Why Is Beth So Boy Crazy?

An analysis about Beth, The Wannabee.

[@Robert___98]

22:34 I was about to correct this part of the video that she's clearly yelling "Yeah!", but I went and revisited the song and kept the soundbyte going a bit longer, and she actually does go on to say "Yeah, Harold!" within the clip shortly after if you guys go and look. Was just a minor editing glitch, but I felt necessary to point it out because I want all evidence of Harold praise by his peers to never be unnoticed.

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Ughhhh how the fuck did I get this wrong. Thanks so much for pointing this out.

[@greenscarf1063]

Never realized how much rizz Harold had

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Beth, LeShawna, Heather, Gwen and a legion of chick fans

Heather kicked Beth out of the alliance because she said the N word.

Ye that was entirely Beth's faul t

[@MyraHeartss]

seriously like how could she yk?

[@LAUGHING_G4S]

Aka no

[@youraveragenickel2177]

I actually really like Beth and how terrible she can be sometimes lol. I love how the longer Action goes, the more she seems to believe that she's the main character on a wattpad fanfiction who everyone loves for being so nice with multiple guys fawning over her. It's such a funny way to lean into her label and I adore it. Also, on the whole cheating thing: she and Brady went on one date. There is no way they were exclusive after knowing each other for a single day. Tbh I don't blame her (that much) for keeping her options open. She still fumbled the bag though.

[@Stupidfunnelol2288]

If I were to pick between Brady or Harold. I’d pick Harold. He’s got a ten pack after all and mad skills and doesn’t wipe his ass properly

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Harold was born to shit and forced to wipe.

[@bluraspbery]

Tbh her old beta design was cute, would have loved to see it in the total drama art style

[@yimmyb1459]

'before 2008 a space owen... well, firstly, action was good' the holler i just hollered

[@flourrrr]

21:53 i couldn't care less if harold's ego was as big as the moon, this scene is FUNNNY BRO

[@nicholassims9837]

Fun fact Brady's character model was later used for Alejandro's older brother with dark skin instead of light

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Oh my god you’re right.

[@flourrrr]

you should make more analysises of other gen 1 characters beth is my least favorite gen 1 contestant yet i found the way you looked into these little details absolutley entertaining i would watch it all tbh your work is really good

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Harold, LeShawna, Noah, Duncan, Courtney and Heather are all characters I'd love to do videos on in the future. Same with Owen and Izzy on a smaller scale.

[@flourrrr]

@@voiceunderthecovers probably not popular characters actually, i enjoy the underdog analysises like blainley and beth we already know a lot from the main characters so its nice to see something from characters one would deem underrated

[@voiceunderthecovers]

@@flourrrr there are plenty to pick from in Pahkitew and RR, though it’s also kinda hard to choose a gen 1 character people don’t already love (the only ones left are Sierra, Sadie, Katie and Eva, really)

[@lmAmazingAndAwesome]

I love how you call Harold and Beth narcissists, and, aside from Heather, Alejandro and Courtney, now I'm starting to notice a few more narcissistic characters

[@polar6066]

i feel when ppl like redditors want to ""fix"" tdi characters they often end up with very boring characters that always learn from their mistakes the first time, or are people that never do any wrong, or are some lame slay queen character ive never understood the inmense levels of hate beth had like for starters she didnt attempt murder or didnt purposefully bully their ex i never understoof her relationship with brady that much though, it seems they rather they know each other than being in an actual relationship

[@voiceunderthecovers]

My favorite video on the internet: not a writer fixes thing!

[@user-fc3xd3yi3i]

In my opinion Justin was talking about himself because he was looking at his reflection on her teeth

[@Valarieeexx]

Beth is definitely in my top ten favorite characters, she deserves her win, and also fits her stereotype perfectly.

The Bluey Character on the Bingo board is crazy😭🙏

I love this video because it means that more people will get to understand one of my favorite characters!

I actually have a theory that Cody & Beth are brother & sister, but that’s just a theory a game theory

why didn’t they arrive together then? Or live together?

YAY BETH ANALYSIS!! SHE'S KINDA MY GUILTY PLEASURE CHARACTER😖😭 I LOVE IT

[@blackcatiscool]

let all be honest the pole is the best looking of all the boy beth like

[@bonkbonk02368]

Genuine question, how'd you pick up that heather likes Harold? Out of my 20+ rewatches and many commentary analysis/reviews of the series, this is a first. Btw, ngl, i like Beth to a certain extent. Like the way she dresses and has a cheap personality in a way. It's relatable ngl. I mean i dont really like her whole boy craziness arc but yeah i still love the idea of her and her background shaping who she is

[@voiceunderthecovers]

It’s hinted at in the Aftermath 3 that she has a thing for him on the same level as LeShawna, when she imitates his num-yo playing. You could totally interpret it as her just finding him cool or something, but stacked with their interactions in the Island special and the context of the Aftermath scene, I feel like it’s quite apparent that Heather is fond of him.

[@mek2472]

I wouldn’t mind if Heather had a crush on Harold i’d liked them as anything but enemies tbh Platonic, Lovers, one having a crush on the other infact i loved their dynamic so much in action i had a headcanon that they watch danganronpa with no commentary together And Heather is a huge Danganronpa fan and her favorite characters are Nagito, Kiriumi, Gonta (Gonta reminds her of DJ), Miu (she ironically loves her), Celesta (She reminds her of herself alot), Sakura (also reminds her of DJ), Junko (she likes crazy bitches after Sierra) Harold used to find danganronpa mid but watches it with Heather because A. He lowkey is lonely B. It’s funny af C. He likes murder mystery as a genre D. He lowkey likes hanging out with Heather and E. He likes seeing anime girls for their nice big plotlines

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Love this headcanon. I honestly love the idea of Harold and Heather dating post Action and that’s why LeShawna and Harold never interact until the next season pops up. They broke up, mainly because Heather was too jealous of Harold playing into his fanbase, which is why Harold wanted to go solo with the drama brothers, too.

[@rektbiich4585]

She was my fav character and i think she isnt as bad as ppl make her to be, she is no way on the level of pakhitew/ all stars characters , but its just people loving other characters more than her that they hated her , with the whole theory that Lindsay should have been the winner and not Beth( false btw, since ep 1 its hinted Beth is one of the main ones, while Duncan came out of nowhere as a finalist)

[@voiceunderthecovers]

“Came out of nowhere”? It’s not like he was the main character of the season or anything

[@RudolphJacksonLightning]

When hou used the persona 3 Reload music I had to lock in on the video lol. Yuko did not deserve that😭😭😭

[@twinberwolves4231]

I like Beth, she fits her label really well.

[@J-G9991]

Don't know if you remember, but it wasn't mentioned that (in what is their last canonical appearances) in Revenge episode 1, she's seem admiring Justin again on the boat. I guess he found a new charming trick like the hair flip or something lol.

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Oh that’s true! Forgot about that damned yacht scene (it always seems to introduce or complicate new plot threads that are never explored again!)

[@J-G9991]

@@voiceunderthecovers Yeah. In this case, I feel like it's pretty much what you said in the video, but I'll say in harsher words: Lazy writers recycling resolved plot points/finished relationships with no explanation. Although you could headcanon that the fact he was in a boyband between Action and ROTI (and she seems to love those) might've been the reason.

[@voiceunderthecovers]

@@J-G9991 Yeah, I dig the second reason more (because I'd rather not use out of universe reasoning to explain in universe stuff) but you are correct in saying that the writers really just wanted Beth to be horny over Justin because it's funnier than her having agency (even though Beth is just as funny when she's crushing on Harold over Justin but whatever)

[@JTBROS69]

please do sierra from td

[@joelprince4170]

@14:37 it's crazy but unfortunately True. I have seen comments on Different forums on the reason why they don't like Beth is because she is not pretty. Pretty privilege is real it helps. meanwhile they will stan courtney. She sometimes awful but because she is seen as pretty she gets abit more of a pass for her crappy behavior.

[@voiceunderthecovers]

Pretty privilege is so real. I remember back in high school there were two people who had a serious alternative style in all of the school - me and this really ridiculously good looking chick. She was a cruel bitch who manipulated people and I just minded my own business and tried to finish classes. Guess who was bullied relentlessly.

[@joelprince4170]

@@voiceunderthecovers I believe you. I have seen pretty privilege in my own life it's crazy.As a society we very shallow. I always try my best to treat people with common curiosity and respect. Pretty or not.

Please, next do an analysis about -my girlfriend- Sierra

[@voiceunderthecovers]

I did one a while back on if she had killed Cody before AS or not, but I do like the idea of exploring her more.

[@TinyRiver97]

@@voiceunderthecovers YES! Specially because she's not only another Cody fangirl, she's even MORE than that; just like in her debut at Total Drama Action (Episode 27) Special Celebrity Manhunt, she gave a beautiful speech to inspare everyone to be famous again. And also she's totally NOT an abuser as some haters say. I could talk forever about everything I love about Sierra, but I have things to do IRL
