I often think about Jenny saying that verbena smells like celery that’s mad at you. The first time I heard that, I laughed so hard that I couldn’t breathe.
As a queer dude, I'm tempted to start using that line on my sisters, unprompted and out of nowhere, just for fun.

"He goes from indiscriminately killing supporting characters to making soulful pencil-drawings of his favourite horse" is the kind of character development all villains should have.
For an origin story it could go in reverse.
I call it the "Arthur Morgan Special."
Klaus's character arc:
1) Indiscriminately killing supporting characters
2) Draws a horse for Caroline
3) Indiscriminately killing supporting characters
4) Opts to not kill Caroline's boyfriend
5) +1 Daughter
6) Opts to not help Damon torture a dying woman
7) Indiscriminately killing supporting characters but this time it's on The Originals
8) Therapist girlfriend dies
9) Fun father-daughter bonding over finger paints and murder

The phrase "I Bing'd it" has such a vile energy to it

The wildest thing about the weird Confederate vampire trend is that there were a ton of Southerners who enlisted in the Union army -- not the majority, obviously, but not a statistically negligible amount either. If you have your heart set on a courtly Southern gentleman vampire, he doesn't have to have fought for the right to own humans as property.
I demand vampires have their own George Thomas or Montgomery Meigs!
It would make a lot more sense for them to have been evil vampires. If you can own people as property you basically have a free and legal bloodbank.
Or ffs just make it a conscription. Dont have the guy proudly join up voluntarily
@@leaffinite3828nah, fighting for the pro slavery side is bad whether you’re conscripted or voluntary…
@nirvanaheights idk if i think thats necessarily true, but i do agree that the show doesnt really have any reason to compromise when they couldve just had him fight for the union. Im just saying that if for whatever stupid reason they felt he had to be part of the confederacy, dont make him happy about it. Or show us the change in his character from then to the shows events explaining why he wouldnt do that anymore. Do something!
Julie Plec mistreated Kat Graham (Bonnie’s actress) and is part of the reason she was often written out of the show and never given a good opportunity to be happy. The actress has also said that she started losing her hair because they made her wear so many wigs for so much longer than is healthy to wear wigs, because god forbid they let the one black character wear her hair naturally.
When I think I can’t be more upset about how dirty the did Bonnie/Kat it gets worse 🤬
the irony of "I stan Julie Plec, I guess" while absolutely ripping into the racist practices that were absolutely her fault
The girls confessing their love for each other then exploding in a fiery blaze 2 seconds later has me HOWLING

Honestly the whole "people will notice they're not aging" thing only works if you stay in the same place for like, 15+ years? Plenty of time to raise a child. You can just say you have a good skincare routine. It's so weird when vampire media has them moving like, every other year because "people noticed I wasn't aging" like dude it's been A YEAR and age is a GRADUAL CHANGE that is VERY HARD TO NOTICE AS IT HAPPENS
Like even if they're suspicious what are they gonna do about it lol if you live anywhere but this one racist town in virginia that believes in vampires no one would even think of calling you one
Everyone keeps talking about how Tom Cruise or whoever hasn't aged, they don't start taking about burning him at the stake.
Maybe they just got bored of making up bullshit skincare routines.
Like, just say you're addicted to botox and you just don't like talking about it.
Put small streaks of grey in your hair what are they gonna do tell everyone you have a youthful face
If we're generous and assume that they actually look 17 in-universe and are pretending to be 17 then sure, but why would you? Say you're graduated and just look young. Going to school for the rest of your life is a hell of a disturbing lifestyle choice, come to think of it.
I need to put this video essay on a dvd, so that even if sharks chew through the cables that hold the internet, I will always have a way to watch this.
Your comment was a completely wild ride. Also, I would opt for a thumb drive over a DVD. I only have one device that even accepts DVDs and it only plays DVDs when it feels like it.
Use any format you can think of, backups of backups
Honestly? Same.
Please if you ever turn it into a DVD make sure you put the China beach ad every 30 minutes
Absolutely underrated part of this comfort video is the VIDEO GAME SECTION. Everything about it sends me every time. Jenny calling it a “depression simulator” will never not kill me.
That game reminds me of one of those DVD Rom games from the early 2000s where the game is embedded on the DVD of whatever movie and it is only playable once you insert the disc into your laptop.
But she called it an oppression simulator...
Jenny's "Oh no! I need a lot of money!" always makes me laugh even if I'm drifting off to sleep. Also "Oh my God, I know that! I know that!!"
@@Goodbutevilgenius No? Captions say depression.
@@EvilLisaEvillisa I don't know what captions you're looking at, but the English one (not auto-generated) says "oppression".
You forgot the hilarious fact that Stefan and Damon's actors now sell bourbon together
I love knowing this now. X3 Not sure why it seems so hilarious to me, but it does. Thank you.

my simple brain: Vampire Police Department

Vampire Police Department? I'd watch that show.
Write that show.
I would watch every episode of Vampire Police Department with near-religious devotion and loyalty.
I am already a fan of this imaginary show. Someone please make Vampire Police Department happen.
i love the detail of wuthering heights being written by "ellis bell" which is the pen name of Emily Bronte cause she couldnt publish it under a woman's name, so i think that implies stephan has an original copy of the book and is just Giving it away to Elena! which is wild and fun!

I love the detail that Elena didn’t know that Wuthering Heights was written by Emily Brontë.

The funniest thing about Caroline is that everyone thought she would die, but she stayed longer than the protagonist lol
I was so young when I watched this show and I remember my sister was more into if so watched much longer than me and she was telling me the whole Bonnie's gay dad plot and I just responded "she's still alive?". I feel like that is one thing I will give vampire diaries credit for (even if they may have not meant to) they set Bonnie up as a character that is typically killed off quickly die and subverted that
i always thought of her as the kinda shadow main character. I liked Elena fine but Caroline was easily my favourite. Elena was a blank slate for the fans to project on but Caroline was the person who seemed to have the most actual story, development and progression.
Caroline is surprisingly pretty cool/interesting, I love her as a bubbly positive vampire it's fun
Let's not talk about Matt
The best line in the series:
Stefan: caroline, you and I will never happen.
7 seasons later.
Stefan: well damn 😅
I'm sorry but Elijah's entrance 45:22 is literally like "mom i frew up 🧍"
nice profile picture
the way i WHEEZED at this bc it’s SO TRUE 💀
I'm a black woman, was a teen watching vampire diaries and fell in love with show. Bonnie of course was my fave, and loved seeing someone like me as a strong witch. However, I did wonder why Bonnie and Damon never happened, actually wondered why Bonnie was either not on screen or every relationship she had was a failure or they died. Now that i'm older (still watching vampire diaries till this day) and I understood why and what happened to kat graham, really makes me sad. They didn't give her character what she deserved smh
She was such a hit and miss character, they could have done so so much with her and it always made be angry that every time they didn't know what to do they just killed her or some family of hers and sent her off screen
“Take naps. Get a boyfriend. Your boyfriend is the devil. Better the devil than single am I right ladies?”

As a non American, Vampire Diaries made me think American schools had dances every few days
Small towns might have them more. I went to high school in a small town that had them so often that we didn’t usually bother dressing up for most of them, only we have to call them “parties” since calling them “dances” was too sexual.
Yeah. One of those towns.
like the top reply, it's definitely a lot more with the south in the US. dances are a big deal, ask any Texan about their school prom. I'm from Chicago and they're really not a big deal up here, it's just a red state thing ig
XD I wish, jkjk parties are just socially awkward.
@@slightlyoffensivedadjokes Yeah def, I live in the North, and we have one like once a year if that.
We had a homecoming, what's called a "sockhop", a Sadie Hawkins dance, and a prom. This was every year.
The fact that they had a character with survivor’s guilt have their survivor’s guilt confirmed to be accurate, and they chose to basically kill themselves, is pretty incredible. Incredibly stupid and irresponsible.
Not too much unlike Miraculous Ladybug presenting a character who's set up to have an abusive father, where you'd predict the ultimate culmination of his arc would be to break away from familial abuse and heal and learn to live for himself, only for the show to turn around and say "actually he's not even a human, he's just a human-shaped homonculus and is physically unable to go against his 'father's' orders".
Or how 13 Reasons Why basically redeemed or narratively praised every single teen character that died throughout the series, thus communicating that dying or offing yourself in your teen years will only make everyone love you, which is, yknow, not a good thing for a show about a teen offing herself to do.
I don't know why some writers can't resist making the most irresponsible choices for their kid/teen audiences.
@@ArtsyStarletaI mean, the first one doesn't seem that bad to me... can't really expect people to care about a mere human-shaped homunculus.
@@ArtsyStarleta How many seasons of Miraculous Ladybug did I skip? WTF?
@@ArtsyStarleta (genuine question) how old are you ?
@@DEARPEDAGOGYsame question for you I'm curious
I love how Jenny sets up the huge emotional and dramatic stakes of the moment near the end where Bonnie figures out how to end the spell and when Elena wakes up and sees her there and asks her how she did it, Bonnie just has this casual "It was super easy. Barely an inconvenience!" energy when answering her. Watching a Jenny Nicholson video is an unparalleled experience.
Wow wow wow... ... ...wow.
Breaking unbreakable spells is tight!
I gotta say, having one of your most powerful villains set up an apparently no-win scenario for your heroes, only to have one of your heroes fix it in a single line of dialogue that amounts to "lol I just leveled up I guess" is a pretty ballsy move.
Don’t forget, Jenny made a pitch meeting video before it was cool.

Thank you for addressing the disgusting bias towards Bonnie’s character. Kat Graham (the actress for Bonnie) was the most talented actress and even musician of the entire cast and she herself expressed how incredibly disappointing and demeaning it felt to play a character who wasn’t even a priority, though she presented as a main character

Isobel legitimately sounds like text-to-speech.
I wished you had talked about how every vampire murder is just written off as a cougar/bear attack. My friend and I joked about a 'lost episode' where the National Wildlife Federation comes to Mystic Falls to investigate why they have a 50,000% higher wildlife-related death rate compared to every county in the entire world. Damon would fake alliance with them, and Bonnie would make up a new ability to save the day, of course.
Lol, underrated comment.
Every murder in a teenage vampire series is a cougar attack, in some sense, no?
@@MegaJotie Well done, sir or madam!
Buffy the Vampire Slayer does a similar thing where supernatural deaths are written off as either "feral dogs" or "gangs on PCP". Why the feds haven't rolled into town to stop the PCP gang murdering at least four people a week is anyone's guess.

I do believe that that there are certain occasions when an author can be excused for writing "a dumb thing" because they genuinly wrote themselves into a corner and thus had to contribe their way out it. So its less "they want it to be that way" and more "it had to be that way bcause they didnt plan in right"... or simply they didnt thought of a better way. Which, in escence yields the same result so its a bit of a wash
This is literally how I respond to anything Julie Plec has had a hand in
I'm a RIPPER! A ripper doesn't STOP
Rewatching this and I still laughed SO HARD when Tyler’s mom said “oh a compliment ☺️I think I’ll fall over” cut to her being FLOWN off a staircase. Very rarely do I laugh that hard from UA-cam videos anymore
The whole "a vampire can't go into a house without being invited' thing, would have done Bella some good, with Edward coming into her room and watching her sleep
Seriously! Why do we just ignore how creepy that is?!
True Blood also used this piece of lore and I enjoyed that. Especially when people would have to say the line "I rescind my invitation" as angrily and dramatically as possible, and then the vampire would involuntarily run out of the house at Flash speed. Also, it's funny that they deliberately threw out other very common pieces of vampire lore - garlic doesn't affect them, crosses don't affect them, I think you can still see them in mirrors IIRC, etc. - yet kept THAT, of all things.
Plus in the first book Edward was 104 years old and Bella was 17
That’s an 87 year age gap.
That’s getting a yikes from me
@@doubletrouble5448 I mean, Klaroline has a waaaay bigger age gap…
@@doubletrouble5448 true, but Friendly Space Ninja points out a tiny gem: vampires no longer age, physically _or_ mentally, after they've been turned.
Imagine being 17 and thinking like you're 17 for the rest of forever.
I remember being 17. I hope no-one else remembers me being 17. 😬🥴😅
Purely liking for the transition from Bonnie saying "this year is gonna be kickass" to Elena having multiple mental breakdowns and witnessing the deaths of EVERYONE she loves....magical
Start of 2020 Vs actual 2020 energy
"Nice Work Bonnie" is the new "Thanks Obama"
Jeremys death scene she showed was by far the funniest

"Every vampire media should feature Dracula"
Agreed. Even the pay to win "choose your own adventure" mobile game that I play (it's a guilty pleasure) had Dracula. He was a fuckboy and you had to buy a microtransaction to have a one night stand with him, and he bones you on the ceiling lmao
More media that isn’t about vampires should feature Dracula. Public domain is a wonderful thing, we don’t utilize it enough as a culture.

“Oh my god I found my racism post-it!”
Lol best payoff for a joke.
It was such a slow burn, but it was so worth it.
And pinned under "The Bonnie Problem" nonetheless.
@@Prederick Yes! The entire Bonnie section, I followed up every issue with a whispered "it's the racism" to my roommates. That post it reveal at the end was so perfect!
I knew we gonna get a payoff soon when I saw the star hat
Mastery, I tell you.
She leaves out the part where Bonnie is trapped alone in a prison world and eventually driven to suicide. The writers basically used her as a human punching bag.
Seriously she deserved so much better
Bonnie is the best and has it worst.....some screws up...Bonnie rescues them, suffers, gets nothing...(repeat as necessary)
But they always went running to her when things hit the fan. It was so crazy how when Elena lost her brother she was allowed to grieve and push it aside in such a horrible way doing bad things to people but when Bonnie lost her grams she had to help them out straight away and that happened anytime she was going through something.
@@allegraanegra455 Bonnie suffers and swallows so much. She is the true tragic hero. How she put up with the lot calling themselves her friends is beyond me. Me in her place? I would have turned them into toads at some point.
Elena, my oh my.....
No matter who or how or what Rebekka is/was, Elenas murder of her was pure evil.
I'm not implying anything,, but I feel like the storyline of the one main BIPOC character in these 2000s-early 2010s shows always has a relatively simple story.
the setup and payoff of the racism post-it always get me, never gets old
As a costumer, I personally take offense to the clothes and thank you SO MUCH for calling out the importance of GOOD costuming hahaha
also let’s talk about how bonnie was the personified version of the “strong black woman” stereotype. all the characters constantly relied on her for EVERYTHING and she was so tired but everyone insisted she be constantly strong even tho they’d all be dead without her.
Yes!!!
fuckin truuuuu they did bonnie so fucking dirty mannnnn,
Also Magical Black Person trope
@@Kelekona although i do agree with this, also, a lot of witchcraft was created by black people and so i feel like they tried to be as historically correct as possible by making bonnie and her ancestors black. but i do agree.
@@scarlettrg911 sure though looking at how they dealt with other cultural topics i think your giving them a lot. I never watched the show in full (my sis did so ive seen the odd episode out of context) but i think people are a bit turned off that she had to be relied on for everything AND she didnt get a satisfying ending/story line. From what it sounds like if they had used her character better i dont think people would have mind that she had to help everyone else alot .. you know if they had given her something equally worthwhile to do.
They did Bonnie dirty. She could have been the best character - but they just made her a problem solver who’s always getting her heart broken.
Bonnie was the best character wdym?? The fact that she was so powerful and sacrificed her happiness and literal LIFE every time was so heartbreaking. Kat played her so well and her emotions were so raw.
And she still is the best character
They did almost every poc dirty, tyler technically isn't poc for some reason, but Michael Trevino was done dirty, same with Marcel in the originals and so on
@@harshasewlani5312 yeah, definitely my biggest qualm with the show is the lack of representation and when POC and LGBTQ+ characters were introduced they always got the short end of the stick :/
I thought Bonnie WAS the best character. She was selfless and not doing dumb things to constantly ruin the plan. She was my favorite
59:03 So cool that they got Jenny Nicholson to play Evil Jenny Nicholson in this scene. 10/10 acting.
A summary of this video:
*NOOOOO! JENNA!*
🎶Through the mirror of my mind~🎶
"So it won't work if you get hit by a bus, but it WILL work if a vampire is driving the bus" sent me to the Other Side.
Dw I got a mummy hand!
I actually love that. It feels like the sort of specific wording that a genie could get behind. The magic works if you're killed by a supernatural being, it's that simple
This is like Yu-Gi-Oh's "send to the graveyard" instead of "destroy" lmao
@@tesserarius5899 it does feel exactly like genie logic, but dont say it too loud or the producers will come back for another spinoff.
Would it work if a vampire compelled a bus driver to get into an accident?
I’d love to see a vampire romance where the vampire tells his lover that she looks exactly like his wife from a century ago and then he shows her a picture of his dead wife and she just looks fucking nothing like her
10/10 comment
Lmao, like kind of a Taika Waititi comedy about immortal vampires with shit memory. They act like they're world-weary, wise and have seen everything first-hand but in fact every single smug recounting of historical & personal events are like wildly inaccurate. Show flashes back to the vamps in the 1700s or whatever then cuts to present day where they make the exact same mistakes over again bc none of em can retain a single life lesson over the centuries.
@@amartyakejora5451 honest to god it would even make SENSE! It would play into the "unchangeability" of a vampire as new memories would mean the brain changes
That is more or less the witch subplot from what we do in the shadows
@@Killroy007 I mean that's kind of a theme in Dracula, played straight--the fact that he's learning and changing freaks out the guy who knows about vampires because vampires aren't supposed to be able to do all that, so Drac is a much bigger threat
"Actual footage of Kai placing Elena under a sleeping curse" and "These guys are helping" was missed the first few times I watched this video.
as someone who was in middleschool while all of these teen shows were airing, I felt like the most uncool, boring kid because I never watched any of them and only knew them by name. It's been a healing experience to find out every single show I thought was the cool edgy teen show of my time (pretty little liars, the originals, glee, gossip girl, lost) are all in reality incredibly ridiculous and I wasn't missing a thing
As someone who was also in middle school when these shows came out and felt like the boring kid for a long time before succumbing to the peer pressure, I can guarantee you that it really feels different when you experience them as a dumb pre-teen. And even now as a rational pre adult the nostalgia I just got from reading some of the shows you just quoted (you forgot teen wolf btw) makes me wanna go back to thirteen all over again
@@itpatritia oh im sure they are priceless in entertainment value, even if i watched them for the first time as a engineering student lol. but i certainly had a very skewed idea of what they were like, i thought all of them were this deep tight knit plot, hunger games level of writing and message, like with every new villain you would actually sit tight and tense up thinking what could happen, basically i never thought they were allowed to be campy and fun lol (here be the consequenses of being raised by a very "only black and white movie are good" dad. i grew up on charles chaplin and the lost fucking horizon, it was as a boring to a elementary school child as it sounds!!!)
also omg definetly teen wolf and shadowhunters, i was the weird wolf kid and i used to think their werewolves were so ugly LOL considering my now love for werewolves i might check it out and see all the teen angst and cheese for myself
I would love to see just once a vampire romance where the teenage main girl asks the vampire how long he's been 17 and he replies "30 years" and it gets awkward as she realizes she's just dating a young looking middle aged man.
The perfect mix of weirdly way more **and** way less problematic
That relationship would end so fast after that conversation
The thing is, the human wouldn't mind because she would get a mature guy in a young body. Perfect! But the vampire would get bored very quickly with an immature human. That's why the relationship wouldn't last.
Bonus point if he was in high school with her parents, maybe he liked her mom and there was a rivalry btw him and her dad
😭
A bit late but as someone with ADHD. I wouldn't want to be a vampire. I can see myself putting off a meaningless task and being like "Oh yeah I've been trying to do that since the 1500s"
Dude same 🤣 ADHD makes life so much harder but it's not all bad. I look at it as a super power with drawbacks
I've never related to anything more than this comment
This needs to be a book series or a tv show
@Agent Bubble i think it’s very perspective heavy. my friend with autism + adhd always tells me (adhd + depression) that my adhd makes me who i am and he likes me the way i am, but i would definitely get rid of it if i could. like okay yes, sometimes if i’m really interested in something, i can do amazing things with my super-concentrative power but it sucks 99% of the time💀i would throw away this smoothbrain shit immediately if i could lmao
@Agent Bubble Part of it comes with learning how to discipline and be yourself w an adhd mind, in mind. It's easy for me to turn some boring tasks into a game or an opportunity to just hangout in my own head. I've also found that people find me kinda interesting, since I naturally have a different way of verbalizing thoughts. Obviously the other sides of those coins is that I can forget to self care when I'm toiling away, and people can also find me very intense. It's all about perspective. It's hard to view it positively all of the time tho 😕
this is still my comfort video and jenny's acapella rendition of the china beach commercial is my new favorite moment

Just once I want one of these "Vampire who's from a generation before the human protagonist" stories would be more like... The hot vampire boy turned in like the late 70s, he was super into the 1980s and hanging out with the protagonist is just a long con to hook up with her mom.
Coming soon to the CW network, Vampire Stepdad
Also, they had an easy out with the whole Confederate soldier thing, since during the civil war they were conscripting pretty much everyone they could so... Writing that Damon *enlisted* makes it really weird
Every month or so it occurs to me that Jenny not only made THIS MASTERPIECE but also did all the voices in Friendship is Witchcraft!

At this point I feel like “The CW” is a genre unto itself
Sorta like how Disney is its own genre. Weird but you're totally right.
nonsensical, painfully melodramatic, questionable and inconsistent writing, trope-filled, refuses to end, and every single character's actor is conventionally good-looking but only 5/10 are actually good at acting bc they aren't just models the producers falsely promised a career to? we love to see it
@@washedblue Same happens with the music world, the reality is that you only need a catching asset and that's enough for an audience, entertainment sadly or not isn't something to get philosophical lectures and deep intel from.
@@washedblue yeah that’s basically it.
Back in the 1930s-1950s, every Hollywood studio had what was known as its own "house style", because each studio cranked out over 40 movies per year, mostly with the same slate of actors, directors and writers under contract. By the 1960s, the studios mostly distributed independently produced films, so no longer had a distinct house style anymore (except for Disney which was still producing every film in-house in those days).
I've seen the modern Hallmark Channel compared to old Hollywood, in that they likewise produce about 40 films per year, all using the same production company, and a slate of recurring actors, and most of the movies have the same style.
this video spawned a whole new youtube subgenre i feel like i witnessed a historical event by seeing it when it first dropped
the Very 2000s long sleeves with lace camis underneath are back in style again, just as jenny predicted.

on a series rewatch and in a scene where a bunch of vampires are going up in flames they're playing 'everybody hurts, everybody cries' which is just delightfully on the nose like yes, i'd say those vampires are hurting
My favorite "Being Bonnie is a thankless job" moment is in season one, when Elena and Bonnie are kidnapped, and while the baddies let Elena lounge on the bed in the motel room, Bonnie is stuffed in the bathtub.
