Hearing that he was afraid of the aids crisis makes him so amazing for later playing Whizzer in Falsettos
"we really like you, but we found someone who looks like you and is straight"
wow...
Take a shot every time Andrew mentions Omaha in an interview
nobody do that plz
Instructions too clear.
Got alcohol poisioning.
Take a shot every time he inserts an unnecessary “like” into a sentence.
0:26 Why does Andrew's dad look like Josh Gad?
I love Andrew. His soul, his acting, his humor, his honesty
His hair!
TELL ME WHO DISLIKED THIS. I WILL FIGHT THEM. THIS VIDEO IS GORGEOUS AND BEAUTIFUL. IT GIVES ME SO MUCH HOPE. THANK YOU ANDREW.
melanie g the homophobes
I disliked it let's go bitch.
I don't like privledged victim status pieces.
How is he 40???
PoppingMagic nah he's almost 40 tho
Whizy he was 1 in 1978. He’s 40
i breathe musicals *he is living proof god has favorites*
He has the cutest face ever
other than anthony rosenthal but yes
Every single video of It Got Better brings me to tears. I am so touched by the similar experience that I have as a gay guy with them. This is beyond! Love love love.

I didn't know this channel or this video or series existed but just scrolling through Andrew rannells videos I clicked and now I'm crying
This video is great, and I'm genuinely not trying to take away from it, but it's so strange to see Andrew Rannels with a beard
INNIT
My same reaction when I watched the Tony's for the first time . . . I hope I can achieve that dream.
Singit500 Go for it!!!
I probably wouldnt of come out until I was an adult if it wasn't for the new normal. Me being this small town kid surrounded by far right people being gay wasnt an option for me so seeing these characters was like wow Im the only one maybe this is something I shouldn't have to hide. I think I was 13 when I saw it and it made me accept myself ( i still didn't come out till years later ). Rannells is a true inspiration
Thank you, Andrew Rannells. As a gay kid, you really have inspired me to be who I am and inspired me to pursue acting. You are my role model, and strive to be like you.
Hmmmm. Im from omaha, nebraska and im gay.
Sam Ortner you are Andrew Rannels
Sam Ortner Rannells*
Same
the fact that he's much more happy with himself now is amazing i love him
I know this is old, but this is exactly what i needed to hear right now
"I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska"
Didn't expect that this video would be really touching. I mean Andrew Rannells on the thumbnail, so i prepared to laugh before
I’m nine seconds in and I already feel like I’ll end up crying save me
Andrew Rannells is amazing⭐️🎵🎭
I know this came out so many years ago, but I just wanted to say that Andrew is such a great human being, I've watched this multiple times. I'm gay, so hearing someone as pure as Andrew talk about this is so meaningful, especially at such a low point in my life.
He's so cute, and so talented.
He didn't get a part just because he is gay?? wtf.
IKR
I can’t tell whether this man is my dad or my son. He is the most beautiful of men. *_Hi I’m very gay how are you doing_*
we truly don’t deserve him, what an adorable man
He is such a god. Bless him, he’s so inspirational
i can feel the tears starting
Ugh I was already about to cry and then he started talking about Hedwig. I love that show with all my heart and I’m so glad he talked about it.
It does not always get better. As a matter of fact, for most gay men, things get worse as we age. This is a documentary that needs to be made. Elderly gay men need support.
what a wonderful man
I come here every few months just to remind myself that everything will be okay. I honestly look up to Andrew so much. His memoir changed my life and made me more accepting of myself. I might not be very articulate because words can't describe how thankful I am to be alive at the same time as this man and how much I love him!! Thank you Andrew!
god i'm crying now
Immersing oneself in the arts--music, poetry, prose, theater, whatever--is one way to find the strength within oneself to endure being pilloried by those who view one as "different". In Gone With the Wind, Rhett Butler says a line that sums that up perfectly: He tells Scarlett, who definitely marches to the beat of a different drummer, "Be different, and be damned". It matters not what the "difference" is. Getting to college is liberating...it's a much more accepting environment than junior and senior high school can ever be.
His beard,ugh♡
He makes me so happy,and so confident about myself and my sexuality.
These are my favorite videos. Thank you so much for making them it helps allot.
I love Andrew so much
Who is that producer, give me the name. I just wanna talk.
wait wheres the guy who looks like him but is straight...i need to date that guy
he's talking about aaron tveit just fyi
what show?
Laura Chandler Why am I laughing so hard?
Anton Mouzykantskii might've been catch me if you can
Matt so was he talking about Aaron Tveit?
This is unbelievably touching! Great life story!!
Being of the same generation and similar situation as Andrew there are certainly parallels I can immediately relate to.
Andrew Rannels is truly amazing 😁
OMAHA NEBRASKA
Best videos on UA-cam so inspiring
He’s pretty much my celebrity boyfriend . I’m in love with Elijah, head over heels...btw.
I came out as bi to my mom and she doesn't have a problem with me being bi just with me defining it so young
I like him so muchhhhh.
Hello he is an inspiration I love him (also, right of the bat, OMAHA NEBRASKA.)
4:30-4:40 Who is the guy who looks like Andrew and is straight?
Aaron Tveit (from what i heard)
Who is the female producer that made that horrible comment?
I love him so much.
take a shot everytime Andrew mentions he's from omaha, nebraska in an interview, and everytime ben platt mentions hes jewish
I love this ❤️
I am in love with him I love him so much
What two soul-less witches down voted this
Important video.
DUDE THE NEW NORMAL WAS THE SHIT FOR ME AS A KID
Wow
Omaha Nebraska
he didn't talk about how being the narrator of Sonic X affected him and that's the best shit this guy did wtf
??
I'm trolling but still
hi
i think he’s from orlando florida
Veneer it got better
O m a h a
0:20 4:02
He says "like" a lot.
Maybe he has anxiety idk
I’ve been rewatching all of the John Hughes films that were my touchstones growing up: Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink. These films have not held up well; the homophobic & misogynistic gags are horrible.
I want an "it got better" about the B in LGBT... Oh wait! It doesn't get better for the B in LGBT -_-
I know them feels man.
Exactly! But, try being Asexual Aromantic or Panosexual or Grayasexual. There are lots more forgotten sexualities.
True actually. I'm glad I'm fully gay. I've never met a bi guy that was at peace.
What about the T?
there's an excellent episode with Laverne Cox
