The pills in the show were technically fake but they were supposed to be the same as Librium which is the old timey equivalent of something like a strong Valium or Xanax. People used to eat them like candy. They just calm most people and make them happy but her brain chemistry is probably different because she’s so smart so I think they work differently on her. They make her focus better.
Having started a reaction series to the show myself, I decided to watch others do it (after uploading the related episode of course), and I gotta say, out of the 4-5 I've seen so far, I liked yours the most. You guys might not be geniuses like Beth, but you still had great insights, your hearts seem to be in the right place and the chemistry between you is just awesome. Great sense of humor too. Loved it, can't wait to see the rest!
When people get asked if they can play chess and say "no but I play checkers", lol that's like saying do you know how to build an engine? No but I have some HotWheels!
@@TheCincyreds45212 he truly was an inspiration. His death was so impactful even a stranger came up to me on the subway to talk about it. As you said, I’m dreading the ‘anniversary’
I think Beth is on the spectrum. She has awkward interactions. She has no filter on how she talks to people which shows little to no emotional intelligence. She is most definitely a mathematical genius.
I thought the same thing, she is very socially awkward and she obsessed with one thing (chess) and knows everything about that one thing like a lot of people on the spectrum are.
Shane !! Brother it’s been almost three weeks !!! I can’t take this much waiting lmao it’s going to take literally 5 months to finish an 8 episode show at this rate 😳😳😂😂
LOL I’m working on getting Queens Gambit edited ASAP! Sorry for the delay. We’ve had some unexpected and uncontrollable things happen but we are getting those issues worked out and will be releasing much faster going forward. Thanks for hanging in there with us!
Mindi because it took a while for the algorithm to finally start rewarding my efforts! Set up a new shop so I hope you like it! Also I gave you a sub! - Shane
The show isn't based on a true story. It's based on a novel. But many of the characters resemble real people. Beth shares some traits with Bobby Fischer. The Russian Beth plays in Paris in the opening sequence, is similar to Boris Spassky.
Hey Shane, have you heard about Bridgerton? Also, on Netflix and a good watch. Plus, I just started watching Cobra Kai, it is a series based on the future of Karate Kid. Really good watch so far! Hope you react to these and keep up with the reactions. Happy new year! Bless up!
The most chilling line in the whole series, "Close your eyes!" Jolene is brutal here yet blithe. This is the one incongruity in the series I have yet to imagine an adequate explanation to. It doesn't ruin it for me. On the contrary, it makes it more tantalizing. I'd like to hear the director's explanation. It's just seems more tone deaf than I would attribute to Jolene. Sure, the missing book, yet this goes beyond.
Hey man! any chance we'll see vikings reactions coming up? You always seemed to love the show the most out of the old group, Looking forward to seeing more stuff!
Hey sorry our editing took a break for the holidays but we are working on resuming our schedule soon this is a reaction series that we have had loaded up for a while and we are finally able to put the first episode! Don’t worry raised by wolves is coming we should have the new episode of this week it’s definitely one of my favorite shows!

Lol yep
Your comments on Kobe make me emotional. I loved that guy and am still so sad that he’s gone. He was a legend
Yes Messa, so hard to think about even a year later. I’m dreading the one year anniversary

@@messajarjarbinks6853 as great as Kobe was at basketball it was his life off the court that I was so excited to see. He was doing amazing things.

Actually Benny Watts is based on Fischer.

Hey Zain! Thanks man! He’s still with us just not reacting to Queen’s Gambit. You’re gonna see him in a lot of future shows we are going to drop!
Editing on point!
algorithm commentt
Great reaction john snow
Beth reminds me of Will Hunting.
I started watching this show and I like it, it's rather not my cup of tea but it's fine.
Hey man! any chance we'll see vikings reactions coming up? You always seemed to love the show the most out of the old group, Looking forward to seeing more stuff!
Yes legit Monday it’ll be out
@@3rdstreetreactions Can't wait!
Scolars mate is one of the short mates. Fools mates even shorter.
I love chess I play it all the time. My father taught me when I was 10 been playing for 8 years now and I'm nowhere near pro🤣🤣😭😭
Hi
Wow. Horrible edit. Glad it happened early. It saved me 6 more episodes of clueless editing. 😮
Lol I believe this is one of Jamies first edits literally ever. I think he improves greatly as we go on. Much love - Shane
@@3rdstreetreactions ok. I'll watch a few more. LOL
Raised By Wolves
?????
Hey sorry our editing took a break for the holidays but we are working on resuming our schedule soon this is a reaction series that we have had loaded up for a while and we are finally able to put the first episode! Don’t worry raised by wolves is coming we should have the new episode of this week it’s definitely one of my favorite shows!
@@3rdstreetreactions thought you mighta stopped..
Thanks
It's not a true story. It's a book from the 80's.
