Lucas and Dillon are simultaneously best friends and enemies with a requited crush, who are constantly in a missed connection and somehow forbidden lovers due to a third party creeper.

JONATHAN BAILEY as JACK MADDOX Heartstopper Season 3 | October 2024

#tf??? #had to look up his role and THAT is exciting #jack maddox #jonathan bailey #heartstopper

[sageandred]

Some minor things I'm thinking about/predictions for season 3~

-some more (pretty unedited) things I think could happen + predictions I don't necessarily hope to happen; + talking out some frustrations I personally had (if u don't want to read anything partially negative)

Missy & Amerie friendship. It would be good to expand to some less visited friendships. We got a hint of Amerie & Missy once again and I could see them talking even more nxt szn.

Sasha and Quinni are going to be working together nxt szn, and I can already see how the writers might try to rekindle something, but I don't want that, obviously. I could see them making Sasha develop feelings again only for Quinni to turn her down or it could be an opportunity for Sasha to actually apologize after some reflection as they continue to go their separate ways romantically.

Ant has to find out Harper also made the map, right? (that's the direction it's heading in??)

I don't care either way, but if Rowan wasn't just a 1 season and done type of character, I could see them trying to explore a mental health storyline, and separate from that make him more likeable/building friendships with anyone but Amerie.

Critiques of the Season/What I Hope Going Forward

They really missed some opportunities with Harper. It's totally valid for 2 childhood besties to grow apart in some ways and come back with an even greater and more mature connection. Instead, they just had Darren and Quinni adopt her into the group when I wish they would've spent a season of her developing her own friendships and building up her relationships that will be beneficial going forward.

which brings me to my points: I want Harper and Amerie to spend some time apart next season. I don't want it to be dramatic and I don't want them to have a fallout. They can actually be friends without being attached at the hip, but I don't want the s1 trio to be disrupted when I think that relationship is very special (sorry if this sounds harsh), and feels more organic than Harper's outside of the one that's developing with Cash.

Speaking of relationships: Ant & Harper feels underdeveloped to me. They could be a great couple. I wish they spent more time this season giving them individual arcs, but I think next season they kind of need to go through something dramatic to have the kind of break-through I'm wanting from their characters. They're kind of boring to me rn (I'm so sorry Harthony fans). They could end up together or not; I'm just not sold on their story yet.

New couples-I like the development stage of new couples/couples you don't expect. Give Quinni a gf, ofc. Switch up some of the dynamics. Relationships can be a means to another end, and it doesn't have to = the previous being bad. I don't want a love triangle, though; let them grow without the drama.

They could show the journey of Missy dealing with a toxic man, or they could show Spider/Missy grow together (I really don't care); I just want development for both of them individually and their own separate arcs regardless (especially Missy-he did have his own large arc this season). I actually think it would be cool to show the slow effects of how things add up and trauma causing some unhealthy behaviors with Spider (it doesn't have to make him bad; he's like 18 and anyone could grow from a failed high school relationship/become a really great person, but I just don't feel awe when I see their scenes...personally).

I didn't add this point with them on my other post, but I kind of want Darren and Cash to each have new romances/flings. I know there is love there, but I think they need to find themselves independent of one another. Their relationship very much feels like they grew up together and prematurely decided they belong together what with Cash's long secret crush (which is fine, but..); it is absolutely cute, though their incompatibility and continuous communication problems need to be explored/they need to mature.

Heartbreak High 1.07 The Sheriff | 2.08 Boys Don't Cry

I fucking love her, okay?

Some Positives of Heartbreak High S2 + Hopes for Possible S3

The camping episode was the best-group coming together for chaotic and hilarious moments ever-the high crawl, Malakai hallucinating, Ant + tree, Darren's mocking of Rowan

Amerie's abortion-was portrayed in a way I don't think is seen often, and wasn't what I was expecting when she was late

Quinni's storyline-She had some powerful lines; I loved her owning her truth and being a bad b*tch when ignoring Darren and friends, because she was in the right.

I want to see more of Quinni's self discovery journey.

I'd like to explore more with Darren and Cash. I do think it's great to see 2 characters who are less visible in media be in a full-on relationship; I like both of those characters individually though I'd have liked to explore more in depth the context of how their relationship works, regardless of whether they stay together or not.

I like that they showed Malakai explore his bisexuality.

Malakai come home! Or at least do a time jump to show Amerie and Malakai reuniting. They're gonna be that deep-seated "what could've been" type love, I can feel it; they've been through so much now; I think they need to grow, but a lot has shaped them while they were involved with each other that I think they are gonna have a tough time moving on from it when it's all unfinished business.

It doesn't have to be a diversity tick, but can they have more queer couples? It did feel lacking in some way after last season. If they never added more queer ships outside of what we had, hypothetically it would be fine, but we've missed some pieces and development as the show's progressed (we've only heard abt some couples from the map; also what is Ant's sexuality?)

the Cash and Harper scenes; I liked that Harper didn't blame Cash, but also didn't try to make him feel better about the situation (that was a good scene).

They actually shocked me with Bird Psycho; they had me until the 2nd half of the szn, which seems uncommon now in shows so props there and the extra twist was a good one.

More parents-it felt lacking this season

Another theme-type/campy episode-they showed a few different elements with this in this season, but I'd like to see another whole focussed episode like the camping; like some wildly out there event or special day that's mandated

Wondering what will happen with school now that theirs burned to the ground...Kind of want them all split up at the beginning of the szn for like an episode-see how that changes them & doing their own thing

#their friendship is so sweet #this is such a frankie focussed moment #but also he says it wouldn't have been right> #does he realize how vulnerable he was w/app guy or is this still carter's brainwashing? #frankie osborne #lucas hay #hollyoaks

For Lone Star:

1x02-is a good introductory

2x02-volcanic eruption ep + shock death of [redacted]

maybe 2x12-the conclusion to the arsonist sl (you find out the answer to the mystery), and [spoiler] dies, so maybe not(?)

3x04-one of the ice storm episodes; Grace has her baby, TK wakes up in the hospital

Here's a question:If you wanted to introduce a person to 911 or 911 lone star,to make them intrested,which episodes would you show them?

#i feel like these get tricky becuz obv there will be missing details with skipping full eps #but they are so fun!! #911 lone star

[sageandred]

btw Heartbreak High personally attacked me and only me when his mom said Spider doesn't have a queer bone in his body

#i'm joking hehehe i'm serious #truthfully i'm anti spider white #but also #bug boys #truthers unite! #spider x ant #heartbreak high #spider white #spencer white #anthony vaughn #ant vaughn

[sageandred]

The Good for you, you watch [fill in the blank show] for the plot; I don't argument, except it's I studied all the scenes from [insert new ship hyperfixation], then went back and watched the show for the plot argument

#911 abc #911 #911 lone star #911 ls #tarlos #buddie #hannibal #hannigram

For anyone who ever wanted to look at this scene without the credits obstructing their view.

(As such, I've also omitted dialogue text from the gifs.)

imagining Malakai checking Sydney news just for the fuck of it one day

imagining him seeing that his fucking school burnt down the very night he left

imagining him panicking and calling as many of his friends as he can, and they all pick up except for Amerie

(because Amerie is always busy, of fucking course she is)

imagining him literally flying back just to see her because he’s heard from everyone that she’s okay but he can’t believe it unless he sees her himself

imagining the relief he felt seeing her in person

imagining it disappearing when he learns she didn’t read the letter

imagining him closing off because of it, because he’s him and of course he does, and almost going back home before a tearful reunion

MANIFESTING for SEASON FUCKING THREE ALREADY

I just want Missy to get a storyline that she is the centre of and doesn't involve her just being Sasha's sidekick/ex or rehabilitating Spider.
