I think Nate freaking out from his dad pinning him down was part projecting from the nightmare he had, and just anger at losing control over his autonomy as control is something he treasures the most
That's what I was thinking... The violence Cal was acting looked almost sexual which would be terrifying to someone with nightmares like that. Nate finding the porn of his dad was in itself abuse. Abuse on top of abuse. Doesn't excuse Nate's behavior but I have empathy for him here.
It’s also why the scene panned away to the drawer.
@@FindingHisLight yess
Definitely
to be fair when i saw that for the first time that was the first thing that came to mind. the dad was a f**king idiot for grabbing him like that and pinning him down.
Fun fact: the actor who plays Nate, Jacob Elordi, actually suffered a concussion when repeatedly banging his head during his meltdown scene. Talk about dedication to the craft
i was about to ask if he got hurt doing that lol bc it looked real
Fuck that is real dedication 😳
shittt, he was banging his head hard as hell
that's actually really irresponsible, they could've easily done it in a way that does not involve a brain injury
@@edithputhy4948 exactly...that's not dedication, that the safety department/stunt department that failed at their job to put a fake foam board there and then have the camera angel in such a way it seems like he's hitting his head then ad the sound in post production.
The direct failed him, the safety department failed him, the producers failed him. I wonder what teh insurance company and production accounting think of this situation.
It was very unsettling and what the fudge was the older actor playing the dad doing? he was closest, didn't he see, did he think he was wearing a padded wig and fake floor??
"Bottomless pit of a therapy material" sounds perfect to describe Nate
*All the characters on the show
@@samf.s8786 nah some are kinda ok like Elliott or Kat, the most sane character to me is Ethan
sounds perfect for the entire show
sounds perfect to describe me lol
Honestly you should just watch the entire show and do a deep dive on every character
I'd love to hear your takes
yes!
I think Maddie is way more nuanced than the Spicy Latina trope. The pressure to thrive against white beauty standards, the vulnerability that Lexi overheard, her desperation for a female role model and her dynamic with Samantha.
Yesss
Yes!
Fully agree because the insight is great just wish it was in full depth
"Get the exorcist holy crap!"
"The power of christ compels you, nate!"
that sent me flying 💀
I was laughing so hard at it😂😂😂
IKRRRR!!!! LIKEEE😭😭😭
I think his son's homophobia is understandable considering how badly he treated their mom. Cheating is not okay just because someone's actually gay. Who expects their children to go "omg slay congrats on your coming out" when he cheated, broke their mom's heart and destroyed the whole family?
Well said. Father and son are both so toxic!
exactly what i was thinking
he doesn’t respect his mother & he cheats on his girlfriend. He clearly does not care
he is homophobic because he is gay himself, he is grappling with his sexuality himself. Nate doesn’t give a shit about infidelity obviously given how he treats his relationships
@@NithinJune sure but there is a root cause of why he hates it so much and that's his dad
my heart broke for nate when cal told him he was his biggest regret. obviously that could never justify what he’s done but it still hurt to watch
Ngl the last episode made me feel really bad for Nate you could see the hurt in his eyes Jacob portrayed that really well
Honestly, Nate is horrible yes, but the fact that he is the way he is because of the horrible childhood he's had hurts. And it angered me that his dad almost put that all on him. I feel so much pain for Nate but as well as hatred. You kinda hate feeling bad for him but he's not mentally okay at all and you can tell there is a reason why he is how he is and he even hates how he is. He's horrible, but for some reason I'm able to give sympathy to him
The mom is just as bad because she's codependent. There's no way she didn't see his character before this! Quiet abuse is still abuse, neglect and abandonment is abuse.
Besides she enables the abuse. And she's a rottenly active misogynist. Edited to add: and a hypocrite because she was a very sexual, self-confident and assertive young person and she looks down on girls and young women for being the same way.
well Nate’s mother got pregnant because she knew Cal was in love with his best friend and would easily leave her for him. She fully trapped him with a baby so they would be together forever. She thought that doing so would “fix” him, but as we can see, it only spread the disease of unresolved mental health issues throughout his family through secrecy and abuse.
In the episode after this one she told Nate she did know about Cal's double life
Codependency isn’t “just as bad” as abuse.
Shes bad but shes not just as bad
I would advise you to watch a piece from season 2, where Cal is young, as well as how he goes to the bar as an adult. And also Nate as a child where he finds Cal's records (season 1). The story of young Cal explains a lot in his adult behavior. And it is to young Cal that I sympathize that his story has turned out this way.
And I also wanted to say that Nate's mom is far from ideal, to put it mildly (in the second season she had a dialogue with Nate, where she literally approved of his behavior towards women and Maddie).
IKR, I did not think that season 2 would have an episode that would make Cal look considerably less horrible.
YESS
Cal’s backstory doesn’t excuse his actions as an adult, which is exactly what Jonathon was saying. It doesn’t matter what he went through as a child, bc as an ADULT he’s a predatory, domineering, and overall despicable man.
ehh sympathy can only go so far at the end of the day he made his choices in life
Yeah, Nate's mom is far from being "okay". She is a parent too. It's half her fault Nate is the way that he is
I don’t think you’ve seen the scene yet but there’s a huge reason that Nate resents his and his Dad’s sexuality. Cal (the dad) mentioned his double life where he sleeps with men, he also has a habit of filming these encounters, and a young Nate discovered these videos
He watched that in this video
@@spacebar9733 my bad I didn’t realize
@@KittyPieVibes no i know, i was just telling you in case you wanted to see that part
He knows about the videos yes, but it's irritating that he hasn't seen the real big deal, the fact that some of those videos contain minors
I think nate freaked out so much because he had discovered his dad's collection of videos where his dad was brutally forcing himself onto people, including minors; and I think that his dad pinning him down like that made him feel like it was going to happen to him OR maybe it DID happen and we just haven't seen it yet....
Maybe with the latter situation, that’d explain why Nate is such a super straight. Because the first interaction he had with the same sex was rape AND his dad being the rapist. That’s why whenever someone brings him and homosexuality into the same sentence, he gets super triggered.
I started in therapy when my daughter was a year old and I lost control and started screaming at her for crying when I couldn't figure out why. She shut down emotionally for a while and it scared the hell out of me, and I couldn't believe what I'd done anyhow. I went to therapy to figure out how to control my anger and found out I needed antidepressants. Been on those two and a half years and it's the best thing that ever happened to me, and my family. I also continued in therapy to figure out where the anger was coming from and deal with that set of core issues. Spoiler: it was basically shame based, which was based in the mental and emotional abuse I'd experienced for 20 years growing up before I finally got out and married a great person who helped and loved me through everything that followed. I could pretty confidently call us a happy family now. I still have bad days but they are farther between and I've handled my son, who's now six months old, much better than I did my daughter. When I feel myself starting to lose control I've gotten a lot better at asking for help so I can have the time and space I need to get it back. I'm so incredibly glad to be breaking the cycle of generational trauma--because my abuser also had an abusive parent, who also had an abusive parent... We don't know how far back it goes. But it stops here.
Well that‘s a thing you can be really proud of-I wish you and your family all the best!
Thank you.
I am a young woman whose father didn't have the mental capacity, resources, or will to do the work you've done. I barely speak to him anymore. Thank you for doing the work.
Thank God for your strong will. The graph may dip and fall, but it's a steady upward climb. Your daughter will appreciate it and flourish because of it. God bless you.
“I love this show it helps me de-stress”
The show:
it’s so deep how nate didn’t actually needed to be sexually abused to feel abused that way and when his dad physically fought with him he just went CRAZY! the anger response it’s a representation of how hurt he was from all these traumas, he knew how sh*tty his dad was with all those records, he knew his father was cheating and lying and yet he always tried to be protect him, keep the lie, he tried to make his dad proud, be the man but at the same time he was terrified of him and didn’t wanted to be like him, that’s why he held on so tightly to toxic masculinity! and yet his dad tells him he’s a disappointment and is always criticizing him, i just think like nate was a little boy scared and trying too hard inside of this super strong man body with toxic behavior, i just pity him a lot and feel extremely bad for him please give this guy therapy!
An interesting React would be "Say yes to the dress", I mean, we see controlling mothers/in-laws, insecure brides, and super demanding brides. Could come up with great advice from there.
yesssssss
And unsupportive friends.
I’d would’ve loved if you did a reaction on Cassie and where you’d finally get an understanding on her characteristics from her daddy issues to her falling for wrong men recklessly
YES
13:30 thank you for saying this. I hate when adults don't take matters into their own hands when they've had so much time to work on themselves and end up doing damage to their younger family bc they won't let go of pride. Thought I was the only one who felt this way. Thank you Jonathan
Yeah I feel the same way
what you said about Nate's negative qualities being of Cal's own making- i think thats what Cal meant when he said Nate's his biggest regret. As in he has realised that by trying to make Nate better than himself (in a weird way using shame and internalised homophobia) he has actually created a monster. He regrets not raising him better i think.
I love Jacob Elordi's acting. He portrayed the character really good and made us all fear Nate. I love euphoria my fav characters are Rue and Cassie🧡💙💜
I hate Nate SO MUCH but Jacob Elordi is SO GOOD 🤣
@@Willowwithawplease trueeee, he's soo good in making nate hated, but still understandably broken. you hate him, but at some times can't help, but feel bad. I'm really interested in his storyline, in his sexuality realization, because he's a bad guy, but he still a kid who wasn't loved enough(or loved at all).
And too think Euphoria was his first role ever! Also I love him too 💓
@@Britney_Ramirez21 lol what? He was in Kissing Booth before this. Pretty sure there's more in that list too. Euphoria was def not his first role.
@@damunaik4 that’s what he said in his interview
"The Power Of Christ Compels You, Nate" 😂😂
He is gonna come out green with purple pants on😂
I thought that was hilarious 😂
deadass was on the verge of tears until he said that and I fucking died 💀
That’s to funny
I definitely feel that scene of nates rage on the floor had to do with Nate's battle to feel control and yet again losing to his dad. He's known his dad is the worst person in the world since he was a kid, and nate wants to be the best and toxic and manipulative not inherently cause his dad keeps demanding that of him, but so one day he can beat that. And In this portion of the show it's after we saw the worst in Nate and how much he controls people. So Nate tries to stand up for himself. He feels like he's on a roll. He feels confident he is the bigger piece of shit. Anddddd he gets his ass taken down to the floor in seconds. Which breaks him, physically, mentally. He cannot cope with the intense emotional feeling that impossible task has, so he channels it physically. That's my theory from one kid with a piece of shit dad to the character
Yeah I definitely sympathy with Nate because it's pretty similar to me. Dad gave me a phone he forgot to clear at like 9 or 10 which was full of his explicit videos and photos (after finding his tape at 6yrs old). Run of the mill half dead beat. Got into a fight with him and lost, have been working out daily ever since. The need to prove you are the better man is definitely there. Even if it causes you to become a more toxic, manipulative piece of shit. I would know firsthand sadly
The scene where his dad tries to subdue him and he bangs his head on the floor was one of the most relatable scenes in Euphoria to me. And I've been physically abusive to my parents as well. But the feeling of helplessness resulting in self harm like that and it scaring the parent away more than any abuse to them? Hits home
Well there's an important element to be had there that the way Cal is positioned when he restrains nate is eerily mimicking sexual violence, which is reinforcing the trauma nate got from viewing his dad's videos and having nightmares of it happening to him. Hence why the camera pans to the desk drawer of said content
I'd really love a full Cassie and/or Maddy analysis. There's so much possible content here, from their upbringing to Cassie's obsession with winning Nate over.
While Cal is far from the best dad, openly prefers Nate to Aaron, despite saying that Nate is his greatest disappointment, and moulded Nate into his toxic image. But even he can see just how unhealthy Nate and Maddy's romance is.
Cal reminds me a lot of my dad. The difference between me and Nate is that I love my mom and my mom turned me away from becoming like him. Seeing Nate I see a mirror to another dimension, where I could've ended up like him. I was very close to that and thats terrifying.
Honestly, you should just react to the entirety of Euphoria. It's so good and there's so much material to go through. I'd really like to hear your take on the show.
"When things are at a breaking point and he's got some sort of head wound" made me laugh more than it should.
So so so much missing context, second scene only happens because he knows a tape got out that exposes him sleeping with a minor and filming it, which is why his head is bandaged as he just got back from a drug dealer whom his son told him had the tape and they nearly broke his skull in while he confessed because he thought they had seen the tape and he wanted it back. The first clip also ends with a shot of the drawer in the desk, that’s the drawer he kept the tapes in.
Yeah, there is missing context, but he doesn't really need it. He's spilling truth nonetheless.
@@xkathygee but without context he could be misreading a lot of characters. So it's still important.
@@user-kt3qm8jy8y not really, one’s motivations don’t excuse one’s actions. Cal is responsible for his actions as a grown man.
@@squeezie_b8895 Even then, there’s a reason mental health professionals need context. Though u can make a general statement that’s a fact such as “Cal is a bad man who likely had stuff done to him to make him this way”, it doesn’t get into the nitty gritty. Detail detail details are what’s gonna give you the clear cut answer and the ability to do a full analysis. Knowing backstory doesn’t mean you excuse their actions, you just understand them more
@@user-kt3qm8jy8y he’s not tho
It would be so cool if you did a video on The Gallaghers . (From the show Shameless ) there’s really so much potential therapy/content in that show. Specifically Ian, Fiona and Lip. Or the kids relationship with Frank.
I had to stop watching that show. It bothered me too much. Euphoria is troubling, too, but there seems to be a redemptive streak in each character. I didn’t often feel that with Shameless. Maybe I needed to keep watching.
@@toritori5835 tbh for me I couldn’t stop watching the toxicness is what I’m used to and it sort of felt like..home?
I agree. Lip is my FAV to analyze. I’d like to think he has BPD.
"The power of Christ compels you Nate" I'm dead lol😂
An important scene I keep thinking about that was missed was when Cal confronts Nate and Nate just casually says, “you know that classmate of mine that you f*cked, Jules?”
Yessss I'm so irritated that he keeps missing the worst part of Cal's dirty little secret, DUDE SCREWS MINORS!😤😤
@@artisticbeautybyhanako6801 jules lied about her age? I don5 like him either but the way y’all twist things ain’t it
@@sina7256i agree. he didn’t know, and when he did know he apologized to Jules, but it made sense that he wanted to keep his reputation & asked Jules to keep it a secret.
@@sina7256you’re a freak lol
I have a friend from high school who is a couple of years younger than me. His father was married to this woman, and when he divorced her he left his two children with her, I guess he thought they would be better off with a mother, my friend had not idea were his father was, and had been looking for him so he could go live with him. After his father left, he said his stepmother just completely changed. He and his your sister were physically and mentally abused for years by her she even medicated him and his sister for mental illnesses he didn't have, while her own children were treated like little royalty. He is now in his mid-30s, he's a firefighter, and he is a wonderful father and husband. He's like the nicest guy in the world; mild-mannered, respectful, and loyal. He treats everyone with respect and kindness. He calls me about once every year or so and we speak for like an hour or more to catch up on our lives. So yeah, sometimes life gives you a raw deal, but once you grow up, hell, even before that, is up to you what kind of person you become. My friend never once let his abusive childhood turn him into a nasty person.
Please by this point just watch the whole show for our sake 😅
I would DIE if he reacted to Cal's backstory!!! It's so heartbreaking to watch
If anyones a victim of any kind of abuse….. always know that it’s not your fault. It’s never your fault and it was never your fault to begin with….. no matter how many times you’ve been Gaslite or deflected by your family or by bullies at school or even your community.
It’s not my fault. My mother my step dad my dad my brother, they’re all revolting. I’m over it. I’ll sell their souls.
Cal has a very toxic idea of what masculinity is and therefore taught Nate the same way. In their eyes, their homosexual desires clash with their need to feel like a man. Cal is bitter from having to hide it for years and internalized this homophobia against his own self, and Nate is now going down the same path, angry at Cal and the world that he’s not able to express his desires without his manhood being questioned. Nate is actually in love with Jules, but has not allowed himself to admit it or act on it in a healthy way. He loved Maddy because he felt like he was protecting someone, he loved Cassie because she was who he thought was supposed to be his idea of the perfect woman, but he really actually loves Jules.
i wish you would see the entire show, maybe it’d draw you to diferent conclusions about Cal and Nate, who are by far the most twisted and difficult to comprehend (both in who they are and their intentions). i feel like watching the whole thing would give you more context as to the extends of their trauma and abuse, their victim and abusive-selves.
YES he needs to see cal’s backstory
That's true but watching this show is enough to mess some people up. I watched a few clips and it literally made me want to throw up.
@@justanothermortal1373 very true, this show is for a mature audience and definitely should be avoided by people who might get triggered by the things it shows. it definitely isn’t for everyone, but i think he would probably be ok w it.
I’ve never watched Euphoria, but reading up on Nate and watching these clips of him and his dad, I’ve gotta say Cal is a piece of work indeed.
I would love for you to do a video on the series Arcane which is on Netflix. Jinx is one central character who has suffered from untreated anxiety and trauma. When she’s older she has so much unresolved issues that change her completely. Jinx, Vi, Silco , Kaitlyn, etc.
Ohhh! Yeah! I would love to see that! React on jinx!
Yes!!
Saw like only the first 2-3 episodes of season one and I never noticed the camera panning to the drawer in Cal’s office that has his…”special” tapes with other men…that nate found when he was younger….
Ughh you should totally watch the episode when nate finds his dads tapes also cals backstory it would give you so much contextttt
I inherited my fair share of toxicity from immature parents who didn't really know how to love. I had to decide that it ends with me and accept the hard work involved in keeping my commitment. I was only able to do this after receiving love for the first time.
Same
You don’t think the mom is bad. You just wait. Lol.
Also. There’s a full Cal backstory in the show you should watch.
I loved Nate’s dad speech. He’s so toxic but we understood him better season 2 and I honestly felt for him
Jon you gotta watch the whole thing with Alan, the psychology of the character (All of whom are not great) is the main hook to this show.
And it's not for kids because people have to think about it when watching, and I don't think an average kid would be able to peel off all the layers.
Its also not for kids because it has nudity, alcohol, guns, violence, and abuse lol
I really appreciate this video. Beyond that, I admire the actor, who plays Cal, he did a great job in this episode, it was very realistic and precise, dramatic, like a real Shakespeare actor. I was stunned.
I think Eric Dane is actually pretty underrated. He did The Last Ship after finishing Grey's and even though the show is meh, he really shines. On top of that, he was dealing with pretty bad depression during filming (The Last Ship). to the point that they actually took a hiatus so he could get treatment. I can't imagine how much the character of Cal must have pushed his buttons.
I didn't like him in Grey's Anatomy but in Euphoria he is incredible
For you to get the most out of the show you need to watch the whole thing, it'll drain the life out of you but it will give you very important context!!!!
My dad never abused me. But he never showed me love either. I thought he hated me. I’m still not sure. I turned all my anger onto myself and blamed me and wound up with severe OCD, body dysmorphia = life-threatening eating disorder. I have severe PTSD from my time in hospitals and the psych ward where ironically my dad started to get the help he needed from the paediatric team who were meant to save me. And I have major depressive disorder because of the mess that my life has turned into- disability, doctors, therapists, medications,and the knowledge I don’t have much time left on this earth. Please parents you gotta show your kids love. Nate’s dad didn’t and look at how fucked up Nate is- turning his anger into abuse in intimate relationships and an inability to fully deal with his own sexuality. Love your kids and make them know it is UNCONDITIONAL. Before it’s too late to fix it all.
Watching Jonathan’s face screw up in anger as Cal started beating Nate was terrifying and fascinating at the same time.
Nate honestly feels like the only well written character in the show. Everyone's characteristics feel bland and slapped on to fit the theme of that episode - Nate feels to be the only character who stays consistent and complex.
I wish you had watched more clips that showed the context of their relationship (Nate finding the tapes as a kid, Cal’s backstory)
Euphoria is definitely a hard show to watch mentally but I also believe everyone over the age of at least 17 because it's such an eye open for a lot of tough topics like drug abuse or physical abuse for example.
I turned my life around, and it did heavily involve going no contact with my entire family, because being the Identified Patient meant no matter what, I wasn't allowed to improve or ever be a good person. HOWEVER, I'd been away from them a couple months when it finally hit me how awful I'd been to my youngest brother. For a while I said, "I won't invade his life, but he ever wants it, an apology is always waiting for him." Buuuut.... it never sat right with me how I was saying it, but he didn't know it.
So I sent one email. One email, where I let him know he was due quite a hefty apology from me if he wanted it; and I also swore not to contact him further, unless he expressly states that he would want that contact. I have not received any reply, and I have no intention of breaking my word.
I messed up. I was awful to him. I have to accept that his life very well may be better without me in it.
Wow... I felt this deeply. I hope your email will either give him some closure or open up a new relationship.
People misinterpret the point of Euphoria and these videos are great for people to understand what’s healthy. Please keep doing them
I would LOVE to see analysis between Nate and Jules! I’m sure a lot of people do as well
You should definitely watch euphoria, you did such amazing breakdowns of the characters, and in the show there are more characters and more information that I can imagine you’d have some interesting input to. Like cals youth and backstory, rue, fez and ash, Ethan and kat etc
You should take a look at Rues breakdown at the end of season two when she fights with Jules and her mom about using drugs again
as much as I dislike Nate its insane to think about your parent saying you're their biggest disappointment
Did he just hulked out
A little back story (I’m halfway through your vid so maybe it will be revealed):
Cal realized he was bi-sexual at the very least (he’s pansexual, I think) with a preference for men after falling for his best friend from childhood. But he didn’t think his friend felt the same so by Senior year in HS he’s dating and sleeping with Portia. He was scared to be real with his best buddy but once he finally was, his friend reciprocated and they decided they’d go away (I think to the same university) and live life together. He was just putting plans into place when Portia told him she was pregnant. So he didn’t go to university and he did not get to be with the one he viewed as the love of his life. He stayed and married her and they had the older son - followed by Nate a few years later. And he grew so bitter and resentful.
He poured all his sadness and resentment into one night hook ups, meeting men and transsexual women online. As they say, you’re only as sick as your secrets. In one of the first episodes before school begins and Jules has just moved newly to town, she meets him online and they hook up. If you didn’t realize it, Jules is trans.
She is shocked to later learn that Cal is Nate’s dad. What she doesn’t know is that Cal recorded their encounter (and all his encounters before and after that) and Nate watches these recordings, unbeknownst to his dad. He has since he was young and they have enraged and traumatized him. At this point, though, he takes his rage out on Jules by catfishing her online as Tyler. When he meets her, he tells her about the video and she obviously is shattered.
Though Nate does this to be hateful, he also begins having these split second moments where he thinks of Jules romantically/sexually - just flashes really. But something inside him softens.
After Cal has that horrible exchange with his family, he moves to his shop and just parties day and night with random people who he hooks up with - some that are obviously underage. And it is at this time that Nate has a bit of a reckoning, at least with regards to his father. But he does it seeking revenge from his dad.
In an odd turn of events, Nate gives Jules the recording his dad took and turns all the other videos into the police who then go on to arrest his dad on multiple counts of sex with a minor (and other charges, I’m sure).
It’s a pretty messed up show, for sure. But Zendaya gives Rue such humanity and there are characters you really do root for and wish the best for. I really like Cassie’s sister, Lexi. How she maintains her sanity in that pit of hell and drama she lives in is beyond me. She is the nerdy theater kid/artist who puts all her pain into her art.
Anyhow, despite all the dysfunction, one wishes for happy endings - endings that I doubt will come.
Rue’s last line in the last episode is that she stayed sober all the way through summer. This tells us that the show will probably time jump, though we don’t know where to in the future. If it time jumps way after summer, it tells us that fall is where she again lost her sobriety. However, maybe it will time jump to the very start of the next school year so Rue can’t say about the future.
I personally think Rue is narrating after she died from an overdose. I think she’s telling the story of everyone from that all knowing point of view because she’s dead and now she can see everything; every motive and backstory. But, that’s just me.
as someone who hasn’t watched this show and probably won’t, this is a beautifully and lovely put together synopsis. the detailed and thought into this really makes me want to just sit and binge watch, i hope all of your productions for s3 turn out to be correct!
I turned my life around after having a spiritual awakening at age 17. In fact Im 31 now and my mom and I are happier and more healed than ever!
I highly recommend watching the friendship story between Cassie and Maddy. It is really interesting to see how their pasts have affected their personalities and relationships (specifically Cassie’s backstory) and how that led to the love triangle between Nate and the two of them. They start off season 1 as extremely close best friends, and by the end of season 2 are almost enemies due to the way they view relationships and loyalty, it is VERY interesting
I want him to react to Juls and Nate’s “relationship” and see what he as to say about that
2:24 The only appropriate reaction to this show😆
i couldnt be happier thx for posting this
You have to watch cals backstory and more of nate's sexuality crisis. Would love to hear about both of these
Your reaction was like my reaction when I first saw that scene. IT WAS TOO REAL.
OMG PLEASE WATCH THE REST OF THIS SERIES
Can you look back at Nates main trauma which is when he found his father's secret when he was younger? I'm curious your take on how that would/could realistically affect someone at that age.
Please do more of these, this is so fun to watch :)
I’m so happy I found your videos on this show, I love the show and also love the commentary that is serious but light hearted sometimes. Thank you!!!
Another great video😭 thank you so much! Future psychologist and you have helped so much in awareness please do more!!
I was WAITING for this video!! Yesss the relationship between Nate & Cal is absolutely bonkers
Watching the scene with Nate and Cal's fight was defintely one of the hardest parts of the show to watch
Thank you for making this video!!!! i literally requested this in your past video and it makes me reall happy to see it be made and analyze. I also reall appreciate that you added the clip i wanted you to look at ! :) LOVE THIS PAAGE
I learned a lot from you through this video, Jono! Loved when you explained the difference between a leader and dictator. Would love if you expanded on this a bit more! Thank you!
“The power of Christ compels you!!” LMAOO
Thank you for saying that some people can not love themselves but still love others. I have had a heck of a time loving myself and it would absolutely kill me when people would throw that line around casually because being able to love others - like my family and friends - was what really made me feel like I was worth something. It would have been great to hear this validation in the past when I was struggling.
I clicked on this without any context either... and I got to 2 minutes in and I am speechless.... I knew this show touched on real life topics but gosh I was not expecting that...
Euphoria is a crazy show. If you ever decide to do another episode of euphoria. I would recommend doing Cassie, because in season two her and Nate’s, as well as Mandy’s relationship throughout it is crazy
2:05 PLS I WAS WATCHING THIS IN CLASS AND THAT WHOLE MOMENT W THE "the power of christ compels you" PART HAD ME WHEEZING
I would love to see an episode by episode reaction to Euphoria. Thanks for doing these videos, they're so interesting!
Sometimes when you want love from a parent you’d rather hurt yourself than hurt them when they fail you again. A child can feel guilt for not fixing the parental relationship. That would explain why Nate gave up and started slamming his head into the ground instead of fighting back.
I would love to see you react to the whole show and analyze all the of the characters and storylines. Honestly, you get it very spot on, but the full story helps a lot with seeing where all of Cal's issues come from.
I'd love a full show react it really dives into how every character was formed since childhood
OMG YES I was waiting for it sm
“Get the exorcist!” I went right to the comments 😂
I can't believe in stumbled upon your channel today, I am so glad to have your insight on these characters cause to some degree some people love the show because of how relatable the characters are. In hindsight this show is so unrealistic cause of the high school scene but the characters are so deep in their own way.
"Okay, the video is almost done, now we just need a thumbnail. Jonathan, can you look shocked, please?"
Jonathan: *gives it his all*
i love your reaction videos!!!! 😄
I usually don't comment on these videos, but I have a couple things to say about the scene where Nate's dad gets physical with him. 1. I think Nate's freak out shows some of the best acting I've ever seen. 2. The fact that he starts practically crying really makes me sad, because I feel like it's his inner child coming out. 3. The scene also gives me a bit of anxiety because it's actual abuse I've witnessed happen to my cousin. But I must say, that is one of my favorite scenes in the show in a strange way that I can't understand.
neeeeed more of euphoria from you man!!! i personally relate a lot to (as an adult/teen) rue and (as a child) cassie and would love to be therapized thru u therapizing them!!
I love these videos and I’m learning a lot! Would love to hear your comments about Nate‘s conversation with his mother after his dad moves out.
I think it'd be interesting to see you watch the show as a whole! The (main) characters have so much depth that I don't think clips from different episodes/out of context will do your interpretation of the show justice. Euphoria is truly an incredible show!
You really need to do a whole series to this show.
WE NEED MOREEEE
I can relate to the having so much rage you want to hurt yourself or thrash yourself. My dad literally said point blank our family is a dictatorship. Glad I got out of there but now I'm alone and feel like most women can't relate to me cause none of them were treated this harshly by their dads
I would love to seee your reaction to the whole show. There are so complex aspects of the show.
“Nathaniel. Your whole fucking life is a secret. A mystery. Who knows about you?”
Wow… that sentence really touched me 💔
''the power of christ compels you nate'' hahahaha I cried at this part
I would love to see you react to the whole series 😅
‘Thanks for being proud of me dad’ I felt that shit… I tried to make my dad proud for 10 years. After 10 years I was like: he’s never ganna be proud of me. I’ve been doing my own shit for 5 years now, he’s proud… like wtf
