Love seeing your different opinions lol keep em coming!
Euphorias character Ashtray is waayyy more intimidating than Tedros 😭
Very true, Rip 😞
Ashtray would DESTROY Tedros
Well, Ashtray is actually intimidating. You should have say: Cassie was more intimidating than Tedros to drive the point across.
@@inabsolutedarkness13 The point is that a child IS more intimidating then Tedros. Other characters you could compare is Nate, maddie, lorie,, way more reason to fear them than Abel’s portrayal of this character 😭 Cassie I guess. She’s just unstable and cry’s a lotttt. She’s a perfect target for tedros
Facts😭
Remove Tedros and the show honestly would be 10x better 😂
💯💯💯
I can't put up with him anymore
Tejros is the best part
@@kingbrolythedeity.absolutely not
The show would be boring without a bad guy lil bro
Or just get an actual ACTOR
Tedros is the least intimidating person I've ever seen and that rat tail doesn't help either
His soprano voice sounds like such a lil bitch next to Lilyrose’s deep husky smokers voice. It takes me right out of Tedros “intense” scenes
I literally laughed at the scenes where he was trying to be scary 🙈
Rat tail LMAO
@@patytocuaccuacNo but would you really be intimated by a short dude with a rat tail 😭
Idk if it's intentional but him trying to be intimidating is hilarious af
How does Lily Rose Depp manage to just giggle whenever that man kisses her. Real talent
God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers
exactly
I wonder if they really filmed the explicit sex scenes or made it look like they are doing it
@@kornbsblinkindazeevanmoomoobpthey never actually have sex in movies and shows, its just better and more effective for the filming process if they fake it, so there's like padding covering their no no spots and the rest is just pure acting
Only Leia has my sympathy in this show.
Periodt, that's my girl
the 13 crew members stated that Levinson and the Weeknd scrapped 80% of the original cut and reshoot it to their needs... you can tell which parts they didn't cut out
You could tell that the scene with her constantly redoing the dance and breaking down was an original part, that scene was amazing
I really wish we could see the original cut with a more female centered perspective 😢
I just don’t feel like it’s good writing to have him beat her with the brush. There are so many alternative ways to show Tedros is replacing her mother, without being sooo literal. It’s way too on the nose to say “hey, get the hairbrush and let me hit you so you go back to normal”! Clearly they chose to write it that way for shock value. But the most shocking choice isn’t always the clever choice. The writing there wasn’t clever imho, and it kinda put me off continuing this show, which is a shame bc that dinner table scene 🎬 👌 !!
Does anybody else get the sense that this show thinks it’s way cleverer and deeper than it actually is? I’m finding it quite indulgent, pretentious, and shallow. Just my honest opinion, if other people love it, good for them but after that hairbrush scene, I think I’ve seen all I need to see from this show and it’s poor plot development 😅
I agree, there's no subtlety
@@lookaftering5638when he started moving his hands like a conductor for absolutely no reason. Get it?! Cuz hes orchestrating the whole thing?! Like we get it.
He’s a cult leader and tortures izaak with electricity.
I agree after that hair brush scene I'm mf out
@@brendakagyekum92I agree. It was way too far.
I think that they could have shown them having a nice moment by him brushing her hair doing something actually nice, so we could understand why she actually likes him?
It's glorifying abuse, this is a red pill dude's fantasy
it’s criticising abuse and showing it for what it is, toxic and easy to fall under its spell for vulnerable people. it’s not an extraordinary show, but it’s not as bad as everyone says it is.
it’s not glorifying it. It’s going more in depth of what takes place and how people embrace their traumas in multiple ways.
@@evalilith6703 I can see that happening and what most people don't like is Tedrill abusing her.
@@michaelacollins1649 Really showing someone get beaten with a hair brush and thanking their abuser?
@@michaelacollins1649It is glorifying it. There are ways to show things and tell a story without being this disgusting. I’m part of the millennial generation though, so what we consider trash is different than today.
the scene where Tedros tries to intimidate the store employee is art, but not in the way Levinson and The Weeknd probably intended 🤣
like between the height difference, the hard ass hairline on the wig, the store employee not being scared at all... too fucking funny
HAHAHAHHA put it in the Louvre 💅🏼
wym i feel like that’s exactly how Levinson and The Weeknd intended it to be 😭
DISGUSTING show and the fact they approved that Epstein comment????! Gross as fu**. Love your review though keep it up thank you for sacrificing your time to tell us about this show and you’re the reason I’ll never give them the satisfaction of watching it
They literally insulted the kids in that island if u think about it.
This episode honestly made me feel no sympathy for Jocelyn at all. Shawty dumb af
I felt sympathy for her at the end of the ep but everything prior to that had me like ??? Girl
@@DavaniGrant when he told her to go get the hairbrush my brain literally imploded. this show is insane it’s kinda hard to even tell what they are going for
I personally believe that when a girl defends or supports the behavior of a trashy dude that she is actually living vicariously through them.
@@thomasfranklin2123trauma porn
@@carrington2949why only vicariously? Maybe they just behave in the same manner.
The interesting thing with nepo babies seems that acting talent seems to transfer pretty well from generation to generation, it's with writing and directing where we get into trouble
i truly believe there is a genetic component to acting
That's because certain talents are inheritable to a degree. Basically, the creative part of your brain is to a certain degree hereditary. I'm an illustration graduate who's studying writing, and my maternal family is filled with artists. Singing, dancing, writing, painting, ceramics, photography, I have family members active in almost every creative field imaginable.
Sam Levinson seems like one of the rare souls who inherited zero talent outside of his visual style.
@@inferiorinferno8859 I think a part of it is that the job of an actor is public-facing - connection may get you through the door, but at the end of the day people are either going to want to watch you or they won't. Whereas with a behind-the-scenes role you can kind of wriggle your way into a position if you have connections and ability to confidently pitch (Max Landis is a good example).
@@_peepee_ I completely agree. I always felt acting school was a waste of time. either you can act, or you can't. simple
@@retro.raider i think you can improve your acting, which is what acting school if for, but yeah i agree with you to an extent. we all start with a base level, like some people are naturals and some arent, but more importantly we all
have a skill ceiling. once you hit your plateau youre probably not going to get that much better no matter how many acting classes you take
i'm really bombastic side eyeing all those people who say that the weeknd didn't plan exactly the show to be this horrendous, twisted male fantasy with little to no plot apart from bad wattpad written sex scenes and unnecessary nudity. how i love people who mass support a celebrity doing questionable things. it's a role, but he co-produced most of it.
^^^
I hate that these horrible representations of kink keep coming out. a very common term used in the bdsm community is SSC (Safe, Sane, and Consensual). engaging in impact play to illicit a vulnerable emotional state so that you can manipulate the person is NOT sane or consensual.
Yeah I read that the bdsm cominuty is tired of abusive men joining with the excuse of being top when in reality they are just toxic assholes who don't understand consent, they think the can BOSS around sub females ... Ewwwww
Only sub on bed, if a loser think i Will do as he said in real life is actually sad, they must be desulional pricks with control fantasy
Deeeeese!
It makes me so mad to know that the show was really good, as good as the dinner scene in this episode at first but after the first director's work was thrown away and Sam and the Weeknd took hold of things, the whole show turned into some weird soft p*rn with a side of "here is something good" every once in a while. It's really sad to watch so many talented people like Lilly and Jenny waist their gifts on this... Anyway, really enjoyed your review of this episode, you somehow made it easie to watch this cringy episode!
Waste, not waist.
in LITERALLY the last episode Jocelyn comes at her crew for “being a bunch of pussies” cause they didn’t stand up against Nikki (who was speaking facts mind you), then she completely disregards that mindset in ep 3 when she lets Tedros bitch everyone around and get away with SLAPPING her employee- like hellooo??? she is such a hypocrite
At this point I just think Abel wanted to get with Lily and decided to be an actor for that
Lilyrose is gay come on find out before you lie
@@Jules-oo4rr u didn't understand my comment?? I said that Abel is the one who would want to be with her. Not the other way. She can be gay or straight I still don't think he would care, he could still find her attractive. So u should read comments better before u reply to others.
The weekend actually prefered Cindy crawford ' s daughter ( kaia gerber , rather than lily rose , that's what hé said
@@Jules-oo4rrLily is not gay. She's dated tons of boys and now a woman. She's bisexual.
If The Weeknd tried to threatened me or seduce me like he does in this I would just laugh in his face and/or gag lmaoo
"are they going to burn the brush?"
🤡🤡🤡
I was so delulu for that
No cause why I thought the same thing lol
It would’ve been a better plot direction if they did! Instead of being so on the nose with him “replacing” her mother, I think it’s more effective and manipulative to burn the brush because it makes him seem like a better guy than he actually is. And it would make WAY more sense for her to thank him afterwards if he burned the brush because she doesn’t see him as a threat to her, rather than what they went with
The Weeknd is sooo cringe in this show lmaoooo I can’t 😂
How did any of these actors not laugh every single second
Well, The Weeknd thought he was doing a great job!!
Worst part is that Lilly is actually not that bad at acting. I think with a lil more experience her acting could really pop off, but I fear after all the backlash from the Idol she might not get any „deeper“ roles.
The weeknd on the other hand… as much as I get that his role was always meant to be weird and uncomfortable, the way he is playing him is giving „are you lost babygirl?“ rather than actual narcissist and manipulator. He is just not doing a good job to make the character actually scare, rather cringe And embarassing…
PSA: The Wknd is not hot
The sales associate scene looks like it was poorly improvised by The Weeknd. Lol
Your reaction is way more entertaining than the show 😂
i know, i just know that the good scenes like the emotional ones were directed by the other director, yeah the female one who got fired bcs of the "female perspective", its so sad we lost a good show to misogeny
I have something to say abt the hairbrush scene at the dinner table…. It’s not good, it’s Tedros telling an abuse victim “but it was good for you” and the question “why didn’t you fight back?” Is just disgusting….
He is a psychopath
The show runners should really listen to the haters
THE MOOD SWITCH AT 7:31 HAD ME HOLLERING
Sis I’m subbing. You’re funny af and I love how you’re open minded but still logical.
"I just don't want him to open his mouth. Is that possible? Can we make that happen?" IM DEAD
Amazing reaction, this was my favorite episode out of the ones that they put out also, you're so funny I love it
😇💕
Yooo that Epstein’s island joke was so foul like who the hell approved that.. tbh I’m grossed out by all the actors who participated in this show at this point
at: 2:34 I JUST CANT TAKE ABEL SERIOUSLY, SORRY😭😭😭😭
"If I catch you lookin' at her again"🤣🤣
This show is more toxic and dangerous for humanity than global warming
*the weekend asking chat gpt to make a show all about s3x violence & celebrities life troubles*
The scene at 2:40 just made me laugh to the point that I could´nt stop. Who told the Weeknd that he can act??
this show could've turned out so well if sam levinson and the weeknd never got their hands on it
I am living for your review. Thank you so much
“Are they gonna burn it?” 😂 ah to be so innocent
Everything about your review is amazing!
I'm glad I came across you're channel this is so good
The line on Epstein I gasped like wtf
Im not a prude and im kinky but this show absolutely disgusts me 🤮🤢 like wtf someone call the police 100 showers wouldn't be enough after watching the show
At least youre funny and not gross 😅 subscribed! ❤
So happy I found you I love everything about your vibe ❤hilarious 😂
First time in your channel and already love you! The Andres work offer was hilarious!
Your expressions got me cackling 😭😂I needed this
"i aint gay" made me laugh
His facial expression was the best acting he did in this whole series.
Tedros: My friend is a gynecologist, but you don't see me stiking my finger in everybody, do you?
We do, Tedros, we do see stiking your finger in more people than we ever needed or wanted.
😭😭😭
i literally felt disgusting when he told her to go get it, i didn’t even watch the rest of the ep ive been hate watching this show but idk if i can finish - great vid btw♥️
I used to think the weeknd was hot but now watching this show I realized he is so creepy and weird looking I’m like traumatized and can never look at him the same 😭😂 he was better off staying mysterious tbh
I actually like this show in a weird wau and i don’t think it’s as bad as people are making it seem. The real question is if the weekend just can’t act or if he’s playing his role too well lol
The Weeknd just can't act. If an "actor" has to release statements to explain what his acting was intended to do, how we were supposed to feel or see their character, etc. then they just didn't do their job well. Actors can communicate effectively just with their eyes, but the Weeknd just can't, there's a reason why you see "Tedros" wearing sunglasses most of the time. I'll not even dive into the monotone voice.
Can’t be a bad actor if you’re not actually ACTiNG. And his voice, being higher and bitchier than LRD’s husky deep smokers voice, just does NOT cut it as the commanding domineering persona for me.
This show had a lot of potential but it got lost 🤷♀️
i loveeeee your reactions!!! ❤
I'm glad YT recommended your channel. Love & Light ❤
Love and light back to you!! 💕
i’m obsessed w u and ur commentary
🥹✨
"I mean...we can do some slapping " omggg😂😂
unrelated but U HAVE SUCH NICE SKIN WTF??? literally glowing
Ahhh thank you 😭
It just seems like this show doesn't know what it wants to be (kinda what you get when you scrap an almost finished show, rewrite it and reshoot it). The writers/director don't seem to have a clear vision of how they want to portray the characters (in one scene the main heroine has a spine and can stand up for herself, in the other she is a complete wimp; and are we supposed to see Tedros as a dangerous strong character, or a comical despicable cult leader, or is it just the weeknd's bad acting?). Lily's character doesn't have any qualities, except for her "mother arch", that can evoke deep sympathy towards her from the viewers. Like why should I care for what is going to happen with this character aka watch the show till the end?
The britney intro😌👌 got me hooked
Wow I can’t believe you made this show more bearable for me. I truly think you’re one of the very few people who’s capable of that
22:14 That's literally what I thought after finishing this episode !!! It reminded me of an Interview where Abel said Lana was one of his only friend in the music industry and that the lyrics of their songs were kind of talking to each other... So I would not even be surprised if the series and especially the characters of Jocelyn and Tedros were actually inspired by Lana songs.
What a way to ruin a good song I saw it as a kink not this gross gaslighting psychological abuse type of ish 🤮
don't forget the "mastermind" of euphoria behind this show😭
He certainly has... a mind
First video of yours that I watch and you are a mood 😂 We had the same reactions
Saw the intro and subscribed immediately
You are the first person who actually has an opinion about this show. Everyone just talks how bad the show is and nothing more than that. Of course it´s weird in certain ways, but has some pontencial.
Yeah that’s true. But unfortunately every time we can clearly see the potential, the show kind of ruins it towards the end.
It had potential before they fired the original female director and hired sam levinson who is known for shitty/creepy writing
@@kylamarie8621 I don’t think that is bad or wrong that The weeknd wants a more “masculine” perspective, after all he wrote the series, and I'm saying that because he said the show had a very feminine perspective and he didn't want that, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that at all.
@@beatrizmonteiro6451 If they are trying to show a story about a female in the music industry being abused and taken advantage if why would they want a more masculine perspective. Please enlighten me as to where the masculine perspective is being shown, in the scene where they beat the girl till she cried with a fucking hairbrush? Or the disgusting Epstein kid joke, or the excessive nudity and sex with zero actual character development or good writing?
@@daisykisses8803 I can’t disagree with you at all…I have mixed feelings about all of this.
Glad I found your channel!
💕
This show makes me so confused. I feel sick at times watching it. Sometimes it’s so beautifully shot and it has very good scenes with Lily and I wonder if it’s worth to keep watching. The hairbrush scene made me physically sick. I also expected him to burn it. Some of the scenes with The Weekend are soo bad it’s laughable. I just want to know what happens and don’t want to watch anymore at the same time.
This new ep was so annoying for me but the 4th ep look like it’s finna give us mercy for that BS and a new song that sounds bomb af😩😩😩
His scene yelling at the dude at valentino had me laughing hard tho cus why was it so forceful 💀💀💀💀💀
No because why did he do all that 😭
And I'm ready to get new bops 💅🏼
@@DavaniGrant that shit had me on the ground it was so aggressive I’m surprised the other act was focused during the scene
OMG I LOVE YOIUR CHANNEL. Subscribed and Stan forever. X
💕
Wait!!! I literally thought he was going to burn the brush too!! I was way to optimistic 😅😅😅😅😅
Rhianna did the picture of fluid on her face for an album cover!
Oh, and thanks for watching this so we don't have to 😂
You're welcome 😂
Just came across your channel.
New subbie here, I love you content
Soooo glad I found this channel 🩵
Regarding episode 3, I couldn’t catch the after “because by saying no, ….”
Please someone teach me.
I’m Gonna Cry 😢😢😢😢
I’m just gonna go ahead I interpret this whole thing as below:
Tedors is supposed to look and be cringe because sometimes when we’re down low we just tend to latch on anything new and can’t see how awful that thing is but people around us can. So we see how cringe he is in reality but it will take her to get over herself in order to get there with us.
And she in my opinion is actually aware of how bad and cringe he is. But she’s just letting it pass and get what she wants out of this; get the album done and have some fun distraction. In fact, I believe she’ll end up being the real mastermind with a twist.
But then again, this is all wishful thinking for the time I wasted on this show….
I need this to be correct 😭
This show had so much potential, if Tedros wasnt a thing. The hairbush scene just disgusted me like wtf? I thought he was about to burn it not create a new trauma
I literally got Lana del Rey vibes from
Jocelyn. In relation to DV/abuse
There’s only a few people in this show that actually care about Jocelyn’s career and mental stability but she turns their help down for a guy that doesn’t even respect her enough to think about her wellbeing.
I think the problem is Abel, I mean he is not capable to play this character.
I cried in last scene with 🪮 of this episode cuz I went traumatized in childhood I don’t refer relive the pain, it’s was hurt me to watch her through that, this scene wasn’t heal for her and we should heal,
the weeknd acts like a tiktok pov
I bursted out laughing bc the lines were so fucking so cringe 😂😭
Jocelyn wanting to get beat i doubt she would want that if she wasn’t controlled and emotionally abused and psychically abused
The brush scene as u describe (I can’t watch the series I don’t got hbo) that’s psychical abuse and then he takes care of her afterwards and makes her feel better after hurting her
That how the real life abusive relationships are like the difference is tendras is a sex cult leader which is worse
can't wait for ur next vid
I SWEAR ON GOD THIS SOUNDS SM LIKE A FAN FICTION😢
I died at the hairbrush scene like WHAT THE FUUUCK
Me too I knew that shit had to hurt I literally screamed
@@makayla7365 yeah and this tedros guy is a fucking maniac like i need him out of that big ass house asap
Damn i wanted to watch this but when you said The Weeknd is hot, i started projectile vomiting
He is hot!!! Outside of this show 😭
@@DavaniGrant I used to think so too. But the show has RUINED him. I also found out he's 5'8 so he wears heels bc he's insecure. I feel like Tedros is just a slightly exaggerated version of himself lol
1:02 SO REAL LMAOOO
in 2:31 bro is trying to do his job and then you get Tedros trying to be intimidating but instead he sounds like a little boy like JEEZ LET THE MAN REST HES TRYING TO DO HIS JOB 😭😭😭😭
What happened to the brush? 😵
i watched the idol yesterday so i could decide for myself how to feel and i kinda like it 💀 i mean it’s definitely not the best thing i’ve ever seen but it’s okay. i definitely get why a lot of aspects of it are disliked and theres a few parts i find cringey/unnecessary like the intimacy coordinator part. but i feel like a lot of the parts that are being hated on are kind of purposeful if that makes sense,, i understand it a bit as someone who has been in a toxic abusive/attachment style “relationship” in the past.
2:32 Tedros who the fuck did you think you were scaring in this scene😂😂
This series made us all collectively hate the weeknd like he destroyed his career with this shit
I was in a narcissistic "relationship" with my doctor, the story was similar, he made a sexual object of me, and after being beated he washed my wounds and treated me like a child... I always thank him for being a "hero" for me and for taking care of me... after 2 years I realized that was never care or love. The doctor was reported for abusing patients, a lot of younger patients
God tests our sanity with these shows
New subscriber here. Funny reactions .Leia is now my favorite character too and Jennie Kim's character (I LOVE BLACKPINK hehe). I seriously hate that Tedros character (He's really BETTER in singing lol) and kinda hate the Jocelyn character too now hehe but I like Lily-Rose Depp
Her dad watching this .. aren’t you proud dad
