Reacting to Heartstopper Season 2 - Episode 1 "Out" (IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!!!)

Comments

Not sure if you have been made aware yet x just started watching your content ☺️ The school is Burnham upper school, just up the road from where i grew up x

Okay! Have just jumped into a sponsored subscription because your reactions are the best! I found you after seeing Sweeney Todd live and finding your reaction to Not While I’m Around (have watched it literally 6 times, maybe more? The soundtrack is living in my head rent free now) I just love your heart driven reactions. So lovely. I’m just starting your s2 reactions and literally just waiting for the s3 content to roll in bc as a reader of the comic I know it will be 😍. Well done, thanks! 💫

My comment is very very late, but I needed a good cry so rewatching HS felt like the best solution. ❤️❤️ According to Alice in a Q&A I read, the 2 month anniversary starts from the first time they kissed in Charlie’s room in Season 1 Episode 4. So the locker room scene takes place about 2 months after that episode.

Brian Sheehan

I've watched your reactions to seasons 1 and 2 of Heartstopper on YouTube 4 times at least. Your empathic responses and emotions made me decide to join both on YouTube and here. I think I maybe ace as well but I'm not sure. Thank you for being so open. 💓

Marcus Sullivan

Adorable.

I noticed Kit has been hitting the gym. Nick looks much taller and bigger than Charlie in the novels so Kit bulking up aligns more with the books. Imogen being a part of the queer group is sooo wonderful!

Bit late to respond, but if you were still wondering, the now closed E-ACT Burnham Park Academy on Opendale road in Burnham was used for the Truham exterior and MOST of the interior shots. I don't know why the school in Herne is listed so prominently online as a filming location; perhaps for the gym scenes and maybe Higgs. All the hallways, most of the classrooms, the rugby scenes, the street scenes where Tao is looking for Elle in S1E1 and where Charlie waits for the bus, were all at E-ACT. Even the large room (auditorium) in S2E2 where the teachers meet with the parents and *spoiler* is decorated for prom in E8 *end spoiler* is there. Another interesting note about this room: it is where the cast have had their first read through each season, and was also where Charlie, Tao, and Nick's bedroom sets were built for S1. Apparently the bedrooms were rebuilt at a movie studio in London for S2. E-ACT really seems to serve as the shows home base for the production. Also, Burnham Park directly to the east of the school is the park with the dead tree stump next to which our boys spend a few afternoons. ...and if you really do want to walk by the locations for Charlie's and Nick's houses, message me privately and I can get you those addresses. I would rather not post them publicly as they are almost certainly private residences.

Absolutely loved this first episode. I promised myself I'd watch these alone (my hubby thinks they're a little saccharine, but I forgive him), and spread them out, one or two per day. I'll try to watch them once before I watch Jackie's reaction videos. The second time around is even better than the first!

Douglas Rayner

Hi, loved your season 1 reactions on youtube so just subscribed to rewatch those and can't wait for more of season 2. Really enjoy the technical/artistic commetary as well as the content! Here's a book list for all the books Isaac reads in Season 2 :-) https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/every-book-isaac-reads-in-heartstopper-season-2/

Berni Sweeney

There's an interview with Joe and Kit where they say that there weren't any extras at all when they filmed in the Louvre, yet the scene shows lots of people. Not sure if they've green screened or CGI'd them in?

Berni Sweeney

I feel the same! I even went into this season with expectations (having read the graphic novels) where as S1 I had no idea about the novels or anything Alice Oseman. This season delivered on SO MANY things, leaving me in tears countless times. I've even gone back to rewatch it a second time and with the excitemed rose glasses gone, the emotions hit even more.

Michael D

The way I fussed at you for missing it, then figured you would catch it in the editing process. Glad you did. ❤️Such an amazing callback.

The Homesick Brit

Omg thank you, a did try to zoom in on it but I couldn't for the life of me find out what he was reading!

Nicky Van den Bosch

I was absolutely howling when I saw it!!!

Jackie-Ross Lavender

I was going to call you out for that one! Imogene is an absolute legend

Kurt Anderson

The bigger budget was one of the first things I noticed. Here's one result I think is really cool. Last season, when they'd show a big crowd they did not have a big crowd of extras. They'd have maybe fifteen extras they'd shoot in one place, then do a costume change and put them in a new place, shoot them there, repeat as necessary. Then combine them all in editing to look like one big crowd. But this meant they couldn't have the camera close enough to see their faces as that would give it away. THIS time they've got more money (and COVID restrictions are looser) so they can hire all the extras they need and show all their faces. Much better!

Steve Teeter

I wouldn’t say no editing decisions to be made but it’s certainly still quicker than a youtube edit. a patreon versions take just about an hour to edit. Youtube take 2-3 hours.

Jackie-Ross Lavender

The uncut version he can always put up quickly because there are no editing decisions to be made.

Steve Teeter

GUYS! I AM RE-EDITING FOR YOUTUBE AND I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED DARCY SAYING "ITS FINE! SHE'S AN ALLY!" AND NOW I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Jackie-Ross Lavender

Thank you! 😊

Thiago Carvalho

I have LOVED reading through all these comments 😍😍😍😍😍

Jackie-Ross Lavender

Huge welcome to Patreon, Thiago! Love seeing you over here ♥️

Jackie-Ross Lavender

Thanks, Joe! It was a labour of love but wanted something a little (a lot) jazzier!

Jackie-Ross Lavender

Hey! So what we normally do is 2 videos a week. 1 full length reaction and then one patreon exclusive ♥️

Jackie-Ross Lavender

I also binged it … and I can’t even think about this season without getting teary eyed ♥️ my heart is so full right now. And I’m gonna watch it again and again until season 3 comes out 🙈 My favorite episodes were 1,4,6 and especially 8…I sobbed 😭 I’m literally obsessed!

Frances

S2 binged. Very satisfying. More than a few tears. Rewatching E1 with your reactions has been such a kick. Please don’t make us wait for the rest.

Mark Edwards

I binged it last night and can’t wait to rewatch it!

Laura Ibarra

That is definitely the book. It’s one of the UK covers available on the Waterstone’s website. 👍

The Homesick Brit

Awww thanks 😊

Kim Engel

Bravo Mom. What a great takeaway to share.

Trey Cummins

Everyone here has such a nice way with words. I don’t have much to add except that my kid has a friend group like this, and I’m grateful for it every single day.

Kim Engel

I watched the whole season earlier today and I think it’s even better than season 1, if that’s possible. I love that friendship is so central straight away and Nick becoming part of Charlie’s friendship group is so important for him in his continuing journey of being comfortable in his relationship with himself and Charlie as a couple. But..when I heard Charlie saying at the end of this episode that everything was going to be perfect, it did strike a chill into my heart, because thinking that it’s his responsibility to make it perfect for Nick and spare him from the bullying and pain which he suffered is only going to put enormous and probably unsustainable pressure on Charlie. This season is going to take us all on quite an emotional journey.

Graham & Ruth May

OMG, i have only watched this one episode with you, about to go binge the rest of the season though, i can't believe the size of the grin i had on my face the whole time, i think i was actually hyperventilating at one point!! SOO much to unpack and we're only 1 episode in, love how the whole gang is growing with the addition of Imogen now as well, she needs to have girlfriends around her instead of hanging with Ben and his gang all the time. Talking of Ben, you and I shouted 'NO' at the exact same time when she told Nick that's who she fancied now and poor Nick is stuck sitting with him for the whole two weeks of study hall, which btw, we did not have at my school, you were just given study leave and you did it at home. Tao and Elle are going to be unbearable until they finally kiss aren't they, i'd also like to know what is behind Tao's quickness to flare up about things, there has to be something to it. I can't remember what else i was going to say, but i'm sure i'll come back and say it when i remember!!!

Audrey Gunn

Btw I’m 95% sure Isaac was reading Ace of Spades

Charlie

I also binged it - I’m in California so I was up form midnight to 4:30 am and have ZERO regrets! Such a beautiful season!! 😭🥰

Laura Ibarra

I thoroughly enjoyed watching season 2 and I can't wait to see your thoughts. We've seen Nick and Charlie's relationship grow and we've seen friend group wholesomeness. What else could we possibly want? I find that the filming style is different to season one but I think if it was the same wholesome innocence that the first season had it wouldn't work the same but I think that it grows as our characters grow and effectively tells their stories.

Ryan Walter

I binged the entire season as soon as it dropped. Real talk: I think this season is even better than the first. I was SO emotional with every episode

Charlie

Binged the entire season last night but honestly loved even more watching your reaction here in Patreon. Absolutely great first episode sets up a lot for the season good and ill . I still so love your reaction. I am conflicted with a few choices in later episodes but I'll hold my tongue til we are there. An absolute smash first episode and the kissing montage to begin was almost as good as hi... Hi

Trey Cummins

Having watched all episodes now, my heart feels so full! Thank you Alice again!

Thiago Carvalho

Pretty sure that's the book. I found it on Amazon by Faridah Abike-Lyimide but yeah it had a different cover.

Joe Lancaster

Hi just wondering what the upload schedule is going to be like for season 2?

Daniel Frye

Forgot to mention the other day how much I love the intro you have too!

Joe Lancaster

I woke up and watched the first two episodes. Ran a bunch of errands and came home and rewatched the first two episodes. Now watching the first one again here! Loving it so far!!

Joe Lancaster

Impressed you got this up so quickly. I'll circle back after I've watched the entire season. It's an extra foggy and blustery day here in SF so perfect for staying in and binging.

Mark Edwards

I’m only three episodes in at the moment, and already there all sorts of things I want to say that I can’t say yet. I can say that there is a book called “Ace of Spades” that might be the one Isaac is reading, though I can’t find a version of it with that cover. And that I can already see we’re in for a bit of a rollercoaster ride, even more than in the comic.

Lane Wright

I can’t believe I started crying before the first title card came up. Already finished the second season. Will be binge watching it several more times this weekend

Kurt Anderson

I watched all 8 episodes today. I think I've never seen something that wonderful 💖 I really really loved it and will watch it again right now and then again... ❤️
