    I'm 22 years old. If I'm being 100% honest, I discovered and fell in love with Bo's work when I was 13, in Eighth Grade.
    It's been really cool growing up, and seeing his work progress. Inspired.

      I wished Bo had been around when I was 13, so I could have looked up to a guy that is funny, charming, sweet, respects women, respects people in general wherever they come from and just overall isn't an arrogant prick. Sadly, I was stuck with the Backstreet Boys -.-

      Fran McAllister seeing him looking like an adult made me feel really old. When I originally started watching his videos, I was maybe 3 years younger than him. Today I’m an adult but I feel very much like a pretend adult. Seeing him being so serious makes me realize how much I’ve grown up, I guess? It’s odd.

He thought that he was becoming a hypocrite by having performing taking over his girlfriend and life. If you watch the last 10 minutes of the special he gets down to earth with the audience. Definitely worth a watch!

    I must say, that despite the irony of Bo' s presence on a talk show, it is in my opinion not a "hypocrite act", as I have seen writen here. It is a movie promotion before anythinh and it doesn't involve him only, but young actors whom career might be changed for the better if the film does well. Furthermore, I think the mindset of 25 yo guy trying to deal with fame is not the mindset of a 27 or 28 yo writer/movie producer.
    I completely understand his choice and am really happy to see him doing so well.

    Saw this yesterday. Bo Burnham did a spectacular job representing introverts who are desperate to fit in, be more confident, and less terrified of talking to people. I loved at the ending when she told her future self that she couldn't wait to be her. Her transformation from the beginning was subtle but realistic and still inspiring.

    Love love love Bo Burnham, and I saw eighth grade this week. truly fantastic. this interview, on the other hand, was such a disappointment, but that's because of Kimmel. Obviously he's old-school hollywood, and they look down upon youtube content creators. And I kind of understand, it's still a fairly new platform, it does have yet to prove its content as long-lasting entertainment (it's profitable, surely, but it hasn't been around enough to see long-term results). But what Kimmel seems to fail to realize (as evidenced by his comment about not wanting to watch a youtube video his own child recommended) is that this is where he himself is thriving. Cable is dying, it's been dying for years. Your views, your money, your continued success isn't because people are watching you on TV at night. It's because of these youtube clips. Also I just don't think Kimmel listens, he just is thinking of what to say next, and as a result, he struggles to come up with something to say in the event that the conversation has not followed the bullet points laid out on the teleprompter. Like, this is your job bro. To have a quality conversation, which you get paid HANDSOMELY for. Haven't you done this for YEARS? I think we need some young blood in this TV host game. Except you, Stephen Colbert. You can stay as long as you'd like.

      Bo knew how to work with TH-cam back when it was a genuine creator platform. He found who he needed to promote his music and comedy through it and ultimately have his professionally produced and sold. Bo then realized how TH-cam was straying away from being that form of a platform and focused on other forms of promotion including tour, producing more albums and small acting roles. His channel still exists with his original music and for him to post the occasional new song or a filmed performance but he knows that TH-cam can no longer be used as an independent creator's promotion tool that it once was.

Regardless of the modern tech and TH-cam perspective. Almost every scene was relatable experience to invoke an almost PTSD moment to a former memory of my own middle school experience. And my mother expressed likewise.
