I would definitely watch H2O season 4. I’m 22 years old and I still love the show, watched it as a little kid and always felt attracted to mermaids and the ocean, and I think H2O is the most beautiful and best produced series about mermaids.
I'm 28 this year. And still watch it once a year xD this show is perfect to forgot about all adult stuffs.
@@dianeczka1223 24 here lol and started watching it all over again! Love it💕😻I used to pretend I‘m a mermaid too and I‘ve got a special power💁🏼♀️
Same! 25 and still keep rewatching
💯
Nah at this point everyone in this comment section is magically turning 20 or more yrs old💀
I get it. but I still like the idea of having a 4 season. I think a lot of people would love a 4 season. I just love h2o just add water too much I would like to see a continuation some how.
I know right me too
Yeah! I would love to see them back together...
Well mako mermaids is a continuation
@@VALENSlO BBB BBB l
i sure would
Imagine a reboot but with miss Chatham and the original mermaids as the main girls, would absoloutley love that
Omg yesss
She died
@@mas9804 I think she means a reboot where the girls were younger, in the 1950s
that would be so cool
@@mas9804 who died?
I've watched H2O every summer since I was 12. It's honestly a tradition at this point! Definitely one of my comfort shows and I definitely would watch a season 4!
so do I 😂😆
Same, it's a tradition for me too!
Same , Im 20 years old and I still watch this show every time when I wanna relax
I have the same tradition lol
SAME BRUH
I’m almost 30 and I still re-watch this show all the time. It’s so well written. Australian shows are literally the best. I would totally watch a reunion. It would be so cool. Like maybe their children being mermaids because they did the same thing Rikki, Emma, and Cleo and swam in the moon pool on a full moon or something like that
Maybe one of the parents hinted they should… lol
I was always a Rikki kind of girl. And, as someone with ADHD (Neurodovergent) I felt that it was really nice to see a female character like Rikki that had friends and was no-nonsense. Like, she had her guard up, but was shown to have impactful and meaningful relationships despite being a little rough on the edges, or at least perceived that way.
I didn’t get into it until I was in High School, but it was an important show for helping me get out of my shell and be more comfortable with myself, my body, and how I interact to people. So, a HUGE thank you to Cariba Heine for playing Rikki and making H2O a reality.
this is so cool. it’s always super nice seeing people explain why they love/relate to a character. thanku for saying all of that, it made me smile reading it :)
I was always a Cleo girl. ❤️
Username checks out lol
Growing up I always thought Rikki was the 'ditzy' one in the group, but rewatching I've realised she was actually the complete opposite.
I'm a healthy mixture of Al of them I think. But mainly a combo of rikki and cleo
I would love to see season 4 or at least a short reunion movie on where the characters are now. I want to know what happened after the last episode when they graduated. Did Cleo and Lewis get ever married? Did they have children? Did Rikki and Zane get back together? Where is Emma? Is she married with kids? What about Bella and Will?
I am almost 23 and I would still watch it, H2O was one of my favorite TV series in childhood and is still one of my favorite.
I have a heart for this girl. Beautiful and simple
And smart!
Even if not everyone joins back up, I would be interested in more of the lore, in an adult way. How do they handle periods, do they use certain hand sanitizer to wash their hands instead of soap and water (bc water), how would Emma react to Bella and learning about more Moon pools, and would Cleo and Rikki fight about missing/not missing Emma? That kind of stuff.
But even if NONE of that happened….I would love a show about the old mermaids and their full in depth story.
YOU NEED TO BE A WRITER CS WTFF????
@@manitube9844 honestly I feel like a lot of those are questions that a lot of people have. Live I’ve wondered for so long how they wash their habdd
Also it would be so cool for a crossover season between H20 and Mako Mermaids, after discovering about the mermaid world and how the 4 mermaids from H20 aren't just the only mermaids, Rikki invites Cleo, Emma, and Bella into the mako pod and the adventures they'll experience
Yeah me too I am watching it right now actually and I really love rikki she is my favorite but I love emma and cleo to they really good actors
@@theaterdude7772 that would be so good like I hope they do that and make another one I would watch that and the crossover would be so amazing they would learn the same magic spells and new powers from the other mermaids
Once Rikki said "OH NAWR CLEOWR!" and I really like that.
this show honestly raised me. rikki was my personal favourite character and seeing her grow was everything to me, the show was so beautiful and i will continue to rewatch it every year lmao
ya
I think sadly she's right that S4 wouldn't work but they could do like a seperate mini-series of where the girls are now: did Rikki & Zane work things out? Did Cleo & Lewis stay together (the only answer is yes)? Do Emma & Bella meet & how do they react to each other? We got a glimpse of Rikki in Mako Mermaids but I'd like to see what's going on like 15/16yrs later with all of them.
It could be called H2O: Just add more water. They could even explore darker storylines and not just stick to becoming parents or getting a divorce. Maybe the world could catch sight of a mermaid off the coast of mako and that could reunite everyone and spark them checking in to see with eachother if they know about it and begin a journey to find this new mermaid meanwhile rumours about this hunt could spread globally. As they work to track this new mermaid the audience could watch their new & old lives intersect.
Just my rambling opinion.
That's an interesting idea.
I really like this Idea. That would be so cool
Awesome idea
Yeah ! I love this idea and what if they go visiting the mermaid world ?
Yea like how they did with Sabrina the teenage witch on Netflix (just not as dramatic and cheesy) this show w the writers and actors deff could make it work magic 🪄
I still want a season 4 it will be amazing Cariba Heine can even get back together again with Burgess Abernethy awwwwww it will so cute. I am 34 years old and I still watch it
Me I am 33 going to be 34 this year
I’m just 25 but yes I think just the same.
This show was a big part of my childhood! I’m 20 today and I’ll be more than happy to see a season 4. Especially since season 3 ended without Emma.
"Older mermaids" ; but she still looks like a teen. She actually looks like she could be on set rn heading out to Mako.
I'm a 43 year old male and I watch the series with my daughter at least 3 times a year. Probably more if the weather is really bad and we're stuck in the house. The show primarily focused on girls but there are many males that genuinely like the way that the girls interacted with the other males on the show. I know people of different races and backgrounds that also loved the show. I loved the fact that Rikki made an appearance in Mako. That could really open the door up for both the mature and teenage audience. I know that you're trying to get away from the teenage girl image but a reboot with you, the other girls and Mako would really have a positive impact and definitely boost your other careers. Think about how the show gave you other career opportunities. You too Johnathan I definitely can't forget about you 😀
she had to tell the truth her legs hurt lol
I think college age or older for a mermaid show would be cool too. There’s already too many teenage shows out there and I’d be much more interested in their work life as adults.
I would love to see a season 4 of H2O, maybe seeing the girls more mature, dealing with new conflicts. In jobs, maybe with children and still having to hide their mermeid identity. Lots of love from BRAZIL!
I've seen this show many times over. I'm 35 now and I'm currently rewatching it again. There's just something relaxing and comforting about it 😌
I remember there was talk about a movie that was supposed to be released shortly after the series but we never got it
Which was upsetting to us fans because Rikki at the end of the "Mako Mermaids" series mentions her friends coming to meet the mermaid pod and we never got to see that either
I really often wonder if there was not a reboot but a reunion, how many of them would actually come back to do it all again?
There have been plans,but COVID screwed up everything. Everything is so uncertain right now that no one is willing to finance anything.
@@chrisnelmes3786
There was talk years ago about a movie is what I was saying
Now days I understand why nothing is happening but back a good 12 years ago or so we didn't have covid and they were planning a movie but it never officially happened
@@MrMonsterJamFan there actually was,for lack of a better phrase,an actual statement that another season of Mako Mermaids,just before Covid struck. It was hoped to be on the air by the fall of 2021 if all went well.
Well,nothing went well and ,right now no one knows if the new season is delayed or cancelled.It is reasonable to assume most of the cast would have returned,including a few H2o stars as well. One actress,Allie Bertram has since had 2 kids,so it i reasonable to assume she might have had a reduced role on a new season. The new season may still happen,but....well...who knows.Told my kids to prepare for the worst,hope for the best.
There was a movie released on nickelodeon but it was pretty much just episodes bunched together to make it over an hour long from season 1 and they did the same with season 2 and 3 which was very pointless since the episodes had already been aired as part of the seasons final 3/4 episodes
@@chrisnelmes3786 it has been confirmed by netflix mako mermaids was cancelled after season 3 aired back in 2016 so way before covid even entered peoples brains
I'm 24 years old, used to watch H20 as a kid, and since then I have re-watched the show THREE times because it is simply amazing. Honestly, it's my favourite TV show ever, haha!
I'm 29 and I'd watch season 4. Hehehehh
My highschool life in 2012 is not complete without H2O: Just Add Water. The first time I heard the OST I hurriedly searched it on UA-cam back then and the lyric lingers in my memories up until today.
I was 13/14 when the show came out and really loved it and still enjoying it at 27. I’d watch a reboot or sequel!
Would love to see the return of H2O, loved watching it with my daughter. Though a season four might be out of the question, a new total reboot with new mermaids would be fantastic... If some of the origainal cast was to return as older mermaids it would be great to see them, but lets face it most of them have moved on now.
You should check out Mako Mermaids with her.
Idk... Cariba Heine starred in Mako Mermaids and both Phoebe Tonkin and Claire Holt make references to H2O quite regularly and see each other a lot so I don't think they've completely moved on
@@KaelynCav198finally someone else mentioned it. There were zero comments knowing about mako mermaids till I found this one lol, I don't think that series will ever top what h2o did though
If H2O had a season 4 I would definitely watch it
4:42 For the actual question
I’m 21 and I have just rewatched the entire series. I’d be so amazing if the series comes back on screen these days ✨
I would definitely watch a series with them as adults. Sure they "can't go outside" when they're teenagers but as adults I am pretty sure their powers would grow enough to prevent getting wet even by the minimal splash of water, using umbrellas properly and their own powers as an umbrella and waterproof protection with them is just good. And the thing is, this show was good for how feminist it was for its time, with different type of girls that weren't fighting over boys, that weren't pinning over them and losing themselves in the process (maybe Emma a bit but Emma did not really lose herself, did she?). I'd love to see them being adults and reuniting, maybe as Emma's career as a surfer did happen because she learned how to use her cryokinesis to prevent the touch of water onto her skin (it can easily be achieved through that power by dehydrating it when coming close to her skin) and she gets injured she comes back to find a very successful businesswoman Ricky (sorry I dont really remember what they did with Ricky in the spin off XD i don't think I watched it full because of airing complications here), and Cleo being a biologist and together defending Mako island, could connect with the Spin off in a way that they're the protectors and yadayadayada. There is a lot of potential, and while the spinoff sort of ruined heavily some of the lore that the original built, it still could work. I'd still pay to watch it. because I loe this show and yes Maybe I am biased because Ricky was my favorite, but I do like it. And I hope Zane is a great husband and father of their kids and has settled down and maybe even becomes a water creature. Heck it could get dark tones because aimed to an older audience where they face magical threats from the underworld since that's technically connected to the Ocean in most cultures. I dont know there's a lot of things to do with it
I would love a season 4, I watch the 3 seasons over and over with my daughter who grew up watching it. Love it more now than ever.
That sounds so weird but H2O made me LOVE eating fish. I didn't like eating fish before but after that one episode where Emma was obsessed with eating fish I tried it a few more times and became obsessed as well. And still am hahah!
Lol same. Found out I have a mild shellfish allergy XD. Still trying to find a time when I can make or get Lobster Thermidor, it looked so good!
@@ErutaniaRose hahah yeah!
Me too omg I started to eat tuna so often and I still love it
People might judge me for this but I think sardines are good lol especially after that episode with Emma eating them
Thats kinda the opposite message i think.. there is too much fishing and when hunting Tuna, many dolphins and turtles find their deaths all because of men eagerness.. there are so many yummi things that doesnt include animals and we take already so much.. i am a mermaid and i never touch any sea creature
Almost 25 years old and I still remember watching this when I was a child. I rewatch the series at least 3 times in a year. Its weird to see the girls all grown up! Wish they would continue with h2o, best series out there!!!
Rikki was always a character I loved so much! I rewatch this show all the time, if there was a season four I would totally watch it!!!
h2o came out when I was 2 but I watched it when I was 12 until now. I love the show. I am still hoping for a season 4. it's a great show
Unfortunately there wont be a season 4 the actresses are in their 30s now the girl who plays cleo was 15 when they started filiming back in like 2005 / 2006 Emma actress was 16 and Rikki actress was 18 theyre a little old to bring it back so a reboot or reprise of the roles would only work them having kids of their own or a complete reboot with a whole new cast whether it be the same storyline or if it was like a prequel to when julia and miss chatham were mermaids
@@AaronW-ww4ds isn't the actress who plays Maddy in Euphoria 32?
@@AaronW-ww4ds they can have a sequel of them as adults
I never think of any of the "flaws" that she mentions for longer than a second because the show is just so good with its atmosphere and meaning, a great example for young people, smart humor, truly the most beautiful faces and scenery as well. And it just works
I would be so happy if here is a season 4, I just love to watch h2o.... but if there is going to be a reboot I prefer the same Emma, rikki and Cleo because they are so cool together ❤🥰 I really would be glad to see a season 4 coming out
She still looks amazing like she did back in 06-10, she was one of my early crushes as Rikki.
Her smile is still precious and so sweet 💖
I’m rewatching it right now as an adult! Brings back simpler times💙
I think if they was a season 4 it should be like showing them as adults now
My absolute favorite show growing up. I even made my own board game where advancements were made by answering ridiculous trivia questions lol. I'm 21 now and still rewatch it whenever I'm feeling nostalgic or need a pick-me-up. 💙🧡
my two daughters & I discovered the show a few years ago! we've watched the series multiple times. we all love it!
I'm 28 and still watch this show ❤️ I definitely related to Cleo the most, and just like Cleo I definitely needed a Rikki in my life to take me out of my comfort zone. ❤️❤️ I love everything this show brought to my life!
I rewatch this show so much because like she said, it was so inspiring for young people, especially girls. Rikki was always my favorite character. I always identified with her, and I’d love to see another season! We want more! I was so happy when she came back for some of the reboot. It made it really special ❤️. Shows like this are what made me want to become an actor (although I haven’t really done anything yet 🤷♀️) anyway. Thank you Cariba and the cast of H2O for being such an inspiration!
I am currently watching it again after 10 years. I used to watch it when I was 11. Now I'm 21. I just loved it so much growing up 💗💗
As much as I love H2O, I think I have to agree with her. Maybe a reboot wouldn’t work as much either I mean in the reboot they show us how they eventually spread apart and that’s the harsh reality of life. But I mean I feel like the story wouldn’t be as good, especially since production companies would be different as such and the story may be a bit switched.
.Also it would be hard to do as 2/3 of the main actresses have since moved to America
We need to start a competition we all want a reboot!
Rikki was my fave on the series. She's like me in a way, we're loners at times and when we're not thrilled about something, we don't hesitate to make it known
cariba is such an amazing and gorgeous actress
I think that such a return after many years was great! My dream is that one day the fourth season would come out just like that after many years. Cleo, Emma, Rikki in adulthood, after marriage, with children, something beautiful.😍😍😍😍
They don't know how this serie made a impact in my life,always when i go to beach i just swim like mermaids,the way that you swim under water,is the way i do when i swim.
I love H2O ❤ always going to be my favorite show. I actually thought it might be nice if there is H2O reboot making rikki, emma, Bella and cleo all reunite again with Lewis, Zane, ash and will❤
Yo desde pequeño veía la serie, y ahora qué tengo 13 años, sigo viendo la serie. Me marcó, fue mi infancia, esa serie es tan mágica y alegre. Y te da un hermoso mensaje :)
X2 pero tengo 19 casi 20 años jaja, cuando era mas chica le tenia miedo al mar, pero esta serie hizo amarlo, amar a la playa y aprender a nadar
I really wish that they had a season 4 with Emma and Ash coming back, Rikki and Zane get back together, their families finds out the Mermaid secret and at the end the girls becomes normal girls again and go back to their normal lives once again.
She is so genuiely nice and funny and natural! Love her,
It's a shame Cariba didn't make an appearance in Vampire diaries or originals
That would be been fun
H2O makes me emotional I watched it throughout my whole childhood and it’s crazy to see the cast now!
I really need a 4 season 😔
We need season 4 now it just makes sense
Like if you agree with me
I loved watching the show as a kid and still love watching it at 24 😆💙
cariba’s a literal sweetheart
i started watching H2o when i was like 12 (mind you, i'm french and i watched it on daylymotion and now on netflix). I'm 16 and i watch at least an episode (if not the whole serie) once a year. I might have watched it like 5-6 times now and i CAN'T get enough of it i sweaaaar ;_;. I'm obsessed with this show and would absolutely LOVE a season 4 and more, or even just a spin off
I’d still watch it even if the original cast were kinda just the adult “advice givers” for new teenage merpeople. Like miss Chatham in the original. Just help guide them. Or even if it was just them with their own kids or something. Idk. It could work though.
I would love a season 4 w/ all 4 girls. It would really feel like it would come full circle.
M’y favorite actress Cariba Heine
I love H2O just add water and Mako Mermaid and I'm 27 now. I remember watching H2O as a kid and it's certainly a show that I will keep watching and sharing with my kids because I'm a big kid at heart.
I really want a season 4 even if it's been years. It would be so amazing
I'm 25 years old and I still love this show
Still watch it till this day every night
UGHHH SHES SO FREAKING GORGEOUS
As much as I'd love a season 4, I understand her points. However I feel like a reboot movie would work where it Just acknowledges all the unanswered questions we all have like where the girls are now etc and I would LIVE for that
I would watch it whether it’s good or not just for the love i have for this Show 🥺🥺
Im in quarantine and rewatch the whole show for the 3th time 🥺 they were my childhood
I grew up around this show and now years later I just spent a couple thousand dollars on a h2o tail replica, and no I am not rich, I am just really dedicated.
OMG I saw a tail replica get commmisioned on insta! Was that yours 😆
i started watching h2o again the other day and now this is on my recommended
What a sweet heart! I will always love Ricky and this show!❤❤❤
I started watching the show with my brother in 2015 when I was 9 😂 I miss the show so much but I think I would love to see emma come back maybe they said make a movie or something because yeah
I would watch a adult h2o just add water though :D
I’ve been watching h20 since I was 6 so about 2010 and still watching it 😭
I would love a reunion of the cast
Hear me out, a reboot would be amazing. Like if there was a spin off, I know there was Mako, but that to ended. Which also made me mad. But if they came back with a reboot/spin off whatever you wanna call it, I think it should take place to where the girls are older and more professional; their secret is still a secret but their lives have changed. All of a sudden, there's a moment where they all rekindle and have to go back to their roots.
I'm 35, and I just discovered H20. My favorite is Rikki cause she's a rebel and a skeptical friend like me.
This show is my summer staple:) every year
I’m not asking for a season 4 but that would still be nice if there were. What I want is for someone to make a channel that explains the mysteries and questions about mako island and looks into the shows and sees it differently.
I would watch a season 4 as well! Watch it as a child from the beginning each time they aired a new episode ❤️😊
I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who watches H2O every year. I think I watched it 7 times/7 years only on Netflix, but when it aired I watched on TV as a teen.
H2O was my childhood and I miss it
The only show I would book the TV for growing up :D
I loved H2O. I recently rewatched it all, still loved it the same.
I also watched the other series with the other girls, but it didn't have the same charm for me. But it was still good to me personally. I loved seeing Ricky's return in that :)
Grew up watching it, and now my kids enjoy it!
i want them to do a small reboot about rikki's mom and we haven't really seen the Chadwick house at all
We saw it in a couple season 2 episodes. She lives in a trailer park with her dad.
Imagine an adult version of H2O 😭 I want that so bad
she still looks and sounds like in season 3
We want the reboot!! 😇✨🙏🏾
My nieces got me interested in the show. Now they’re 12 and 14.
Plus they should meet at least some of the Mako Mermaids like Rikki did
I’m 18 and I’ve been watching it every other months ever since I was like 5
Yo tengo 26 años y realmente me encantaría ver una 4 temporada con el elenco original, sería interesante ver cómo es la vida de adulto de las sirenas y como llevan guardando el secreto durante todo ese tiempo.
We would watch whole 4 season!
We need it 😭😭
I kind of understand what she's saying but like I would love a season four showing how they're life is as adults, or a next generation where they're kids also turn into mermaids, not like mako mermaids because that show just didn't exactly have the same vibe but like h20 next gen it would be so cool to see that
