Victorious - The Breakfast Club vs The Breakfast Bunch

did you ever realize how similar the remake was?

[@gabsolute]

The fact that Beck is styled exactly like John but all of Johns lines were given to Jade is so funny to me 😭

[@XxKristinaaXx]

Because beck is too nice

[@arrastramealadesolacion1335]

That's because they don't have the same personality.

[@mr.abstract]

It would’ve been funnier to me if Beck became a dickhead just for one episode 😂

[@LomuHabana]

Exactly, the whole Taco thing was so confusing and uncomfortable. Being from Europe, I thought “you probably got to be American to understand it.” But now it makes perfectly sense 😂😂

[@skribbolmess]

They did good on their parody but if you never seen the movie then this whole episode feels funny, confusing and uncomfortable

[@rogue7723]

The problem with it is that it just seems to exist to be a parody of _The Breakfast Club._ This could've been cool if this was a flashback to Tori learning about how Andre, Robbie, Beck, Jade and Cat first met, but all it does is just reference an '80's movie without ingratiating it into the show's plot.

[@madsohemgee]

@@rogue7723 well it is a nickelodeon show

[@Spimplober]

It was probably that they took away most of the explicit content and all the swearing and that, it’s not the same when they take out the edge.

[@vinfudgie3466]

i watched this episode when i was younger without having watched the breakfast club and it was like my fav episode lol

[@Flo-4132]

I've never seen the movie and I loved the episode nevertheless, nothing uncomfortable about it. It's less confusing than the April fools episode

[@matthewfinis6723]

Can you imagine how confused I was watching this episode for the first time while having not seen the movie 😂😂

[@makelabailey1581]

I just finished watching the original, and I rewatched victorious numerous times since it aired. I always thought it was because the writers got bored, but watching the inspiration made it 1000x funnier, it all makes since now😂

[@efeso511]

i never watched this movie either but the dancing on the table scene is iconic so when i saw them do that i knew they were parodying the breakfast club.

[@Dani_playsgames]

I like how the episode was still good even though they replaced it with kid-friendly jokes instead

[@christhornycroft3686]

Right. They made something G rated out of something R rated, but still managed to make it creepier than the original. Knowing vaguely what happened to those kids behind the scenes makes it come off like the Cosby Show. No, we can’t swear, but CUT! Let’s go into your dressing room and you can try some Spanish Fly. I don’t trust anyone who thinks certain words are worse than actions, as long as they don’t occur on TV. These young women are scarred for life. But hey, at least they didn’t say something dirty on TV.

Lol I never understood this episode when I was a kid. Victorious Ed age demographic has not seen the breakfast club, idk why they did that without at least giving context

[@vanessabazil628]

I don’t really think that was the point. I think the breakfast club reference was more for parents who watch victorious with their kids who seen the breakfast club and this episode was about kids in Saturday detention bonding and having fun. They do that in a lot of movies and shows. Like how kids shoes will have dirty jokes but the kids don’t understand them.

[@Luis-gs4hi]

You don’t have to have seen the movie to understand the episode. You could just watch the episode for what it is

Im sure Dan loved it but it was actually referenced in the movie. The emo girl had a list of things she could do with her feet when asked about her secret talent.

[@canarychoked]

although i do think this was a cool episode idea, i wish they had stuck to one breakfast club member for each victorious character. it was kind of a annoying how they sort of randomly switched. it kind of muddied the waters, losing the such specific personalities of the characters. it sort of ruins the whole purpose of the original movie, right? i mean the whole point was that they were all so drastically unique, but still ended up getting along in the end.

[@rainy.aesthetics]

yeah, but they cannot get out of the characters. I mean Beck was the nicest in the group so he cannot have Bender's Dialogues on the other hand Jade was perfect as Allison but Alison did not have many iconic dialogues. So to give everyone equal dialogues they switched among themselves.
