1:17:21 So, here's the thing. Black is the Darkling's color. In the book they show you how big a deal it is that Alina was offered HIS color day one, AND THEN SHE TURNED HIM DOWN to wear Summoner Blue. This is the first time she is wearing a black version of the kefta. She is accepting that they are the same kind of Grisha. He is reacting to her unspoken message, not just wearing a kefta in general. This is absolutely one of my favorite reactions from anyone on any show! Can't wait for the season 2 reactions!
Season 2 completely blows the first one out of the water, if you ask me. Incredible performances, amazing world building, plot twist after plot twist, intensely romantic moments ( *cough cough* kanej *cough* ) , beautiful set design and costumes and a LOT more conflict. The characters' personalities are also a lot more loyal to what they were originally meant to be so I'm excited to see how you guys like it in comparison to the first season! I feel like it be summarized in a single sentence from the first Six of Crows book; 'Kaz Brekker was gone, and Dirtyhands had come to see the rough work done.' Can't wait!
I expected more from it, it kind of disappointed me to be honest (my opinion.) It felt very rushed since they crammed so much into just one season. Still, worth a watch.
The Crows are the best characters. I love them. You really should consider reading the books tho, the Crows are not in the first shadow and bone book unfortunately but they have their own book series. Unfortunately Genya is not a healer, she changes physical appearance, she is a Tailor, not a Healer. Also they revealed earlier that the stronger the Grisha the longer they live, so the Darkling has been alive for hundreds of years and he believes because Alina is as strong as him, maybe stronger that it wont matter, she will live for much longer than Mal will and that she will eventually realize that he is the only one who can match with her power.
1:10:14 when she says “I want you too be careful…(of) powerful men.” Or in the books, “the king loves beauty…in the kings court, appearances are everything.” (Pg.95) ‘“besides, you don’t want to attract too much attention from the king.” Her voice was light, but I saw a shadow pass over her features…’ (pg.98) “But the king is…well, you’ll see what the king is.” “brilliant!” The king shouted. “a miracle!… took my hand in his own, raised it to his wet lips. “ my dear girl,” he said. “ my dear, dear girl.” And I thought of what Genya had said about the kings attention and felt my skin crawl…” (pg. 106) This is all somewhat subtly implying to, what would later be revealed in season two of the show, that the king is kind of a pervert, along with other choice words.
Something I wish they showed in the show was inej had anxiety and before any job or when she got anxious she named all her knives and repeated the names just a small detail I would have loved to
Oh my god you both killed me on this one with all your references. Officially subscribed now. Hahaha! I feel you Benji, bad boys/men always get me too darn it so my friends easily know who the bad guy or serial killer is in the end.
Yo, my doodz ya'll are hilarious! Randomly got the algorithm to show the thumbnail for this one and im so glad they got it right. Don't look like typical nerds but ya'll def know your pop & nerd culture subject matter. And the jokes just hit and come outta nowhere. For example: 1:55:46 🤣🤣🤣 Roasted but all in good fun😂 Anwyho, I have been rolllllllin' as I go through this reaction, having to start and stop it the past day due to 'stuff', and it has not let up. Lookin' forward to the season 2 mashup and already got it queued up. Subscribed to ya'll as well, I'm enjoyin' what I'm seein' fam! 🤙🏽
I forgot benji sat on the other side 😂😂😍😍😍 can’t wait for s2 ❤make sure you guys had enough time to detox the last of us an that you’re mentally ok … especially rizzo
Love your reactions ! ♡ Just a little reminder tho, it was a inspired by the Russian Empire ( a pretty stereotypical one😅) more than the Soviet Union !
My first time discorvering ur channel and i love it so far! i actually prefer when people watch a show with no prior knowledge to it like if they didn't read the books or watch the trailers it makes it more entertaining to see their reactions! I can't wait to see your season 2 reactions
I really hope your merch is available for international popstars tho 🥺 As for season 2, I won't give you my opinion, cause I don't want to affect yours when you watch it, but I am super curious to know what you think. They leaned heavily on the Six of Crows duology this season, and I loved it, and I'm just really hoping for a Crows spin-off
OMG, you guys are wonderful! I just found you two... this is so splendid and so much fun!!! Ty Ty Darlings... 💋 ♥ .. ok, i am subscribing :P Lovelies, i would LOVE to watch you guys do 'the boys' .. um... ok that didnt sound right.. but please.. take this ride darlings!! You are so ridiculous, and so wonderful!! I am so happy i found you!! ... but um... He is right about your taste in bad boys.. you just dont do low-rent is why this villain didnt spark you >.>
I just love sitting here working on my resin art listening to Rizzo sing a song about his nipples that had the power to make me scream so loud and flinch so hard I pushed the flowers off the counter.. 😶😂 worth it tho. 😂
@@PinkPopcast That was what I was hoping for, but they just killed it and did that gross thing with the antlers in the collarbone. I'd love to move away from "only death can pay for life" (where do babies come from, then?) and what is essentially a type of blood magic in fantasy as a default setting. I mean, it makes for angst, I guess, but you always have angst from other things. I don't want to say people shouldn't ship problematic couples, but I do find it funny when people are like, "The darkling didn't kiss Alina until he had consent" but ignore how he mutilated her by putting those antlers in her without her consent. Sorry for long comment!
20:50 in inglorious bastards i think it was the way he counted with his fingers was culturally different. it's kinda of like an accent or something you pick up.
honestly, the show is better than the book to me. i only read the first book and really disliked it, it was quite slow-paced and the language was overly confusing for no reason. The show was definitely easier to follow overall.
i hope the show is still good for u! as a book reader it went very down hill. too much plot shoved into 1 season. no time for the characters to be anything but one dimensional versions of themselves from the books. it genuinely makes me sad you guys will never know how funny kaz is!
literally the only people who dislike s2 so much are book readers that expected a page by page copy of the books even though that would be unrealistic and we knew from the start that this show wouldn't be it. you failed your own expectations. it's an overall fun show for anyone else. it's okay to be disappointed but please just allow yourself to also have fun.
@@evelynvas3800 i don’t agree. S1 took a lot of liberties, but i still loved it because it was mostly done well. I’m glad lots of fans enjoyed s2, but i think it was weak and plenty of ppl i know who haven’t read the books at all didn’t like it either despite enjoying the first season.
@@evelynvas3800 not true at all. i’ve talked to several people who haven’t read the books and feel the same way. idc if they follow the plots. the show it’s self is just bad. literally 0 character time. and it just feels like a bunch of scenes put together. rather than an actual show.
Darkling: Welcome home, Miss Starkov.
RUclips subtitles: welcome home miss taco

Did I already watch your season 1 reaction? Yes. Will I watch this re-upload? Yes. Can’t wait for your season 2 reaction. :)

I lovedddd season 2 sm
Q
Popstars- it’s probably an overall recap/edit of their old videos to hype us up/remind us where we left off for their S2 commentary! 😄
🙂
It is. Like they did with Bridgerton.
The Crows are the best characters. I love them.
You really should consider reading the books tho, the Crows are not in the first shadow and bone book unfortunately but they have their own book series.
Unfortunately Genya is not a healer, she changes physical appearance, she is a Tailor, not a Healer.
Also they revealed earlier that the stronger the Grisha the longer they live, so the Darkling has been alive for hundreds of years and he believes because Alina is as strong as him, maybe stronger that it wont matter, she will live for much longer than Mal will and that she will eventually realize that he is the only one who can match with her power.
season two is a fast paced, fanfic fever dream and i loved EVERY second of it
Yesss season 2 comingggg! I personally found it even better than season 1, you will have a lot to do in this season, hope you enjoy!
Rizzo just single handedly summed up season 2 plot in the last episode 😂😂😂
😂
i had the pause the video and come to the comments bc there’s no way HAHAHAH that was great
1:10:14 when she says “I want you too be careful…(of) powerful men.”
Or in the books, “the king loves beauty…in the kings court, appearances are everything.” (Pg.95)
‘“besides, you don’t want to attract too much attention from the king.” Her voice was light, but I saw a shadow pass over her features…’ (pg.98)
“But the king is…well, you’ll see what the king is.”
“brilliant!” The king shouted. “a miracle!… took my hand in his own, raised it to his wet lips. “ my dear girl,” he said. “ my dear, dear girl.” And I thought of what Genya had said about the kings attention and felt my skin crawl…” (pg. 106)
This is all somewhat subtly implying to, what would later be revealed in season two of the show, that the king is kind of a pervert, along with other choice words.
I wasn't a part of popcast family in 2021, so i am very happy i can watch this right now. Looking forward to season 2
❤️❤️
Something I wish they showed in the show was inej had anxiety and before any job or when she got anxious she named all her knives and repeated the names just a small detail I would have loved to
THANK YOU SO MUCH for doing ALL these episodes. I probably would've NEVER watched this show if it wasn't for you guys. 👍💖😀😂
Can´t wait for you reacting to season 2.
Thank you to both of you for making me crack a smile and laugh in the midst of one of the worst anxiety attacks of my life ❤ Truly appreciate it.
Glad we could make you smile 😊
your shadow and bone reactions are how I found you guys! I can't wait to see what you think of season two!
Can’t wait for your S2 reaction, Ali think it was so much better! So 3xciteddd
Can't wait for you guys to meet Wylan in S2!!
Yessss I love having these reactions in just one video. It's a nice recap for what's next !
LMAO the Inej is Batman agenda was taking me out 😭😭 this video was so fun!
Oh my god you both killed me on this one with all your references. Officially subscribed now. Hahaha! I feel you Benji, bad boys/men always get me too darn it so my friends easily know who the bad guy or serial killer is in the end.

Kind of obsessed with Jesper ngl
“I keep a hammer by my bed”
Just letting that go by is probably the right move.
Bruhhhh, the editing these guys are doing for these videos is really good lol!
crazy how your SAB reactions are how I found this channel ❤ can’t wait for s2 commentary :)
Didn't they already watch this? Or amni dumb😭
they did! they're probably reminding us where we left off and hyping us up for their s2 commentary!
Maybe this is a full length video of all of their reactions. They did one for their Bridgeton reactions 😊
Omg I thought this was a season 2 upload. 🫣 That’s what I get for not paying attention
The title says reUpload, I could’ve sworn I saw them react to this already lol but I’m down to rewatch !
Your editing has me rolling on the floor giggling my ass off. Omg it's just so fucking funny 😭😭
🙌🙌😆
Yes!! Season 2 was amazing!!!

Day one of begging on hands and knees for you two to react to dead boy detectives
Hahaha both of you are fall in love with and ship all the characters lol
if benji doesn't fall in love with kaz in episode 4, I won't know what to say.

AAAAAAA CAN;T WAIT FOR SEASON 2
Well i think we watched this but I can’t wait the second season now😅

In Season 2: Wylan has all my love
