  • After several suggestions that I should watch this show, I went head-to-head with the critically acclaimed Alice Oseman series and fell in love. I quickly became a fan of this coming-of-age tale, thanks in large part to the amazing performances of Joe Locke and Kit Connor, who played Charlie and Nick. These episodes are nothing short of perfect, and now I can't wait to read the graphic novels :)

    As an elder gay (60) I can tell you that while the show is geared to a younger audience, it speaks to any one of any age. Their story is so wholesome, yes that word gets used a lot describing the show, yet it's quite universal in its hopes for queers everywhere. Young or old (or ancient like me LOL) this show brings joy and a warmth that few queer shows have ever really been able to pull off in the past; though not for a lack of trying. I hear people in their 30's talk about how they wish they had this kind of show when they were younger, so imagine how it feels to have lived long enough to see it happen at 60. 45 years ago, I (15 yo uppity queer) and others, fought, bled and sadly died for queer rights and visibility; to see a show like this and Young Royals become hits across so many demographics is just so damn satisfying to see.
    Apologies for the pseudo rant, it's just that it's so great to see it all.

      Alright ancient one, let's no got unwrapping the rainbow Werther's Originals just yet. Something tells me that age is very much just a state of mind with you! :) And no worries on the rant whatsoever! Thank you for sharing. You're so right about how much has changed in just a couple of generations, and I've also noticed how much of a difference access to online resources has made as well (as we saw at the end of the 2nd episode of this show). Safer access to educate and connect with one another. Thanks so much for your comment, Jon- stay young, my friend!

      And it doesn't just resonate with LGBTQ people. As a disabled person, I can relate to the feeling of being different (or being perceived as such) and struggling to find a place to fit in. I'm high functioning and able to take care of myself but most of the disabled kids I knew growing up were not so I never really felt terribly disabled with them. Then I started school with kids who weren't disabled - and suddenly I was "the disabled kid." That was hard to get used to.

Nick and Charlie are officially an item in it. And there is a nasty Ben episode in it as well. It’s Osman’s first novel and she developed an interest in N&C that led her to showcase them as the MC of her graphic novel.

    The first time I watched Heartstopper, it didn't really look all that interesting to me, and I had no prior knowledge about the show or about the webcomic it was based on, but I was working on a paper and wanted something to watch in the background while I worked, so I turned it on and I was hooked by the end of the first episode. I have now rewatched it more times than I can count. It's so cute. And sweet and wholesome. I'm 46 years old, and nothing like this would even have remotely been possible when I was their age, but I'm so glad it's here now for young people today and future generations to watch. It's my new happy place.

    This show is the very definition of adorable. I am so glad today's school-age kids have something like this to watch. Tori stands out so strongly that you don't realize how little screen time she actually has, and Isaac is close to my heart because like him I always had my nose in a book. Side note: pay attention to the titles of his books (there's a list of them online somewhere if you miss them). So, sorry, David, if you made it this far you're stuck in Adorable for six more episodes...

    It has been renewed for season 2 (filming now) and season 3. It is based on a series of graphic novels that were a spin off on a YA novel about Tori, Charlie's sister. These novels currently end when they leave high school for college. The creator of the novels also wrote the series. Not sure if you picked up on Elle being trans and transferred from the all boys school to the girls school this semester. Yasmin, who plays Elle, is also in upcoming Dr. Who episodes.

    The cliché of spilling your books at an open locker in front of your crush-to-be is well-worn, but IMO it's pretty adorable that it doesn't play out in the usual way here.

So while I know kids still struggle today, the confidence they have is just completely heartwarming and inspiring to me.

    Heartstopper really is one of my favourite series on Netflix.
    The representation in it is one of the main reasons I started watching it.
    Because yes, it's about two boys liking each other, but there's so much more going on there.
    Alice seems to have tried to include all flavours of queerness in this series, and has made sure to be as inclusive with cast and crew as well.
    Not everyone is queer, and not everyone's ready to out themselves, but several cast members are out and open about it, and they were given the same chances as everyone else when they were cast.
    Also, the teenagers are played by actual teenagers, which you don't see often.
    As for the characters in the show: I have a weak spot for Darcy and Isaac.
    Darcy because she's so chaotic, and is such a great friend.
    Isaac because he's so subtle. He notices things, and he just won't say anything, because he's a good friend.
    Of course the other characters (except for Ben and Harrie) are great too, but these two stand out to me.
    Lastly: let's not forget that the message of Heartstopper is that we shouldn't assume someone's sexuality, shouldn't assume everyone is monosexual, and we shouldn't force people to come out when they're not ready.

    • @DavidvsFilm

    What I like about this show is how Nick's world just changed just because of Charlie. Charlie really messes Nick's life in a good way and his view of himeself. In his mind, Nick thought he was just a straight guy until he meets Charlie. Liked your reaction a lot.

    aannd another heartstopper reaction for me to follow ! this show is super cute and adorable. it has a very simple story and even tho it can feel a bit unrealistic/un-nuanced(?) I think it's nice to have something like that to feel inspired or just fuzzy on the inside, to let all that positive energy fill you in. I prefer the webcomics just bcs it touches on more deep issues so it feels more relatable to me and also gives the characters more layers, but I'm certain season 2 will be going in that direction. This year was good for queer media overall, Heartstopper and Our Flag Means Death are superpopular and critically acclaimed and are both getting a 2nd season, Dead End on Nefflix also has compliments raining all over it - also I think this is the 1st we've got a trans character as the protagonist in animation. Feeling happy and hopeful about all that.

And honestly when I went thru your channel I thought you already had watched it since it's really popular online but to my surprise I only saw a nice collection of horror movies, which I love and binged thru your reactions once more (along with the hunger games ones, too).
      Heartstopper and OFMD are actually quite complementary as one is very innocent, young, bright and "modern" whilst the other is comedic, silly and has a more mature cast of queer main characters that feel natural without using time-inappropriate language as is a sort of "period piece" (and queer identites weren't red as such back then).
      Anyways, can't wait for episodes 3 and 4!
