great end

[@WhatImDoingNow]

good luck

[@doddleoddle]

:''''( I love you and I love everyone

[@doddleoddle]

at 23:30 and my heart's beating fast nononononono this can't end

[@doddleoddle]

25:40 NOOOOOOOO NONO NOOO

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Dodie. Let it die.

[@featheredflyer4290]

This series is a wonderful way to look back on a year, and is a thousand times more pleasant than real PMS. This is brilliant.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

So now when you get actual PMS the memory of this will make it better right? Right? No? I'll go.

[@featheredflyer4290]

Either that or I'll be tempted to make videos looking back on my PMS experiences as a way to chronicle my year.

[@HillierSmith]

By the way, that moment at the end. Your parents have good taste in music, Bright Side of the Road by Van Morrison!

[@SuperSamStuff]

I know Jack's taking over, and judging from his first video he's really going to do this series proud, but I'm really going to miss you making these. I've been telling my friends that this was one of my favourite things to come out of KZbin in 2014. That being said, I'm sure you'll put the same drive into whatever else you make this year, and I can't wait to see it. Also, I'm your mum. Sorry you had to find out this way

[@WhatImDoingNow]

It all makes sense now.

[@foizzy]

Started watching yesterday and I don't understand how I've never seen your PMS before now. It was brilliant.

[@user-uy4ld2jw4l]

Absolutely loved this this whole "Pretentious Fuckin' Bullshit", very glad it is carrying on with Mr Jack Howard. Also I didn't get the significance of the camera handing over from Sammy to Jack at new year in Jacks video, but now I get he was "handing over" PMS.

[@SophieCountsClouds]

A complete stranger, but very thoroughly inspired by the project. Thank you sammy

[@WhatImDoingNow]

GO FOURTH. CREATE!

[@AlinaTheGoblin]

I know Jack is going to do a lovely job of PMS this year, but I will miss you terribly, Sammy. Thanks for making my months a little more enjoyable and contemplative. It's always fun to see through the lens of someone else's life. And one more thing. The fact that you put a Starbomb song in your last PMS video just made my day. The Game Grumps are in everyone's hearts, this is fact.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Got a lot of love for Starbomb. They fucking rock.

[@controversial1080]

Okay. So I just finished watching this whole project in one day and to be honest I feel quite wired. Both because I feel like I just missed a whole year since I became so invested in your life and also because there happened so much this year and there were many ups and downs and I'm processing it all at the same time. But dispite that, Sammy you did an amazing job. The way you made it so honest and down to earth, I felt like I got to know you. Well done.

[@lieabrown7045]

It was quite an experience to watch creative people work, i was quite worried that December wouldn't be uploaded because I'd always have this feeling that pms wasn't complete. KZbinrs like you, sammy inspire me to do something interesting with my life. It's great to see how much effort is put into such funny content. thank chu! :3

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Late maybe, but deep down I think I always knew it was going to get complete. Also wow, that's an amazing thing to inspire in someone. Please do just that!

[@lieabrown7045]

Just a little bit late xD You inspire many people, I'm just one of them. I just hope that I'd get to see one of your plays someday.

[@KieranJB]

An apt sendoff to the series! Really really enjoyed these videos throughout the year, and looking forward to what Jack does with the format :D

[@WhatImDoingNow]

As am I!

[@HillierSmith]

It's been so easy to move on and forget the amount of time you spend with a best friend. Your summary of this year reflected that you are a important and close friend of mine, and I'm glad I shared some of my moments with you man. Love ya. x

[@littlemissoptimism]

I don't know why I've never watched your PMS considering I've watched all of Hazel's so far and knew that you started it but I've binged the year over the past couple of days and I NEED MORE :(

[@charisreid_]

Literally same here

[@TiasTravels]

Nice job finishing! After August I couldn't afford my editing program anymore and I really didn't film much so my monthly scrapbook kind of fell to the wayside. I'm pretty bummed about it because some pretty big changes came into my life at the end of the year, but oh well.

[@visator]

These videos have been a complete pleasure to watch! I enjoyed seeing glimpses of someone's life who plays a part in many of the outstanding creations I have watched this year on KZbin. I wish you the best of luck in 2015 and look forward to seeing what you create this year.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Well, let us drink to more "outstanding creations" (in my head we're knights drinking mead or something).

[@theforceiswithjamie8529]

A week later and the Smash Bros. song is still in my head. Thank you for that and also for this amazing series. This pretentious fucking bullshit was a work of art for real.

[@paleghosty]

i'm so glad pms exists and will continue to exist gosh

[@WhatImDoingNow]

IT WILL NEVER DIE!

[@misshaack]

Well done Sammy. Well done. Thanks for putting time and energy into recording and sharing the "most uncertain year of your life" with grace and style. While I'll miss these, maybe a vlog or two will still happen, I look forward to watching JackHoward take the reins for 2015. Thanks for sharing and good luck on your future projects -- personally I'm quite excited for your short film with Tim H

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Yeah, me too. Keep an eye on my twitter for cool announcements on that front.

[@WaistHighView]

All of the sketches for ComedyCentral were so brilliant, I can't believe all of them were done in a week?? Chloe hitting the table gets me every time, it's the stupidest joke but I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw it. Though I thought she would have fallen on a mat or something :P But I feel like I've just witnessed the end of something momentous with this, and I think I'm really going to miss it. Thank you so much for sharing PMS with us, it's been really fun and inspiring; your passion for what you do is infectious and now all I want to do is go out and make films. Although I'm going to miss this I am super excited for your forthcoming projects, what you've done in 2014 was fantastic, and by the looks of it 2015 is going to be even better! The few clips you showed here looked gorgeous and I really can't wait :)

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Yeah, mad credit to Tom's team on that one. I was but a happy observer. I'm really happy to hear that I've inspired some form of want to make films. I'm so inspired by so much and so many people that it's nice to see the flip side of that. And yeah, some crazy good fun ahead for 2015. Very excited for everything on the horizon.

[@xfindthefacts]

Awk Sammy, to say it was amazing is an understatement, allowing people to experience your year in itself made a lot of theirs I'm sure, as for me I began knowing you as a Ciaran O'Brien type KZbin production guy, now you're this funny, experienced creative that I can't wait to see even more of. Thanks Sammy

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Wait... a "Ciaran O'Brien type KZbinr". That's a thing. He will be most pleased.

[@CraigSephton]

Whow... an amazing year! And I watched it in i think just over 3 hours!! Awesome... Sammy you continue to inspire, and you have given me things to strive for. Thank you for being alive, maybe one day at a convention or on a set, I will get to shake your hand. Bravo sir... even though this has been done for six months! The Pretentious Monthly BULLSHIT... get's me every time

[@MyInsideVoice]

Thank you for including so many clips of Hazel. There's something about the pitch of her voice that clears my sinuses right out.

[@katiebrain75]

This is beautiful

[@murryplu]

20:33 WHAT THE?! THIS LOOKS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZING! Wow.

[@ramonaiiigh]

i'm just a stranger but this was a roller coaster of emotions and i loved it a lot thank you

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Wayyy. Like. Like Thorpe Park. Like. In September. Like. Roller-coaster. Like. Yeah.

[@emmakazal6123]

I'm really sad you're not continuing this- it was my favourite vlog series. Jack will be great but there's something about your videos that seems so personal and living your life with you has just been really interesting and intriguing. I am looking forward to new creative videos though!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Well I'm often doing stuff with Jack so no doubt I will crop up here and there.

[@FilmmakerMichael]

Thoroughly enjoyed this series buddy! Well done the great videos and the great year! Looking forward to seeing what you get up to this year with Wildseed, Peter Wright, Rocks The Bleed and whatever else you put out for us to watch!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

That means a lot man. It's a weird one where although I'll miss this series, I'm going straight into a lot of other fun stuff. Keeping my foot on the accelerator I guess.

[@MollyBlueDawn]

I am still catching up on a backlog of videos I have been meaning to get around to watching, so this is where PMS 2014 finally ends for me. (I made it last a few months longer for Dodie's sake!) It's been a good to see each month, and the whole year, as a series of highlights - projects, adventures, good times spent with friends and family. Thanks for such great view of the world! (And the view from your parents' house - Oh! I want to travel through England see all that green!) Happy 2015! May it be even better than 2014!

[@RubyMayCee]

I've really really enjoyed this series and didn't even notice that this was 30 minutes long wow. Congrats on finishing it and on everything else you achieved in 2014 and I hope that your 2015 is very successful. All of the kind of behind the scenes stuff that you have had in this series has just inspired me even more to want to start making films, so that's what I'm going to do! Thank you for this Sammy :)

[@WhatImDoingNow]

I look forward to seeing what you made dude! And thank you for the kind words.

[@ParaPotter1999]

I'm really glad I finally stumbled upon these videos of your year, there's a very different feel to these as to the various pms that followed last year and are continuing this year. Really beautiful summary of a year in your life, seemed like a very interesting, exciting, loving year. Have to say I admire your work ethic and all you managed to achieve in 2014, hope 2015 was as rewarding, and 2016 is being kind. Thank you for creating and sharing these videos.

[@finbarlyons4042]

it’s 2019 and i’m still obsessed with these videos, love you sammy

[@losivert]

I wasn't your mom and neither your personal friend watching this, but I have to say that after twelve months, it felt like I spent a little time with you and your PMS, so i wouldn't say I'm a completely stranger. But sadly I am. :P That was a great project Sammy. Really, really good. Maan, and thinking that this was a +30 minute video and it didn't seem that long watching. I didn't know much of you before, but you are a incredibly talented guy, with great friends and an awesome future ahead. Keep doing great stuff man, you for sure deserve the best.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Oh wow, that's a really nice sentiment. I like that a lot. And thank you man, that's really kind and it honestly means a lot.

[@renonnib3395]

Incredible Sammy, a really wonderful series. It was such a beautiful way to present your year and it's nice that you shared that with us

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Thanks for coming along with me on this mad year!

[@Jalicia95]

Very well done, its such an achievement to have done this, it seems like its been a great year for you, thank you for sharing!

[@MaryGraceRu]

In the las couple of weeks I started watching your videos and all your work, cause I am more in to films now. And you definitely inspired me. Like seriously... I am the latest subscriber and viewer, I just watched this entire series and I am full with positivity and I have a strong wish to create awesome stuff. Hopefully, you will stay happy and positive yourself. Thanks ^^

[@DaleksRuinedMyDay]

I only just discovered this today and watched it all. Amazing stuff Sammy - you deserve a lot more attention than you are given for the content you help create.

[@CountTheLion]

This was an excellent project, and I'm really bummed I didn't discover it earlier. The project and your creativity with it have inspired me in more ways than I can count. Good luck with everything you have planned for the coming days, months and years - I'm sure it'll all be incredible.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Well you still have the back-catalogue to make your way through. And Jack's across 2015. Also thank you, that's very kind and genuinely warms me to hear.

[@CountTheLion]

I wasn't planning on replying to this, but I just watched The Fleeting Little Life of Peter Wright and it was excellent. You and Tim should be super proud, I can't imagine how much time went into it and it definitely paid off. Also, because this is KZbin and self-promotion self-promotion self-promotion, I recently posted a very heavily PMS inspired video as part of a similar series on my channel. So, y'know, if you wanted to watch it then that would be cool or whatever. Either way, congratulations on TFLLoPW - it was superb.

[@dorism5779]

This is such an awesome series, I love the idea of having something to look back on in however many years time! It's been quite inspiring to see your journey through last year, quite emotional somehow even from the point of view of a stranger. It's something I'd love to do, but my life is boring haha

[@TheWalkingDinosaur]

I'm so glad I stumbled onto this project it was so enjoyable and motivates me to do something at least a little similar

[@JESSiCO]

this was so great its sad that its over but it was such a great project I'm glad Jack and Hazel are doing it too it'll be fun to see how everyone else does it and I can't wait for the other projects you do this year!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Yeah I'm excited to see what comes of it. Jack's is 'official cannon' but I'm still interested to see how it changes based on his personality. As for Hazel's, hers is a little different from the get-go, but I enjoyed the first episode a lot.

[@primitivism]

I really enjoyed this whole PMS series, it was honestly one of the very greatest things on entire KZbin (I know) in 2014. You did a fantastic job there. I would say "this deserves wayyy more views", if it was all about the attention. Well it kinda is though. But you always co-write etc so much stuff for/with your friends with bigger channels and almost never get any attention from all the viewers for that. It even seems like you don't even want this attention, which would actually help you grow a bigger channel etc. That's a thing I really respect you for. Anyway, I really love most of your stuff so far and I'm looking forward to everything from you in 2015! PS: this is the longest I ever commented on a KZbin video. Look at it; it even has a PS

[@WhatImDoingNow]

This is a really interesting comment that actually caused me to reflect a little bit. I suppose I'm just out there to make cool stuff. I'm not all that fussed about 'playing the game' or being at the forefront of it. This comment was nice to read. It's nice to be noticed I suppose :)

[@justannathechannel]

I've loved your PMS so much, but even though I'm sure I'll miss it I'm even more sure that I'll love whatever you do next. And although these make me insanely jealous I do eventually come around to feeling inspired to make my life more exciting, so thank you for that :) I hope your 2015 is even more awesome!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Thanks dude! And yeah, hopefully the new stuff will distract the empty void I've left in your life :D

[@Greenhousebuthuman]

I cant believe its been a whole year ive been watching your pms thing :D its been awesome-amazing-brilliant! (Yes I can confirm that is a real word) so sad that it has ended but im sure by the look of the first video jack howard will do a good job carrying it on.. he better!!

[@aoifeanmacdonald2033]

Despite having already seen Louise's vlog, the bit of the Christmas thing at hers made me laugh like it was the first time I'd seen it again (which is rare for that to be possible)

[@rollingwaves1290]

enjoyed this immensely :) you're a very talented and awesome person and I wish you best of luck!

[@EdwardWhyteFilms]

What great send off to an overwhelmingly great series. Here's to Jack Howard's regeneration *party poppers*

[@WhatImDoingNow]

I don't want to go...

[@elena_designs]

hands down, it was probably the best project on youtube! can't tell you how much I enjoyed it!! even though my year wasn't even close to being as amazing as yours, it still feels like something good and major happened. through this project I kinda started looking at my own life differently and it sure helped me appreciate some things more :) thank you!! sad that you won't do it in 2015, but "Everybody's changing, and I don't feel the same" :P xxx

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Um, I don't know about that. But thank you! And wow, that's crazy. I sort of had no idea that this project was affecting people in that way. Everyone was pretty quiet about it the whole year, but now that it's over everyone is being so so lovely. It's sort of overwhelming honestly.

[@elena_designs]

***** I guess that's because other people also were still "in the process". and now that the year is over, you look back at it and notice things that shaped it, or changed in some ways. this video in particular helped reflect on my own year! sorry for making you overwhelmed :) hope you will have an even better 2015! xx

[@heavyhandedvlogs]

Absolutely bloody beautiful.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

thanks bro

[@SamMansbridge]

This was great! You and Jack inspired me to make my own monthly scrapbook this year. I uploaded the first episode a couple of days ago :D

[@WhatImDoingNow]

SamMansbridge saw. Keep 'em coming!

[@kappanova1302]

Sammy´s parents´ house is a 6/10 They gotta get up early tomorrow again

[@RumleKjaer]

Such a nice video! Thanks for making it! :)

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Thanks for watching it.

[@crimes]

So happy for the pretentious monthly bullshit montage. Will miss these.

[@Sam_Hotson]

This was amazing Sammy, then again, the whole project was pretty awesome! You're an inspiration to me in your comedy and that, so yeah, cheers for this, cheers for your work in general, truly awesome. (yes that was mushy an cliché but I don't care!)

[@SilvijaVil]

well done, this was fun to follow. :)

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Thanks for being an important part of the journey!

[@Aeshir2]

brilliant

[@RumleKjaer]

I's 4 AM screw sleep, I'm going to watch this now!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

FUCK YOU MORNING VERSION OF YOU.

[@yeshe7622]

Bloody Jack Howard

[@AliJardz]

Woah, your parents place (area?) looks crazy beautiful. Also, the highlight reel at the end was great. Made me super jealous of your life (and isn't that the point of a highlight reel?!)

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Yeah, it's mad! And thanks dude :D

[@SammyR]

Well done with all the sketches this year, THEY WERE SOME OF MY FAVOURITE VIDEOS TO DATE :D Your videos and everything have inspired me to start making short films and I would like to eventually do it as a career in the future :) Best of luck for 2015! P.S WE HAVE THE SAME NAME SO THATS COOL

[@WhatImDoingNow]

That means a lot to hear. Best of luck with everything! And yeah, nice name dude..

[@edenhope9129]

This has been a fucking RIDE man! I'm so happy everything turned out amazingly, and VERY happy you didn't give up in month 2. It's so weird, because, obviously, we don't know each other at all, but at the point in the year that you didn't know what university you were going to, I was genuinely worried. I actually thought about it and stressed for you. That's really creepy, I'm aware, but oh well. Hope 2015 is just as good as 2014.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Oh wow you were like, invested. That's a strangely strong compliment. Gosh.

[@edenhope9129]

I'm like a crazy emotional sponge.

[@madz0rs]

one day i am going to command you to dance and you had best fuckin do that exact routine.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Deal.

[@kartikjain7105]

I love these. "Let it Die" the last words were interesting. What do think of this scrapbook now? Have u seen the "mumblecore" films. Especially the ones of Andrew Bujalski and Joe swanberg. U should really watch Funny ha ha and Hannah takes the stairs (it's available on KZbin, it's one of Greta gerwigs first performance and a brilliant one). Joe swanbergs latter work is available on Netflix. Similar to Joe u were able to establish a narrative with all the improvised dialogue. I would really love if u did a movie like he does. He also has a really wonderful south by south west keynote speech. Richard Brody has some brilliant pieces of cristism of his work.

[@AmberVerberne]

Fuck I am late to the party but I bloody love this and got sad when the video ended although this freaking series ended more than 2 years ago

[@ezramay61]

I got ayoade on ayoade on christmas in 2014 too gr8 book

[@robsontrudgill1903]

Fantastic Job! Also whats the name of the song in the closing montage?

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Life in the Rear View Mirror - Will Dixon

[@ashleyharris6309]

Your dad in that last old video sounded EXACTLY like you. I thought it was staged for a second

[@mollymae8278]

re watching this because it's amazing! would it be okay if I did something similar to this? I don't want to look like I'm copying :)

[@thisisrnation]

+Molly Mae It's a great idea. Unless you happen to have the exact same life as him, which seems unlikely, I don't think it would be copying. Good luck with your film endeavors!

[@mediocresinger3510]

Thnks fr th mmrs

[@BNLNRD]

When will the London lot finally team up with NSP or Game Grumps to create something spectacular and wonderful? At least once??

[@ChrisBentley]

I was really hoping you would sing "Let it Die" in the tune of "Let it Go".

[@WhatImDoingNow]

I'll make a director's cut.

[@MarkHilton1]

what a year and what a wonderful pms or as ciaron o brien described it "protentious fucking bullshit" here's to 2015

[@WhatImDoingNow]

That's the new name of the series.

[@Crumbs_Crumbs]

Music at 2:40?

[@WhatImDoingNow]

asdfmovie8 song remix | LilDeuceDeuce

[@HonestlyHonor]

When I first read your thumbnail I thought it said "decemoer" oops xD

[@WhatImDoingNow]

I legit uploaded the title as Decombr until Bertie thankfully spotted it.

[@HonestlyHonor]

The real question here is why does spell check not exist when typing titles?!

[@SueFye]

I will miss your PMS, which sounds really weird out of context and from a complete stranger. Good luck with further projects!

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Missing PMS is weird enough. Missing someone else's? Oh man.

[@SueFye]

I know! but in this case it's your fault

[@Crumbs_Crumbs]

Ayoade on Ayoade and 12 Angry Men....That's not bad. the Pointless board game is shit tho.

[@WhatImDoingNow]

Oh and Sunset Boulevard is there also!
