This has actually always been one of the aspects of the show that has most confused me. Noora and Eva (and later Isak) all have relationships with their families that almost feel too hands-off? Of course, this type of situation does exist but I do feel that with Noora, for example, in the US two parents who "don't love" their high school age daughter, still wouldn't leave her to sublet an apartment with random adults. William and Eva both seem to always have an empty apartment, which maybe feels a little more realistic but also convenient. I think until Sana's season, it was easier for the show to remove the focus from the parental relationships and make it more about pure teenage stuff. But it does sometimes take me out of the show a bit because Noora specifically is living SUCH an adult style life that it makes me forget that she's 16? 17?
How are you feeling about SKAM's representation of family life so far? Do the familial relationships you've seen or you've heard reference to feel realistic or no?
Hi!!! I basically just discovered your blog five minutes ago and I love it so much omg. I saw that you've listened to 36 Questions which got me super excited cause I started listening to it today and it's so good! I love podcasts and musicals so this really reached peak level for me haha, and adding Jonathan Groff is like a dream come true. I have no one to talk to about it, so I was wondering, what were your thoughts on it? Sorry for bugging you out of the blue! I hope you have a lovely day <3
Hey! Thanks! Honestly 36 questions is by far my favorite podcast and It's so perfect and for me the more I think about it, the more layered and wonderful it is. I really like the character of Jase, and I think Jonathan is perfect as him. I won't spoil anything just in case you haven't finished it but, I'm not the biggest fan of Natalie/Judith because I empathize more with Jase. I think it's beautifuly done and they are both amazing singers. I'm happy you found it and are enjoying it! Thanks for the message!
I think I used to believe that this season was in some way more authentic than the classic bad boy trope but rewatching it, it feels really conventional. I think in particular Noora's "activism" or like moralistic assertion of her superiority over William feels really forced, whereas William's "good side" feels equally as contrived. I also think the way that the Noora sees Eva this season, as a party girl with delusions about Jonas, also just makes me sad! But there is, of course, a chemistry between them and I'm interested to see what my new thoughts will be once shit goes down. Episode 4 for the absolute win btw.
What seems to differentiate Noora & William from the classic stereotypical bad-boy-gets-the-girl-who-hates-him-to-fall-in-love-with-him trope? Or do you not think their story so far is at all different from this trope?
season 5 is going to be a joint season for the school nurse and basille. speaking it into existence.
