Thank you for not defaulting to the cringe factor. This is the first actual take I've heard on the show.

Social media has been terrible lately because the people on our front pages are so money-obsessed that it ruins what their followers came for in the first place. I don't really blame these people for behaving the way they do on social media (barring the obvious morally unsound decisions). It's really just pitiful.

i just read about this and it’s WILD ty for commenting about it!

[@giraffe7604]

post-upload twitch discussion when!? this show was depressing to me because it shows how little most of these kids think about fame, so they either get bogged down in sponsorships or try out music which isn't any safer of a career path! it's basically magcon all over again and it's wild to me that this will continue to happen in perpetuity.

[@joysemple7253]

this a super good take on what’s underdocumented and should have been taken more seriously and why. I couldn’t have put up with watching this but I totally agree with everything you’re saying. Especially about creator stress and burnout, even when it has to do with these kids who not a lot of ppl care about as ppl.

[@Cat-fe1fg]

When I saw it on Netflix I went on a rant to my partner about Nikita and everyone else's (that I knew) controversies. Glad I can get a recap without having to watch it myself 😂 you're so strong

[@ariahyearwood9979]

I honestly feel so bad for Thomas like he trying so hard and their all just using him

[@stink..]

I was cringing when chase was acting like it’s such a burden to film a sponsored tiktok while he’s just chilling and doing nothing in his giant mansion

[@echolittle9068]

thank you for taking one for the team casey. you've done a service that can never be repaid.

[@samofsamnation7523]

Nikita uses black outrage for promotion. I will forever dislike her for that and that she shows no desire to change.

[@thelonleyUchiha1]

I like how there was an article that came out recently with some of the members admitting they made some storylines up for the show which, not shocking a lot of reality shows do that, but that makes it more sad cause whoever was in charge of making them up...kinda did a crappy job of I’m being honest...pretty lazy job imo but I’m not shocked lol

[@ebbandflow8359]

I came into the video sort of wanting a vicious drag at these people, but you came (and do so consistently) with more compassion for their situation than I did. It put a lot of stuff in perspective for me, and I've got to thank you for that.

[@mousethakidvideos8507]

Your ability to tell the story of the show with using little to no footage of the show is awesome!!

[@soph_maz]

influencers want to be celebrities but they aren’t and they need to realize it

[@sigmalpha_testostronewolf]

I’ve just realized that you have zella day in the background, that’s so cool shes one my favorite artists 😭😭

[@floatingsmiley]

We love the highlights (in your hair). ✨

[@Evanz111]

I just found out about this show for the first time (somehow) and wanted to see some coverage of it, I didn’t care from who, so I searched “hype house Netflix” into KZbin and was happily surprised when I saw your video at the top! I love your content, and if there’s anyone I would love to cover this show then it’s you!

[@beth-bi9yv]

Yeah, I find a lot of these 'documentary ' style tv deep dives don't ask the necessary questions. It's always just a skin deep dive into whatever topic.

[@Starburst514]

It's kinda like the Dixie and Charli"s show, you expected it to be cringe but it's more sad and a interesting look into young people being worked to the bone in a new environment that is internet influence. It's kinda interesting cause it kinda feels like both shows were trying to jump on the gap that shows like keeping up with the Kardashians left, but the environment has changed so much. Not just reality-type TV but how these types of influencers interact with the public and how audiences see them. If these shows came out in 2017 it may have been really different (I feel like in that short time the climate has changed so much which idk is cause of the pandemic or how Internet trends come and go like 10x faster than irl) And how we see reality type stuff, and events happening in realtime with these influencers being on social media vs how long it take a show to come out

[@thelonleyUchiha1]

What’s even sadder with Charli and Dixie is the show is about them and their family so there even more stuck in this siduation especially charli cause she was under 18 while filming it so she’s kinda stuck doing what her parents ask. At least the hype house guys are doing this semi on the own and if they don’t want to anymore they can quit but charli (and Dixie despite being an adult) are kinda stuck cause their parents are involved now as it’s clear how much they want fame and money at the exspences of their daughters

[@Starburst514]

@@thelonleyUchiha1 Yeah excatly! Even more sad, I felt so bad for them, I mean they're just normal kids being pushed into it

[@wavy6686]

really liked the way you approached ur commentary about this show. great vid as usual ♥️

[@stephenstrange4245]

I don't understand what Californians mean when they say they're going to the desert. Is it like camping? Do they pitch tents? Is there stuff to see or do they just sit in the sand?

[@bekcha4170]

Your take on this things is always so pleasant to watch because you always make very good points

[@cutcreaser]

ive been WAITIN FOR THIS ONE

LOVE YOUUUU 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@bunnyfrosting1744]

Man I’m chronically ill and my disability assistance doesn’t cover necessary surgeries, my teeth need immediate care & the daily pain is changing me as a person. Hearing that they make $80k via sponsors might just be enough to convince me into downloading tiktok ☠️ jfc

[@Siilahsilas]

This is my first time seeing you on KZbin and now that i saw the Zella Day EP on the wall, i know im here to stay.

[@jax422]

$80,000/month would cover a $10M mortgage. Why would you rent?!? If it is a business, that’s a stupid investment.

[@ellapatterson8975]

I def agree w the critiques you’re making and would be interested to hear your thoughts on the d’amelio show ! i’ve only watched a few episodes but I feel like it explored the burnout of creators and their interior lives in a much stronger way

[@lolapeet9281]

If you haven't already, watch Drew Gooden's video on the d'amelio show. He's really thoughtful and kind towards the kids

[@gab.bee123]

gonna just go ahead and parrot other comments and say how great this video is. it's always refreshing to see other creators look at the tiktok crew with empathy and nuance rather than just sticking to the "haha tiktok is so cringe" viewpoint that seemingly abandons the idea that these teens and twentysomethings are people first. not always the most responsible or respectful people, but still. reminds me of drew gooden's video about the charli d'amelio show

[@MintyVoid]

hard to tackle something like creating a health work to life balance when you don't know what that is. No one is taught how to do anything in the 'adult world', we are so ill prepared on a physical an mental level it's redonk. It leads to a majority of adults being emotionally immature and being less skilled in critical thinking, two things that are so fucking important and effect arguably every aspect of a persons life. We still don't have 'regular' jobs functioning to support its workers, so the crazy increase of these new ones over the course of these past 10ish years has just further made the issue of my point before not only more highlighted but worse. Right back to 'suck it up so you don't lose your home' instead of actual support and safety.

[@queentrinicorn9441]

It’s giving ✨ late-stage capitalism ✨

[@Sofianova17]

I appreciate this comment.

[@angelicvega7040]

I was so offended by seeing this show on my recommended. I don’t even watch reality tv and I steer clear of TikTok and this junk on KZbin so I wanted that sh!t off my main page ASAP lol

[@bettip4331]

i love the sling record in the background omg one of my favorite albums

[@nikkiminerva]

clairo's sling in the background

[@imjustdandy9799]

So lemme get this straight, Nikita thinks that people will hold her to a lower standard...if she looks black...got it.
