This is such a great first episode of a series. It introduces all the characters, the themes, and the drama, and ends with a solid cliffhanger. So good. The acting in this show is top tier, and the character development is is great as well. Easily one of my favorite shows.
Thanks Nalia! So glad to hear it. Some shows can be rocky in the first episode as they establish the scene, characters, story. But to your point, this one did it so effortlessly, I immediately liked it. :)
„The douche in the turtleneck“ 😂 Love that! Young Royals is hands down one of the best shows that Netflix has to offer! So great that you give it a try. You won’t regret it, trust me 😉
Thank you, Frances! Yeah, I'm going to feel really bad now if August and Felice in particular end up being nice characters later working soup kitchens lol
Good commentary! And fun facts and trivia for the show? Well, Simon's actor Omar Rudberg used to be in a popular Swedish boyband, now he's a solo artist. This show is his first time ever acting, which one couldn't even tell, he is so talented and amazing for the role! And Wilhelm's actor, Edvin Ryding, has been acting since he was about five years old, so as one would expect, he is just phenomenal. Can't wait for you to see the rest!
Thank you, Senja!! Yeah, I'm really excited to see more. I TOTALLY would have thought it would be the other way around with Omar- he is a great actor imo, so I would have thought actor first. Like I said in the final thoughts, I really was impressed with everyone actually. As actors, they all did very well. I already don't like August, which tells me that actor is going a great job because he's probably very nice in real life. lol
Fun Facts: Simon (Omar Rudberg)- He is a singer and this was his first acting gig. Wilhem/Wille (Edvin Ryding)- was 17 when young royals started filming and has been acting since 5 years old. Sara( Frida Argento)- Has ADHD in real life. August (Malte Gardinger)- auditioned for the role of Simon originally. Brilliant show with excellent acting!
I totally agree!! They've ALL done SO well in just this first episode! Which, let's face it, isn't always the best in series that go on to become beloved later. Re: Simon, I will only say that I am very glad it went to Omar. Not that I would EVER pick favorites, you understand, but damn.. lol
@@DavidvsFilm I get you 100% lol. Simon is my favourite character and I believe that Omar is doing him justice. I also absolutely LOVE Malte's acting so I'm happy they casted him as August. When you've watched the rest, I will say more about August.
A note about the school. School is technically free in Sweden. Boarding and extra activities are not. So town kids can go as day students. Much the way scholarship kids can go to elite schools in the US but don't really participate in all the school life at the same level. That's how it was explained to me.
Ahhhh, thank you!! So that's why Simon keeps saying he's "non-res" then.. I assume they still have to pass some test to get into the school, but it's free to attend once they do. And then if they want to live-in, participate, etc., that's extra. Gotcha :)
Yayyy!!!! I'm so excited to finally see your reactions to this show. I love how right away your instincts were right on about August being an absolute jacka**. The actor who plays him does a great job of making you absolutely hate him. To be honest, I kinda stumbled onto this show by accident, had no idea what it was. But dang, by the end of the 1st episode, I was completely hooked. The tension and chemistry between wilhem and Simon and the actors who play them had me so invested. Also fun fact don't know if you know that since all the main actors speak English as well they did the English dub version so it's a lot better than most English dubbed shows.
Thanks Melissa! I did NOT know that about the actors doing the English dubbing!!! Hmmm. Yeah still I’ll probably watch in the native Swedish though. I remember trying to watch Dark in the English dub, and a lot of the emotion got lost. They all got me hooked with their performances. And the episode went by fast! I may put 2 episodes in one reaction going forward, haven’t decided yet ;)
@DavidvsFilm ya I still watched it in the Swedish version too. Everyone's acting was so good. They did such a good jobs. I just find it fun to share the thing about the English dub cause last Dec edvin and omar were on the Jimmy Fallon show and he (jimmy) made a comment on how surprisingly good the English dub was and they were all "um you know that's us right" he had no idea
@@DavidvsFilm as someone who speaks English and Swedish much of the emotion and tension gets lost in the English version I have to say. That isn’t to say it doesn’t add a certain something and They definitely did a great job but I’d say go for Swedish :) voice acting can be complicated when you have to express everything with just your voice (coming from someone who has done acting) their performances in this show are really stellar and I think you should see it at the peak at least for the first time :)
Great reaction David ! For me YR was more a wildfire than a slow burn, was gripped immediately by the characters. The class clashes are a major part of the show’s angst component. Many other shows/movies are set in a homogeneous social milieu (Heartstopper, Love, Victor, Sex Education). This one plays on these frictions and Wilhelm’s uneasy reaction to them. Throughout he tries to have it both ways, sits on the fence, cater to his family’s position etc. Choosing love is almost impossible for him because of WHO he loves. Can’t wait to see your reactions to the next episodes !!
Thanks so much @André Purenne! I figured that the clash between what he wants and what his family expects would be a major component of the show. Nothing new with the "forbidden" love theming in movies/shows, but I always like to see how they approach it with the acting, writing direction. And even though I'm here for the good ol' drama, I'm also a sucker for perfectly timed/themed music and emotional speeches/statements. So if they do that part well, I'll probably be crying lol
Fun facts: Wilhelm's mother, the Queen of Sweden, is played by Pernilla August who also played Smi Skywalker - Anakin Skywalker's mother in the Star Wars prequels. The creator and most of the writers are women, all the directors are women too. The head writer Lisa Ambjörn is a great fan of the fan art and other creativity that this show has spawned in this fandom. This show is remarked upon for its great intimacy moments. That's down to the great directors and especially the intimacy co-ordinator Sara Arrhusius who has been open in communicating with the fandom about what goes in to make these moments so brilliant. Much of the crew as well as the cast are very open to showing us behind the scenes of this show in interviews and on SM. The music in this show is exceptional and has been chosen to include many female artists but also a diverse range of mostly Swedish artists. I recommend watching some of the interviews about the show that Netflix Nordic has put together on their YT channel when you're done.
Thank you so much!! A few had told me about Pernilla August already, but I didn't know any of the rest of the details you shared!! That's awesome, thank you again :) I love this show and can't wait to watch more.
I always check to see new reactors to YR, and I was so happy that there was one, great way to start my day at 5.00am in Perth Australia, loved your reaction. Although I have watched YR so many times you were the only one that mentioned the toilet paper on the table, and yes instead of paper towels, great reaction loved how you picked up on everything can't wait to watch the rest of the seasons with you. Thank you
Thank you so much, Maddalena!!! That warms my heart over on the other side of the world here in Texas! Since you're new to the channel, I can tell you that even though I realize I talk a lot and cut a lot (hazards of the trade for reactors and copyright-shy people like me, I'm afraid), I watch the show much more closely and listen when I edit. So that's why I love talking here in the comments, because there are a lot of things I miss in the first 'round. :)
This is exceptional a reactor who discuss in comments. Very appreciated. Enjoy this very emotional series, with realistic flawed characters and relationships, and creative team behind the camera.Classical class story, but very subtly treated.
Hi S! Thank you so much for the kind words. I honestly do try and reply and discuss as much as I can. I don't have moderators or admins for the comments, just little ol' me typing away on my laptop lol. I appreciate so much the time that people take out of their day to share their thoughts! I have learned so much from great feedback like yours. Thanks again
Thanks, Alicia!! I can't wait. I have to say that it does kind of spoil me when I have all current episodes available. Waiting each week for new Last of Us recently, by contrast, sucked.
Great reaction! 😊 I've heard about this show, and have heard how good it is. But never really got around to watching it. So, I'll definitely be checking it out along with you. Really enjoyed this first episode. Looking forward to your next reaction. 😊
Thank you so much, Randee! Yeah, I didn't know anything about this one going in except that it was highly recommended. And I'm not opposed to foreign (to me) language movies or shows, so I jumped at it. Could have done without the initiation scene and vomiting, but otherwise great! lol
Haha thank you!! My in-laws speak a mix of Spanish and English. They prefer Spanish to accommodate the older family members who don't speak English, but they alternate so that I'm not left out of the gossip lol. They're awesome that way.
Thank you, Andrea!! I can't wait. Next week will be the final episode of Last of Us, then Everything Everywhere All at Once, but starting the following week I'll have Young Royals every Tuesday :)
I really enjoyed this show from the start but episodes 4 - 6 really blew my mind! I love this show with all my heart and I've also become a huge fan of Omar as an artist and as a person. ❤
Hahahaha right??? I immediately liked both of them. Really everyone, actually, but their chemistry is especially good! And that’s coming from someone who doesn’t even like science lol
Loved it right away. I watched the dubbed version first. Like others have mentioned the actors actually speak English so it's far better than some other shows dubbing. I love that the artists look good but like normal people. Not airbrushed or 30 year olds being teens. Although Erin on Derry Girls totally pulled that off.
OMG yes and we know Netflix loves their 30yo teens!! lol. You're totally right. I also like that they're all new actors to me. How is Derry Girls?? That's another one I always see on my Netflix promoted shows but I don't know much about.
Well, I haven't seen the full season but I have seen reactions to the full season (no willpower ☹). Looking forward to filling in all the details and hearing what you have to say about everything. Off to a good start!
Thanks!! Yeah, I actually really liked it. Which is not always the case with new shows right off the bat. Simon is like 70% of me liking it at this point lol
Hi Joann!! Thank you so much for hanging in there. I know I pivoted with Wednesday then Last of Us to jump on those shows in "real time", but I am full-steam ahead with YR now ;) Loved the first episode!!
@@DavidvsFilm No worries really, I like when not everyone does it at the same time anyway 👍🏻 Agree with most of what you were saying and I don't even want to admit how many times I've seen it haha
@@lisamcarthur3225 No problem at all Lisa! Thank you for asking. So this Tuesday March 14th is my final reaction for The Last of Us. Starting the next Tuesday, March 21st, Young Royals will move into that space, and I’ll release a new Young Royals video every Tuesday.
I hated this show at first. The acting and story seemed fine but it had too many unlikeable characters, and I also tried to watch it right after finishing Heartstopper, a big mistake. I quit in the middle of episode 2. (If I'd stuck it out another 15 minutes I'd have kept going.) I went back into it after a while and now I'm a fan.
Haha I liked it well enough from the get-go, but a show like that for me was Breaking Bad. I must have watched the first and second episodes like 3 times before finally forcing myself to power through like it was homework lol. Now it’s one of my Top 3 favorite shows.
Yeah, I tend to binge shows pretty hard when I'm not watching them for the channel. It's killing me not to just watch the whole season in one night while eating Doritos like normal. lol
Hi Isabell!! Thank you so much. Yeah I heard that, and I want to go back and rewatch at least one episode with the dubbing just for fun. When it comes to foreign language content, however, I love me some original with subtitles. ;) Learned that lesson watching Dark on Netflix. Original German with subtitles was much more genuine feeling.
@@DavidvsFilm I totally agree! I almost all the time watch movies in the original language... there is a very good movie (I find) in (I think) from India. It's called "Sir" in the (I don't know really) original. I had to watch it in German, since there was no English dubbing for it and I really really can not understand Hindi 😂... but once I was more familiar with what was spoken I watched it in the original language. And I find that you totally watch and perceive different things if you are within the original space of the action. All the small micro mimics and gestures correspond with what is being said and even a little different translation or the timing in what word was spoken when can make a difference I find. Funnily enough I found this show (YR) because I am learning Swedish - and I'm glad I did. For more than one reason...
@@IO_sWorld haha that’s a great story about how you found YR. And I completely agree with the features corresponding more seamlessly with the dialogue, etc., of subtitles vs dibbled films. Speaking of Indian related movies, btw.. one of my absolute favorite movies is Lion with Dev Patel. The version of it I originally saw at home did not have English subtitles for the first half. So I kind of identified with how the kid felt in that respect, not having any clue what they were saying to him since he didn’t speak their language.
Hahaha I'm editing the second episode now, Larry, and I just saw Felice get her pit waxed. So, you are technically correct, but that's on the line.. lol
Damn shame, isn't it?? His schedule isn't as flexible as mine, and he has been gun shy about committing to a whole season of a show. BUT, and it's not a sure thing yet, I have almost convinced him to watch Stranger Things right after I'm done with Young Royals. That should be late April/early May :)
I made the mistake with Squid Game of watching it with the dubbed English, so I watched this in the original Swedish with English subtitles. But then I learned that the cast does their own English dub. Omar (Simon) and Edvin (Wille) speak English pretty well. I watched YR in Swedish (several times) but I did watch it in English too. That was interesting because you catch a bit more of what's being said in the background.
@@DavidvsFilm I still prefer the original Swedish because the emotion of the moment is better expressed. But if you ever want to rewatch the episode/series again, certainly try the English version. There were a couple of moments where there are people in the background speaking but the CC/subtitles don't translate what they're saying because they focus on the main conversation. I think I picked up a new tidbit that way.
@lynnhettrick7588 I agree with that. I watched it 1st in the original and then went back an watched again in English version and since I already knew what was going on/wasn't distracted reading sub titles I was able to catch so many back ground things that I had originally missed.
Mostly movies, yeah, but I started watching tv shows on the channel to be able to put out 2 videos per week rather than 1 (tv episodes are faster to edit). This week happened to be 2 shows so I could catch up on my editing after vacation, but next Friday will be another movie with Everything Everywhere All at Once.
this show is phenomenal, can't wait to see your reactions! and when you're done, if you love YR, I could only recommend you watch SKAM (which is just as good btw) :)
@@DavidvsFilm SKAM France Season 3 is AMAZING!!!! You don’t have to watch the previous seasons necessarily, since each season follows a different character.

Frida has autism (Aspergers) in real life.
Omar, the actor that plays Simon, is an actual singer, his musics are GREAT.
I didn't know if that was his real voice or not in the singing scene, but now thanks to your comment, I assume it is :) Very good!!!

@@DavidvsFilm I assume so.
Yeah the fancy Hogwarts stuff - the room & board, the horses, the booze lol...all that they have to pay for.

When it comes to foreign language content, however, I love me some original with subtitles. ;) Learned that lesson watching Dark on Netflix. Original German with subtitles was much more genuine feeling.
@@DavidvsFilm I totally agree! I almost all the time watch movies in the original language... there is a very good movie (I find) in (I think) from India. It's called "Sir" in the (I don't know really) original. I had to watch it in German, since there was no English dubbing for it and I really really can not understand Hindi 😂... but once I was more familiar with what was spoken I watched it in the original language. And I find that you totally watch and perceive different things if you are within the original space of the action. All the small micro mimics and gestures correspond with what is being said and even a little different translation or the timing in what word was spoken when can make a difference I find. Funnily enough I found this show (YR) because I am learning Swedish - and I'm glad I did. For more than one reason...
@@IO_sWorld haha that’s a great story about how you found YR. And I completely agree with the features corresponding more seamlessly with the dialogue, etc., of subtitles vs dibbled films. Speaking of Indian related movies, btw.. one of my absolute favorite movies is Lion with Dev Patel. The version of it I originally saw at home did not have English subtitles for the first half. So I kind of identified with how the kid felt in that respect, not having any clue what they were saying to him since he didn’t speak their language.
@@DavidvsFilm have to watch that one yet - it's still on my watchlist... maybe I will up that one a little 😅
@@DavidvsFilm Lion! I love that movie.
Also, really like your treeguitar T-shirt in this video.
OMGOMGOMG FINALYYLYYY
I know! It's finally time lol
The two grossest parts of the series were in this episode, so no more gross stuff!
Hahaha I'm editing the second episode now, Larry, and I just saw Felice get her pit waxed. So, you are technically correct, but that's on the line.. lol
Why is David Marc-less?
Damn shame, isn't it?? His schedule isn't as flexible as mine, and he has been gun shy about committing to a whole season of a show. BUT, and it's not a sure thing yet, I have almost convinced him to watch Stranger Things right after I'm done with Young Royals. That should be late April/early May :)
I made the mistake with Squid Game of watching it with the dubbed English, so I watched this in the original Swedish with English subtitles. But then I learned that the cast does their own English dub. Omar (Simon) and Edvin (Wille) speak English pretty well. I watched YR in Swedish (several times) but I did watch it in English too. That was interesting because you catch a bit more of what's being said in the background.
Ahhh the dilemma! That’s not common that you get the original actors. Hmm. So which did you end up preferring?
@@DavidvsFilm I still prefer the original Swedish because the emotion of the moment is better expressed. But if you ever want to rewatch the episode/series again, certainly try the English version. There were a couple of moments where there are people in the background speaking but the CC/subtitles don't translate what they're saying because they focus on the main conversation. I think I picked up a new tidbit that way.
@lynnhettrick7588 I agree with that. I watched it 1st in the original and then went back an watched again in English version and since I already knew what was going on/wasn't distracted reading sub titles I was able to catch so many back ground things that I had originally missed.
I thought you watched movies. Why are you reacting to icky icky tv shows.
Mostly movies, yeah, but I started watching tv shows on the channel to be able to put out 2 videos per week rather than 1 (tv episodes are faster to edit). This week happened to be 2 shows so I could catch up on my editing after vacation, but next Friday will be another movie with Everything Everywhere All at Once.
@@DavidvsFilm I appreciate the reply. Look forward to next Friday!
Yeah of course, Scott!! Just fyi the next 3 Fridays will be Everything Everywhere All at Once, Shawshank Redemption, then Blazing Saddles :)
this show is phenomenal, can't wait to see your reactions! and when you're done, if you love YR, I could only recommend you watch SKAM (which is just as good btw) :)
Thanks, @Lys!!! This is the first I'm hearing of SKAM (that I recall), so thank you for the recommendation :)
@@DavidvsFilm SKAM France Season 3 is AMAZING!!!! You don’t have to watch the previous seasons necessarily, since each season follows a different character.
