Hellooo so u are like the only skam blog i know still exists lol and i just got back into skam and there are now like a bajillion versions and many new characters so anyway i had two questions.

1) what are ur favorite skams to see (besides the og?) Which ones do u recommend? You can say specific seasons or a whole show!

2) why is it that when i google " skam s3" i get mostly french skam results😂 is it better than the og skam s3 or? When i stopped watching og skam s3 was like. Unparalleled

omg hi im so flattered you remember me jhgfghjhgfh

ok so each skam remake has its issues but my favorites are skamNL, skam españa, and skam austin; though druck is also good. imo these are the only ones worth watching and each of them bring something different to the table!

the ones i like:

skam netherlands: only got 2 seasons but the characters are so fun and stylish and it has a really great vibe, i barely watched season 2 bc that’s the noorhelm season lmfao but anyway i think it’s worth a watch for sure!! i loveee isa (eva) and liv (noora) especially. also esra (she doesn’t have an og skam equivalent) is so beautiful and a lesbian i declare

skam españa: the first 3 seasons were actually so perfect, and then they messed up in the amira (sana) season unfortunately. it also has a really lovely vibe and a lot of love between the characters and the only joneva i would support getting back together! also season 2 has a relationship between 2 bi girls as the focus!!! and season 3 is the only season among all skam versions that deals with abuse & also the only decent noorhelm. i think this one is objectively the best, but also they really dropped the ball in season 4 :(

skam austin: some people think it’s cringey but it’s honestly my favorite! the only female isak (shay!! my url!!!!) and it’s just a ton of fun and sparks joy and i miss it so much - also only got 2 seasons :(((

druck (german skam): i hate mia (noora)’s season more than i can tell you (altho i like mia :( just like fuck druck’s noorhelm & it’s so lesbophobic like...) BUT their season 3 is genuinely so great and original and their even is trans which is just amazing. also they’ve continued with seasons 5 and 6 with a new generation of characters INCLUDING FATOU WHO I WOULD DIE FOR!!!! (lesbian) also good vibes. also they had the least bad sana season i think. 

the ones i don’t like

skam france: the one everyone rags on but it deserves it bc it’s legit so bad..... like they took skam (good vibes) and made it into a melodramatic teen show with like sex scenes and literally zero lighting. their evak (eliott and lucas) was pretty good but their other seasons are bad. i wouldn’t even go so far as to say it’s one of the best evaks honestly, but their season 3 is one of skam france’s better seasons, if not the best / only good one. but yeah skam france really took a teen show and made it dramatic and adult-y and it’s just bad vibes

skam italia: racist mess.... dont go near

wtfock (belgian skam): BAD!!!! LITERALLY SO BAD like it has so many offenses i couldn’t even try to recall all of them but i think the worst thing they did was have their evak (robbe & sander) get beaten up for no reason like they just had them get hatecrimed in robbe’s season for shock value lol. horrible show. bad vibes

also to answer your question here is my ranking of the evaks (besides original bc idk where 2 put that bc it has a special place in my heart)

crisana (skam es) but im biased bc they’re the only wlw evak but literally they are great and i love them

davenzi (druck) good sweet vibes & good chemistry :)

elu (skam fr) bc their season was honestly really fun im sorry like sue me. that scene where lucas plays the piano is so romantic

idk their ship name but sander x robbe (wtfock) they had legit good chemistry and were super sweet but the writing..... bad.... also so sexualized rip.......

skam italia’s evak idr their names but aside from skam italia being awful they also had NO CHEMISTRY lmaoooo like the cinematographers started shooting really darks scenes 2 mask how much the actors clearly did not want to kiss each other. comedy....

[inmyarmswrappedin]

i've always found this one incredibly cheesy and very easy to do wrong so, the girls fight scene in s1

Hi Ela 🌺 I love that you've asked me this, but ngl I'm not sure that I can give a satisfying answer. My cheese-o-meter needs, like, a serious amount of lactose to get moving. I mean, I answer my asks with a cute emoji after a greeting, I'm not sure I get to call out the fight scenes' cheesiness.

But I did watch all of them and I have a few comments:

Skam - Honestly the song is so well-chosen for the scene and the choreography that I had to watch the scene a second time because the first time I got distracted by just how fun it is to watch.

Skam France - This version is the cheesiest for me. I have no issue with choosing classical music for the fight, but I wish they'd gone with something more hardcore, in the style of Ride of the Valkyries or O Fortuna, because it is portrayed as a full on fight. My other problem with the scene is that Philippine Stindel just... isn't good at portraying Emma, not in s1. So where you could see Eva was devastated not just by the fight but by Iben calling her a fucking wh*r* and the fact that it all happened so publicly... Philippine is the go girl, give us nothing! meme. Literally every other girl in the squad emotes more than her and seems more shaken by the fight than she is.

I also didn't think the fight was well choreographed or shot, I really have no idea what's going on for most of it.

Druck - I think the song in this instance is well chosen, and the choreography is good too, there are a lot of individual shots where we can see how each girls throws down. I also have to shout out a couple of details, such as Jule handing off her bag to one of her friends before she comes for Hanna's life, as well as having a fourth girl come in from the rear.

Skam Italia - The one thing I have to say about this scene is that for weeks Italian fans were hoping that the Latin dictionary came out to play for this scene, as it’s a thick book that can do some damage. And Italian Sana did indeed use it to beat down a girl, which resulted in much rejoicing.

Skam Austin - Iiii don’t like this scene. Not because it isn’t well shot or choreographed or the music sucks or it’s cheesy. My main issue is no way this would happen at a US high school without everyone involved getting suspended. US high schools are hardcore about student behavior, and it’s only gotten progressively more strict with time (because of gun violence). In particular, the fact that a school club (Kelsey’s dance team) was involved, would mean that the dance team would be disbanded, because they don’t even have a history at the school and all five members participated in the fight. This is one scene where Julie just didn’t have the cultural insight. It should’ve taken place literally anywhere else. 

But I also feel like the music reflected Megan’s feelings more than the actual fight, which again, not sure I’m into when it is actually a full blown fight.

On the plus side I will highlight Zoya yelling, “Run up then, bitch!”

Skam España - Honestly, I don’t think the team wanted to do a full on fight, so they kinda didn’t. And I know people have issues with the song they chose, since it’s slow and it doesn’t go with a fight, but like... What fight, though? Lara slapped Eva and then was pulled away by like five different people lol. And the violence isn’t even the point of it, but rather Eva feeling like the jig is up after Jorge realizes what happened. (Which is what the lyrics are about, but that’s a bonus for people who understand Spanish.) Idk... I have emphasized that the songs chosen for other versions don’t work when it’s a huge fight, but in the case of eskam, the emotions are all more complicated because it’s not just the girl squad, but also Jorge and Lucas (who heard the whole thing from Eva earlier in the episode). There are some eskam scenes where I haven’t liked how they were adapted, but this one I do like.

Points for Cris coming in late (because she was hooking up with that other girl) and being all, “wtf happened???” 

And as an additional note, the team then drove the point home that the slow song was only happening in Eva’s head, by having Inés post a video that she was ostensibly sent by someone who was at the party, and we can hear that the song that was actually playing during the fight was Better Now. Also, you gotta love the Queen Bitch move of publicizing the humiliation for anyone who missed it. Inés really ate that revenge cold over and over and over again. 

Skam NL - Funnily enough the fight clip illustrates my major gripe with Skam NL and it is that Skam NL hugely relies on knowledge of Skam to make sense plot-wise. I will go in more detail in another scene ask, but in most other remakes, the girls explain that the Penetrator Chris’ girlfriend found out his boyfriend cheated on her with the Eva, or in the case of eskam, Lara spells it out for us. Here, Engel is barely done feeling sorry for herself before Gijs’ gf and her squad cuts in and knees Isa’s crotch. And if you’ve seen seven other versions of this scene, you know that’s P-Chris’ gf and she found out Eva made out wih her bf, but if it’s your first time watching? I can guarantee most people have no idea who this girl, who we previously saw once, in a costume, even is. 

But I do like that Isa fights back, because I think it goes with her personality. The song choice is fine, but it made me wish they’d used Smack My Bitch Up by The Prodigy instead. 

WTFock - This scene gave me the weirdest feeling that Marie didn’t actually intend to come for Jana’s whole career, but to just kind of send her a warning? Like in some of the other versions, I get the feeling the Iben is ready to punch the teeth out of the Eva’s mouth, but the whole vibe of this scene gave me a kind of drive-by shooting vibe, like their hearts weren’t really into it. I think it’s the way they don’t really need much physical force to be pulled off the girl squad. So I would say this is another remake where the fight didn’t really work the way it did in Skam, even though they actually reused the song from the original clip. (Die Antwoord’s Baby’s on Fire.) Adding to the lackluster effect there is the issue that this clip doesn’t close the week as in Skam, and it definitely doesn’t feel like an episode ender. It’s the first clip of the week. Druck also had a clip after their fight (that was back when Druck didn’t know wtf it was doing), but the fight itself still felt like an episode ender.

I think that rando giving Zoë her beret back was a fun detail though.

I was tagged by the lovely @davidfors5 thank you so much  😭 😭 😭

1. fave character from each remake and why?

Skam Austin: Poonam Para. I know that she’s a side character and honestly i was close to saying Jo, Kelsey or Shay but she’s my fav. I think i just see a lot of myself in her and i like how she’s a completely new and different character. She’s funny and upfront and unique and I feel extremely understood and I hope we get to see more of her.

Skam France: Imane Bakhellal. Again i was really close to saying Yann or Lucas but i think just purely because of how much i can relate to Imane and understand her she’s my fav.

Druck: David Schreibner. While i definitely relate to Matteo the most and love Amira to no end, David is hands down my favourite. He’s such an icon and he especially makes me love Druck so much. I can’t really explain why he’s my favourite so much, this one is really more of like i feel it in my soul that he’s my favourite and that’s why.

Skam España: Joana Bianchi. I... I wanted to say Amira or Lucas because i love them so freaking much and this one was honestly the hardest for me to decide but it is Joana. I don’t know what it is but i just deeply care for her so much.

Skam NL: Liv Reijners. Although i really do love like all the NL characters. Liv i decided to pick because she can sing and i love her style and she’s strong and independent and i feel like she’s a really unique noora and i just. love everything about her. I can’t find a single fault  🙈

2. fave musical moment?

Skam: håper du har plass playing when the girls go to get Sana, i think we all cry every time and i still listen to that song to this day

Skam Austin: honestly… cloutie 4 lyfe go listen to clout from grandma’s closet on soundcloud i stg their talent… is unparalleled (honorary mention, when Megan’s upset and crying and goes to see Marlon and they play the fricking meme song and stop it at “run.” i die every time)

Skam France: what else could i say other than when Lucas played ‘i love you’ on the piano like chills lich rally chills luv (honorary mention how the music goes all soft the first time Lucas sees Eliott, again iconic)

Druck: this is hard like i kind of just wanna say whenever they’ve ever used a song it’s been absolutely perfect, i think i’ll say during the first kiss clip though when they go to hold their breath and the music with the water sound effects like aaaa ded

Skam España: the last clip when they go to kiss and ‘I Follow Rivers’ starts playing like... it’s just perfect like everything comes full circle and im CRYING

Skam NL: another remake that always picks perfect music, i think my fav is whenever Liv goes to the mic to sing like i love her singing voice so much

3. if you could make your own season, who would it be about and what would happen?

I have thought about this so much it’s almost funny lmao. There’s just so much potential with Skam and then if you factor in the remakes like... absolutely spoilt for choice omfg. I’d love a Jonas season because he’s great but i really dont know what it’d even be about, Mahdi is another character i’ve always felt immensely interested in and i would love to know more about him. In the middle of typing this i’ve come to a decision actually lmao. Two words- BALLOON. SQUAD. They are literally my favourite thing about og ever seriously and Elias is my favourite Skam character. So idk maybe a season about them? and maybe about their friend group and how they’re all drifting apart or brotherhood or like healthy male friendships where they are there for each other and shit or about Even becoming friends with them again or IDK. but i know i’d have loved a season centered on them and if i had a greater mind i’d be able to come up with a good plot for them too lmao.

4. rank the sanas ( I’m evil I know )

This is literally the worst question I’ve ever seen and yes you are evil

Sana, Amira TM, Amira N, Imane, Zoya, Esra, Imaan.

BUT THEY ARE ALL EQUALLY MY FAVOURITE 

5. fave season from each remake and why?

Skam Austin: Unpopular Opinion but i really loved season 1, however, I think i have to say season 2 because of how fucking well they developed all the characters like giving the cast input into the story was the best decision Skam Austin could’ve ever made. Also, Clout From Grandma’s Closet? like need i say more

Skam France: I only watched 3 and 4 and my fav is 3. Very good homage to OG with the story telling and made me absolutely fall in love with Lucas and Eliott. Like I went through the same motions as i did when i watched OG and it was nice to be reminded of that. Also liked the small changes they made like the Polaris thing that was iconic

Druck: SEASON 3. what an emotional fucking roller coaster. They had me hooked every single minute of the day and still do now. I love Matteo and how they changed the story up like im still pissed about the pacing kind of but honestly i loved season 3 and still rewatch it. the music was perfect, development of the characters, the softness. everything was just so good

Skam NL: As much as i love Liv I have to say season 1. it was goregously done, i loved the aesthetic and Isa is such a realistic and relatable character. Also her moments with Kes and Lucas and the moments with the girl squad, like it was just a really iconic start to an awesome series.

Skam España: I’ve only watched season 2 but i know even if i watched season 1 i would still say season 2 lmao. Honestly there is not a SINGLE thing they did wrong. like the story was perfect, the honour they did to og, how they switched the relationships up. it genuinely was just fucking perfect (except the whole panphobia thing. if that comment wasn’t said spain would have the best remake)

6. What’s your opinion on s2? what do you like and dislike the most? which remake made the best s2? (españa doesn’t count)

I am going to be truthful here and say that when i was first watching OG and watched season 2 I did like it but after growing up a bit and reflecting I now honestly really dont. like i’ve tried to avoid that season in remakes as much as i can (i’ve failed and the only noorhell i’ve not seen is frances one). I think what got me at first was the whole like layers thing to William. how there was more to him and also like the typical fanfic tropey moments between them. what i like about season 2 is the SA storyline, like that is an extremely important topic that needs to be talked about more so i like how it brought light to that and also how they show Noora handling the situation and how the girl squad are and i <3. What i dislike is how William uses Vilde and is so manipulative and ANNOYING omfg. Like i can’t explain how much his entitled rich ass frustrates me and how broken down Noora is by him.

7. what representation would you like to see in Skam (other than more wlw)?

Honestly i’d like to see more ethnic minorities tbh, especially like maybe some east asian people? I want skam to be the type of thing that no matter who you are you can see yourself represented in it and while the remakes and og do an alright job of it, i’d love to see more. i’ll say this this til the day i die- REPRESENTATION IS IMPORTANT

8. what country would you like to see a remake and why?

My biased ass is screaming Skam Scotland because like i would be able to relate to it so much and I’d love it with my entire soul but also just somewhere where the majority of the population isnt white. would be lovely for it to be in like India or Pakistan maybe so that I could personally relate to it but honestly anywhere with POC would be an absolute WIN for me. i suggest Skam Scotland where the girl and boy squad are south asians/east asians + black with the good ol’ token white friend! Hire me

9. fave head canon?

Honestly any (head)canon that says anyone is not cishet is like 👌 

10. sort characters into Hogwarts houses

I was going to do the characters from all the remakes when i realised... they’re all essentially the same each time I- anyways lmao

Hufflepuff -  Magnus, Even, Chris, Vilde, Mikael, Yousef, Linn

Slytherin - Sana, Isak

Gryffindor - Mahdi, Elias, Eva, Adam, Mutasim, Eskild

Ravenclaw - Jonas, Noora

This is mostly based off pure gut instinct idk

11. tell me your best crossover idea

How all the remakes seem to have the girl squads going on summer roads trips I kinda had this thought that maybe like the groups in each of the different remakes and og decide to go on a big friends holiday and everyone ends up in the same place and they all meet. none of the isaks really get along with each other, all the evens of course become best friends on the spot etc etc. i just want everyone to automatically become best friends im not good at coming up with ideas for these sorts of things sorry lmao

~

For my 11 questions:

Which remake/og sqaud do you think you would personally fit into the most?

What is your favourite remake and why?

What is objectively the best remake and why?

Opinions on each of the girl squads?

Favourite hairstyle out of all the remakes? (this includes any hijab styles of the Sanas)

Who do you think from og/remakes would have a youtube channel and what would they post about? (not including hei briskeby or lucas rubio’s yt channel)

Pick someone you think is underappreciated from og/remakes and explain why you think they should be appreciated more

Favourite outfit/clothing item?

Which character do you think is most similar to you?

Do you like the Eva season (season 1)?

Insert your own question that you’d like to answer!

[3416]

rank the s3’s 😳😳

the season threes... oh boy okay, i’m gonna rank by the way i like the stories themselves and try to also mesh how much i like the couples (i’m also gonna operate assuming u just mean isak seasons so season twos for italia and espana)

1. wtfock bc i’m a sucker for romance and don’t think there’s an evak with more chemistry than the two of them ngl flkjsdklfd the story had itss faults and its extreme ups and downs, but like....... the driving force is literally just the way robbe and sander would die to be together like fldksf what kind of romantic shit, that’s what i like to see and i found the whole thing pretty gripping and emotionally engaging at all times

2. druck bc they did something really special and wonderful with david and matteo and it felt so down to earth and gentle and natural with them, idk i loved that season. it puts me in a mellow mood to this day to even THINK about it, ngl, but i love most everything about it

3. og bc... i mean, cmon. it was such a new and inventive way to tell that story and laid the groundwork for the remakes and like...... there is something about the way the og is made... the earnestness and the raw quality of the whole thing, like it felt so real when it was good and when it was bad that. it’s gotta be up there.

4./5. españa and france flip flip for this spot. france used to be higher bc max and axel are talented together for sure and s3 has a few key scenes that kill me but it’s hard to look at elu without the context of the next seasons and i think i needed some space to see that.. idk if it’s something i love as much as i used to. elu were special to me there for a while, but it’s hard to remember why now. as for crisana, i really think they’re the cutest pair ever, but the way that story was told drove me just a lil up the wall. it was SO back and forth and the way cris as a character was handled jsutjklfsd kinda.. idk. it had my head spinning, and i feel like i didn’t reap the rewards of their reunions as much bc it felt like every five second they were on good terms and then on bad but maybe i need a rewatch soon. ik that’s kind of the evak season way but espana took it a step more frenzied it felt like, sometimes hard to get through. 

6. italia bc... do i even need to talk about it. i hardly made it through that season honestly. nico and martino have the least amount of chemistry of all these couples and their story was practically dead on with og... no flavor....... normally i jump at the chance to live inside the isaks head but when i tell u it took me FOREVER to get through skam italia’s 40 min first ep of the season.. im not lying lol. i didn’t hate it .. it was just so meh compared to literally every other version.

*** i just know if shay would’ve had a season it would’ve been on the top half and if lucas vdh got a season, it probably would have been chillin at the bottom with italia based on the way i think of their individual remakes and the characters themselves ***

[shaydixons]

I dont even like skam france that much tbh but putting french Lucas as "the worst isak" ? I would rather die

right???? he’s literally so good
