Charles, an abused child, being cared for and protected by Edwin who knows he is about to die so without sharing that information tells Charles 1. Hey I’m dead and it’s not so bad 2. Look you can still interact with things 3. Look how cool you can walk through walls! Then READS him to “sleep” - a childlike experience of parental love that Charles may have never had as an abused child…. THAT SCENE THAT SCENE THAT SCENE!! All the while Edwin had been bullied, murdered and sent to hell for 70 years and HIS FIRST ACT BACK ON EARTH is to be KIND!!??????? He is the best character I love him. And it recontextualizes all his bitchiness and Charles’ forgiveness of it earlier in the show
they make me SICK I love them so MUCH
I love the parallel of both Charles and Edwin bringing a lantern to the darkest moment for the other. This is my favorite episode!!
Awwwwww noooooooo 😭
He couldn’t play with dolls so dolls played with him? Deep….and terrifying.
Now that's disturbing.
When Simon said "do you think being the way we are has to be torture" it hit me so hard because as a queer person ive had this same thought. Especially when youve just figured yourself out, its so hard. There comes a point when youre like "will it hurt forever? Am i ever going to have any positive experiences regarding this? Does being me have to be this painful?". Edwin's whole journey really hits home for me
We also didn't see that much of hell, keep in mind that Charles took a shortcut straight th Edwin, because he followed the map Edwin made backwards. Somebody blew up the photos of the map and the different pages of the notebook with all the little notes on the different levels Edwin wrote and the implications of some of them are WILD.
Where did you see these photos? I couldn't find it ☹️
@@laryssanovaes4336 ^ I also wanna know haha
The only guy not smitten with Edwin is the one he wants most -- but at least Charles will always be there for him. And they actually talked. Maybe not the ideal place to have the talk, but we didn't have to wait six seasons for it.
They we're "adult" enough to have the conversation.
I've known far too many people in my life that couldn't handle a conversation like that.
@@Syntell Yes, I thought it was good.
"Is this one of those orpheus and eurydice moments" was so funny bc what an insane thing to say after your bff has just confessed his love for you. and the fact that he never even finished the story ?? never change charles
in that scene in the limbo, charles was stunned cause he rang the bell when he first came in...
yeah, I only picked that up on the rewatch
We didn't notice what that meant until he returned.
I FLOVED the scene with Despair.
My thoughts, she showed Edwin that the way he was treating Simon was unkind... and unwise for someone who wanted out of Hell.
There better be a follow-up to this conversation.
Yes a 2nd season of The Sandman is coming. Netflix announced it some time ago, but didn't say when it was coming. I hope Dead Boys will pop up on it too. Ya Edwin's milkshake does seem to bring all the boys to the yard! I really hope Dead Boy does get another season.
It makes sense he'd confess in Hell, when they're being brave and scared and just back to "normal" and "safe" (where he wouldn't want to shake the status quo)
Edwin's confession kills me... BUT THAT TIMING THOUGH
It was drivig me crazy 🤬
Man, sort this out when you're out of hell.
@@Syntell okay, hear me out. Would Edwin have stayed in hell if Charles had rejected him? Is part Hell for him thinking he is damned to being unloved and rejected (you both picked up that the Charles and his classmate would have been taught that who they loved would have brought eternal damnation), or is part of his being able to leave hell being that he can't leave his torment without telling Charles how he feels about him? He'd just take hell with him.
[Also, production wise, it would have been really weird watching them try to have that conversation in front of an impatient Night Nurse plus Nico and Crystal]
@@OldManFerdiad Yes, and he was on the verge of having that conversation with Charles when the Night Nurse appeared. Perhaps his fear of Charles's reaction was part of what alerted the doll spider to him
@@OldManFerdiad i like hearing people's different interpretations of this scene. personally i think that edwin has relatively little self-hatred about his sexuality (especially considering the time he came from), and his repression is more about ignorance, general edwardian emotional repression, and having it drilled into his head that homosexuality isn't socially acceptable. i think he was suddenly gripped by the fear that they wouldn't make it out of hell and charles would never know how he felt. was it a totally irrational decision to stop everything and have The Talk on the stairs? yes, but not even edwin is perfectly rational all of the time :)
@@OldManFerdiadI think it’s the second option you posed. To free himself of hell and his torment he needed to make that confession or he would have brought his hell with him.
I ❤rewatching this series with you both. I was super excited when I saw that you were reacting to this series. What I loved most about this show is its themes. Each character had a moment where they had to face their fears so they could accept themselves. I believe acceptance of oneself no matter how good or bad the different parts may be is one the themes that runs through this show. Whether it is Edwin and his sexuality and feelings for Charles. Charles and his trauma from abuse. The walrus character and his desire to return to his true self or Niko and her love of love. They are all on a journey towards acceptance of themselves and their identity. Also, I loved the vulnerability of Edwin’s confession and there couldn’t be a better response than the one Charles gave. I was so sad to see that such an innocent like Edwin had to experience being killed over and over again in hell while also watching himself being eaten. This torment ends once he is able to face himself and his fears through his confession.
THIS was the throughline I was looking for. Thank you.
I think Neil Gaiman came in to write the scenes with Death and Despair, although he isn't that involved in this series, I guess he's around. The Endless siblings are (in no particular order), Dream, Desire, Despair, Destiny, Death, Destiny, and Delirium.
Destruction*
Wasn't Simon one of the boys who sacrificed Edwin? If so, one of his offences was misusing magic books (somehow representing internalised homophobia), hence the punishment.
Haha I was also screaming at them to run faster, but on reflection, I don't think Edwin felt he'd be able to confess to Charles without this imminent threat behind him. (Also this is totally my own sad thoughts with little evidence but I bet a small portion of his repressed Edwardian being still thought it was a hell worthy offence to be gay and maybe he wanted to get it over with IN hell in case he was snatched up by demons again the second he finished so as not to get his hopes up about escape.)
Show is so underestimated and surprisingly good
Acting
The villains
The meanings
Smh so good
Such wonderful villians
Edwin x Charles slow burn endgame ✋🏼😌
Charles is Edwin's ride-or-die. 😉
You gotta have one of those in your corner.
Did you guys watch Good Omens? If you liked this and Sandman you should like it as well.
Haven't watched it yet. But it's on our list for the future.
in the sandman series it's shown that despair is desire's twin sister, which suggests some interesting possibilities for their future involvement with the boys. (a lot of people have speculated that the cat king is somehow related to desire, which would make a lot of sense with his behavior & looks - i'd love to see that played out in a future season.) and despite her ominous appearance, despair is actually one of the more reasonable endless siblings. i'd much rather be in the clutches of despair than desire.
loved your reaction to this episode! looking forward to #8.
I definitely thought the cat king was somehow related to or a thrall of Desire.
I'm glad to hear others thought so, too.
The way I fully hollered in my empty house when I saw this pop up. Y'all just saved my Friday ❤
Edit after watching - the hotel lobby in hell is actually limbo. Another things I didn't realize at first is that in hell, both Edwin and Charles see their own reflections for the first time since they died. Such a great episode. Love the conversation as usual!
I was curious about the whole mirror thing.
Can you imagine not knowing what you like for over 30 years.
I see new things every time I watch, it is such a thoughtful and layered show
It's the Cat King's fault Monty was exposed. 😉
Everyone fighting for Edwins attention.
He's tired because of pride I believe. The feelings made you tired
20:34 It's not quite that cut and dry I'm afraid. I highly recommend you read Sandman: Season of Mists if you want to better understand the inner workings of this particular interpretation of hell. (I recommend all of Sandman, it's great). They seem to be incorporating the philosophy and themes from it a decent amount (namely the scene with Simon leads me to believe that). It's also where we first meet Edwin and Charles!
That pause at the top of the stairs had me yelling at the screen. 😉
LIVID!!!!!
MC's opening took me all the way out! Too funny!
Favourite episode.
Best of the series so far.
What is up people, miss you guys. I have never heard of this show, but I will be adding it to my Netflix que.
They're in Hell, and Edwin didn't belong in Hell, and Simon could be forgiven and maybe redeemed, so how do we know most or anyone in Hell is unsalvageable?
There's a few plot arcs in the very mixed Lucifer series (also originally Neil Gaiman) which back up that in this narrative, hell is of your own making so some damned souls are salvagable.
@@OldManFerdiad It was also in the Seasons of Mist Sandman arc, when Lucifer is talking to Morpheus.
@@hermeticallysealed1 yes, thanks! Couldn't remember where it was in the original comics.
Another fun episode and reaction. Thanks for posting. 😉
Glad you enjoyed it.
Finale coming up soon. See you there.
The frozen tree. The garden of suicide I think
Great review.
THANKS for this!!!
No problem!!
Almost to the finale
I am sooooo happy you guys watched this it’s my new favorite show ❤❤❤
Edwin's repressed edwardian rizz is just irresistible i guess
I had a super weird and ultra-creepy idea that the spider is made up of all of the "eaten" versions Edwin.
Each time he gets devoured, a doll is spat out as an Edwin "husk."
😉😉
One way to get demon-itized. 😜
