    going over to sleep at your bestfriends house for 2 days and fighting with them and bonding with their family instead was so accurate i cried laughing 😭

    THIS SHOW SPOKE TO MY SOUL - as a half asian girl who struggled terribly in middle school, Maya's character had me in tears at some points. Especially when she was looking at her face in the mirror during the racism episode, and you can see how unhappy she felt with her asian heritage in that moment. That shit SPOKE TO ME!! And then the both of them together had me in tears during the comedic scenes, in a good way. PLEASE MORE EPISODES!! best show ever!

      I'm half Polynesian and that episode spoke to me. It seemed she didn't feel White enough or Asian enough and she wanted to know what it would be like if she was more asian or more white.

    I completely agree with her when she says that we never leave our middle school selves. I feel like we are more refined versions of that part of ourselves. I teach middle school because it’s such an important part of life! They captured the cringe and the beauty of that point in life

    -Pen15 and Broad City are two of the most brilliant comedies of the last 5 years.

    • @HipsterKid33
      @HipsterKid33 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@nphardin1 right!? Seasons 1&2 of Broad City were the best. Season 3 was good but I could tell it was starting to lose its shine by then.

    I love the fact that as adults they wanted to create a show for other adults about Middle School situations and memories but basically like she said make it an R-rated version. So us adults could laugh and enjoy it more...but actually relate! I already finished both seasons in less than a week. Love these Queens! One of the best shows of 2020 for sure.

    For ppl upset by 30s playing 13 yr old. The show takes place in the year 2000. The art in them being 30 playing 13 is that this is exactly what it was like for us 30 year olds in the year 2000. Its cool to be taken back and reminded. It wouldnt carry the same meaning if it was 13 yr olds today pretending then knew what it was like in the year 2000. It be weird. Maybe your not in the right generation to understand.

      Many don’t understand how much has changed in the past 8 or so years and how differently hyper sexualized and unsympathetic to emotional intelligence in youth even in the late 90s and early 00s and the era captured in the show. It’s so brilliantly done. I’m a dude. And this connected to my youth in a way as you and they have said no other show has touched before. Season 2 is great. It goes so fast but it’s good. Season 3 will be amazing they have to keep making it!

    He mentions how they hold their bodies when acting and I agree--and to add--I noticed how the most popular girl in class (in Pen15) has good, mature posture and isn't trying to hide anything.

    @ceciliomendoza5138 5 ปีที่แล้ว +36

    This show is one of my favorites of all time. She really did do a good job on portraying it as a memory. I think thats why their emotions were so big and the other kids were more mute

  • @gm7285

      I just started watching PEN15, and I told my wife about it. She asked me what it was like, and I told her that it was like 'Welcome To The Dollhouse'. My wife introduced me to indie films back when started dating about 20 years ago. I think she'll definitely enjoy it.

    I just finished the episodes that are there and holy shit 😭. I was never a teenage girl but I was a teenage boy and "Sam" and "Choji" was most definitely me at different points . The detail in how they wrote all the characters is so insane I was laughing and crying. My sister and her best friend reminded me so much of Maya and Anna and how Maya would fight with her brother and how Anna had a slight crush on him was so goddamn spot on. Just the idea that these 2 preteens felt as thoe the events that were happening was the most important events in their lives is heartbreaking and so relatable. Cuz we all felt that way. Little did we know that HS would come packaged with a whole other layer of shit and then life after that. Middle school was a strange time for alot of us and I love and appreciate how well these 2 ladies captured that. #Fuckbrandt

    This show is so on point it's crazy, especially for me as an Asian American I relate so much with Maya. These 2 characters are hilarious! So funny I sometimes can't breathe, I literally piss my panties laughing. It blows my mind how creatively funny this show is and how talented these actresses are, the show, the cast, the script is absolutely genius! I'm super grateful for this show and blessed to be a huge fan!

    Easily the best show of 2019. Super well written. Funny almost all the time, except in the episode Posh that had many serious parts but incredibly well done and seen by the eyes of 13 year old girls. Amazing. Love it.

    I totally thought they pull off 13 yo s, I didn’t know they were in their 30s at first. And even knowing that now I still think they absolutely are those characters. It had a lot to do with their ability to fully emerge themselves in the language, facial expressions, nuanced body language- they have to have gotten some Best Actress awards & wins, they are just that good.

    I'd like to see a "making of" clip because the leg shaving scene seems was sooooo over the top I'd like to know how they got a suitable amount of hair on their legs.
    And the throbbing monster scene was only reinforced by Maya's glazed looks the whole rest of the episode. That's what sold it.
