[@DuranmanX]

It was Walpole!

[@satansamael666]

Nice!

[@genesischaparro8954]

IT WAS WALPOLE!!

[@cholten99]

Ah, glad someone got that in :-D

[@colinwoodall6150]

ahh a fellow Extra Credits fan. I see what you did there.

[@Udontkno7]

I rushed down here once I heard him say it, knew someone had to do it

[@colinwoodall6150]

honestly I was about to then I read the comment. Beat me to it darn it all. lol.

[@TheRealE.B.]

*It's always Walpole.*

[@TheRealE.B.]

*WALPOOOOOLLLLLLLEEEEEE!!!*

[@ms.rstake_1211]

yaassss

[@YoFreshWiggy]

It was Walpole! Hahaha!

[@ms.rstake_1211]

LOL... yeah

[@YoFreshWiggy]

You watch 'Extra Credit' too?

[@ianrbuck]

"Well, it was lewd while it lasted." 😆

[@camiloiribarren1450]

“A pleasure too exquisite for laughter”. How English - Mike This is why we love your lessons

[@Dayglodaydreams]

Sturm und Drang! 19th Century! Romanticism! We're heading towards the 20th century! Avant-garde theater! (and the American Musical). Yes!!!!!!!

[@Dayglodaydreams]

Sorry about the diarrhea of the mind type thing I did here.

[@chrisgurney2467]

"Bums on seats Laddie, bums on seats" Cookie for the reference XD

[@cholten99]

The first thing I thought of when they mentioned Garrick and the face-the-audience-legs-apart-and-shouting method of acting (Blackadder 3rd, Sense and Senility).

[@chrisgurney2467]

*gives Cookie* XD

[@cholten99]

Chris Gurney Om nom nom

[@cholten99]

If you want to know more about Mr Foote and his unfortunate accident there's a whole play about the incident called Mr Foote's Other Leg which I saw at the Haymarket (the theatre he owned, still going strong today).

[@ms.rstake_1211]

wow!

[@ravenpotter3]

6:24 deathly hollows

[@olivercuenca4109]

Foote took the whole amputated leg thing pretty well though. There are accounts of him making whole strings of jokes about his name meaning he was born with a Foote to spare and that like. Funny guy considering he’s joking about his own debilitating crippling. :p

[@Rock-tc3qg]

I am sentimental for some of them lewd mimes

[@Dayglodaydreams]

It's like the Hays Code, but 100s of years before cinema really existed.

[@Dayglodaydreams]

It doesn't look like moral guardians and censors of any type are going to go away .

[@Dayglodaydreams]

Wait.....is this why musical theater is so bad sometimes? Because it was practically invented to get around censorship? Am I missing something, or somethings? (I still like Mother Courage, and Fidler on the Roof though).

[@Dayglodaydreams]

Why does Gerrick's portrait look like David Hume's portrait does in this?

[@mojosbigsticks]

Excellent as ever!

[@Suite_annamite]

@11:25: *Uh-oh, "Stormfront" (or Stürmfront) is gonna love that reference!* :D

[@pastelsparadox]

This comment section is so much more chill than it is in the other subjects,,

[@nothisispatrick4644]

I only listen to *sophisticated* music

[@procrastinator99]

THE HALLOWS SIGN!!! I SAW IT!

[@loganclarke1287]

you guys should make a crash course on Egyptian mythology

[@ellaser93]

So tricky... so effective... so Walpole.

[@yanchen9796]

6:23. Look on the walls of the jail. There’s the sign of the deathly hollows.

[@ms.rstake_1211]

I really enjoyed this.

[@ravenpotter3]

We need despicito 2

[@joryjones6808]

Captain Britannia civil war.

[@7ON1N]

Skulls cry now? Woah technology sure advanced.

[@CarolineGarland]

How would the actors be heard throughout the very large (2) theaters? I assume they couldn't be, so if I'm correct, what did the audience do? Anything good, or did they just talk amongst themselves (and make it harder for the actors to be heard)? Also, did the theaters still sell concessions in the stands, and would such foods still end up on stage?

[@gangurobitch]

Caroline Theaters were designed to carry sound.

[@CarolineGarland]

@@gangurobitch Yes, but if the audience was never asked to be quiet, vendors were selling stuff throughout the play, and people were booing or cheering, wouldn't that make it hard to hear, even with sound-amplifying designs?

[@fates1767]

That was some...........dinner.

[@carlyfredrickson8390]

do an anthropology playlist!

[@sugami82]

Cool, now I know where panto started :D

[@meteorneor11]

6:26 The Deathly Hallows symbols

[@MsLazyllama101]

Nice deathly hallows on the prison

[@olivercuenca4109]

9:14 “A version of Comedia delle’arte appeared in this period called pantomime”- Oh no it didn’t!

[@ethanrepublic]

Were people accidentally hanged while acting In a play?

[@jeronimotamayolopera4834]

GREAT JOB.

[@imortalones]

Theater never dies does the militaries of Europe not learn this yet? Also interesting video. gj

[@collective9466]

It was WALPOLE!

[@DuranmanX]

If people are born good, what made the prostitute evil?

[@MysticKenji2]

"Being a prostitute" is probably what they would say

[@DuranmanX]

I just feel like it's a logic of infinite regress

[@richfaircloth1464]

It's Okay.

[@Jobe-13]

Cool!

[@jamestang1227]

So 18th Century acting would be more over-the-top than Shatner and Cage combined.

[@sirjanska9575]

Of course it had to be Walpole.

[@robertwatson4840]

Are we going to get an opera episode??

[@isamekailmahmud9302]

does anyone not know what he meant by "dinner''

[@pamellaokonny4355]

Isa Mekail Mahmud sex

[@totallynotjeff7748]

Im not even subscribed how am i so early?

[@thefudgestix]

What's with the sound and lighting

[@sherthedugtrio_yt4590]

I wish Astronomy has season 2. '._.

[@korstmahler]

When did sentimental take on bad intonations? That was just a tad out of the blue.

[@jasminnyack1724]

I like the Deathly Hallows symbols on the prison

[@Dayglodaydreams]

It's like the word virtue signalling has gone mainstream, why did anyone (me included) think PBS Idea Channel was complete, when we thought it was.

[@emadhamdy7816]
