Promo ad for David Bowie’s Young Americans LP - 1975.

[one-time-i-dreamt]

was completely obsessed with this show when I was like, 10???

accidentally caught reruns of it one summer and got hooked when I found out it was a spinoff to Dawson's Creek

I adored the pairing of Jake and Hamilton so much

too bad the show was cancelled after 1 season

Jake enrolled in an all boys' school secretly, pretending to be a male student and their main plotline is the two of them falling in love and Hamilton being very confused about his sexuality due to it

I still remember the scene when they had a confrontation and admitted their love to one another and Hamilton being like, I know your secret (Jake likes him, so he was referring to that), we're gay

and Jake being like, no, my secret is actually that I am a girl but go off, let me hear more about that

I just really love that Hamilton accepted that he liked Jake and came to terms with his sexuality being more fluid than he previously thought, regardless of the fact Jake was a girl in disguise

Katherine Moennig and Ian Somerhalder had really great working chemistry together

Okay, because I feel like my 911 peeps are of an age to appreciate this, I feel the need to share that plotting this fic with @cecilyv has devolved into a conversation about Young Americans.

@cecilyv 8 episodes in 2000 and its like, hello, these are the people you're going to find hot for the next 20 years NO ONe KNOW STHE IMPACT @liminalmemories21 IT WAS SO INEXPLICABLY BAD but the TWOP reviews were amazing and the way Katherine Moenig wore a bra under the boy disguise, in case we forgot she was a girl

The fact that this genuinely terrible show does not (a) an oral history, and (b) does not exist on DVD is honestly a tragedy.
