First episode of a new series!!! This is my first Swedish show and it looks really interesting. The main pairing is SO CUTE. Also sorry for calling Wilhelm William 🥲 I promise to try to get it right next time.

no need to apologize for the names! Most reactors butcher them - we cannot not be Americans 😅. In my head, I usually just call Wilhelm (sounds like, “VEEL’ helm”), the shorter nickname, “VEE-leh”, like how Simon says it at the end of the episode, when he’s imitating August. And “Simon”, like, “SEE-moan”, although interestingly, when the actors talk to American or English speaking outlets for media stuff, Omar, the actor playing Simon, will pronounce it the American way, SY-mun. (If he’s speaking to Swedish or Spanish speaking folks, he’ll pronounce it like SEE-moan).

@16:39. I think most “non-resident” students cannot afford to board there, but I think (?) the school part itself (education only) they don’t need to pay for in Sweden (like we would in the U.S.), but all the other components of life there, you do. It’s an obvious class thing if you get bussed in for school like they do, but I think there are stark class issues anyway that other kids would be aware of (e.g., their clothes and stuff).

@27:31. “mind your business, b*tch” - oh if only - that could be the theme song for August

girl 😂 you’re reaction to the ending was so funny 😭. Get used to that. / Jacob Tierney who did heated rivalry is a huge fan of this show, and had Connor & Hudson watch it as a model for the kind of yearning he was envisioning 🧡 (and some folks think he’ll model the the storytelling design of HR after this - 3 seasons of 6 episodes).
