[@elijaht4193]

NOTES ~~~~~~~ 1) Started in early 19th century 2) mixture of sentimental comedies and tragedy 3) dog melodramas? 4) 4 middle class (illiterate) 5) melodrama began in France 6) melodrama was used to get theatre without license 7) exiting stories (happy endings) 8) 6 stock characters.. (photos) 9: different interments for different stock characters 10: very exaggerated... showing emotions... Lmao yeah this is my notes... I don’t have paper and school is killing me...

[@jacoboy2717]

for working class*

[@melonlord1414]

isn't it kinda ironic that the first time someone saved someone else from being tied to a railroad track on stage was a woman who saved a guy. I mean, I saw this scene like a hundred times the other way around.

[@megantaylor3946]

What?? I was rooting for Laura and Snorky

[@Elohist2009]

“And these are the women who ain’t to have a vote!” That’s a pretty woke line for 19th century theater

[@jingyasun6292]

The girl totally should've left the captain guy. If he really liked her he would've been willing to work past her past.

[@horizon241]

This is a series where the host, the writers, the editors, the animators, and many others come together and make something great. Thank you!

[@joelGi]

funny how most people just come here to comment first. its a 12 minute long video that was released 5 minutes ago.Calm down, enjoy, and understand it first before commenting.

[@RangerRuby]

Great Video! I love how Crash Course is so in-depth and is so interesting! I love Theater and I love this video! Thanks! DFTBA!

[@jeanpaulwarrior]

i had to watch this video for my drama homework. i don't regret watching this

[@crazyilu]

Alex Hughes same here

[@RainbowMilk1996]

Laura is too good for Captain Trafford

[@MasqueTheRedDeathDJ]

This theatre series is SOOOO good... Would love to know if they are thinking of writing a book on the videos they made, would definetely buy it !

[@ms.rstake_1211]

👍 it should have been on their minds by now

[@MasqueTheRedDeathDJ]

Oma Rumunna would be so, so, so cool!!!

[@CosmiaNebula]

Let's see. Mean Villain: Bowser Sensitive Hero: Mario? Persecuted Heroine: Peach Clown: That mushroom boy? Faithful Friend: Yoshi Villain's Accomplice: The turtle on a cloud?

[@SamSphinx]

Luigi is definitely the clown, no?

[@mjr_schneider]

Can we take a moment to appreciate just how hilarious bassoons are?

[@BrianHutzellMusic]

Almost as funny as trombones!

[@Bengun67]

Brilliantly done, also fun to watch . More power to you, Sir.

[@realmaml]

I chortled heartily at that "bourgeois tragedy" burn.

[@jacobdoesstuff6178]

I really love this channel! It has so much variety in it's topics, and everything is researched and presented so well. The presenter for this course is especially good(he's the one from the old idea channel, right?!) And the course is seriously cool. The channel has actually been one of the channels that inspired me to make my own youtube-channel in sort of the same vein(with different sciency topics). Of course, I'm not nearly as professional, I've just uploaded a few videos, but I hope to be in the future, because I really love to make videos.

[@fandomliferocks5245]

I just want to give so many kudos to this guy for narrating these stories in such an interesting, funny and enjoyable way! Thank you Mike Rugnetta! Thanks for amazing content, guys! This is not only a god help for , particularly in my case, theatre homework, but a wonderful overall educative lessons! Keep it up, please! And also, gotta give huge love to the thoughtbubbles' animations :") so cute!

[@evanrigel954]

2:15 is that a little john green?

[@radagastwiz]

Yes! 'The Sound and the Fury' is a reference to John's Reddit handle.

[@clericneokun]

10:20 We should have a remake of this play with Batman actually fultoning the bad guy straight to Outer Heaven.

[@gollum1ring]

Yay! The Astor Place Riot is next! I wrote a play about that a few years aback. And while doing my research, I found out I was hardly the first, so the lesson is that thespians love plays about how dangerous the theater itself is-- a place where humanity from all classes intermingles while new and revolutionary ideas are expressed.

[@Alex-fn2hl]

Bike was kidnapped by Batman via Fulton device i guess

[@zeevtarantov]

What about Gilbert and Sullivan?

[@pissant2942]

using this for my essay on melodrama ! this video is so helpful :)

[@Nusrich_06]

4:41 Snuffles who is also called Snowball :)

[@unleashingpotential-psycho9433]

Theater is so interesting.

[@JenCoYT]

Please can this course never end

[@katherinepagan4860]

I need to see the dog melodramas

[@mwangimacharia861]

Anybody else exclaim in delight at the Rick and Morty shoutout??😂😂

[@เรียนภาษาอังกฤษวันนี้]

03:13 Goethe is so badass. People should know more about him.

[@lakrids-pibe]

I would love to hear your argument about the bourgeois tragedies of Hollywood.

[@Heavy2deep]

Love your work, sir

[@Marco_Onyxheart]

4:40 Revenge is a treat best served cold.

[@D1D1A5K]

thanks for the homework mate

[@alonealien1474]

Was that Snowball aka Snuffles, from "Rick and Morty"? That was one melodramatic dog!

[@Emthe30something]

I love the ending/preview for the next episode.

[@Thepurrletarian]

10:25 You mean chom choms, right?

[@mercurialhypersprite9556]

So I don't really come here for the jokes, but uh... gotta admit... that bit about Hollywood movies being Bourgeois tragedies... really brightened my day.

[@trusarmor4957]

8:39 still better than Twilight

[@stini334]

As a professional bassoon player, I take it as a compliment that we are hilarious.

[@camiloiribarren1450]

Now onto the Enlightenment era and loving your lessons

[@JaimeNyx15]

*Video ends*... Gonna go look up Dionysius Boucicault and Augustin Daly. Hello rabbit hole, HERE I COME!

[@geoffreywinn4031]

[@arubak1862]

[@nekkidnora]

[@PoeticPoppa]

[@theatreartfun2975]

Informative

[@pekcamkee1868]

[@leiahgracemccaslanddowney2085]

Can we get sources for this @crashcourse ?

[@CrazyKungfuGirl]

Will you ever cover 19th century ballet or is that not under your definition of theater

[@yuuneeq9494]

More dog plays

[@sydneybezanson5348]

I kinda ship Laura and Snorky ngl

[@bill8429]

Cool that there was a Gotham by Gaslight easter egg.

[@swargpatel7634]

Awesome!

[@Suite_annamite]

*@**8:11** - **8:23**: Looks like every domain of work has their own little Thomas Edison!*

[@evanrigel954]

and... they're also worried about trains

[@Abonnerageux01]

Yes this is school work

[@miekekuppen9275]

Yay for happy endings! Bourgeois or not, if I want horror I´ll watch the news.

[@ms.rstake_1211]

[@ruthielalastor2209]

Alas, it is too late that i be a daughter of obscurity and crime.

[@LilSk1tty]

Hi

[@poil8351]

so basically every mexican telenovella and korean dramas are basically melodramas on steroids.

[@DanisDiamonds]

we told you this was melodrama...

[@xlxerachablebibu5408]

RIP Mac Miller

[@lhfirex]

Daughters of obscurity and crime sound like the best women.

[@isabellabrown6463]

Who else has this for hw-

[@shahriariftekhar2558]

make videos about ethics, human rights, laws, and justice

[@allthisfear]

Going out is for the poor.

[@lookb4Uleep]

did we miss oscar wilde? I feel like we missed oscar wilde. shameful.

[@chrisforsyth8323]

Sure, where are all the pronunciation police today? What, if it isn't in Japanese or Hindi, no-one cares? Now I just have to pay attention to the excellent content. You cowards.

[@fite-4-ever876]

If you guys want to explore a complex under discussed form of theater, try pro wrestling

[@adrianaslund8605]

Sounds like anime. Well with how ostentatious and silly it is.

[@jasonspreyer6009]

What about Richard Wagner and his plays ?

[@imperator9343]

You mean the guy that wasn't even born until the 19th century? Why would he be in an episode about 18th century melodrama?

[@jasonspreyer6009]

I mean theater's in the future of crash course theaters episodes

[@imperator9343]

@@jasonspreyer6009 it's hard not to be snarky about this, but it's difficult to imagine that they'd just pass over one of like 3 playwrights that the average English-speaker would recognize.

[@jasonspreyer6009]

I'm just saying

[@dark3l3m3ntstheparanormal7]

[@monagarcia1803]

Lorde’s melodrama might have been a little more interesting of a topic

[@user-zo3wy4we3t]

Why do we learn other languages and instead make the rest of the world learn English because it is the most prominent language. They learn English while we English speakers learn theirs.

[@diablo.the.cheater]

In fact, spanish and chinese are more spoken than english
