#AmericanVandal

[joshuaalbert]

had a dream that I already read everyone’s posts about this week’s picard so I don’t even think I need to watch the episode tbh

[cavehags]

theater camp is seemingly proof that nepo babies can make a fucking movie. I could watch nine year olds heckle dylan maxwell americanvandal calling him a "cishet bitch" while noah galvin prances about in amy sedaris drag and patti harrison does straight camp with a pair of bulky sunglasses all day

[chaotictomtom]

need to rewatch hannibal and brba/bcs and americanvandal and finish rewatching twinpeaks and rewatch+finish atlanta and and and fucking explodes

[brokenxanswers]

I hope American Vandal fandom's still alive because I wrote a fanfic based on Christa Carlyle. Please give it a chance, if this has any success I will continue writting it.

I just remember watching American Vandal and Christa seemed really nice to me even if she did draw the dicks, I always thought she was powerful and intriguing.

Here is the link and a few Christa icons I made myself ;) :

STOP WATCHING THE OFFICE:   other things to watch this summer

Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE ZIE OFFICE!! But as much as it pains me to say, the office isn’t a personality trait, so I’ve decided to make a list (e.g. Buzzfeed lists) of my top 16 recommendations for TV and podcasts to watch and listen to—since we all need to stop being basic bitches and FOCUS! 

I hope you listen to me when I say these shows are amazing and actually watch them if you have the time. I'm doing this because I care about you and your TV preferences.

I'll break it up by streaming service, starting with Netflix then Hulu, YouTube, then Podcasts last.

*I apologize in advance for the lousy grammar and lack of editing, but also not really sorry bout it.

-----------------------------------------

On NETFLIX:

1. Arrested Development

Number of Seasons: 5

Number of Episodes: 91

Hours to Binge: 35

Okay, number one on my list is Arrested development. A lot of people I talk to, especially in my age range, don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about, but this show is GENIUS... on G*D. I’ve watched it around four times now, and each time it gets better and better. I read somewhere that it was created as a satire of Bush-era incompetence and idiotic hanky-panky during the Iraq war. But at its heart, the show’s about a rich family with four adult children—who are all goofy and quirky. Their dad get’s thrown in jail for doing business with terrorists or something like that and Micheal Bluth (Jason Bateman) has to get them out of weird ass situations.

Above is one of my favorite scenes  (Best clip I could find on youtube!!).

This show has a LOT of jokes and long running bits that you kind of have to pay attention to to get the storyline. It’s hella META, and at times, can be really weird (see George Micheal Bluth and Maeby Fünke’s little Les Cousins Dangereux). In conclusion, however, Jason Bateman is hot, Micheal Cera is hot, and Tony Hale is ~super~ hot.

P.S. a lot of memes come from this show that you would know but don’t know that it’s from this show.

2. The Haunting of Hill House

Number of Seasons: 1

Number of Episodes: 10

Hours to binge: 9

Scary as f*ck! Do not watch yourself or u will die. I warned you.

I'm not going to spoil it too much, but it's about a family living in a spooky house and crazy ass shit keeps happening to them. They eventually move out, but even 20 years after--when the kids are all adults--the haunting of the house follows them.

There's even a 17 min scene that they shot in one shot!!!!!!!! That's wiLD.

3. Schitt's Creek

Number of Seasons: 5

Number of Episodes: 66

Hours to binge: 25

Yet another show about a rich family loosing all their money. A bit different than Arrested Development. This show is about a rich ass family loosing all their money and resorting to live in Schitt's Creek--a town in Nowhere, U.S.A. the family bought as a JOKE. It's a really easy watch. The characters in this show are SO un-relatable and mean it's hilarious--only if u f*ck wit dry humor tho.

Here's my favorite character, Alexis Rose just being iconic:

Give it a try, the first few episodes are rocky, but it gets better. That's a guarantee.

4. American Vandal

Number of Seasons: 2

Number of Episodes: 16

Hours to binge: 9

A lot of people already probs watch this show, but it's honestly so beautifully written. The show is an homage to Making a Murderer, a true crime mockumentary of sorts. It follows two guys, Sam and Peter as they try to figure out a mystery: WHO DREW D*CKS ON THE TEACHER'S CARS?

Also, JIMMY TATRO!!!!!

Season 2 follows a different crime and it's... it's poopy.

5. Mindhunter

Number of Seasons: 1

Number of Episodes: 10

Hours to binge: 9

YUH. Just started this, already on ep. 8, very interesting. Mindhunter is about the first FBI agents to use profiling to catch serial killers. THE CHARACTERS IN THIS SHOW WALKED SO THAT HOTCH AND REID COULD RUN.

This show is no joke and based on true serial killers like the coed killer, the shoe fetish killer, and BTK, it's very.... very creepy.

ALWAYS carry pepper spray on ya, that's fer sher.

6. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

pinot noir, caviar

7. John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid

eat ass, suck a dick, and sell drugs

8. The Good Place

is it really the good place?

---------------------------------------------

On Hulu:

9. Broad City

Number of Seasons: 5

Number of Episodes: 50

Hours to binge: 18

One of the greatest television series of all time about two baller best fraaands who get into the schemes of the century in New York City. Illana, a ferocious kween wit ZERO f*cks, and Abbi, an aspiring artiste with a great ass. The two work min-wage jobs in NYC (so they're broke) and they're just trying to find luv and a good bacon egg and cheese.

Think Sex and the City but fresh and new and wild. Abbi and Ilana's dialogue and schemes are relatable af, it makes it seem like you're there with them. Their co-dependency is so powerful... yet at moments, a lil destructive. I once had a friendship like this.. and let me tell you... co-dependency is a wild ride.

Some of the funniest scenes in this show is just of them talking on the street. Sometimes, when I'm walking with my friends, I pretend like I'm in the show lol.

I recommend you start from beginning to end because of the endless callbacks and running gags, but if not start with season 3, episode 7 B&B-NYC. Blake Griffin is in it.

10. Community

Number of Seasons: 6

Number of Episodes: 110

Hours to binge: 41

What can I say about this show to make you watch it? Well first of all the fact that Childish Gambino (Donald Glover) is in it should already have you clicking over to Hulu by now.

Community is about seven quirky misfits: a disbarred lawyer, a failed housewife, an activist everyone hates, a racist old man, a stupid jock who lost his sports scholarship, a high-strung know-it-all who took too much adderall, and abed. They all end up at Greendale Community College with a phsyco spanish teacher and a colorful dean. 

This show is kind of a parody of a sitcom, and it is VERY meta--often referring to themselves as TV show characters. The seven get into hilarious adventures and obstacles along the way. The show also genre hops from time to time. For example, they have a whole pillow fort vs. blanket fort episode (Pillows and Blankets, season 3, episode 4) in a Ken Burns documentary style, an episode in claymation for Christmas (Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas, season 2, episode 11), and a bunch of paintball episodes in style of Quentin Tarantino and StarWars.

Again, you should start at the beginning, but if you want to get into it quickly, I really loved Pillows and Blankets (season 3, episode 4).

11. The Mindy Project

As a "petite asian woman" who is not petite, this show is very relatable. About finding love and eating good in the big apple.  

P.S. If you don't like Kelly from the office, you're dead 2 m3.

12. Brooklyn 99

Cool. coolcoolcoolcool. Jake Peralta is the greatest detective/genius.

13. Superstore

If Walmart and the office had a baby and it was incompetent.

---------------------------------------------

On YouTube and Facebook Watch:

14. The Real Bros of Simi Valley

Number of Seasons: 2

Number of Episodes: 14

Hours to binge: 4

You straight up know these guys, fool. Four stoner/burn-outs who think your hometown's Mexican food is the best in the world. Amazingly written and surprisingly good acting. Lightweight lowkey thought they were speaking another language at first.

Jimmy Tatro, Cody Ko, Getter, and Nick Colletti. What more do you want? LITERALLY WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?

The unnecessary drama and endless quotable jokes in this show leads you wanting more with only 14 episodes totaling at around four hours.

Watch the first season YouTube here:

---------------------------------------------

Podcasts:

15. Tiny Meat Gang

Aha hah bro last night was a movie bro ON GOD.

Noel Miller and Cody Ko talk about literally anything, but goofy. I can listen to them talk for straight up hours.

I usually listen on Apple Podcasts, but you can also watch on YouTube:

https://youtu.be/ZCMs4FrC_c0

Just start listening, bro.

16. My Favorite Murder

No shade to Codel, but My Favorite Murder is my all time favorite podcast. Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark  are two hilarious women who love murder. Not murdering, but the psychology of murderers and survivors. Each Thursdays each of them tell a story about a murder. They don't make fun of murders, but it's their banter that makes it fun to listen to.

If you're a fan of true crime at all, please listen so I have more people to talk about it with. shouts outs Jenna for putting me on to the show!

Here are my favorite episodes!

*tip: skip the first 15-20 min to the first murder when first listening.

150: How Dare You Kill Kelli

The Hanging of Alice Riley and The Murder of Reyena Marroquin

131: The Uninhibited

The Murder of Standford White and The Case of the Boys on the Tracks

Hi Peter, my name is Chloe Lyman and I’m a junior at St. Bernadine Catholic. I’m contacting you today because we have a vandal.

[xmptxwxllxts]

Opinión: American Vandal.

Bueno, en esta publicación excribiré mi opinión respecto a la serie de America Vandal.

Empezé a verla este Junio de 2019 y la acabé este mismo mes de hecho. Cuenta con dos temporadas de ocho capítulos cada una. 

PRIMER TEMPORADA.

El primer capítulo de la primera temporada es sin duda una joya. Se nos presenta a lo personajes principales (Peter y Sam) así como al personaje que se iba a tratar (Dylan) y el caso que iba a sacar a relucir (27 pollas dibujadas en 27 carros de profesoras en un día de reunión) y aunque al principio esto me saco de onda porque aceptemoslo se escucha algo tonto, pero no. 

La primera temporada por mucho mi favorita de las dos que tiene sin lugar a dudas, la forma en que se presentan los personajes de una forma tan realista que parece que enserio van a una escuela. Lo preferido de esto, es que como un caso de este tipo saca a relucir fallas y favoritismos así como corrupción por parte de su escuela (ejemplo: el caso de las quejas no actualizadas). 

Lo que sin lugar a duda me saco de onda fue el último hecho, lo de Christa siendo la posible culpable de todo. 

SEGUNDA TEMPORADA.

Al igual que la primera temporada, el primer capítulo es una joya. 

El caso puede sonar hasta gracioso a cierto punto de hecho, pero esto es muy serio y para nada graciosas, es humillante en todo caso. 

La introducción de los nuevos fueron todas muy buenas y todos me encantaron, aunque el se gano mi corazón fue DeMarcus<3 y un poco Jenna. 

No hablaré mucho de esta temporada, porque en mi sincera opinión hubo algunas partes de diversos capítulos que de verdad me empezaron a aburrir y un poco hartantes pero buenoo, en general también fue una buena temporada. 

PETER MALDONADO.

Abro esta sección porque soy completamente una fan de este personaje.

[kallieburgers]

American Vandal Season 2 is on point.

[xulebsaurio]

Somos la primera generación que puede vivir dos vidas. Al mismo tiempo que vivimos nuestra existencia, la curamos, la presentamos, la empaquetamos, la pulimos protegernos. Construimos fortalezas digitales en bits, bytes y píxeles. Muros hechos de ceros y unos, máscaras. Todos creamos versiones nuestras para aparentar ser los curadores de nuestra historia, para aparentar que tenemos el control de nuestra vida. Pero fingir no significa que somos plástico. La imaginación es lo que nos hace humanos, nos permite descubrir que versión de nosotros mismos nos queda mejor. No somos la peor generación, somos la más expuesta, recibimos retroalimentación constante, y juicio. Entonces, quizá la máscara es el arma de supervivencia de esta época, quizá nos brinda una fina capa de protección. Un lugar para crecer, describir y reinventar. Lo importante es tener gente que nos conozca sin la máscara y ser felices como somos, por dentro. #americanvandal #americanvandalseason2 #shit #mask #shitstorm #theturdburglar https://www.instagram.com/p/BoyGe_GgIAkokybXLI-s4c8xt2Q97v2fQHtSUU0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i5g1asxhklv4

Everything Sucks is a sweetness.

C’est un petit bonbon, pas trop long, pas trop cliché. Et comparé à tord à Stranger Things. Oui c’est une série Netflix. Oui c’est rétro. Oui c’est des minots. MAIS ce n’est pas le même format, ni la même tonalité. 

C’est comme si vous compariez Stranger Things à Riverdale. Everything Sucks ressemble selon moi plutôt à American Vandal. En particulier quand la caméra fait des plans hasardeux et que l’on se croit dans un mockumentary (de drôles de zooms dans les gros plans).

La série repose en partie sur l’idée de se situer dans les années 90. Et c’est une bonne idée : pas de technologies modernes actuelles, qui ne sont pas si télégéniques. L’absence de portables simplifie la mise en scène des relations entre les protagonistes. Les vieilles VHS (pour nous, homo sapiens du XXIe siècle) avec le matériel du club vidéo permettent de développer énormément d’aspects dans l’histoire. C’est un ressort dans le déroulement du récit.

Enfin, étant née dans les années 1990, la nostalgie ne m’a pas frappé. Il ne faudrait pas que cela nous obnubile, comme cela peut être le cas chez ces trentenaires, voir quarantenaires qui ont découvert Stranger Things  à l’automne 2016. Cette série m’a permis notamment de découvrir une chanteuse qui m’était jusqu’alors inconnue. Peut-être est-ce la preuve que les années 80 ont surpassé les années 90 dans la pop culture actuelle.

Puis beaucoup vont parler du fait que la série aborde l’homosexualité. Mieux encore, celle entre femmes, que l’on peut retrouver dans des séries comme Glee, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, ou encore The Fosters (liste non exhaustive). Mais cela reste ici un peu la thématique au cœur de la série, enfin en particulier le fait de découvrir celle-ci, cette sexualité. Et là j’ai alors lu, au détour d’un article de presse, des comparaisons notamment avec la série, génialissime, Skins, qui abordait alors pleinement cette thématique. MAIS, si mes souvenirs sont bons, Naomi accompagne Emily dans son outing alors qu’ici, dans Everything Sucks, Kate n’a pas de personnage ouvertement gay dans son entourage. Cela change la dynamique. Et le ton est complétement différent entre les deux séries. Skins était alors une série innovante dans ce qu’elle osait montrer, raconter et qui marque mes souvenirs de spectatrice comme quelque chose de fou.

Everything Sucks est plus innocente. Elles ne sont pas comparables. C’est pour cela qu’il ne faut pas regarder cette série avec des a priori.Sinon vous passerez à côté. Inévitablement, elle se rapproche de Freaks and Geeks. Luke et ses copains sont des geeks, et des petits nouveaux dans le lycée. Ils sont dans le club vidéo, ou son équivalent. Et Luke veut bien sûr tourner un film, qui est alors aussi un prétexte pour le récit, et pour créer un rapprochement entre certains personnages, en particulier aux ceux du club d’art dramatique. Leur implication nous raccroche à l’idée usuelle que nous avons des séries qui se déroulent dans les High School américain. Certes, la série ne fait pas le cas d’une équipe sportive, ni de football, ni de lacrosse, ou autre sport très local.

Là encore, l’idée de réaliser une production filmée rapproche un peu plus la série avec American Vandal.

Cette petite série, en temps et en nombre d’épisodes, se bingewatch, merci Netflix pour ce format. Les épisodes ne dépasse pas les 25 minutes, et dès le troisième l’attachement envers les personnages se développe. Envers Luke et Kate bien sûr. Mais très vite le principal et la mère de Luke, Sherry, par leur tendresse, retiennent notre attention.

Everything Sucks ne se foulent pas de complexité, et n’a d’ailleurs pas eu droit à une énoooorme couverture médiatique, mais elle a le mérite d’être agréable et attachante.

Format : 25 mn ; Diffuseur : Netflix

Statut : saison 1 unique

PS: J’avais commencé à écrire mes ressentis sur cette série il y a quelques temps déjà, et notamment à y poser des mots présents dans cet écrit, et je suis toujours en accord avec mes mots, malgré le recul et l’annulation de la série.
