that I am in Bogota; and that I am 67 y.o. This shows that it has affected far beyond the original target. I wish I had something remotely like this when I was growing up. In my case, it was at the movies that I realized I was gay in 1968 attending a function of Camelot when I fell head over hills with Franco Nero and his character, something that I keep as a secret for like ten more years, that is why I liked that scene where Nick and his mother are choosing a movie to see and Nick pass his eyes so slowly from Keira to Orlando, that scene that nobody has commented so far made me cry like for the thousand times when I first saw the series. Thank you to Netflix and everybody in the production; The Director, the author, the set designers, the creators of the doodles, the music, and the cast, especially to Kit and Joe.
I am 59 and have watched the series five times myself. I was surprised (and delighted) by how the show has touched my heart. Glad to see others of my generation feel the same.
This genuinely made me cry. I don’t usually cry when I’m talking abt being in the closet as a bisexual girl surrounded by homophobic people but watching this show and this video genuinely made me understand how much pain and how much sadness I hold in me. I teared up listening how and why they made this show. It really makes me happy when there’s a good lgbtq representation being shown to the public. This show made me feel even more proud than I was to be bisexual. Thank u Alice, Heartstopper team and the cast is also wonderful. Thank u all, u have no idea how much impact u have on this and even younger generations. Thank u so much. I’m definitely closer to coming out to my parents. Thank u!
Stay strong and keep shining! Your day is coming.
You don't have to come out until you are ready! And only come out if it is safe (physically, financially) for you to do so. I am sending you virtual hugs (if you want them) and rooting for you on your coming-out journey. I lost some family members when I came out, but I have the joy of knowing that the ones who are still in my life love me for who I really am, and that makes everything worth it.
Yo istg if they don’t renew this for another season I’ll personally sue netflix for causing emotional damage. THATS HOW MUCH I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SHOW.
What I loved most about this adaptation is that every depiction of love was celebrated with joy, and I think that’s so so important for kids today to see. As much as we need to educate everyone about the hardships and realities the lgbtq+ community faces, it’s also important to show that at the end of the day, love is love, we all deserve it, and every form of it needs to be respected, appreciated, and celebrated. Thank you to everyone who worked so tirelessly on this, but especially to Alice Oseman for the privilege of letting us be part of Nick and Charlie’s journey. I can’t wait for more
I’ve never felt more seen than I have with Heartstopper. Thank you, Alice 🍂
This was truly *the most accurate* book to screen adaptation I've seen in my entire life! They literally took exact dialogue from the book and inputted nearly all of it into the show, which you rarely ever see. Netflix is definitely renewing this for a 2nd season - they're just teasing us so that when the news is finally released, we rejoice that much more lol!!
Alice Oseman said that there were certain scenes she loved in the books but wouldn't fit in the show story-wise, so she still took the dialogues from there and used them elsewhere
Heartstopper is life changing. It will help to heal the trauma of millions. It will also help people who are questioning their sexuality or gender and help them to find themselves. Thank you to everyone involved! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
i lowkey cried when thinking just how amazingly open-minded people were involved in the production, we all focus on the cast, but its not only the cast, its so many people involved in the process that have made heartstopper such a relatable and beautiful coming-of-age show
I’m just happy that the LGBTQ+ representation in this production is beyond the casting, but the whole team itself and even hiring a LGBTQ+ consultant!! That’s why this feels very authentic and the storytelling was very natural❤️❤️ pls renew this series😭
i’m actually crying rn. the way that this show is so authentically queer. from the actors themselves to the camera crew, the whole crew. it makes me so happy to see.
Please please PLEASE make a Season 2!!!!
im literally in love with this show. like i've watched the entire season almost every day for the past week. i am NOT okay
Its like become a tradition to watch it everyday ❤️
Same!
Why are we like this? 💖
Samesies. But also maybe I have never been more okay. 😊
Heartstopper is definitely one of the most beautiful visual experiences I have been able to appreciate in my life and as much as I keep repeating to watch the whole series I can't get enough of it, every scene is satisfying, beautiful and you can feel that connection with each character and it makes you love them instantly ❤️
I'm an out & proud 55 year old queer cisman, who grew up in a strict, homophobic Mormon family in Los Angeles and was in high school during the 80s AIDS epidemic. Just like that film's LGBTQ consultant, I too was robbed of the experience of seeing LGBTQ love stories. I was sent to conversion therapy and programs where they taught us how to be straight... Play sports, ask out girls, etc.
We were told that if we married a woman we'd be "cured". The whole thing was so abusive, that I suffered years of depression and was often suicidal. On top of that, my entire family shunned me, for 20 years now. They refuse to reconcile, but I don't want them back... I've found a family of friends who love me for me. ❤️
Because of all that trauma, his show has meant SO MUCH to me! I've watched it over & over & it feels so right. I still cry every time... Hell, I even cry just thinking about scenes from it! It helps me MOURN what I've lost & never had, but it's incredible beauty, art & love ALSO helps me HEAL with every viewing. It gives me hope for LGBTQ youth & also the possibility that I'll find my own Nick or Charlie.
It will ALWAYS be a favorite program, and I'm SO grateful for Alice, Euros, Kit, Joe, Olivia and ALL the rest of the outstanding cast, dedicated crew & Netflix for bringing me something I never knew I needed, but has meant SO MUCH to me! (and seriously, Kit Connor deserves an Emmy!) Thank you, thank you, thank you!
🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 ♥️💚💙💛💜
thank you for sharing this with us
@@erinh9267 happy to! 🙂
Thank you for sharing your story, it made me tear up!! I feel so lucky to be 15 and queer in this generation, because even though I still get bullied at school some, at least I can have the representation in shows such as heartstopper. So glad heartstopper is giving you comfort, and that you have found YOUR REAL family.
@@willowmarwood4955 yes it used to be a LOT worse. I'm glad it's easier now. Not perfect, b/c there's still people like Harry. But I'm sooooo glad it's easier for LGBTQ youth.
I've seen heartstopper five times in the last week, and I'm confident that I'll keep watching it whenever I have free time. This was the first series about which I
became hooked, which is unusual for me
because I've never preferred series' to movies.
For the past 15 years, I've assumed I'm
straight, but watching Heartstopper has me torn about my sexuality, especially
because of Nick Nelson; I'm not sure if I want to be friends with him, be with him, or BE HIM. Something about Nick's
coming out scene makes me feel
strangely relieved, as if I completely
relate to him questioning if he's bi.
I'm not sure why I'm venting in a public comment section, but I'm grateful for this series, and who knows, maybe in a few years I'll realize that I really am bi. Enough with the drama, I'm hoping for a Season 2, I've already finished the webtoon in one sitting and listened to Alice Oseman's other works!
Oh boy, i promissed myself i would stop crying for heartstopper but this made so emotional i just couldnt.
that's why this show was so good because they have LGBT people talking and showing the LGBT situation from the viewpoint of someone that pass through that situation, therefore, we all relate with the characters and their stories
Plus the fact that it was written, directed and acted by extraordinarily talented people...
I feel so privilege to watch Heartstopper! Imagine what would happen to me in my younger self seeing this show and to embrace as well as accepting myself. Thank you Heartstopper crew and actors who give justice to our representation. A lot of queer kids will be save if they see this show
2:26 THE CUTEST THING I'VE SEEN TODAY
Crying 😭 I miss these gorgeous people so much! 🥺🥰
So impressed that even though they had an LGBTQ+ director and staff, they still went out of their way to hire a knowledgeable LGBTQ+ consultant
i love this show so much, nick especially really stood out for me as a bisexual person who has known about my sexuality since elementary school, i never had bi representation like this and it made me so emotional to see his journey in such a healthy and accepting way. props to all the cast and crew for bringing to life such a beautiful story.
Great team behind the camera really brought this show to life!
As much as we love the cast and Alice we really need to appreciate the other people behind this show for giving us one of the best series for the LGBTQ+ community. .
When even the making of gives you visceral emotional response….you know you’ve seen something truly special. Thank you for introducing me to the world of Heartstopper and Alice Oseman’s works.
No wonder anyone can love this show. It’s created with love. As a romantic I enjoyed this so much! Can’t wait for season two.
Watching this made me so emotional. A show about LGBTQ+ people made by LGBTQ+ people is one of Netlix's highest rated shows ever. It's very bittersweet for me because being a 31 year old gay man, I didn't have this kind of representation on-screen growing up. To see such a positive, uplifting show about two boys falling in love, and one coming to terms with his sexuality makes me so happy that young LGBTQ+ people are starting to get more and more representation. Such a wonderful show.
what a delight of series, I'm extremely passionate and obsessed.
YES
Heartstopper has become my safe, happy place.
You can see how much love it got from the people involved in it.
Please renew it for a second season, the world needs more Heartstopper and we deserve the representation and the beauty of it. ❤
Is wonderful, They made a wonderful story, an incredible adaptation, the whole team worked excellently, without a doubt you can see how perfect everything was.
Reading all the comments on here made me tear up, it shows how more show with representation is needed and wanted. I hope to see more of these shows not only on Netflix but more mainstream.
EU NÃO ACREDITO QUE EU TO CHORANDO COM ISSO!
Essa serie é tão importante pra mim, as HQs são tão importantes... eu só posso agradecer a Alice Oseman e a Netflix por trazer uma historia tão positiva e genuína para nossas vidas. Muito obrigado muito obrigado muito obrigado!!!
I just love how deep they went. While watching Heartstopper, I felt like I was represented and even more important the vibe the show had made me feel like I was in a safe space. I read the books before the show came out, and while reading it I was always so excited and loved each part of them, and with the show I felt the same excitement. The amount of detail that the show has, just make me feel so good. Loved the show🥺💖🌈
I need season 2!!!
If this doesn't get a second (and third and fourth) season we riot
Will forever be my favorite show, it brings me so much inner joy and peace. Thank you everyone!
I need Netflix to renew till the final season...coz the actors grow fast and I'm sure their fame will made their schedule fully booked in the foreseeable future. if netflix wanted to keep the hype, they can just launch each season every two/three months. PLS stop making trash movies and shows like 365 days, invest the money wisely!!
The reason why I love heartstopper so much is because I can truly relate to their story (especially Nick's side), this show really gave me joy and hope into discovering myself more and being free to who I truly am. I hope this gets a season 2 bec I've read Alice's books, volumes 4 & 5, and it tackles issues people can relate to
you really really can see how many queer people worked on that project. It just feels so so authentic while watching :)
The production of this show is phenomenal. I didn't expect so many members of the cast to be LGBTQ+ or for them to have a consultant, but I'm so glad they did it the way they did. It means a lot. :)
I mean if I could get paid to rewatch it and feel emotional each time... I'd at least have £100k already
WOULD LOVE TO THANK EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON THE SHOW, IT'S DEFINITELY AN AMAZING SHOW!! I TOTALLY LOVE THIS SHOW AND THE BOOKS!! ❤❤❤❤
heartstopper makes me want to raise my standards on lgbtq+ representation in media. i don't know if i can ever excuse less ever again to be honest. and i don't think that's a bad thing.
literally living for these
This was way too short. I’d watch 8 episodes of Making of Heartstopper!
We need a season 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and moreeeeeeeeeee
I don't think I've ever cried during a making of before. Thank you
They did an incredible job, from the actors, producers, writers, directors and even Alice herself. I am so surprised. Heartstopper is one of the best Netflix adaptations by far, congratulations everyone, you did a great job.
I really like this serie, I am spanish so I don't know write, but this serie, it's the best :D
it was so heartwarming to see the director say he specifically tried to hire LGBTQ people for all aspects of the making of the show
❤🧡💛💚💙💜
This show is seriously a GODSEND ❤🏳🌈😭
This series is literally a piece of art. How they make every member of the LGBTQ+ community feel valid, important and show it as naturally as it should be, I'm happy to grow up with a heartstopper.
This Show Help me Say to my friends that im Bisexual
Netflix needs to make more series like this, more preferably a second season of Heartstopper😭
omg im crying again
HEARTSTOPPER, is so authentic, I often feel like I'm invading people's privacy & I blush!
Kit is Nick........Joe is Char.....Yasmin is Elie.....Sabation is Ben...Corinna is Tara
Olivia is Nicks Mom & should be EVERYONES MOM! Kizzy is Darcy.....William is Tao...+++ We are Witness to The beginning of a New & Better World.Thanks to HEARTSTOPPER!
Probably the best lgbt representation in a show I’ve ever seen
Magical cast and crew. Thank you for creating the mesmerising series that brings joy and colours to so many people around the world. 🌈💕🇦🇺🇹🇼
I swear to god Netflix if you don’t renew this show-
This show is just amazing in like, every way. I can’t wait to see what the future holds 💗🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This show has honestly changed my life, and I have so much thanks to give to Alice Oseman and the other people who made this show possible. The cast and the characters make me feel so accepted and content, and honestly sometimes the only reason I get out of bed in the morning. I am Bisexual, and seeing Bi and other LGBTQ representation in a show for a young audience is an amazing things that not a lot of people have the luck to experience. It really has helped me through such hard and tough times, and the characters and plot is just beautiful. A million thanks to Alice and everyone else involved in making this show possible ❤
thank u alice for this beautiful show and thank u to the cast and crew as well for making it come to life
there is nothing else to say.. I LOVE THIS SHOW ❤️❤️ I’m so obsessed 😍
Please make this a season 2 🍂🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
I am crying watching this !! 🥺🥺 Thank you so much for giving us the best LGBTQIA+ series ever !
I tear up everytime I'm reminded what this show is representing. Such a beautiful show.
This is story is so sweet and sometimes feels surreal, this is what a wanted when I was a teen. Thank you for doing this, we need season two :D
Why must all the videos be less than 4 minutes. Give us an hour long video covering behind the scenes and bloopers please.
I.NEED.A.SEASON.2
It's really refreshing watching something related to the LGBTQI+ community that is not all about trauma, hurt and suffering homophobia. It's a beautiful story, soft and sweet to watch.
