As someone who lived and breathed Glee, you are completely right. No one will understand the hatred for Glee like the former fans. Please don't ever watch it.
So, you liked it back then but you don't like it anymore. Which is understandable. But you wouldn't even re watch an episode if it was playing on a TV and you happened upon it?
@@thoomolong rewatched the entire show a few months ago and would do it again without a thought, but that’s because I grew up with it. I’ve been listening to the songs for years and don’t plan on stopping, and I have my comfort characters (Santana and Brittany, Sue…), I enjoy the campiness and how self aware the show was about how bad it is, but I would NEVER suggest that show to someone who’s never watched it and would actually advise against it if asked
I feel like it's just one of those shows you can't watch now its over, either you watched it as it was happening or you never watch it. I watched it and I still rewatch (its a lot funnier /ironic to me now tbh) but I can't imagine watching it from start to finish for the first time in 2022, espc considering whats happened with some of the cast members since it ended
you're so right about people assuming you're going to have the same opinion as them when they make requests, like how am i supposed to talk about why x sucks, or why y is a masterpiece, if neither is true
yeah like u sometimes just watch a show bc it gives u comfort or to put it on play while u do something else, just to spend time, someotmes u dont want to watch a complex masterpiece sometimes u just want entertainment
i know right? i voiced an opinion about Critical Role once and someone tried ot berate me for not wasting two hours of my time on an episode of it when i was bored ten minutes in. that seems a waste of two hours of my time >_< and im not wasting that much time when im not enjoying it! we need to realize if we like what were spending time on.
Wow your friends are not real friends (I’m joking kinda 😂). I loved Glee when it aired and watched most of it except season 6 but I never recommend it because it’s a freaking hot mess with both cast scandals and even the wild plot itself.
I am fully convinced no series will ever make me feel like Dark made me feel again. I wish I could erase it from my memory and watch it for the first time again.
This may sound really strange, but the only thing that felt the same as Dark was Attack on Titan. Highly recommend, 10/10 incredible. There will be no synopsis as all of them would be spoilers
You can make a full spoiler video on Dark and give a very intense spoiler warning. Some people will disregard it yes, but those people probably wouldn't have ever watched Dark anyway. There's so much to discuss in the show and not enough people talking about it. We need some spoiler heavy discussions.
I watched a few of his videos, and I caught up a few references to Dark and I remembered that oh yea, this show doesn't exist in the collective consciousness like stranger things does, and it's an absolute shame. Only to now see this video and realise that he doesn't just know and reference Dark, he loves it. I want people to talk about Dark and go crazy about it, it should be a cultural phenomenon.
@@vladavram9209dark is much darker than stranger things to become pop culture. Stranger things is dark enough but not too much so that it’s available to a wider audience. Dark is a much more intriguing show than stranger things ever was imo, but I can see the mass appeal of stranger things.
I wonder if he's seen The Karate Kid franchise if he wasn't interested in Cobra Kai. Or The Good Place, since he named it as one of the shows that are infinitely better than The Flash and here, he couldn't think of a show he watched and liked starting with G. He also didn't put Fate the Winx Saga on the list and I really want him to cover that. Especially since he called it the third worst show of 2021. From what I gathered in other review videos, the show doesn't seem to do anything that made the franchise stand out. No wings, no costumes, no transformations, no likable characters, no diversity, no Kiko, not even cheesy but entertaining fight scenes against CGI monsters. That's what the fans came for. And sure we just came off the first season, but they probably won't do anything of that anyway because of budget. Which, for a concept like Winx Club, is in desperate need of. And that's why I'm only watching the reviews, not the show itself. I don't even care if they're bringing in Flora. They've already disappointed me. This show is to Winx Club as Ben 10 Alien Swarm is to Ben 10.
I LOVE Gilmore Girls, but it’s not really a show where there’s much to talk about. It’s definitely more of a comfort show that you watch to follow the characters through their lives, kind of like Friends. It’s not super eventful or interesting, but you feel a part of the character’s lives. There’s not a lot of commentary you can give that doesn’t feel like you’re gossiping about your friends.
You are completely correct. Absolutely love gilmore girls, but I don’t enjoy watching commentary videos about it, it ruins the magic. They’re real, not characters, lol
agreed, videos about gilmore girls never really stick with me, there’s maybe only one or two i enjoyed. because to me the show is just the kind of fun drama and like catching up with friends. whiles there’s themes in there to be talked about, it’s nothing the fans haven’t heard or debated before. there’s flaws to the show also, but i think most gilmore girls fans are aware of the shows and the characters flaws, so video essays don’t really ever say anything we haven’t all heard about
Agree, GG is one of my favourite shows ever and have watched it several times, but I never watch other videos about it because I care so much about the characters I don't want anyone to shit-talk about them, it feels like they're attacking my friends 😂 and if Dylan makes a video about it, I can almost hear him in my head "Rory Gilmore is a TERRIBLE PERSON, she doesn't deserve the pedestal in which the show tries to put her and no one can convince me otherwise".... Like, no, get away from her, I love her and won't listen to you 🤭
Right? It’s my on-in-the-background comfort show that I fall asleep to. It’s nice. It’s comforting. That’s about it. There are certain UA-camrs like Broey Deschanel who might give a good take on the…interesting way Gilmore Girls treats class, but aside from that very specific aspect there’s really not much to say about it.
the fact that friendly space ninja just drops that he follows mike's mic and his videos so casually BLOWS MY MIND because dude, my worlds have just collided in the best way possible
@@dylanmcadam8509 He should have said no to that one, its a massive scam. No way would Scotland sell its land. You think England hasn't tried that already?
The best thing about dark was that the whole thing was planned, and Perfectly wrapped up in three seasons. Like, no unnecessary filler, no fourth season just to milk the content, just one good story with compelling characters and an interesting plot.
As a massive friends stan, the moment you said “number 6, friends” i burst into laughter lmao i mean ill admit for me its incredibly entertaining, but is it a show worth deconstructing in a video essay?? Noo! Its just a simple feel good sitcom of characters who get into funny situations and not much more than that
exactly, it is also kind of nostalgic show, I think it is very good and it is in my top 10 but not for the quality of the tv show, but just because it so nostalgic to watch it again and again. But even I would not know what to say about it.
Ikr their is nothing he could say about the show as a whole unless he wants to be a madman & make a video titled "Watching & ranking *all* episodes of Friends".
I was dealing with suicidal thoughts around the time 13 Reasons Why came out and while it did open a "conversation", it was one about romanticising my unhealthy coping mechanisms and death in general (also I was suggested by a person that I should leave tapes behind like Hannah did if I ever decided to actually end it with so much enthusiasm it made me want to vomit). I had a similar conversation like this with both my then 17-year-old friend and my 13-year-old cousin. The show absolutely failed in conveying whatever it was trying to convey and made it harder for me to convince people my issues were real and valid
@askarin for me i was 13 years old when i first watched this....the reason i had a Netflix subscription in the first place. i wasn't at all emotionally aware or mature at that point but still watched it for the hype....and my god....season 1 was a fucking fever dream. i don't think i even knew what suicide or mental health was at that point...but jeez the way they showed it. for season 2 i was still riding on the shock from season 1 so i don't remember anything about it. i literally stopped watching netflix and wasted the rest of the subscription cause of that cause i wanted to avoid the show. i spent at least 2 months after that just being shocked and not knowing how to process my emotions during my real life. literally it felt like a brain fog. Just blank expressions in emotional situations irl. after that my mind just made me forget everything about that show. i didn't even mention or think about it for 2 years until i watched friendly space ninja's video about it. now that i'm much more aware about life and stuff...wow i cant even watch any of it now. for his video i just put it on audio and walked away and did something else. i was still curious about the show's trajectory from when i left it but not enough to watch it visually. and im never watching it again. and my god when the news about the increased suicide rates amongst teens in the US came up on the news.....i was so scared. i just remember the feelings i had when watching that show...and for those graphic scenes....i just felt like i emotionally shut down at that moment cause i feel dead inside when i try to recall it. and i didn't even realize what i was watching. that was the first time i was so emotionally distressed that i shut down. and whenever i see the actors and actresses faces outside the show...i just get so much dread. i can't even look at their faces anymore....even though right now i can be aware of the actor's job and director's writing, i didn't have that distinction back then....for my 13 year old self, the actors are the characters im looking at in a show. thank god i didn't watch it years later or now....with my currently prevailing and overwhelming mental health struggles this show would have actually pushed me over the edge of no return. luckily none of my friends watched it cause they don't have netflix and are now emotionally aware of it's problems without even watching it. i'm sorry that all of that bullshit happened to you before cause of this idiotic and stupid show. i'm going through similar mental health struggles right now that you went through before...but thank god i'm emotionally aware enough to get myself out of such bouts on my own. i hope things are better for you now?
@@nia6981 I'm so sorry you had to go through all this at such a young age. I am thankfully in a better place now. I'm still struggling and I've still got a long way to go, but I'm okay. I honestly forgot most of the show by now (thank gods) and I hope nothing similar will ever be released again. Hope you're doing well!
I was suicidal at the time too and it definitely did make things worse for me. I remember there was a disclaimer but i still watched it cause it was popular and yeh it did sensational suicide so i can understand why suicide peaked after it realised. Anyways i was lucky i didn’t take my life and now im at much better place
I'm so sorry, seriously. Been there and it's a whole new circle of hell. I hope you're doing better and are surrounded by better people, even if it's just a few trusted, empathetic friends.
My favorite response to "it opened a conversation" as an argument for why something is good was by Jay Exci, and I quote: "The bar is so low, Hitler can now pass it."
I think I’m so used to seeing people shit or even riff on the show that it feels weird seeing someone say they don’t want to watch it. Even if that reason is obvious (aka it being a awful show)
I just didn't want to put myself through that. But several of my friends who were teenagers when it came out said that it glorified suicide, rape, abuse and murder instead of dissing on it the way it was supposed to.
@@reneejett6509 I wouldn’t necessarily say it glorified some of those topics, but you are completely right in that it depicted them in a very dangerous and insensitive way.
the biggest problem with glee is the fact that Ryan did not know what he wanted the show to be because glee's pilot and most of its first season and the rest of the show has completely different tones. Murphy wanted the show to be a theater kid parody/satire but also wanted a heartfelt emotional groundbreaking teen drama show and obviously it couldn't work. You CAN'T have Kurt coming out to his father but also have a teacher threatening A CHILD to join a glee club with Marijuana for comedy and expect people to take the "drama" side seriously
I think with the Game of Thrones fandom, it's not just that the show ended so poorly, but the books appear as though they will never be finished, so the fandom has nothing to talk about. At least with something like Wheel of Time, even if the show gets cancelled the books are finished, there's a conclusion to the story and you can recommend friends pick it up because there's actually an ending.
I am also convinced that because the books were not finished in time the series ended poorly because the writers and producers knew how to adapt well but not how to come up with things well and they signed up to adapt so it's no wonder they had trouble writing a good show once they started to run out of material to adapt
@@xylypotatohead3947 Or the writers adapted the ending to Game of Thrones that the original author had planned, but the show writers decided not to throw the author under the bus.
@@sammiller6631 That elements of the planned ending were in the show (Dany burninating people and going mad, R+L=J and stuff) is almost certainly true. But what is missing is pacing and context. The books have whole characters and plotlines that do not exist in the show (Lady Stoneheart, Faegon etc.) and also are paced much slower. There could be many good reasons for the ending that the show skips because they want to finish fast. And that is absolutely the fault of Dumb and Dumber- because they skipped stuff, it is their job to adapt the ending to make sense in the show's continuity, and they deserve all the mockery for just kinda forgetting about it.
@@sammiller6631 No. They did it because they wanted to skip stuff. HBO was wiling to pay for even more seasons. A lot of the books is about dialogue and people interacting with eachother. You don't have gigantic battles or spectacle, just people talking in a room or outside. The showrunners just wanted to move on and work on Star Wars. But after the poor reception of the final season they bailed.
Weirdly enough, in his discussion about why he shouldn’t make a video about Dark because he doesn’t know how to convince people to watch it without spoiling it, he actually might’ve convinced me to start watching it off of that aspect alone So Task failed successfully I guess
It´s just a great show. No loose ends, no weak plot points, no bad characters, no stretching. It feels so completed, becausse it was intended for exactly 3 seasons from episode one on.
For anyone here that likes reading and Dark, try reading A hundred years of solitude from Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Is not the same but I always felt like there were similitudes in the plot and theme and wouldn’t surprise me if the writers used it as inspiration.
Ok... I haven't watched dark but I have read A hundred years of solitude (took me way to long to realize that because I know it by the original title Cien años de soledad) and.... it was meh for me, but to be fair most likely I read it to early to understand it (10 y/o, yes I'm aware this is kinda disturbing given the topics this book portrays) but I'm still reluctant to give it a second chance since i've absolutely hated every. single. story. written by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, I just feel like he writes about things that aren't worth telling, Or he stretches somewhat interesting stories in a way that's to convoluted. I always say it this way, I reached the end of the book and kept wondering when the story will start. Well that's my little unnecessary rant. And for any non-avid reader considering reading A hundred days of solitude, just keep in mind that it is not an easy read, it's super dense as far as I can remember and Garcia Marquez's writing style isn't the most easy to follow. Sorry for any grammar atrocities, not a native english speaker.
@@nonameyet_7786 That's weird... I am Peruvian and to me Garcia Marquez's writing makes me feel like an older person telling me their stories, like when we latinos engage in conversation with an older adult and they share their unbelievable, fantastic lives and funny anecdoctes. So it is an easy read, besides the obvious confusion with the family names being too similar, because it feels like a conversation. Of course sometimes it looks like Garcia "goes off track", but truly it is just him expanding the world of the town of Macondo and making us feel like we live in it and know the unique history of it and its people. Perhaps you did not like it because truly insane things happened but everyone treated it as normal (because that is what realismo mágico, the literature movement, is about). So even, for example, when one character ascended to heaven no one batted an eye 😅
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
Everything you said about Dark is 100% correct. The talk about Dark, sometimes even to use names and relations just takes away from a lot of the shock you would get from watching it for the first time. It's also ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. I LOVE LOVE this show with everything i have.
@@rahbeeuh Dark is not like lost ….The mystery element comes from the character perspective than from them trying to be mysterious… like they’re not trying to go (oh what’s in the hutch) …the payoffs feel satisfying and if you’re paying attention like…epic…because you can technically figure it out but you have to think about What do you actually know….And there’s not a single red herring the entire time.. They don’t have to miss direct you they just tell an epic story and your along for the ride… it also has a really good English dub sooo
The Glee rant is so relatable. It never got better. It was so cringe worthy and just frustrating. And RAS didn't ruin Glee. It was already bad. The writing was bad and never went anywhere. The characters were all annoying. None of them had any redeeming qualities by the end of the show or in the beginning. Yes the cast is all talented, but it really doesn't matter because it has one of the worst cast of characters I've ever seen on a tv show. The romantic relationships were all toxic and unbearable. Nothing mattered or went anywhere. And 100% Lea Michele is worth no one's attention anymore, especially when Rachel is the worst and most hypocritical character on the show. She never at any point grows as a person or gets punished for the horrible shit she does. In fact, she gets rewarded every time. She doesn't get the solo for once? She eventually gets it. Mercedes does a better audition than her? No problem. You two can share the role so we don't get Rachel upset. She messes up her audition to NYADA? No problem. She complains until she gets another chance, which would never happen in Drama School. She'd get blacklisted. She finally gets to NYADA and doesn't take criticism from the staff there? No problem. She'll just get the role in Funny Girl anyway. Oh what's that you say? She threatens her chances with Funny Girl by going to audition for a tv show by the producer of FG and then directly after that threat, she gets the tv show? And THEN once the tv show flops, she just gets let back into the show anyway? Rachel Berry is NOT a character. She is the worst character on the entire show and has no growth or development or learns anything for her shitty diva behavior. Exactly like her actor. Rachel could have had amazing development. But no. She HAS to be rewarded for everything she does and never suffers any consequences for anything. Lea Michele should not be given attention anymore after her years of tyranny to her fellow cast and crew. She should not be praised for her talent. Talent means nothing if you treat people like she has treated people for years. She unlike Rachel needs to be held accountable and have that accountability be followed through. And I genuinely hope that whenever Hollywood is dumb enough to hire her for a project, the project will get cancelled. She does not deserve to have a career anymore if she is going to continue to treat people like this. You're right. You shouldn't have to endure that, Dylan. Take care of yourself.
She was also a big step back for Jewish representation, especially when portraying teenagers. I remember Jewish girls who resembled her in love of musicals and outfit getting picked on because of it
The best part of knowing all of the shit Rachel got away with in the show was that one time someone in a Broadway show left abruptly for a tv show and I could point and say “damn, they pulled a Rachel Berry”
After watching this video, I went straight to my laptop and started watching Dark. You sounded so enthusiastic that it kind of fascinated me. I'm actually from Germany, but somehow I never got the hype back when Dark was released (Dark is internationally very popular but not as much in Germany itself). I watched all 3 seasons in the last 2 weeks. My tip to all those who haven't watched Dark yet: Watch Dark! ;)
@@Cocktailkatze see i wish someone had told me that. i watched till like season 2 with english dub and then i tried out the german version and oml it was infinitely better. i just don't think these types of shows should have english dubs
dw you're not the only one who doesn't want you to talk about greys anatomy. my sister has watched all seasons, multiple times, in two different languages, and even just hearing the words greys anatomy brought back wayyyy too many memories oh lord
You should do what Dylan is in Trouble does and say if you recommend a show/movie if will make you less likely to review it! It works for him and most of us will tell people who recommend to stop recommending! It's really fun!
Completely agree with Dylan there. Plus he's said that he enjoys reading comments and that would be a bore if they were all just recommendations for different stuff instead of actually talking about the video itself.
Honestly the greys anatomy rant hit really closed to home. When I moved into my first apartment one of the first things me and my roommate did together was try to watch greys anatomy, she had already started it an was on season 5 so I just joined her at that point cause I wasn't willing to go back and watch five seasons and the plot seemed simple enough to follow with the occasionally clarification from my roommate. We watched about 4-5 episodes a night every night at our peak watching rate, occasionally taking breaks to do other and watch other things if more interesting content got dropped. But still at that rate we only made it to the 12th season after two and a half months we completely gave up on the show at that point because there was just no end in sight and somehoe that made everything seem just really bleak
@@ultraxim true honestly Callie and Arizona's relationship falling apart was really the last straw for me personally but the lack of Mark and Lexie also really sucked. I didn't even watch the plane crash episode cause I didn't want to actually watch it happen
Dark is quite literally one of the best shows ever made. I don’t think any video essay really could capture the beauty and complexity of the show. It really is an experience. I’m so excited for the creator’s new show!
I would really love to see a video on the handmaids tale as it's one of my favorite shows but I also understand kinda with the point u made about 13 reasons why that a show that dark can't have many jokes but everything from the cinematography to the acting is always 100
I just want to correct you on something...Katherine Heigl was labeled as a brat, ungrateful, and hard to work with, just because she spoke up about how harsh the working conditions were on Grey's Anatomy, which they were.
No, she was labelled ungrateful because she refused to be submitted for a nomination at the golden globes saying her character development wasnt good enough …
And Ellen Pompeo came out in support of her comments recently as well. I think it is awful what happened to her, you have creeps like Jared Leto who act in the worst ways to their fellow actors but still gets hired with zero repercussions
@@KariIzumi1 I’m not saying this is the reason she was blacklisted, but it’s part of the reason they saw her as ungrateful. I think she was blacklisted because there were rumours about her being a diva on sets of her movies but I don’t know if it’s true tho
@@rosek5211 given how often "difficult to work is" ends up being code for "speaking up against abuse" in Hollywood, I dunno how much of that I take at face value. As Ninja pointed out, Lea Michele is a confirmed diva bully that no one besides Ryan Murphy ever had a good word to say about and still manages to find work.
Damn the jump from GOT to Glee was VERY not expected LMAOO Also, you're right about AHS. I like AHS, but when my friends ask me how I feel about it, I always say 'it's okay overall'. There's no excitement when I say it. I genuinely like it, but is it 10 seasons worth it? Absolutely not. If you're stuck in it, well, you can leave. It's an anthology series anyway. So, new seasons, new story.
I’m in a toxic relationship w AHS. No matter how bad it gets, I always come back. I think it’s because I’m nostalgic for its peak era (s1-3) and want to recapture the feelings of watching a new season as it’s airing.
Totally agree about Dark, even though I'd love to see people talking about it more and give it the amount of hype it deserves it's hard to even talk about it without giving away a billion spoilers
@@radhiadeedou8286 Even as somebody that won't watch it (I spend time on youtube) I would much rather air on the side of caution with spoiler heavy shows.
trying to keep the first time experience of a show intact for other viewers this hard is honestly the greatest kidn of praise you can give a show imo^^ Will watch it tomorrow straight away.
im gonna vouch for dark because that show is just so fuckin good and I can't even explain it like I remember watching dark before the season 3 airing and my god the experience was just perfect like the writing , the casting , the story and they actually treat the audience with respect and intelligence . it is a mind bending experience and I think everyone who is reading this comment should watch it because you won't be disappointed
@@astoldbynickgerr duude, don't worry! Dark has it's website in which you put the season and episode you're on currently and it gives you all the info you need to not get lost, spoiler free💕 give it a chance
@@astoldbynickgerr You‘ll get it 100%. The story is quite complex, but the way the story is told is quite easy to follow and they always help you with visuals. There were some times I was a bit lost, not knowing which character had this name and then they always showed the relations without treating you like a complete moron. You won‘t regret it watching! :)
Dark is a good example of proper show planning no unnecessary extra seasons , each episode is purposeful its 3 seasons but feels like limited series they kept it short and sweet
@@peterwang5660 Fuck that, people should focus more on real numbers than base their expectations on ethnic stereotypes. Just as many shitty content comes out from Germany as good...
I'm actually kind of surprise you mentioned American Horror Story. Personally I only watched it up to the 1984 season and I can tell you this, Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange certainly make the show worth watching. Having said, I totally understand the lack of Interest. The fandom for the show really does kind of generate more of a "oh yeah, that was cool" vibe and even I never got super into it but there are some good seasons in there. If you did randomly decide to check it out, the first three seasons are considered to be the best
"Jennifer Lang"? You mean Jessica Lange? I will say that the reception that "American Horror Stories" (the spin-off) got made me discover how much of a fanbase there is. So many complaints about fanservice, especially in the first and last episodes of season 1.
i was a massive ahs fan in the earlier seasons, but the show kinda.......... lost me. most seasons i watched until the middle. the only ones i really, really loved and can safely say i recommend are hotel and house (but ik one of the fan favorites was asylum, which i thought was mid at most).
The fact that we share opinions in 13 reasons why makes me feel sane again. Everyone around me thought it was actually good and I couldn't hate it more.
@@danielrubinstein896 I saw few reviews talking about 13 reasons why in depth and from what I've seen, S1 may have been heavy, but it was also mixed in with too many flaws, especially with Hannah? Is that her name?
Dude it wasn't even accurate I was told by many people to not watch it because it would trigger the tendency and it would also trigger straight rage like the hormone monster
I have started watching Grey's Anatomy recently because my mom and I like to watch shows together and I thought.. You know. 18 seasons. That'll take a while before we have to hunt for a new one. I LOVE THE SHOW, but I could honestly never imagine starting it just because you want to make a video about it. It's a massive show with many things happening and it would be exhausting. So good call on that!
Same. I’m currently on season 6 and I’m enjoying it so far. Although I heard people say it goes downhill in a couple of seasons more. It also doesn’t help that they ruined so many characters arcs. There are so many questionable writing choices 😔
Glee is one of those shows you had to be there to experience and it's very telling that nobody has even attempted to make a crappy remake of it. I tried rewatching it last year and I just found myself skipping over so many parts, mainly involving Rachel, and that's literally half the show in the earlier seasons (the good part) and she only gets more screen time as the seasons go by. I have so much nostalgia for Kurt, Mercedes, Santana, and Quinn that I don't mind mind skipping around. I couldn't imagine watching Glee for the first time in 2022.
I have to agree plus learning how terrible lea Michelle was to the cast while doing the show totally killed whatever chance I had of rewatching this show
Watched it for the first time in summer 2020, and my obsession is still going strong, but as everyone says those who love glee are simultaneously the ones who despise it the most. When I rewatch every couple of months I do skip season 1 because I've seen it enough to know what happens, and I largely skip s4 and 5 as well. It's just a comfort thing for me now, and I do appreciate that most of the time it's subpar at best, its just got a weird nostalgia and the songs are very easy to listen to, they're all my school disco songs from my young childhood.
My mom got me into glee during the first season. I’m the same age as the characters and loved it. They should have ended it in season 3 with half the main cast going off to university/their post high school lives. Even my mom, who got me into the show, stopped watching after season 2 and mostly just tuned in to watch the musical parts.
What you said about Dark is spot on. I watched s1 and tried to get my friends to watch it but it was incredibly hard to get them into it... because you basically can't tell them anything, every information truly is a spoiler. I strongly advise anyone who hasn't seen it to do so, it's magnificent. As a German, I am so happy that this is a show that is so readily available to so many people all over the world since many movies and shows that I consider to be at least as good as Dark are not. It is not only a great show, it is also a great representation of a German style of movie/show.
oh really? i've had a few friends try to get me into the show, aside from them i have heard good reviews for it i've just never gotten around. i am interested in what you mean by german styles of media, are they usually very intricate? and though they're inaccessible, what other recommendations do you have?
@@bee-sw6hw it is amazing, it is a masterpiece. I've never heard anyone who watched it say it was bad. But I'm gonna say this, if you're the kind of person who likes to get invested in a show you'll love it, if you're the kind of person who only watches movies and TV shows to turn their brain off and be entertained after a long day it's probably not for you
@@bee-sw6hw It's a bit difficult to explain but Dark is very similar to German crime shows and movies (and to a certain extent, Scandinavian crime productions, though they tend to be even darker and brutal than German ones). Germany looooves them, our broadcasting stations are constantly producing and releasing new ones. They are a huge thing here. If you're interested in reading more about it, Tatort the tv show is probably the best place to start. And Dark is very similar to the way they are structured and shot and a lot of the people who have worked on Dark's production have previously worked on German crime shows (most of the actors as well). German crime shows are usually very dark (haha), intricate and have a certain brutal element to it without being too in your face. They don't shy away from showing pretty much anything, I think Dark even opens with a s*x scene? S*x and nudity are pretty standard here. The psyche of humans is also usually a pretty important part of the story too, might sound weird but there's usually always someone with depression, addiction or ptsd. Other than that Dark also has a similar style in terms of camera angles. lighting and filming locations. Idk if I explained that well enough... Unfortunately, as I mentioned, a lot of German crime productions are only available in German without subtitles. But afaik some people have subbed Tatort and Polizeiruf 110 episodes and posted them online and you might even find a few on Amazon Prime or Netflix. A lot of shows and movies I really like unfortunately don't even have an English wikipedia entry, like Der Fall Collini :( It's a shame, I think many people would enjoy them. Netflix might have a tag for German shows though but I don't know what is available internationally unfortunately but it is probably worth a try :) PS: sorry for the long response!
The crazy thing about the Katherine Heigl thing is that she wasn't even being a brat, she was just the only one willing to speak up. Ellen Pompeo did an interview last year talking about the conditions on set and how she was bullied by production. They really should've ended the show a long time ago.
being a fan of glee actually ruined so many years of my life because the show itself, the cast relationships and the fandom were so painfully toxic that it made me feel very anxious towards the show, but it also took over my life, so all that went on in that little glee universe actually took a toll on my mental health. i don't think it's particularly bad, but i get it, i really do. and my life has been much better without thinking about it lol
I know getting this answered a year later is a long shot. But out of curiosity, what absolutely bizarre writing choices are you thinking of? For the record, this is not a baiting question at ALL lol. There are just so many bizarre choices to choose from that I’m always interested to see which ones immediately come to people’s minds haha.
@@emilyfisher7060 pretty much anything regarding the love interests of the two lorelais feels like it was written on random and they break up and get together and break up again and get together again around a million times throughout all the seasons and at certain point it just starts feeling like shock value
@@emilyfisher7060 Not the person you're replying to but - Luke's long lost daughter storyline. The writing for Luke beginning halfway thru season 6 (I still dont think the character of Luke was ever recovered tbh and that includes the revival). Christopher having magic money randomly was super lame. I think there's a lot of interesting ground to cover for the writing choices behind season 6 and 7, (and the revival) particularly the drama of the showrunners not renewing their contract for season 7, and ending season 6 (with Lorelai and Christopher) in such a petty way, that seemed like a 'fuck you' or spite toward fans as much as it was intended toward the CW execs who didnt pay Amy and Dan Palladino more money, or whatever their beef was. I actually really like most of season 6 and I think the writers who took over for season 7 did a great job, tbh considering the circumstances... (that is as far as unpopular GG opinions). Anyway cheers, just found this youtuber and was looking for the gilmore girlies in comments
When Dark finished i was empty and couldn’t consume new content . I was heartbroken in the best way possible because you get so immersed and invested. Masterpiece
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
@@Mr.DISRESPECT in my opinion, that's the beauty of it because it makes a lot more sense even you re-watch it because you pick up on these hidden details that put things into perspective but to each their own. i mean it's a critically acclaimed and revered show for a reason
@@naomipandey3048 No, it is not fun after watching 1hour episode and then again watching a video explaining wtf just happened in it. I watch Series for entertainment, not to get stressed out. And this one was a pain in my ass. When people recommend others to watch this, they should also tell them that this is a content and research-heavy series. I hate people who told me to watch this without context.
@@Mr.DISRESPECT lmao if you really wanted to watch the show for entertainment and not thinking you should have quit after the first episode: even that was creepy and confusing enough. i don't understand why you even bothered to watch one hour long videos if you didn't want to understand it. plus if you actually waited to watch the next episode instead of watching these explanation videos you actually would have understood what's going on. it's not others' jobs to tell you everything about a show. be grateful that you have people actually recommending shows to you rather than hating them for introducing you to a show they think you might like. there's nothing wrong with watching purely simple and entertaining tv but there's no reason to walk around pretending that others can like thought provoking and mindful shows.
@@naomipandey3048 Why do I really give a damn about completing this?: F*cking peer pressure. But I wouldn't change the fact that you can't watch this without knowing the plot or objective of the story. Maybe this is not even meant for me cuz after rewatching it with my GF I still don't understand what's going on most of the time, Cant even complain lol
The glee rant killed me. From his calm explanations about GoT to his insane dramatic Glee rant. Shit was hilarious. Can you seriously consider making a spoiler filled review of Dark?
"i have chocolate to eat my guy, have you seen my cabinet" is now my go-to excuse for not doing things (like the paper i'm procrastinating on by watching this video lol)
your anger towards 13rw is so relatable. it makes my blood BOIL whenever I see someone still hype this shit up. there's barely anything in media that's as harmful as this
3 things : - The Glee and Grey’s Anatomy rants were hilarious 😂 - I kinda want to watch Dark now - I was expecting one of the show to be supernatural (or criminal minds, dunno why) for some reason ? Because it’s heckin’ long ? (Personally, I tried twice watching supernatural. I gave up both times around the same spot, aka middle season 8)
I’m old enough to had been there when Supernatural first came out. That pilot episode, and others like the Scarecrow were _amazing_ I watched that show religiously every week. I stopped watching after the end of Season 6. I read online the producers said the ‘Main plot’ of the show had ended, and they were just going to keep going for fan service until it ran out. That didn’t interested me at all. Color me surprised when I learned the show ended after 15 seasons!
I agree with everything you except for supernatural, it has 15seasons but got boring I the only downfall of it is its season finale but its such a good show it aired when I was 3 I started watching when I was 13 and I loved every minute of it
Absolutely agree with 13 reasons why. Just read the book, it was a whole lot more impactful and concise. No dumb shock value tricks. Also for AHS, the only season worth watching is season one. All the other seasons were either fine or went on wayyyy too long lol. It also is not great so binge, it’s much better on tv. But do whatever videos you like! I will definitely take your recommendation for Dark.
With AHS, every season has several points, often mid-episode, where you feel like it should just end, there's nothing more to say - and suddenly, there's a new plot point and it's not exciting at all.
@@sammiller6631 really season 3 is the best for me and it makes the others seasons esp 10 watchable .l really think its bad but i feel like i like the actors involved and its like a theatere sketch troop they take big swings and often big misses . i have no excuse for watching the most recent season but did I? yes . the best part was a child actress that didnt suck she wore and ate the scenery and other characters and actors need to get on her level . the plot though......we lost that along the way
Dark is an incredible series that I feel a lot of people in the US don't give a chance because it is in German, but it is A-MA-ZING. I'd give anything to erase it from my memory just to experience it again, and therefore I'm sad that Ninja can't do a video on it, but I understand why 100%. Just go watch it.
Love whatever you choose to do! You're vids are the only way I would ever watch the teen/drama shows, so I have no expectations but love what you do. You gotta take care of yourself so you do you!
I knoow! I watched Sabrina and that's how I found the channel, but I'll never watch the shows. I don't watch horror movies, but I consume videos on them like a starving kid in a candy factory.
Look, I have never watched a single episode of Sabrina or Riverdale or that universe. But I have watched ALL his videos on them, multiple times. They are glorious!
the part about gilmore girl was very painful for me since it's my comfort show but i get you're point and u're totally right, nothing special about it that's why i love it
I think in its time Gilmore Girls _was_ fairly special, actually, because it was a show that was heavily led by and focused on women and the relationships between women. It was about mothers and daughter, generational dynamics, and female friendships. It was about people’s relationships with each other, with the world, and with themselves, and it didn’t feel the need to be about more than that. It also didn’t feel the need to invent some big, dramatic stakes to pin everything to. It was about all the mundane little struggles and long-term low-simmering difficulties of life. It valued women just living and being, enough to make a show about it. Yes, in hindsight it was overly white and overly hetero. But 1. It was a product of its time, and 2. The fact that it was overly white and overly hetero doesn’t actually negate that, at least for the first three or four seasons, it was an excellently realized story that was good for what it was. I think the story about how Where You Lead got rerecorded to become the theme song of the show really captures what was so beautiful and praise-worthy about the show: “Goffin (Carole King’s daughter) told BuzzFeed News in a phone interview that her mother was not singing that song much anymore because it had these kind of ‘stand by your man’ lyrics and she wasn’t feeling it anymore. […] But with a switch of the lyrics, the addition of King's daughter, and the inspiration of Gilmore Girls, "Where You Lead" suddenly had brand new significance. […] Instead of being a "stand by your man" ballad, "Where You Lead" became associated with female friendship, sisters, mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and so many other platonic yet meaningful women-centric relationships. To Goffin, the song's now about how "there is no distance that is too far to go be with your child.” 🥺❤
@@Forlif3rs season six Rory was awful, but in rewatching the show in its entirety it's not that surprising. Everyone in her world powdered her ass and told her she was the bestest person evar except Mitchell, who was the first person in the entire show who didn't kiss Rory's ass and nothing prepared her for rejection. And the absolute worst part of it all? The follow up special on Netflix completely proved him right. She did one whole article and absolutely nothing else after college and thought herself too good to show up prepared to the one company that was willing to work with her. Season 6 could've been a temporary setback where Rory found a different passion or figured out why journalism and came back more passionate than ever, but no. :(
The 3rd season of Daredevil being divisive? I feel like the 2nd season was by far more split in critical reception. Most reviews I've seen love season 3. Daredevil being the best Marvel show still to this day I think warrants some praise :)
If you think about it, Daredevil mirrors the Dark Knight trilogy almost perfectly. Season 1 is fantastic and the perfect origin like Batman Begins, Season 2 is pretty great as well although it is a little messy like Dark Knight Rises, and Season 3 is a legit masterpiece like Dark Knight. Season 3 is probably my second favorite season of television, it’s literal perfection imo
Yeahhh i remember i didn't love the second season and after revisiting i loved it but lots of ppl i know still hate on it. But season 3?? Specially the 2 last episodes? Art.
Thirteen reasons why is the perfect example of studios cashing in and destroying actually fairly decent source material. I recently reread the book and can definitely say the general tone and message is worlds away from what the show turned into.
Take me as someone who’s going to vouch for some, not all, seasons of AHS, especially Asylum being the most insane thing I’d seen on television at the time. Definitely worth the watch, even if you don’t want to cover it on a video.
I can’t believe he likes sarah paulson & still won’t watch it lol! She’s one of my favvvvv actors, along with evan peters! For acting alone, every season is worth one watch, in my opinion.
Amazing more like it. Every season I watch after Asylum I haven't enjoyed as I did with Asylum. It's brutal as it's enthralling. It's Jessica Lange best performance in the series.
Agree with everything you said on Dark. It's the only show (I ever watched) that just felt like a perfectly crafted story from start to finish. Not a minute of screen time was wasted in that show and everything came together so well. Which is truly a feat considering the kind of story it is the show could've easily become a confusing, plot-hole littered mess in less skilled hands.
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
I'm one of the people who asked about Dark. It's also probably my favourite show, easily the most hard hitting to the last 15 years of my life. I watched it while I was living IN Germany at the time, something that happened very suddenly and was very turbulent. It means something very deep to me, and I can understand why you wouldn't want to make a video about it. I have no idea how I'd even discuss it, especially given the fact that after the first 10 seconds, it's all spoilers. To accurately describe it without telling anyone anything, I can only say, have you ever seen something so beautiful that it breaks your heart? That's Dark.
13:43 it’s funny how you mention Grey’s Anatomy and how long it takes because I decided to binge it in 2018 when there was only like 14 seasons available on Netflix. I was super pregnant with my daughter and couldn’t do much at the time so it was the perfect time to watch it. Anyways, I was about a month into my binge and my husband came downstairs and told me he thinks I need to stop watching Grey’s because it’s too depressing and making the baby not want to come.
Hi! I am an Italian, who moved in Germany almost 6 years ago. "Dark" was the first series I've managed to watch in German, so it has an added special connection to me. It's nice to hear you like it too so much! 😊
I'm actually German and well yes it's great that he likes it, because I do too, but as a German Girl myself I has to say the acting isn't as good as the writing. because no one in Germany speaks like this Teanagers in this series...😅💁🏽♀️
Yeah, I noticed it too confronting with how my friends here talk. 😅 But I thought it was a regional thing.. Concerning the acting, you are right anyway: some of the young actors are clearly unexpirienced and stiff. But the tone of the series is asking a lot from them.. In "small" countries as Germany and Italy there is not such a broad pool of wannabe young actors like in the US (+all english speaking countries). There is just less probability to find genious young actors. ...believe me, young italian actors are sooooo cringy sometimes. 🙈
As a person that also watched (maybe suffered through) 13 Reasons Why, everything beyond Season 1 is contrived trash. Though I would've loved to see you rip and tear through the entire show, I get why you don't want to.
Exactly my thoughts. He spoiled his opinion in other videos before so I was hoping he'll do a rant video about it someday, but actually I understand why he doesn't want to give it more attention than it already had. It's crap.
Lmao, I didn't even finish it. I'm tryna finish it now because I hate leaving shows unfinished but most of the time I'm like 'Why did that happen? That was so confusing for the character to do, it came out of nowhere????' I did like the first season tho and the book (do people even know it was a book???) was interesting too. There wasn't much to the book (if you're interested in reading it, the first season was based on that and the rest of the show has nothing to do with it), it's mainly just a really sad tale about a girl whose life fell to pieces. I guess I liked it, it did make me really sad tho lol
@@nobodyisnotsomebody I just never understood why that show had more than one season. It served its purpose and got people to “join the conversation” (whatever said “conversation” was); the story ended there, there was no need for more. Netflix just capitalized off its gigantic success and came up with a completely different story that had nothing to do with its original aim.
@@julietafernandez6350 Exactly. It always annoys me when the show will go off without following the book as it tends to ruin a lot of things. I never really realised it was capitalism before for some reason but you're deffintly right
Ohmygod thank you, finally someone said what I’ve been thinking. Everyone I know has always begged me to watch Grey’s Anatomy and I just cannot be fucked man. It’s too long, and medical dramas get so boring so quickly. I have no idea how it’s still going
I watched the last season of GoT with my parents (they started in 2016-2017, I started at 2018 cause I was way too young earlier) so having seen the reaction of both generations, my friends and my parents (who don't do internet culture): the GoT fanbase is dead. We were all so disappointed in the end, even watching the few clips while you were talking about it made me sad. I might watch the spin off, but it will never be as hyped or loved as the original, because that god forsaken eighth season left a bitter taste in everyone's mouth.
Some things are so good it would take literal dozens of hours to throoughly exAmine and explain Some things are so god awful it would take literally dozens of hours to thoroughly explain
you were right when you said that people who have watched the show will understand why you wouldn't want to make a video on DARK. It really is an incredible tv series. Very to the point, succinct and crisp. The concept was so good, the acting even more and the plot-twists: just amazing. And that's all I can even talk about it. What a good piece of entertainment!
I think the reason why dark is a chef's kiss is because it was not hurried. Every plot, events, everything connects to the point where every episode feels like a mystery. Kudos to the writer and for the team who didn't milk it too much and end it with a flawless three season. It was polished and the good things just don't stop.
I totally agree with what you said about Dark. I'd only add how INSANELY GREAT the casting is (although giving any further details on why the casting is genius would be a HUGE spoiler...). Seriously, guys, go watch Dark.
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
The casting directors and makeup department came together to make it all make 100% sense. Smartest casting decisions ever, smarter than casting RDJ as Tony stark
If 13 Reasons Why was a single season with some modicum of tact, maybe it would have had some merit. Instead, it essentially became a sensationalist soap opera that the creators expected the audience to take seriously. I agree about the cast, they were all very endearing.
Yeah I remember saying to people after the first season ended that it should only have one season because I didn’t see where it would go after that and if it did continue that it’d probably only get worst and look at that it did. Season 2 wasn’t that bad but you can see signs that the show was starting to fall apart. The rest of the seasons no excuses at all, those were just plain out bad. They killed whatever good will people had left for the show and I no longer defend it when people say they hate it because I see why. I think the show could’ve left behind a very potent legacy if it only had one season but they screwed it up.
@@JonJayAllDay Through its retcons and contrived use of Hannah, I feel like season 2 was a betrayal of the first. It raised some interesting talking points such as personal accountability, flaws in the justice system, and the ambiguous nature of the truth, yet it went well out of its way to make characters more complex and redeemable than previously established. It was clear the creators had no idea how to continue from the first season, and the changes made Hannah especially difficult to understand.
idk why ppl request FRIENDS of all things? Like whether you love it or hate it I can’t imagine it would make a very long video? I love it but I’ll just be able to say how funny I find most of the characters are with a few nitpicks of the storylines in later seasons.
Gave this a like just because of your new title and promotion of established titles. I love how extra you are😂 I’m gonna do this for my sister, she’s gonna lose it, it’ll make her whole life😆 Thank you my Lord💙
please do your research before you purchase anything - many of these companies are scams! this one doesn’t even seem to be based in scotland. you won’t actually become a laird, and often the money isn’t going where they say it will.
love that you did this dylan and that you shouted out mike mics. also miss mothership podcast we need a check in to see if bruno watched any of the stuff he was supposed to. so so looking forward to the vampire diaries video hope u cover originals too cause lukewarm take originals is better but that just cause the plotlines lean a bit more mature and overall the actors are way better than tvd. i feel like originals was the cw death rattle before everything became a trash pile
You’re so right, The Originals is miles better than TVD. More interesting, less annoying characters, more engaging plot points and it didn’t drag on and on. It ended when it needed to without overstaying its welcome. Also there was barely any teenage bullshite lol
@@livcaitbff yeah exactly i hate that they did legacies or whatever tf that sequel show is. Im also just waiting to see joseph morgan in more things cause he truly stole the show. like random but I really want him to play dr. doom in the MCU
In my opinion Glee and AHS have similar strengths and flaws. They have some truly great moments, but there’s a lot random crap to get through for those moments. AHS is definitely more consistent, but it has a tendency to introduce a theme or idea and never investigate it.
@@noisylala4986 came here to say it. I swore off any show with Ryan Murphy's involvement after Glee because this is a long standing pattern with him. I really, really, reeeeeeeeally like the premise of Glow but I didn't want to get my heart broken when the Season Two Slump of his kicked in.
@@KariIzumi1 So true!! It's the lack of consistency that does it for me. He creates beautiful characters to ruin their whole development in one episode or in the next season🙄
@@noisylala4986 *Popular* may be the only exception to this, but probably because the show got axed after it's second season. That show was pretty much *Glee* without the musical numbers, from the butch-looking teacher who made everyone's lives miserable to the cheerleaders running the school to the plot where the parents of two kids from opposite sides of the popularity war get married. I have to honestly wonder how many of Glee's stories were meant for that show, given the commonalities.
@@noisylala4986 that’s why I enjoy more his short series ! Like American crime stories and scream queens. I like his touch but I agree with you as well
As a big fan of Dark, I completely agree with the spoiler argument. My German boyfriend suggested to watch the show, because everyone here is super proud of it (which is well deserved) and I had no idea about the plot, nothing. And it worked wonders... i never anticipated liking it THIS much. I would still love a video about it just to have a reason to experience the plot one more time... it was too good, I want more Dark content 😩
Wanted to see if The 100 was on that list. Very excited and very hopeful to see if it's in the lineup for a future video! Also I watched 1899 like a couple months ago and was on the fence about Dark, but i guess not anymore 😄
I can't agree with you MORE about DARK, it's my #1 show EVER, followed by Breaking Bad and Peaky Blinders (now that I've seen the final episode). DARK is an ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE of a show
I’d love to know what you think about Our Flag Means Death! It’s a show that has impacted me beyond belief since it came out. I’m so grateful for it. I of course don’t imagine to ever see a video about it on the channel but if anyone else has thoughts on it I’d love to see your comments :)!
oh man i loved ittt!! i came to know about it through Rowan Ellis and i have absolutely no regrets. it has the perfect mix of serious and camp, with an amazingly cute love story, i enjoyed every single second of it and i watched it so fast lol
As someone who lived and breathed Glee, you are completely right. No one will understand the hatred for Glee like the former fans. Please don't ever watch it.
So, you liked it back then but you don't like it anymore. Which is understandable. But you wouldn't even re watch an episode if it was playing on a TV and you happened upon it?
@@thoomolong rewatched the entire show a few months ago and would do it again without a thought, but that’s because I grew up with it. I’ve been listening to the songs for years and don’t plan on stopping, and I have my comfort characters (Santana and Brittany, Sue…), I enjoy the campiness and how self aware the show was about how bad it is, but I would NEVER suggest that show to someone who’s never watched it and would actually advise against it if asked
nothing truer as ever been said. 😭
I feel like it's just one of those shows you can't watch now its over, either you watched it as it was happening or you never watch it. I watched it and I still rewatch (its a lot funnier /ironic to me now tbh) but I can't imagine watching it from start to finish for the first time in 2022, espc considering whats happened with some of the cast members since it ended
Glee is a spiral into insanity right from episode one. You’re good to skip it
you're so right about people assuming you're going to have the same opinion as them when they make requests, like how am i supposed to talk about why x sucks, or why y is a masterpiece, if neither is true
Hi Julia! 👋
yeah like u sometimes just watch a show bc it gives u comfort or to put it on play while u do something else, just to spend time, someotmes u dont want to watch a complex masterpiece sometimes u just want entertainment

You can make a full spoiler video on Dark and give a very intense spoiler warning. Some people will disregard it yes, but those people probably wouldn't have ever watched Dark anyway. There's so much to discuss in the show and not enough people talking about it. We need some spoiler heavy discussions.
I watched a few of his videos, and I caught up a few references to Dark and I remembered that oh yea, this show doesn't exist in the collective consciousness like stranger things does, and it's an absolute shame. Only to now see this video and realise that he doesn't just know and reference Dark, he loves it. I want people to talk about Dark and go crazy about it, it should be a cultural phenomenon.
@@vladavram9209 hell yeah
@@vladavram9209dark is much darker than stranger things to become pop culture. Stranger things is dark enough but not too much so that it’s available to a wider audience. Dark is a much more intriguing show than stranger things ever was imo, but I can see the mass appeal of stranger things.

I wonder if he's seen The Karate Kid franchise if he wasn't interested in Cobra Kai. Or The Good Place, since he named it as one of the shows that are infinitely better than The Flash and here, he couldn't think of a show he watched and liked starting with G.
He also didn't put Fate the Winx Saga on the list and I really want him to cover that. Especially since he called it the third worst show of 2021. From what I gathered in other review videos, the show doesn't seem to do anything that made the franchise stand out. No wings, no costumes, no transformations, no likable characters, no diversity, no Kiko, not even cheesy but entertaining fight scenes against CGI monsters. That's what the fans came for. And sure we just came off the first season, but they probably won't do anything of that anyway because of budget. Which, for a concept like Winx Club, is in desperate need of. And that's why I'm only watching the reviews, not the show itself. I don't even care if they're bringing in Flora. They've already disappointed me. This show is to Winx Club as Ben 10 Alien Swarm is to Ben 10.
He's right not to make videos on most of these shows 💯👍
@@AJ-xc4qe When did he say it was the 3rd worst show of 2021?
I LOVE Gilmore Girls, but it’s not really a show where there’s much to talk about. It’s definitely more of a comfort show that you watch to follow the characters through their lives, kind of like Friends. It’s not super eventful or interesting, but you feel a part of the character’s lives. There’s not a lot of commentary you can give that doesn’t feel like you’re gossiping about your friends.
You are completely correct. Absolutely love gilmore girls, but I don’t enjoy watching commentary videos about it, it ruins the magic. They’re real, not characters, lol
agreed, videos about gilmore girls never really stick with me, there’s maybe only one or two i enjoyed. because to me the show is just the kind of fun drama and like catching up with friends. whiles there’s themes in there to be talked about, it’s nothing the fans haven’t heard or debated before. there’s flaws to the show also, but i think most gilmore girls fans are aware of the shows and the characters flaws, so video essays don’t really ever say anything we haven’t all heard about
Agree, GG is one of my favourite shows ever and have watched it several times, but I never watch other videos about it because I care so much about the characters I don't want anyone to shit-talk about them, it feels like they're attacking my friends 😂 and if Dylan makes a video about it, I can almost hear him in my head "Rory Gilmore is a TERRIBLE PERSON, she doesn't deserve the pedestal in which the show tries to put her and no one can convince me otherwise".... Like, no, get away from her, I love her and won't listen to you 🤭
Right? It’s my on-in-the-background comfort show that I fall asleep to. It’s nice. It’s comforting. That’s about it.
There are certain UA-camrs like Broey Deschanel who might give a good take on the…interesting way Gilmore Girls treats class, but aside from that very specific aspect there’s really not much to say about it.
exactly! thats why the more interesting videos about it are analysis about the characters and their generational trauma and that kind of stuff
the fact that friendly space ninja just drops that he follows mike's mic and his videos so casually BLOWS MY MIND because dude, my worlds have just collided in the best way possible
Me too dude

@Tekno Pathetic I mean is he gonna say no to a sponsor?
@@dylanmcadam8509 He should have said no to that one, its a massive scam. No way would Scotland sell its land. You think England hasn't tried that already?
The best thing about dark was that the whole thing was planned, and Perfectly wrapped up in three seasons. Like, no unnecessary filler, no fourth season just to milk the content, just one good story with compelling characters and an interesting plot.
As complex stories should be done!
that's how it always SHOULD be done
@J N the first 2 episodes? Fr? You didn't watch ANY farther than halfway through episode 3. Dude. Just watch a bit more. It gets wacky
@J N the first few episodes are there to establish what "normal" is before thoroughly violating any concept of normality afterwards
@J N No one thinks she's a good person lol. You should definitely watch a bit more though.
As a massive friends stan, the moment you said “number 6, friends” i burst into laughter lmao i mean ill admit for me its incredibly entertaining, but is it a show worth deconstructing in a video essay?? Noo! Its just a simple feel good sitcom of characters who get into funny situations and not much more than that
Whos side were you on for the we were on a brake argument lol
exactly, it is also kind of nostalgic show, I think it is very good and it is in my top 10 but not for the quality of the tv show, but just because it so nostalgic to watch it again and again. But even I would not know what to say about it.
Ikr their is nothing he could say about the show as a whole unless he wants to be a madman & make a video titled "Watching & ranking *all* episodes of Friends".
As an autistic teenager at the time that show was baffling 🤯🤔🙃
Dunno, stubagful made a pretty good 1.5 hour video on it. 🤷🏼♀️
I was dealing with suicidal thoughts around the time 13 Reasons Why came out and while it did open a "conversation", it was one about romanticising my unhealthy coping mechanisms and death in general (also I was suggested by a person that I should leave tapes behind like Hannah did if I ever decided to actually end it with so much enthusiasm it made me want to vomit). I had a similar conversation like this with both my then 17-year-old friend and my 13-year-old cousin. The show absolutely failed in conveying whatever it was trying to convey and made it harder for me to convince people my issues were real and valid
@askarin for me i was 13 years old when i first watched this....the reason i had a Netflix subscription in the first place. i wasn't at all emotionally aware or mature at that point but still watched it for the hype....and my god....season 1 was a fucking fever dream. i don't think i even knew what suicide or mental health was at that point...but jeez the way they showed it.
for season 2 i was still riding on the shock from season 1 so i don't remember anything about it. i literally stopped watching netflix and wasted the rest of the subscription cause of that cause i wanted to avoid the show.
i spent at least 2 months after that just being shocked and not knowing how to process my emotions during my real life. literally it felt like a brain fog. Just blank expressions in emotional situations irl.
after that my mind just made me forget everything about that show. i didn't even mention or think about it for 2 years until i watched friendly space ninja's video about it. now that i'm much more aware about life and stuff...wow i cant even watch any of it now. for his video i just put it on audio and walked away and did something else. i was still curious about the show's trajectory from when i left it but not enough to watch it visually. and im never watching it again.
and my god when the news about the increased suicide rates amongst teens in the US came up on the news.....i was so scared.
i just remember the feelings i had when watching that show...and for those graphic scenes....i just felt like i emotionally shut down at that moment cause i feel dead inside when i try to recall it. and i didn't even realize what i was watching. that was the first time i was so emotionally distressed that i shut down.
and whenever i see the actors and actresses faces outside the show...i just get so much dread. i can't even look at their faces anymore....even though right now i can be aware of the actor's job and director's writing, i didn't have that distinction back then....for my 13 year old self, the actors are the characters im looking at in a show.
thank god i didn't watch it years later or now....with my currently prevailing and overwhelming mental health struggles this show would have actually pushed me over the edge of no return. luckily none of my friends watched it cause they don't have netflix and are now emotionally aware of it's problems without even watching it.
i'm sorry that all of that bullshit happened to you before cause of this idiotic and stupid show. i'm going through similar mental health struggles right now that you went through before...but thank god i'm emotionally aware enough to get myself out of such bouts on my own. i hope things are better for you now?
@@nia6981 I'm so sorry you had to go through all this at such a young age. I am thankfully in a better place now. I'm still struggling and I've still got a long way to go, but I'm okay. I honestly forgot most of the show by now (thank gods) and I hope nothing similar will ever be released again. Hope you're doing well!
I was suicidal at the time too and it definitely did make things worse for me. I remember there was a disclaimer but i still watched it cause it was popular and yeh it did sensational suicide so i can understand why suicide peaked after it realised. Anyways i was lucky i didn’t take my life and now im at much better place
I'm so sorry, seriously. Been there and it's a whole new circle of hell. I hope you're doing better and are surrounded by better people, even if it's just a few trusted, empathetic friends.
My favorite response to "it opened a conversation" as an argument for why something is good was by Jay Exci, and I quote: "The bar is so low, Hitler can now pass it."
His rage when he talked about 13 reasons why was well deserving.
Yes it was I really enjoyed his rant 🤗😊
I think I’m so used to seeing people shit or even riff on the show that it feels weird seeing someone say they don’t want to watch it. Even if that reason is obvious (aka it being a awful show)
I just didn't want to put myself through that. But several of my friends who were teenagers when it came out said that it glorified suicide, rape, abuse and murder instead of dissing on it the way it was supposed to.
@@reneejett6509 I wouldn’t necessarily say it glorified some of those topics, but you are completely right in that it depicted them in a very dangerous and insensitive way.
700th like
the biggest problem with glee is the fact that Ryan did not know what he wanted the show to be because glee's pilot and most of its first season and the rest of the show has completely different tones. Murphy wanted the show to be a theater kid parody/satire but also wanted a heartfelt emotional groundbreaking teen drama show and obviously it couldn't work. You CAN'T have Kurt coming out to his father but also have a teacher threatening A CHILD to join a glee club with Marijuana for comedy and expect people to take the "drama" side seriously
I think with the Game of Thrones fandom, it's not just that the show ended so poorly, but the books appear as though they will never be finished, so the fandom has nothing to talk about. At least with something like Wheel of Time, even if the show gets cancelled the books are finished, there's a conclusion to the story and you can recommend friends pick it up because there's actually an ending.
I am also convinced that because the books were not finished in time the series ended poorly because the writers and producers knew how to adapt well but not how to come up with things well and they signed up to adapt so it's no wonder they had trouble writing a good show once they started to run out of material to adapt
@@xylypotatohead3947 Or the writers adapted the ending to Game of Thrones that the original author had planned, but the show writers decided not to throw the author under the bus.
@@sammiller6631 That elements of the planned ending were in the show (Dany burninating people and going mad, R+L=J and stuff) is almost certainly true. But what is missing is pacing and context.
The books have whole characters and plotlines that do not exist in the show (Lady Stoneheart, Faegon etc.) and also are paced much slower. There could be many good reasons for the ending that the show skips because they want to finish fast.
And that is absolutely the fault of Dumb and Dumber- because they skipped stuff, it is their job to adapt the ending to make sense in the show's continuity, and they deserve all the mockery for just kinda forgetting about it.
@@rakshithanand8262 Skipped stuff? Or weren't given the budget to fit everything in?
@@sammiller6631
No. They did it because they wanted to skip stuff. HBO was wiling to pay for even more seasons.
A lot of the books is about dialogue and people interacting with eachother.
You don't have gigantic battles or spectacle, just people talking in a room or outside.
The showrunners just wanted to move on and work on Star Wars. But after the poor reception of the final season they bailed.
Weirdly enough, in his discussion about why he shouldn’t make a video about Dark because he doesn’t know how to convince people to watch it without spoiling it, he actually might’ve convinced me to start watching it off of that aspect alone
So
Task failed successfully I guess
Are you enjoying it?
It´s just a great show. No loose ends, no weak plot points, no bad characters, no stretching. It feels so completed, becausse it was intended for exactly 3 seasons from episode one on.
Same lol
Same, I've wanted to check it out before but now it got higher on my watchlist
@@lyckastahl9311 go check it out, I started it and it’s so good!
For anyone here that likes reading and Dark, try reading A hundred years of solitude from Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Is not the same but I always felt like there were similitudes in the plot and theme and wouldn’t surprise me if the writers used it as inspiration.
As someone who watched Dark and read this book I totally agree, especially the concept of family members repeating each other’s same sins and mistakes
This comment needs to be seen by way more people
Ok... I haven't watched dark but I have read A hundred years of solitude (took me way to long to realize that because I know it by the original title Cien años de soledad) and.... it was meh for me, but to be fair most likely I read it to early to understand it (10 y/o, yes I'm aware this is kinda disturbing given the topics this book portrays) but I'm still reluctant to give it a second chance since i've absolutely hated every. single. story. written by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, I just feel like he writes about things that aren't worth telling, Or he stretches somewhat interesting stories in a way that's to convoluted. I always say it this way, I reached the end of the book and kept wondering when the story will start. Well that's my little unnecessary rant.
And for any non-avid reader considering reading A hundred days of solitude, just keep in mind that it is not an easy read, it's super dense as far as I can remember and Garcia Marquez's writing style isn't the most easy to follow.
Sorry for any grammar atrocities, not a native english speaker.
@@nonameyet_7786 That's weird... I am Peruvian and to me Garcia Marquez's writing makes me feel like an older person telling me their stories, like when we latinos engage in conversation with an older adult and they share their unbelievable, fantastic lives and funny anecdoctes. So it is an easy read, besides the obvious confusion with the family names being too similar, because it feels like a conversation. Of course sometimes it looks like Garcia "goes off track", but truly it is just him expanding the world of the town of Macondo and making us feel like we live in it and know the unique history of it and its people.
Perhaps you did not like it because truly insane things happened but everyone treated it as normal (because that is what realismo mágico, the literature movement, is about). So even, for example, when one character ascended to heaven no one batted an eye 😅
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
Everything you said about Dark is 100% correct. The talk about Dark, sometimes even to use names and relations just takes away from a lot of the shock you would get from watching it for the first time. It's also ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. I LOVE LOVE this show with everything i have.
Is _Dark_ kinda in the same vain as _Lost_ ?
@@rahbeeuh Dark is not like lost ….The mystery element comes from the character perspective than from them trying to be mysterious… like they’re not trying to go (oh what’s in the hutch) …the payoffs feel satisfying and if you’re paying attention like…epic…because you can technically figure it out but you have to think about What do you actually know….And there’s not a single red herring the entire time.. They don’t have to miss direct you they just tell an epic story and your along for the ride… it also has a really good English dub sooo
I can see how some people would see that them explaining it won't do it justice. I liked it but i didn't love it as much as alot of other people did
Just like a glitch in matrix .
@@sancheznegi Or a message from the other side
The Glee rant is so relatable.
It never got better. It was so cringe worthy and just frustrating. And RAS didn't ruin Glee. It was already bad. The writing was bad and never went anywhere. The characters were all annoying. None of them had any redeeming qualities by the end of the show or in the beginning. Yes the cast is all talented, but it really doesn't matter because it has one of the worst cast of characters I've ever seen on a tv show. The romantic relationships were all toxic and unbearable. Nothing mattered or went anywhere.
And 100% Lea Michele is worth no one's attention anymore, especially when Rachel is the worst and most hypocritical character on the show. She never at any point grows as a person or gets punished for the horrible shit she does. In fact, she gets rewarded every time. She doesn't get the solo for once? She eventually gets it. Mercedes does a better audition than her? No problem. You two can share the role so we don't get Rachel upset. She messes up her audition to NYADA? No problem. She complains until she gets another chance, which would never happen in Drama School. She'd get blacklisted. She finally gets to NYADA and doesn't take criticism from the staff there? No problem. She'll just get the role in Funny Girl anyway. Oh what's that you say? She threatens her chances with Funny Girl by going to audition for a tv show by the producer of FG and then directly after that threat, she gets the tv show? And THEN once the tv show flops, she just gets let back into the show anyway? Rachel Berry is NOT a character. She is the worst character on the entire show and has no growth or development or learns anything for her shitty diva behavior. Exactly like her actor. Rachel could have had amazing development. But no. She HAS to be rewarded for everything she does and never suffers any consequences for anything.
Lea Michele should not be given attention anymore after her years of tyranny to her fellow cast and crew. She should not be praised for her talent. Talent means nothing if you treat people like she has treated people for years. She unlike Rachel needs to be held accountable and have that accountability be followed through. And I genuinely hope that whenever Hollywood is dumb enough to hire her for a project, the project will get cancelled. She does not deserve to have a career anymore if she is going to continue to treat people like this.
You're right. You shouldn't have to endure that, Dylan. Take care of yourself.
How you feel about Glee is how I feel about Agents of SHIELD.
@@thoomolong I think that's valid.
She was also a big step back for Jewish representation, especially when portraying teenagers. I remember Jewish girls who resembled her in love of musicals and outfit getting picked on because of it
@@elisabethschmerzler963 That's really unfortunate.
The best part of knowing all of the shit Rachel got away with in the show was that one time someone in a Broadway show left abruptly for a tv show and I could point and say “damn, they pulled a Rachel Berry”
After watching this video, I went straight to my laptop and started watching Dark. You sounded so enthusiastic that it kind of fascinated me. I'm actually from Germany, but somehow I never got the hype back when Dark was released (Dark is internationally very popular but not as much in Germany itself). I watched all 3 seasons in the last 2 weeks. My tip to all those who haven't watched Dark yet: Watch Dark! ;)
should i watch it in german with subtitles or just the english dub?
@@v4uon Definitely with subtitles. The dialogue in german makes such a beautifully grim atmosphere it’s beautiful!
@@Cocktailkatze alright, thanks! looking forward to it
It it very violent? 👀
@@Cocktailkatze see i wish someone had told me that. i watched till like season 2 with english dub and then i tried out the german version and oml it was infinitely better. i just don't think these types of shows should have english dubs
dw you're not the only one who doesn't want you to talk about greys anatomy. my sister has watched all seasons, multiple times, in two different languages, and even just hearing the words greys anatomy brought back wayyyy too many memories oh lord
Lmao
Omfg, how many hours has she spent on this
You should do what Dylan is in Trouble does and say if you recommend a show/movie if will make you less likely to review it! It works for him and most of us will tell people who recommend to stop recommending! It's really fun!
Naaaah let Dylan keep his thing and I actually like this style, he kinda reviewed the shows without reviewing it 😅👌🏻
is that a recommendation?
@@lukagrdzelishvili lmao yes but no, it's not a recommendation of a video he could do
He said this on his instagram many times
Completely agree with Dylan there. Plus he's said that he enjoys reading comments and that would be a bore if they were all just recommendations for different stuff instead of actually talking about the video itself.
I took you advice on DARK, just finished season 1 and I had to come here to say THANK YOU!! This show IS amazing!!
Honestly the greys anatomy rant hit really closed to home. When I moved into my first apartment one of the first things me and my roommate did together was try to watch greys anatomy, she had already started it an was on season 5 so I just joined her at that point cause I wasn't willing to go back and watch five seasons and the plot seemed simple enough to follow with the occasionally clarification from my roommate. We watched about 4-5 episodes a night every night at our peak watching rate, occasionally taking breaks to do other and watch other things if more interesting content got dropped. But still at that rate we only made it to the 12th season after two and a half months we completely gave up on the show at that point because there was just no end in sight and somehoe that made everything seem just really bleak
I stopped at season 10 too lol
@Ana Pie Seasons 1 - 10 we’re the only good ones. The rest aren’t good (Except 12, 11 wasn’t good).
I stopped at season 8-10(?), I was bored without lexie and mark
@@ultraxim true honestly Callie and Arizona's relationship falling apart was really the last straw for me personally but the lack of Mark and Lexie also really sucked. I didn't even watch the plane crash episode cause I didn't want to actually watch it happen
@@ultraxim yeah their deaths were a big reason I stopped
Dark is quite literally one of the best shows ever made. I don’t think any video essay really could capture the beauty and complexity of the show. It really is an experience. I’m so excited for the creator’s new show!
I would really love to see a video on the handmaids tale as it's one of my favorite shows but I also understand kinda with the point u made about 13 reasons why that a show that dark can't have many jokes but everything from the cinematography to the acting is always 100
I second this very hard !!
I’d watch anything from those creators. Literally. You tell me they made next season of Emily in Paris, i will drop everything to watch
Dark has to be the best Netflix original of all time. It’s an elite plot driven show with no lose ends, great cinematography, music and characters.
I just want to correct you on something...Katherine Heigl was labeled as a brat, ungrateful, and hard to work with, just because she spoke up about how harsh the working conditions were on Grey's Anatomy, which they were.
No, she was labelled ungrateful because she refused to be submitted for a nomination at the golden globes saying her character development wasnt good enough …
And Ellen Pompeo came out in support of her comments recently as well.
I think it is awful what happened to her, you have creeps like Jared Leto who act in the worst ways to their fellow actors but still gets hired with zero repercussions
@@rosek5211 that sounds like a stupid thing to blacklist someone from Hollywood over TBH
@@KariIzumi1 I’m not saying this is the reason she was blacklisted, but it’s part of the reason they saw her as ungrateful. I think she was blacklisted because there were rumours about her being a diva on sets of her movies but I don’t know if it’s true tho
@@rosek5211 given how often "difficult to work is" ends up being code for "speaking up against abuse" in Hollywood, I dunno how much of that I take at face value. As Ninja pointed out, Lea Michele is a confirmed diva bully that no one besides Ryan Murphy ever had a good word to say about and still manages to find work.
"and now, im 27 years old, my back hurts, i pay bills, i have to figure out what to eat everyday, I STILL HAVENT CAUGHT LUGIA" this is too real lmaooo

Damn the jump from GOT to Glee was VERY not expected LMAOO
Also, you're right about AHS. I like AHS, but when my friends ask me how I feel about it, I always say 'it's okay overall'. There's no excitement when I say it.
I genuinely like it, but is it 10 seasons worth it? Absolutely not. If you're stuck in it, well, you can leave. It's an anthology series anyway. So, new seasons, new story.
I only watched half of the first season and never went back to it because it got really dull/dumb pretty fast for me.
Right
I'm an AHS shill, but it has seasons of such wildly varying quality.
I’m in a toxic relationship w AHS. No matter how bad it gets, I always come back. I think it’s because I’m nostalgic for its peak era (s1-3) and want to recapture the feelings of watching a new season as it’s airing.
@@marywallace3378 yeah when whey tried to recapture it during apocalypse, it was a mess, 'okay' at best IMHO
Totally agree about Dark, even though I'd love to see people talking about it more and give it the amount of hype it deserves it's hard to even talk about it without giving away a billion spoilers
You can't even say what genre it is without ruining the experience for people who didn't watch it
@@radhiadeedou8286 Even as somebody that won't watch it (I spend time on youtube) I would much rather air on the side of caution with spoiler heavy shows.

Dark is a good example of proper show planning no unnecessary extra seasons , each episode is purposeful its 3 seasons but feels like limited series they kept it short and sweet

I'm actually kind of surprise you mentioned American Horror Story. Personally I only watched it up to the 1984 season and I can tell you this, Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange certainly make the show worth watching. Having said, I totally understand the lack of Interest. The fandom for the show really does kind of generate more of a "oh yeah, that was cool" vibe and even I never got super into it but there are some good seasons in there. If you did randomly decide to check it out, the first three seasons are considered to be the best
"Jennifer Lang"? You mean Jessica Lange?
I will say that the reception that "American Horror Stories" (the spin-off) got made me discover how much of a fanbase there is. So many complaints about fanservice, especially in the first and last episodes of season 1.
Funny cause I stopped after season 3
i was a massive ahs fan in the earlier seasons, but the show kinda.......... lost me. most seasons i watched until the middle. the only ones i really, really loved and can safely say i recommend are hotel and house (but ik one of the fan favorites was asylum, which i thought was mid at most).
@@VicenteTorresAliasVits thanks for pointing that out lol it was late when I wrote this comment
The fact that we share opinions in 13 reasons why makes me feel sane again. Everyone around me thought it was actually good and I couldn't hate it more.
season 1 is very heavy but okay i guess, the other 3 seasons of that show are unbearable especially s.2, they just stretching out the plot
The people around you are liars
@@danielrubinstein896 I saw few reviews talking about 13 reasons why in depth and from what I've seen, S1 may have been heavy, but it was also mixed in with too many flaws, especially with Hannah? Is that her name?

I have started watching Grey's Anatomy recently because my mom and I like to watch shows together and I thought.. You know. 18 seasons. That'll take a while before we have to hunt for a new one.
I LOVE THE SHOW, but I could honestly never imagine starting it just because you want to make a video about it. It's a massive show with many things happening and it would be exhausting. So good call on that!
Same. I’m currently on season 6 and I’m enjoying it so far. Although I heard people say it goes downhill in a couple of seasons more. It also doesn’t help that they ruined so many characters arcs. There are so many questionable writing choices 😔
9:45 I had no idea Roberto was involved in Glee… but wow, that makes so much sense 😂😂
Glee is one of those shows you had to be there to experience and it's very telling that nobody has even attempted to make a crappy remake of it. I tried rewatching it last year and I just found myself skipping over so many parts, mainly involving Rachel, and that's literally half the show in the earlier seasons (the good part) and she only gets more screen time as the seasons go by. I have so much nostalgia for Kurt, Mercedes, Santana, and Quinn that I don't mind mind skipping around. I couldn't imagine watching Glee for the first time in 2022.
I have to agree plus learning
how terrible lea Michelle was to the cast while doing the show totally killed whatever chance I had of rewatching this show
Watched it for the first time in summer 2020, and my obsession is still going strong, but as everyone says those who love glee are simultaneously the ones who despise it the most. When I rewatch every couple of months I do skip season 1 because I've seen it enough to know what happens, and I largely skip s4 and 5 as well. It's just a comfort thing for me now, and I do appreciate that most of the time it's subpar at best, its just got a weird nostalgia and the songs are very easy to listen to, they're all my school disco songs from my young childhood.
My mom got me into glee during the first season. I’m the same age as the characters and loved it. They should have ended it in season 3 with half the main cast going off to university/their post high school lives. Even my mom, who got me into the show, stopped watching after season 2 and mostly just tuned in to watch the musical parts.
What you said about Dark is spot on. I watched s1 and tried to get my friends to watch it but it was incredibly hard to get them into it... because you basically can't tell them anything, every information truly is a spoiler. I strongly advise anyone who hasn't seen it to do so, it's magnificent. As a German, I am so happy that this is a show that is so readily available to so many people all over the world since many movies and shows that I consider to be at least as good as Dark are not. It is not only a great show, it is also a great representation of a German style of movie/show.
oh really? i've had a few friends try to get me into the show, aside from them i have heard good reviews for it i've just never gotten around. i am interested in what you mean by german styles of media, are they usually very intricate? and though they're inaccessible, what other recommendations do you have?
@@bee-sw6hw it is amazing, it is a masterpiece. I've never heard anyone who watched it say it was bad. But I'm gonna say this, if you're the kind of person who likes to get invested in a show you'll love it, if you're the kind of person who only watches movies and TV shows to turn their brain off and be entertained after a long day it's probably not for you
@@bee-sw6hw It's a bit difficult to explain but Dark is very similar to German crime shows and movies (and to a certain extent, Scandinavian crime productions, though they tend to be even darker and brutal than German ones). Germany looooves them, our broadcasting stations are constantly producing and releasing new ones. They are a huge thing here. If you're interested in reading more about it, Tatort the tv show is probably the best place to start. And Dark is very similar to the way they are structured and shot and a lot of the people who have worked on Dark's production have previously worked on German crime shows (most of the actors as well). German crime shows are usually very dark (haha), intricate and have a certain brutal element to it without being too in your face. They don't shy away from showing pretty much anything, I think Dark even opens with a s*x scene? S*x and nudity are pretty standard here. The psyche of humans is also usually a pretty important part of the story too, might sound weird but there's usually always someone with depression, addiction or ptsd. Other than that Dark also has a similar style in terms of camera angles. lighting and filming locations. Idk if I explained that well enough... Unfortunately, as I mentioned, a lot of German crime productions are only available in German without subtitles. But afaik some people have subbed Tatort and Polizeiruf 110 episodes and posted them online and you might even find a few on Amazon Prime or Netflix. A lot of shows and movies I really like unfortunately don't even have an English wikipedia entry, like Der Fall Collini :( It's a shame, I think many people would enjoy them. Netflix might have a tag for German shows though but I don't know what is available internationally unfortunately but it is probably worth a try :) PS: sorry for the long response!
The crazy thing about the Katherine Heigl thing is that she wasn't even being a brat, she was just the only one willing to speak up. Ellen Pompeo did an interview last year talking about the conditions on set and how she was bullied by production. They really should've ended the show a long time ago.
Plus actresses being branded "difficult" is a long tactic in Hollywood to devastate if not destroy their careers
What I understand from this video is that there is still hope for Arcane :)
heh :))
That show deserves a video
Maybe he'll like that one too much as well 😬😔
Dark and Arcane are serious masterpieces. 2 series that are pure perfection.
being a fan of glee actually ruined so many years of my life because the show itself, the cast relationships and the fandom were so painfully toxic that it made me feel very anxious towards the show, but it also took over my life, so all that went on in that little glee universe actually took a toll on my mental health. i don't think it's particularly bad, but i get it, i really do. and my life has been much better without thinking about it lol
You are not alone , my adolescence was all blood sweat tears about glee, glee drama , crazy gleeks and too much music lyrics knowledge for a brain
As a very latecomer to the Gilmore Girls party, I think the most interesting/talk worthy part is the absolutely bizarre writing choices.
I know getting this answered a year later is a long shot. But out of curiosity, what absolutely bizarre writing choices are you thinking of?
For the record, this is not a baiting question at ALL lol. There are just so many bizarre choices to choose from that I’m always interested to see which ones immediately come to people’s minds haha.
@@emilyfisher7060 pretty much anything regarding the love interests of the two lorelais feels like it was written on random and they break up and get together and break up again and get together again around a million times throughout all the seasons and at certain point it just starts feeling like shock value
@@emilyfisher7060 Not the person you're replying to but - Luke's long lost daughter storyline. The writing for Luke beginning halfway thru season 6 (I still dont think the character of Luke was ever recovered tbh and that includes the revival). Christopher having magic money randomly was super lame. I think there's a lot of interesting ground to cover for the writing choices behind season 6 and 7, (and the revival) particularly the drama of the showrunners not renewing their contract for season 7, and ending season 6 (with Lorelai and Christopher) in such a petty way, that seemed like a 'fuck you' or spite toward fans as much as it was intended toward the CW execs who didnt pay Amy and Dan Palladino more money, or whatever their beef was. I actually really like most of season 6 and I think the writers who took over for season 7 did a great job, tbh considering the circumstances... (that is as far as unpopular GG opinions). Anyway cheers, just found this youtuber and was looking for the gilmore girlies in comments
When Dark finished i was empty and couldn’t consume new content . I was heartbroken in the best way possible because you get so immersed and invested. Masterpiece
This! Dark set the new norm and till this date and only a handsome of few show were on the same level for me.
I love DARK and I agree so much! You can't tell people about this show without giving a major spoiler away. It would be impossible tbh.
I don't know about you guys but after watching that stupid show I was mindfucked and didn't know what happened in that series. maybe I'm dumb af to understand the plot but I HATE it. I had to watch youtube videos and read articles to even understand what was going on, I did this for every goddamn episode just for the sake of completing it smh
@@Mr.DISRESPECT in my opinion, that's the beauty of it because it makes a lot more sense even you re-watch it because you pick up on these hidden details that put things into perspective but to each their own. i mean it's a critically acclaimed and revered show for a reason
@@naomipandey3048 No, it is not fun after watching 1hour episode and then again watching a video explaining wtf just happened in it.
I watch Series for entertainment, not to get stressed out. And this one was a pain in my ass. When people recommend others to watch this, they should also tell them that this is a content and research-heavy series.
I hate people who told me to watch this without context.
@@Mr.DISRESPECT lmao if you really wanted to watch the show for entertainment and not thinking you should have quit after the first episode: even that was creepy and confusing enough. i don't understand why you even bothered to watch one hour long videos if you didn't want to understand it. plus if you actually waited to watch the next episode instead of watching these explanation videos you actually would have understood what's going on. it's not others' jobs to tell you everything about a show. be grateful that you have people actually recommending shows to you rather than hating them for introducing you to a show they think you might like. there's nothing wrong with watching purely simple and entertaining tv but there's no reason to walk around pretending that others can like thought provoking and mindful shows.
@@naomipandey3048 Why do I really give a damn about completing this?: F*cking peer pressure. But I wouldn't change the fact that you can't watch this without knowing the plot or objective of the story. Maybe this is not even meant for me cuz after rewatching it with my GF I still don't understand what's going on most of the time, Cant even complain lol
The glee rant killed me. From his calm explanations about GoT to his insane dramatic Glee rant. Shit was hilarious. Can you seriously consider making a spoiler filled review of Dark?
"i have chocolate to eat my guy, have you seen my cabinet" is now my go-to excuse for not doing things (like the paper i'm procrastinating on by watching this video lol)
your anger towards 13rw is so relatable. it makes my blood BOIL whenever I see someone still hype this shit up. there's barely anything in media that's as harmful as this
Isn’t established titles a scam?
Yes, in every way you could think of.
3 things :
- The Glee and Grey’s Anatomy rants were hilarious 😂
- I kinda want to watch Dark now
- I was expecting one of the show to be supernatural (or criminal minds, dunno why) for some reason ? Because it’s heckin’ long ? (Personally, I tried twice watching supernatural. I gave up both times around the same spot, aka middle season 8)
Oh you absolutely need to watch DARK. I suggest watching it in original language even if you like dubbed things. You will absolutely love this show.
i d get
I’m old enough to had been there when Supernatural first came out.
That pilot episode, and others like the Scarecrow were _amazing_
I watched that show religiously every week.
I stopped watching after the end of Season 6.
I read online the producers said the ‘Main plot’ of the show had ended, and they were just going to keep going for fan service until it ran out.
That didn’t interested me at all.
Color me surprised when I learned the show ended after 15 seasons!
Your mistake for supernatural was trying to go past season 5. Thats the true ending nothing more exists
I agree with everything you except for supernatural, it has 15seasons but got boring I the only downfall of it is its season finale but its such a good show it aired when I was 3 I started watching when I was 13 and I loved every minute of it
Absolutely agree with 13 reasons why. Just read the book, it was a whole lot more impactful and concise. No dumb shock value tricks. Also for AHS, the only season worth watching is season one. All the other seasons were either fine or went on wayyyy too long lol. It also is not great so binge, it’s much better on tv. But do whatever videos you like! I will definitely take your recommendation for Dark.
Nah, season one of AHS isn't worth watching.
With AHS, every season has several points, often mid-episode, where you feel like it should just end, there's nothing more to say - and suddenly, there's a new plot point and it's not exciting at all.
You mean season 2
@@sammiller6631 really season 3 is the best for me and it makes the others seasons esp 10 watchable .l really think its bad but i feel like i like the actors involved and its like a theatere sketch troop they take big swings and often big misses . i have no excuse for watching the most recent season but did I? yes . the best part was a child actress that didnt suck she wore and ate the scenery and other characters and actors need to get on her level . the plot though......we lost that along the way
@@itowilltube Season 3 was the best
Dark is an incredible series that I feel a lot of people in the US don't give a chance because it is in German, but it is A-MA-ZING. I'd give anything to erase it from my memory just to experience it again, and therefore I'm sad that Ninja can't do a video on it, but I understand why 100%.
Just go watch it.
Love whatever you choose to do! You're vids are the only way I would ever watch the teen/drama shows, so I have no expectations but love what you do. You gotta take care of yourself so you do you!
*your vids
I knoow! I watched Sabrina and that's how I found the channel, but I'll never watch the shows. I don't watch horror movies, but I consume videos on them like a starving kid in a candy factory.
Look, I have never watched a single episode of Sabrina or Riverdale or that universe. But I have watched ALL his videos on them, multiple times. They are glorious!
i totally get your point about glee. that show is exhausting and i say that as someone who watched it recently and enjoyed it 💀
Not me just fist-bumping the air and yelling yes when you said That 70's Show is your fave sitcom lol, I love that show so so so much!!!!!
the part about gilmore girl was very painful for me since it's my comfort show but i get you're point and u're totally right, nothing special about it that's why i love it
I loved Gilmore girls but season six made Rory unbearable as a character and made me mad lucky in the last season she had more sence
I think in its time Gilmore Girls _was_ fairly special, actually, because it was a show that was heavily led by and focused on women and the relationships between women. It was about mothers and daughter, generational dynamics, and female friendships. It was about people’s relationships with each other, with the world, and with themselves, and it didn’t feel the need to be about more than that. It also didn’t feel the need to invent some big, dramatic stakes to pin everything to. It was about all the mundane little struggles and long-term low-simmering difficulties of life. It valued women just living and being, enough to make a show about it.
Yes, in hindsight it was overly white and overly hetero. But 1. It was a product of its time, and 2. The fact that it was overly white and overly hetero doesn’t actually negate that, at least for the first three or four seasons, it was an excellently realized story that was good for what it was.
I think the story about how Where You Lead got rerecorded to become the theme song of the show really captures what was so beautiful and praise-worthy about the show:
“Goffin (Carole King’s daughter) told BuzzFeed News in a phone interview that her mother was not singing that song much anymore because it had these kind of ‘stand by your man’ lyrics and she wasn’t feeling it anymore. […] But with a switch of the lyrics, the addition of King's daughter, and the inspiration of Gilmore Girls, "Where You Lead" suddenly had brand new significance. […] Instead of being a "stand by your man" ballad, "Where You Lead" became associated with female friendship, sisters, mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and so many other platonic yet meaningful women-centric relationships. To Goffin, the song's now about how "there is no distance that is too far to go be with your child.”
🥺❤
Me and my mom used to love it and I tried rewatching it earlier but I just couldn't after that episode about Rory and the tree.
@@Forlif3rs Rory was becoming insufferable before season 6
@@Forlif3rs season six Rory was awful, but in rewatching the show in its entirety it's not that surprising. Everyone in her world powdered her ass and told her she was the bestest person evar except Mitchell, who was the first person in the entire show who didn't kiss Rory's ass and nothing prepared her for rejection.
And the absolute worst part of it all? The follow up special on Netflix completely proved him right. She did one whole article and absolutely nothing else after college and thought herself too good to show up prepared to the one company that was willing to work with her. Season 6 could've been a temporary setback where Rory found a different passion or figured out why journalism and came back more passionate than ever, but no. :(
The 3rd season of Daredevil being divisive? I feel like the 2nd season was by far more split in critical reception. Most reviews I've seen love season 3. Daredevil being the best Marvel show still to this day I think warrants some praise :)
Exactly!
If you think about it, Daredevil mirrors the Dark Knight trilogy almost perfectly.
Season 1 is fantastic and the perfect origin like Batman Begins, Season 2 is pretty great as well although it is a little messy like Dark Knight Rises, and Season 3 is a legit masterpiece like Dark Knight.
Season 3 is probably my second favorite season of television, it’s literal perfection imo
Yeahhh i remember i didn't love the second season and after revisiting i loved it but lots of ppl i know still hate on it. But season 3?? Specially the 2 last episodes? Art.
Moon Knight and AOS: Are we a joke to you?
@@TF2Fan101 haven’t seen AOS but DD is leagues ahead of MK despite how great its been
Thirteen reasons why is the perfect example of studios cashing in and destroying actually fairly decent source material. I recently reread the book and can definitely say the general tone and message is worlds away from what the show turned into.
Okay, you've convinced me to watch Dark. I've heard literally nothing about it but this endorsement is definitely compelling.
Take me as someone who’s going to vouch for some, not all, seasons of AHS, especially Asylum being the most insane thing I’d seen on television at the time.
Definitely worth the watch, even if you don’t want to cover it on a video.
I can’t believe he likes sarah paulson & still won’t watch it lol! She’s one of my favvvvv actors, along with evan peters! For acting alone, every season is worth one watch, in my opinion.

I despise Murphy and Falchuk as creators
@@lemonwhxre why? murphy made nip/tuck which was pretty good
Amazing more like it.
Every season I watch after Asylum I haven't enjoyed as I did with Asylum. It's brutal as it's enthralling. It's Jessica Lange best performance in the series.
I thought you might burst a blood vessel with the Grey's rant. Epic!🤣🤣🤣
Agree with everything you said on Dark. It's the only show (I ever watched) that just felt like a perfectly crafted story from start to finish. Not a minute of screen time was wasted in that show and everything came together so well. Which is truly a feat considering the kind of story it is the show could've easily become a confusing, plot-hole littered mess in less skilled hands.
Try 12 monkeys tv series, it's a masterpiece perfectly crafted, just don't think you will watch the movie.
You should watch breaking bad

@@Mr.DISRESPECT yes, you're dumb, I had no issues understanding it
watch Succession
I'm one of the people who asked about Dark. It's also probably my favourite show, easily the most hard hitting to the last 15 years of my life. I watched it while I was living IN Germany at the time, something that happened very suddenly and was very turbulent. It means something very deep to me, and I can understand why you wouldn't want to make a video about it. I have no idea how I'd even discuss it, especially given the fact that after the first 10 seconds, it's all spoilers. To accurately describe it without telling anyone anything, I can only say, have you ever seen something so beautiful that it breaks your heart? That's Dark.
13:43 it’s funny how you mention Grey’s Anatomy and how long it takes because I decided to binge it in 2018 when there was only like 14 seasons available on Netflix. I was super pregnant with my daughter and couldn’t do much at the time so it was the perfect time to watch it. Anyways, I was about a month into my binge and my husband came downstairs and told me he thinks I need to stop watching Grey’s because it’s too depressing and making the baby not want to come.
I'm not sold on Dark issue. I would absolutely watch Your heavy-spoiler video about Dark where You praise it for the entire hour.
Hi! I am an Italian, who moved in Germany almost 6 years ago. "Dark" was the first series I've managed to watch in German, so it has an added special connection to me. It's nice to hear you like it too so much! 😊
I'm actually German and well yes it's great that he likes it, because I do too, but as a German Girl myself I has to say the acting isn't as good as the writing. because no one in Germany speaks like this Teanagers in this series...😅💁🏽♀️
Yeah, I noticed it too confronting with how my friends here talk. 😅 But I thought it was a regional thing..
Concerning the acting, you are right anyway: some of the young actors are clearly unexpirienced and stiff. But the tone of the series is asking a lot from them.. In "small" countries as Germany and Italy there is not such a broad pool of wannabe young actors like in the US (+all english speaking countries). There is just less probability to find genious young actors.
...believe me, young italian actors are sooooo cringy sometimes. 🙈

As a person that also watched (maybe suffered through) 13 Reasons Why, everything beyond Season 1 is contrived trash. Though I would've loved to see you rip and tear through the entire show, I get why you don't want to.
Exactly my thoughts. He spoiled his opinion in other videos before so I was hoping he'll do a rant video about it someday, but actually I understand why he doesn't want to give it more attention than it already had. It's crap.
Honestly yeah, i want a 2 hour + vid on 13RW same as his Riverdale one
Lmao, I didn't even finish it. I'm tryna finish it now because I hate leaving shows unfinished but most of the time I'm like 'Why did that happen? That was so confusing for the character to do, it came out of nowhere????'
I did like the first season tho and the book (do people even know it was a book???) was interesting too. There wasn't much to the book (if you're interested in reading it, the first season was based on that and the rest of the show has nothing to do with it), it's mainly just a really sad tale about a girl whose life fell to pieces. I guess I liked it, it did make me really sad tho lol
@@nobodyisnotsomebody I just never understood why that show had more than one season. It served its purpose and got people to “join the conversation” (whatever said “conversation” was); the story ended there, there was no need for more. Netflix just capitalized off its gigantic success and came up with a completely different story that had nothing to do with its original aim.
@@julietafernandez6350 Exactly. It always annoys me when the show will go off without following the book as it tends to ruin a lot of things. I never really realised it was capitalism before for some reason but you're deffintly right
Ohmygod thank you, finally someone said what I’ve been thinking. Everyone I know has always begged me to watch Grey’s Anatomy and I just cannot be fucked man. It’s too long, and medical dramas get so boring so quickly. I have no idea how it’s still going
I watched the last season of GoT with my parents (they started in 2016-2017, I started at 2018 cause I was way too young earlier) so having seen the reaction of both generations, my friends and my parents (who don't do internet culture): the GoT fanbase is dead. We were all so disappointed in the end, even watching the few clips while you were talking about it made me sad. I might watch the spin off, but it will never be as hyped or loved as the original, because that god forsaken eighth season left a bitter taste in everyone's mouth.
Can't really say the GoT fanbase is dead maybe the shows fanbase

Some things are so good it would take literal dozens of hours to throoughly exAmine and explain
Some things are so god awful it would take literally dozens of hours to thoroughly explain
you were right when you said that people who have watched the show will understand why you wouldn't want to make a video on DARK. It really is an incredible tv series. Very to the point, succinct and crisp. The concept was so good, the acting even more and the plot-twists: just amazing. And that's all I can even talk about it. What a good piece of entertainment!
As a Grey's Anatomy fan, I totally agree with you, the show is way too long to be worth watching and talking about unless you absolutely adore it.
Honestly, not doing videos on Glee or Grey's Anatomy is self-care at this point.
I can still watch That 70s Show, even sober, and laugh myself silly
I think the reason why dark is a chef's kiss is because it was not hurried. Every plot, events, everything connects to the point where every episode feels like a mystery. Kudos to the writer and for the team who didn't milk it too much and end it with a flawless three season. It was polished and the good things just don't stop.
I totally agree with what you said about Dark. I'd only add how INSANELY GREAT the casting is (although giving any further details on why the casting is genius would be a HUGE spoiler...).
Seriously, guys, go watch Dark.

I watched Dark and I know exactly what you mean by great casting. And I couldn't agree more! :D
The casting directors and makeup department came together to make it all make 100% sense. Smartest casting decisions ever, smarter than casting RDJ as Tony stark
“1 of 12 people who watch HOTD” 😭😭 so funny hearing that now lol
If 13 Reasons Why was a single season with some modicum of tact, maybe it would have had some merit. Instead, it essentially became a sensationalist soap opera that the creators expected the audience to take seriously. I agree about the cast, they were all very endearing.
Yeah I remember saying to people after the first season ended that it should only have one season because I didn’t see where it would go after that and if it did continue that it’d probably only get worst and look at that it did. Season 2 wasn’t that bad but you can see signs that the show was starting to fall apart. The rest of the seasons no excuses at all, those were just plain out bad. They killed whatever good will people had left for the show and I no longer defend it when people say they hate it because I see why. I think the show could’ve left behind a very potent legacy if it only had one season but they screwed it up.
@@JonJayAllDay Through its retcons and contrived use of Hannah, I feel like season 2 was a betrayal of the first. It raised some interesting talking points such as personal accountability, flaws in the justice system, and the ambiguous nature of the truth, yet it went well out of its way to make characters more complex and redeemable than previously established. It was clear the creators had no idea how to continue from the first season, and the changes made Hannah especially difficult to understand.
Ending the video with Milo Ventimiglia is just chef’s kiss 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Someone clearly didn't read the fine print with Established Titles. It's a total scam and false advertising.
idk why ppl request FRIENDS of all things? Like whether you love it or hate it I can’t imagine it would make a very long video? I love it but I’ll just be able to say how funny I find most of the characters are with a few nitpicks of the storylines in later seasons.

You’re so right, The Originals is miles better than TVD. More interesting, less annoying characters, more engaging plot points and it didn’t drag on and on. It ended when it needed to without overstaying its welcome. Also there was barely any teenage bullshite lol

In my opinion Glee and AHS have similar strengths and flaws. They have some truly great moments, but there’s a lot random crap to get through for those moments. AHS is definitely more consistent, but it has a tendency to introduce a theme or idea and never investigate it.

@@noisylala4986 came here to say it.
I swore off any show with Ryan Murphy's involvement after Glee because this is a long standing pattern with him. I really, really, reeeeeeeeally like the premise of Glow but I didn't want to get my heart broken when the Season Two Slump of his kicked in.
@@KariIzumi1 So true!! It's the lack of consistency that does it for me. He creates beautiful characters to ruin their whole development in one episode or in the next season🙄
@@noisylala4986 *Popular* may be the only exception to this, but probably because the show got axed after it's second season.
That show was pretty much *Glee* without the musical numbers, from the butch-looking teacher who made everyone's lives miserable to the cheerleaders running the school to the plot where the parents of two kids from opposite sides of the popularity war get married. I have to honestly wonder how many of Glee's stories were meant for that show, given the commonalities.
@@noisylala4986 that’s why I enjoy more his short series ! Like American crime stories and scream queens. I like his touch but I agree with you as well
As a big fan of Dark, I completely agree with the spoiler argument. My German boyfriend suggested to watch the show, because everyone here is super proud of it (which is well deserved) and I had no idea about the plot, nothing. And it worked wonders... i never anticipated liking it THIS much. I would still love a video about it just to have a reason to experience the plot one more time... it was too good, I want more Dark content 😩
Wanted to see if The 100 was on that list. Very excited and very hopeful to see if it's in the lineup for a future video! Also I watched 1899 like a couple months ago and was on the fence about Dark, but i guess not anymore 😄
I can't agree with you MORE about DARK, it's my #1 show EVER, followed by Breaking Bad and Peaky Blinders (now that I've seen the final episode). DARK is an ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE of a show
I’d love to know what you think about Our Flag Means Death! It’s a show that has impacted me beyond belief since it came out. I’m so grateful for it. I of course don’t imagine to ever see a video about it on the channel but if anyone else has thoughts on it I’d love to see your comments :)!
Rowan Ellis just made a 1.5 hour video on it and her analysis is always a fun watch !
oh man i loved ittt!! i came to know about it through Rowan Ellis and i have absolutely no regrets. it has the perfect mix of serious and camp, with an amazingly cute love story, i enjoyed every single second of it and i watched it so fast lol
