For copyright reasons, full-length reactions don't include the show or movie footage so you'll need to have your own copy to watch along with me. Ideally, you'll need two screens or two browser windows. One for the reaction, and the other for the show you're watching. Using your mobile is also viable to watch one of them. 

As many different streaming services in different countries often play trailers or recaps before the show starts, the easiest way I've found to sync up footage is to find the first frame of the episode, generally right after the opening credits finish on your own copy (unless of course, the show has a cold open), then pause it. Don't worry, I show you the frame to look for at the beginning of each full-length reaction! Next, play the reaction and you'll see a countdown timer at the end of the intro and when the show is about to start. Press "play" on your copy when the timer reaches 0:00. 

A small (but muted) portion of the show will stay on the screen to allow you to properly sync up your copy if you need to adjust it. The easiest way to eliminate any small discrepancies between the two is to rapidly pause and unpause the video that's ahead until both are running simultaneously.

Yay!! favorite day of the week. I knew you would enjoy this one. I have a "daughter" friend that I call my baby penguin after Lito's mom calling him that. The first time I saw that I was so worried it was going to go bad but she is so sweet and he needed that. I also adore Hernando talking to his class after the pictures are leaked. He handled that so amazingly well. And Dani taking them to her house to protect them after they protected her. I just love the protection they show for each other. I also love the reaction Bug gives when Nomi and Amanita ask him to join them for Christmas. It makes me cry every time. I love so many characters and the people close to them as well as characters you haven't even met yet. One of whom is one of my favorite characters of the show. You will meet them soon. This episode is in some ways the turning point of the show from the first season of figuring things out and seeing what they could do with it and the second season of finishing plot lines and resolving things. Will's heroin makes everyone uncomfortable. Its understandable to keep Whispers out but that doesn't make it easier. I adore the love you have for this show and these people. I love season 2 even more than season 1 and so I look forward to watching you experience it. See you next week!

This is truly my favourite show ever. I love watching new peoe react to it and get slowly attached to all the characters. I’ve never been able to pick a favourite out of the 8. My favourite side characters are Jela, Capheus’ best friend and Bug. The moment where he looks like a lost puppy when the girls ask him to come along to Christmas sold me on his character. He’s just a lonely socially awkward guy. I’m actually glad they included him deadnaming Nomi a couple of times in the beginning too. It’s realistic, and he immediately corrects himself so you can see it wasn’t in ill intent. If you’re close to someone, you say their name almost by reflex. I headcannon Bug as autistic like myself. When one of my close friends transitioned, I deadnamed him a couple times and felt extremely embarrassed and bad, but he reassured me it was ok, especially if you correct yourself or apologize after. It takes a bit of time to unlearn someone’s old name and there’s nothing wrong with that! I could luckily get used to his new name quite quickly because he had picked it from a book we loved reading together as kids. 🥰

I am really bad at finishing shows that make me super emotional so I actually never finished the last few episodes of season 2. But rewatching this with you has made me remember how much this show impacted me and how much I love every single character, even the non sense8s. I joined your patron because I love your reactions to this show but also because I think it will finally make me finish this show. I'm so excited to join you on this journey to the end x

You know, I was thinking about this the other day. Nomi's mother deadnames her in the first couple of episodes of season 1 and I wonder if they included Bug doing the same to show how the intent behind it (or lack of) makes the difference. Like you said, Bug's was a reflex thing, an honest mistake that he quickly corrected. Her mother was doing it out of spite.

When you get to the final episode, twelve, you watch the extra video during the credits. It is amazing. Not to mention Clean Bandit & Jess Glenn's song, one of my favorites. I love the sound track from this series.
