THEY KISSED & I LITERALLY CRIED | Heartstopper Season 1 Episode 3 REACTION!

[@Luusie]

One of the (million) very cool things about Heartstopper is the fact that they lean into all kinds of romantic tropes but at the same time subvert expectations left, right and centre. ❤

[@kynicole]

heartstopper is FOR THE PEOPLE 🥺 everything we could ever want

[@nikshaniksha9956]

Disgusting

[@0FynnFish0]

There is just one writer for this Show and it's the original creator, Alice Oseman. She's a freaking genius!

[@benp3592]

Absolutely she is something else. I think almost everyone who watches heartstopper experiences something completely different than other shows. There are a number of decent, positive LGBT teen shows but heartstopper stands out.

[@saschabittner8155]

One thing I love about Nick is by this point he knows what he's feeling, and he could have even nicely distanced himself from Charlie (He would NEVER be mean about it, just not him ) but he still asks him to the party, even though he is scared about what he is feeling for Charlie (And I think has to know Charlie has liked him since they first hung out. ) and what it may mean for his place in school. Almost every time he has a choice, he makes the brave one.

[@Andrew-xd4df]

"Just grab his damn hand, I'm sick of this shit." 🤣 I love your video. As a gay man now in his fifties I wish I had witnessed the queer joy in Tara and Darcy's kiss when I was Nick's age. Peace.

[@davidd6759]

I'm in my fifties too and wish I had this growing up as a closeted chubby gay boy in the midwest with conservative parents and knowing no other gay people. Only seeing an occasional gay person on TV or in movies. They were always portrayed as the bad or 'sick' person. This show would have helped me SOOO much.

[@Andrew-xd4df]

@@davidd6759 Yes, the only representation I saw was that of someone outside of the crowd, the outsider, or the camp figure of fun. Definitely no-one considered 'normal'. I love that this show has the guts to normalise everyone in such an unapologetically positive way.

[@GretchenV95]

Ive rewatched the show about three times now and this kiss scene still makes me cry. It’s one of the most raw, tender, and just… beautiful kiss scenes I’ve ever seen. ❤❤😢

[@georgenorris2657]

Probably the most moving episode of a show I have ever seen. As you say: just perfect. I have seen it loads of times now and it moves me just as much now as the first time I saw it.

[@sadfaery]

Your reaction to and comments about this episode are basically exactly what I thought (and still think) about this episode when I first saw it. It is just SO well done. And did you notice the look on Tara's face when Nick first mentioned Charlie? I think she realizes that Nick has feelings for Charlie beyond just friendship, but she didn't push him at all to say more than he was comfortable with. Before that, when Nick asked her why she was telling him she was a lesbian, the tone of his voice and look on his face suggested to me that maybe HE thought she was telling him because she saw some quality of queerness in him. That wasn't the case, but I feel like it captured that feeling of fear of people figuring out that you might not be straight when you're still coming to terms with it yourself. God, this show is just SO good, and so well done, with so many small details and so much nuance packed into just a few short but incredible episodes.

[@slm_766]

When Harry invited Nick to the 16th Birthday party, he told Nick he had to bring along some 'cool' people. Imogen was hanging out at the same picnic table and heard that. Imogen and Nick have been friends since Year 7 (for 5 years). Nick felt it was ok to invite this long-time friend to the party, just as Harry asked. Imogen does have a small crush on Nick but Nick is oblivious to that. (Imogen becomes less 'ditzy' as time goes on; she actually does some really positive things in future episodes.)

[@jaybatemen4497]

Love your reviews not Loud and every second stopping and talking. Your awesome

[@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

Yes, it was so lovely to see a friend’s Mum be so supportive of his trans friend. Like… this is the world trans people deserve. It’s the world-where adults are decent people-all LGBTQ people deserve.

[@niksaksani9331]

Hahaha, please stop dramatizing and playing the victim. Do you really think anyone cares who and what you are?

[@ChespinCraft]

@@niksaksani9331 yes, a lot of people care. That’s why 240 anti-trans bills were passed this year alone.

[@fionatsang9353]

Absolutely, well said! I love that in the Heartstopper universe, this level of acceptance and support is established as the bare minimum trans folx deserve; and when that standard isn't met, like the teacher who deadnames Elle, it is decisively called out as the transphobia that it is

[@becksyno7]

You are an amazing reactor. I loved this episode too, it was done perfectly as was your reaction

[@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

Everything about the show is superb from start to finish and the acting of the primary leads is hands down better than what is seen in most coming of age or any programming. Not that other programs don’t have good scenes, but here it’s unrelentingly excellent by the leads and generally with the other actors.

[@sanneannelies843]

I agree with you about queer kisses on screen. I have watched so many shows, where the kiss, is like 1 sec or cut off, fade to black or interupped. And the straight kisses are long and romantic etc. I get so frustrated watching stuff like that. It happend to Malec in shadowhunters as well, love the pairing but it wasn't really treated like the straight couples when it came to the kissing scenes. When Nick and Charlie kissed, I was like damn that is a long kiss and well done. Also with Tara and Darcy. ❤🌈 Congrats!!! So happy to hear you are engaged to someone you love❤🥰

[@LateAnt]

Your intuition is on point with this show! Loving your reactions and thoughts so far. You're going to love the rest of the show!

[@bogumibogda3299]

And cry a river...

[@tymemclight2756]

The best scene is Nick's smile when he sees Tara and Darcy kissing. You can see the per joy he was feeling at that moment 🤗

[@rodmaxd]

It is so wild that we are all having the same reactions and experiences with this show. This show is on a different level.

[@TBHNotGonnaLie]

Best tv show I've seen in a very long time. Especially because we've been traumatised by other LGBTQIA shows that are dark and gritty it's such a joy to see positive representation...I just wish I had this show when I was younger

[@dielen2372]

You made me cry!! ♥And I also like the dynamic of this series. They present you a problem and almost immediately is solved. It's like you don't have to wait half of a season to see things clear up.

[@bogumibogda3299]

The characters communicate, most of the time, and weirdly enough it creates a perfect drama.

[@UliFandoms]

Hey Nicole. I only today stumbled upon your Heartstopper reactions. But I immediately fell in love with the amazing and sensitive way you watch the scenes and show your pure emotions and right away have such intuitiv insight into what's going on in all the characters minds. Also, I'm a huge Nick fangirl too 😉

[@slm_766]

At the party, when Nick converses with Tara and she says she's a lesbian -- he's not likely to 'come out' to anybody yet. He has not decided what he would come out as, yet.

[@jaybatemen4497]

I've experienced this without really understanding it. Always guys a little older than myself. And, even to this day. My husband is Nick, Well not that Nick. But, There is a Kit Connor hitting me up from one of the sites, I want to ask him to open his cam for just a second to prove its him. His profile says, Generally responds in a few hours. I would f-ing go to the UK to mert him.

[@mgkyungbludfan1581]

I absolutly love this show! Nick and Charlie are so adorable together. I can wait for season 2.

[@grvcas]

you literally have become one of my fav reactors 🙌 i am smiling like an idiot while watching this over again

[@stephenkeoughan4994]

I love the show and have watched a ton of reaction videos. You are not the first person to comment about the possibility of the kiss being interrupted but I like that you added the fact that it happens way too much. I found it very realistic as well. Good call. I like the extended chats at the end as well. WELL DONE.

[@BrownsBacker]

Is there ANYTHING in your entire life that puts everything you've felt since you were a child into perspective than the first time you kiss a person of your own sex and all of a sudden.....things begin to make sense....and nothing will EVER be better or more frightening to you.....or more natural.

[@nikshaniksha9956]

You mean unnatural

THANK YOU sow much for your comments and advice i really appreciate it 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰now I understand what's going on and why Nick and Charle a but this episode 😍thanks in advance again( .p.s a but Charles runn to his Father on the End

[@jaybatemen4497]

Each comment here tells exactly how each commentor cane out, like this love story, Some just just got bent over behind some bleechers on Sunday before school.

[@slm_766]

This show moves at a slower pace. Nick has a ways to go before he decides who he is, including what his specific sexuality is. It's best to watch this with a wait and see approach -- to see what actually will happen, rather than wanting the story to fit a prerconceived mold.

[@hellowan93]

Omg i remember watching u during all AHS series! Finally found u again with my favourite Netflix show

[@MemphisTiger]

Only thing I will say...don't be too hard on Imogene. She is a really good friend to Nick. A friend who just has a crush on the wrong guy. You'll like her. I promise you she's not a "bitch" at all. Let me also say...your reaction brought me to tears.

[@benp3592]

I love how many predictions you make without meaning to necessarily lol. Spot on about a lot.

[@fabriisheruu]

THKS for this! Im loving your reactions!

[@jaybatemen4497]

Being a gay dude can I just say each of us aren't just gay. We are different. And, come out in different ways. Some in the closet, Some decorating the closet, Some stealing from Sister or moms closet. We come out different. And, it's all influenced by those you hang out with in the life. I personally was in the crowd, But, was different than the friends I loved, By men attracted to me them saying dude there are 3 types of gays the street see. Fish/Trish/Trade. Just trying to school you so you can make informed choices. I'm He/Him btw. But, I began to understand. I use to tell dudes hitting on me, I've only been gay for 3 days.lmmfao I swear. I love every firm of the lgbtq community. But, Biy Fish/Trish I couldn't bring to my family girlfriends or the Hood. i made the right choice for myself.

[@RobOlivierbjr64]

Congratulations on your engagement 🌈☺️

[@nekoneko5777]

the way people hating Imogen with no reason always pisses me off🤢 Charlie has a crush on Nick, She has a crush on Nick, what's different? she looks confident n Charlie doesn't? so? she's just a kid having a crush on a boy who she's hanging out every morning, Nick also invited her to the party, of course she expected something, she has no idea of Nick's actual sexuality, she has no idea who Nick's really into coz he's hiding it, she just doesn't deserve the hate. she definitely doesn't deserve to be called ''b*tch''🤮

[@HasnaaAlaa]

I love this show so much, i am so tired of Qbaiting in shows, this has been a breath of fresh air

[@gervaischouinard9809]

Nick will talk in later episode (Girls) to Tara about Charlie and it is a nice episode before the penultimate one (Bully) which is shit!

[@biancaandaerin796]

And when are you gonna start watching Stranger Things season four of your sister Yes I’m about to see your videos to

[@Kamandi2]

You were being really really harsh and judgmental when it came to Imogene. Remember, she’s a 15/16 year old girl who has a crush on Nick and as far as she knows he’s straight and single and they’ve been friends for years. She’s putting herself out there which is one of the bravest things she could do. And when she asks him if he likes her he doesn’t tell her no. It’s no different than Charlie having a crush on Nick and thinking that something more could be there. It’s not like she has evil intentions to keep him away from Charlie. You were harsher on her than you were on Harry and he was a complete homophobic jerk! 🙂 But this episode was amazing. That first kiss between Charlie and Nick was everything. I can’t tell you how many tears of joy I cried in this episode ❤️

[@kynicole]

i wasn't meaning to be! i'm more so being dramatic because i don't want anyone to come between Nick and Charlie!! i don't blame her though.

[@stephenkeoughan4994]

Please do not read the comics until all the seasons are over. They are keeping very close to the written comics and I fear it might affect your reactions. Season 1 comes from the first 2 comics/books.
