Black Friday Reaction Video || Team Starkid Reaction

Team Starkid's Black Friday is a hip and hoppin' musical about an eldritch god named Wiggly and this is my video completely ignoring the message of said musical as Wiggly beckons for me to possess him. WARNING: No-no words, some popcorn munchin', and spoilers ensue!

Music and Footage from • Black Friday
From www.teamstarkid.com/black-friday :
Black Friday is a new horror-comedy musical about the shopping day from hell. When the holiday season’s hottest new toy, the Tickle-Me Wiggly, hits the shelves, the city of Hatchetfield goes mad for it, literally. That’s when Tom Houston, Lex Foster, Becky Barnes and a few familiar faces, must fight through a sea of murderous mall-goers to save humanity from an inter dimensional being with a taste for chaos. When Wiggly comes to town, will the world survive Black Friday?

To clear up some confusion! Black Friday is an alternate universe to TGWDLM! General McNamara even talks about their being multiple universes in the show!! I’m so excited for Nerdy Prudes Must Die ( the next and last in the hatchetfield trilogy )! Something I noticed was HCB ( hot chocolate boy ) was in WITC and holding teds hand, which leads me to believe he’ll be a main character in NPMD and maybe even Grace chasity! ( she was mentioned in TGWDLM and BF, Alice called her a nerdy prude which fits w/ the title of the next one! ) overall super excited to see how they continue this story!

[@TheMaddness22]

Oh very cool!!! I had no idea about any of this!!! I just really hope "Santa Claus Goes to High School" gets the Oscar worthy conclusion it deserves. 😂

[@Intrusivemov]

TheMaddness22 me too!! I am a Kris Kringle fanatic and I want a short film ASAP 😤😤

Reading the words "next and last in the Hatchetfield trilogy" makes me Very sad, but AAA I'm excited too!!!

[@LegoMelonz15]

I saw the second performance live, and apparently the person who got joey’s Apple wanted it signed

[@TheMaddness22]

BIG MOOD. I have no judgement against this person. That is a very reasonable request. 😂

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

Someone wrote that in another performance Curt's father was in the audience and Joey handed the apple to him. He took a bite out of it. Joey stopped talking, turned to him like "WTF did you just do?", grabbed the apple back, and threw it up the stairs. LMAO

[@TheMaddness22]

Hahahah that sounds hilarious! I almost wish that was in the show too 😂

[@mads9966]

Sean McMurphy I heard it was Kim’s father

@@mads9966 Oh, okay, thanks! I read it a while ago, couldn't remember. And yes, I would have died if that perfect bit of improv had been in the vid.

I love that Jon did the voice of wiggly.

[@TheMaddness22]

It was so good!!!!

[@avast47]

"Hatchetfield has the weirdest issues" true dat

[@TheMaddness22]

They do indeed

[@lizziebeth157]

This is such a fun reaction! Also “Joey Richter does a really good devil” Hell yeah he does. I saw him actually play the devil when they did The Last Days of Judas Iscariot the same summer as Twisted. Joey makes a legit terrifying devil when he tries. I adore Joey, but that performance had me physically leaning away from him when he came near where I was sitting in the audience. I was blown away by his acting ability. He remains my favorite Starkid actor because of that.

[@TheMaddness22]

I remember Judas!!! Gosh I wish they recorded it or I had the opportunity to see it live. Every review I've heard about it said that it was an incredible performance! I'm so glad we at least got a taste of it in Black Friday ☺️

[@lizziebeth157]

TheMaddness22 it was so good. I wish I could see it again but I get that getting the rights to record and distribute that show would’ve been way too expensive. I was one of those backers who got to do brunch with the cast before the show which was a ton of fun. That was my first time meeting any Starkids and it was so great. They are just as nice in person as I thought they would be. But let me tell you, the whiplash from seeing sweet kind Joey at that brunch to the visceral fear I felt for his character in the show was mind-boggling. And the massive crush I had on Joey at the time didn’t help with the very confused feelings. But yeah, my respect for him as an actor grew by leaps and bounds after that show and I wish everyone could’ve gotten to see it.

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

*Maddy at beginning of show:* I so want a Wiggly doll! *After half the characters are killed fighting over them:* Okay, I don't really want one any more. I love that on the Starkid website the Wiggly doll is the same price it was in the show: $49.95 Attention to detail!

[@TheMaddness22]

Ooooo good eye! Also a lot of money for a little doll lol

[@2910karlijn]

You can actually buy a wiggly doll in their official web shop

[@TheMaddness22]

😱😱😱😱 AMAZING. I thought they only had a limited run of them! I'm so excited to give into capitalism!

[@turbonerdo6838]

@@TheMaddness22 Obviously not at the moment with corona, they shut down their physical distribution and are only selling digital items, but the Wiggly's were available in about March so they've gone from a limited sale to at least a semi-regular production of them.

[@mads9966]

I think nick said something about as long as people keep buying them they’ll keep restocking them

[@Ray-hk1zm]

About your comment during Do You Want To Play With Me, about being in the audience... I saw it, Kim was directly over me, it was terrifying but also she was singing very pretty so?

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

You are living the dream! I am *so* jealous of you right now.

Your reactions are incredibly wholesome

[@TheMaddness22]

Thank you!!! It was not a very wholesome musical tho! Hahahaha

[@imsilyeah]

this was so fun! now i really wanna rewatch the musical

[@TheMaddness22]

It's a good one!!! I need to get the soundtrack ASAP and that kinda feels like re-watching it hahaha

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

I really enjoyed your reaction! Seeing what other people responded to is really fun and increases my love of the show. BF is now my fav Starkid show (and I don't think that's going to change). You are perceptive, I didn't pick up that Uncle Wiley was Wilbur Cross until several viewings. By the way, the reason Becky, a nurse, missed with the hypodermic was that Hannah was wearing Ethan's magic hat. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@TheMaddness22]

Ahhh the magic hat!!! That makes so much more sense!!! I was just gonna attribute it to multiverse shenanigans but WOW that is a detailed take! I love Starkid's writing so much! So many nuances and twists and turns! Also I'm glad you enjoyed my reaction! I kinda want to do it for other musicals, but I know them all so much that idk how I could pull it off lol

[@seanmcmurphy4744]

@@TheMaddness22 Oh, there's also Starry the musical with Jaime, Jeff, Mariah, Lauren, and Dylan. I don't think the whole thing has dropped yet, but some of the songs are on youtube. DYLAN plays VINCENT VAN GOGH!!!! I am going to die!!!

[@brantleytaylor5859]

I could quote every scene she showed from the show and idk how I should feel about that

Proud because that's a lot of passion and dedication!!!! I love it!!! I can probably do the same for AVPM tbh lol

Hahahaha actually dying at this comment because sameeeee 😂😂😂😂😂

[@arielfoster6580]

Okay so this is obviously a while after this was put up but I love this show so much. I have watched it nine times since it came out, I have a theory about Webby not exactly being the innocent little thing we hear about from Hannah (and a theory about her being the Other Mother from Coraline but like... there's no way that could happen sooooo), I have a theory that NPMD will involve resurrecting Jane only to have to kill her again to save the town! Suffice to say I'm kinda obsessed with this show, it burrowed into my brain at the start of quarantine and it has not left since

[@TheMaddness22]

Aw man that's awesome!!! I was the same way with Starship when I first watched it. I definitely developed a whole lore around the worlds and everything! Starkid just makes these fun little pockets of the universe to get super invested in. That would be cool if Hannah could crossover and be the Other Mother from Coraline! Especially since they both have the same wonky alternate universe reality.

[@susiewolf4318]

Great video! I loved your reactions ♡

[@mollywhiteman8956]

i’m so angry you didnt even mention man in a hurry

[@krissmith800]

You should watch and react to Nightmare Time now. Even if you have already seen the episodes, it would be interedting for you to watch and share your ideas/theories.

[@concettasorvillo3719]

You seem very funny but also too much talkative, really did you followed everything?
