Me, @ all the SKAM formats rn:

[annadriesen2121]

Sander and Robbe - SKAM Wtfock S3 🇧🇪

Henry and Alex  - RWRB ❤🤍💙

I Hold you in my hands

Feel you with my lips

Breathe you in

And taste your desire

[gunsatthaphan]

Well in this case, I was referring to 🇧🇪. (Mainly for the K*to thing.)

But ofc 🥖 is a genre of hyperbole in itself. 🇩🇪 did so amazing then screwed it up at the very last bit. The jury’s still out on 🇪🇸 (but the s is silent). It wasn’t very much involved in SKAM 🍕, so I can’t say a whole lot about that. I think we can forget about that one time 🇺🇸 also wanted to join the party. And there was SKAM 🇳🇱, alas, the one that was over before it had properly started. 🥲 (curtesy of Dutch public broadcasting management 😤 -> hint: it’s a mess)

And last but definitely not least: there’s the og, the mothership, SKAM 🇳🇴. No words, chef’s kiss, a masterpiece. (but even that one had its quirks)

That all being said: I for one cannot wait until Asian countries finally pick up on this brilliant (ahem 🤫) format! 🙃 🇰🇷🇹🇭🇯🇵🇹🇼🇻🇳🇵🇭

~ anonchor ⚓️

thank you for clearing that up anon lol

I only saw season 3 of skam belgium but I do remember there was some controversy around the following seasons. good thing I dropped it lol.

skam france remains my favorite remake, I just loved the cinematography and the cast; I liked it the the most out of all, even though it was the one that felt the least like the original lol. but what can I say. I haven't seen seasons 7-10 yet though.

spain, netherlands and usa are the ones I have not seen at all. I heard the american one is trash and I can imagine why so I won't touch that one lmao. I might watch the other 2 at some point though.

an asian adaption would be very interesting. I'm voting for taiwan because I feel like they're the only ones who can get this format right lmao. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[popculturefein]

Ranking Skam remakes based off of ✨issues✨ I had with them part 2.

Lmao like everyone hated when I did this like 2 years ago so here’s the updated version.

Ps. This is in no way shape or form meant to offend anyone or anything because at the end of the day it's just my opinion and it really isn’t that relevant. So if you think I have no idea what I’m talking abt, it is what it is.

I was going to finish this like 4 months ago, but I completely forgot it existed and I’m terribly lazy. Anyways…I love italia. Sorry.

7. Skam France 🇫🇷

Um where do I start? I feel like personally the show fell off around the 5th season and has just been unsuccessfully trying to regain that ✨je ne sais quoi✨that it used to have.

The character writing was also extremely inconsistent and I’ve never shyed away from calling out the writing for drastically changing characters to fit the current storyline.

Imane’s character was extremely underdeveloped in my opinion and her season felt more of an obligation than it did a desired project. There are so many sides to being Muslim in France nowadays and they opted out on giving a quite generic view on that.

All in all this show still feels very forced. The new generation especially. They’ve darkened the show a lot which I’m not opposed to, but they don’t always execute it very well.

6. Austin 🇺🇸

The amount of hate I got the first time around for criticizing the show…eek.

The show in my opinion, maybe it was just me but it felt awkward. And not in a cute charming way like the OG, but in a it felt weird to watch way. Maybe it’s cuz I’m used to typical American shows and this one was an American show trying a European narrative but still making it American. I don’t know.

The chemistry was atrocious. I’m really sorry. But Grace and Daniel were cute but their chemistry was kind of weak. Not to mention the girl squad? They sometimes hardly felt like “best friends” at all, but I wanna give props to Jo for being the glue of the group.

Zoya was boring. There was no depth to her character. I won’t blame the acting because I feel like the actress did what she was told to do. Her character just felt out of place. She came off colder than Sana and we never got a chance to see her grow all that much.

I really didn’t like Kacey. I know that’s the point, but the other Vilde remakes were all bearable, some of them are even my favourite characters but Kacey?? Gosh no.

Last point but how dare they cancel it before Shay’s season? She would’ve been the first wlw main representation but that fell through and instead we got Cris from Espana (no tea no shade, I would’ve just liked seeing a fellow gay black woman become a main)

5. Wtfock 🇧🇪

Now let me tell you something, it hurts putting Wtfock here but I have to. She’s my favourite remake but she’s also very iffy.

Kato. I won’t even elaborate because you ALL already know.

The little racist comments in the show that would go unpunished or not talked about unless Yasmina stood up for pocs??

Zoë as much as I loved her, was really annoying towards the end. She was constantly contradicting her earlier unchanging morals. The writers made her somewhat unlikeable tbh.

JANA???? Where did she go?? Why was she replaced by a literal racist??

The whole “Blonde Ambition” name sounds like something my black ass would steer clear of and yet people couldn’t fathom how Yasmina was very uncomfortable around them??

Yasmina’s entire season irritated me because instead of focusing on the actual Islamophobia present they decided Yasmina’s the one being sensitive and she has to forgive her very ignorant white friends.

Moyo went from being the most disliked character, to a somewhat decent guy and then to the victim of a toxic toxic relationship, to an idiot, and then back to one of the most disliked characters simply because the writers f*cked up really bad.

And I’ll die on the hill that if anything season 4 should’ve been about Noor.

Fuck Britt. Like truly. How is she the antagonist in three separate seasons and people still wanted to be her friend?? En tout cas c’est pas mon problème 🙄

4. Skam NL 🇳🇱

Ok hear me out, this remake was crazy unique and super aesthetically pleasing but take away all the jazz and it’s quite plain.

There are major plot holes that to this day I can’t wrap my head around. Like where did Jaden come from? No one explained what happened to Imaan? Though I love her, why add Ezra? It felt very weird to replace her like that.

Kes man you’re gorgeous but you’re an absolute fucking idiot. Isa deserved better from the get go.

Noah is such a random character, like I get it, but I don’t. He’s dreamy and artsy and witty but what else??? He was so bland it made him and Liv’s relationship fall short for me personally.

I don’t know, at the end of the day, this remake is like that super cute girl that’s always really social over text but when you first start talking in person she’s really really dry and it just kills the mood for you.

3. España 🇪🇸

Personally, it’s not my favourite but I can’t say it wasn’t one of the better executed remakes.

I don’t necessarily have anything bad to say except for maybe the dragging out of the Nora and Alejandro storyline. I completely understand why they changed Nora’s season but most skam fans love the second season because it highlights their relationship but instead we got breadcrumbs and then bam they were together and then they weren’t? I do like the change but I still feel like because of how long it took, it wasn’t as impactful. But again, Nora’s season was baller.

2. Druck 🇩🇪

The fandom is a very interesting place. Very “we want pocs, we want lgbtq+ rep” which I love but guys, don’t hate on a character cuz they’re straight and white. Like I get Mailin is annoying like 90% of the time but she’s a very realistic character and changing her to be perfect wouldnt make any sense.

Constantin?? He’s like the toxic make equivalent to Britt and no, I don’t want to hear any Constantin apologists cuz he’s honestly so rude and condescending and just an all around mean person and I can’t fathom why people constantly forgive him? Like I understand people go through stuff, but he’s just rude to almost everyone and says such stupid stuff.

Though I love Sascha, Isi was a horrible friend to him and they should’ve had to deal with those consequences longer because they put Sascha through a lot and he deserves better. Also, the season was super rushed and so we never really got to see the depths of their relationships.

Mia and Alex had amazing chemistry but gosh those kisses were hard to watch. They had zero chemistry when it came to romantic scenes but they were amazing to watch when they were just being themselves, talking and bantering.

The music is over the top. Like why is there Doja Cat in almost every episode and what happened to the songs that correlated to the plot?? I get the whole staying current thing but pls whyyyyy?

[nancyskam]

Just had the best idea ever :

Imagine having a movie or a serie with some of the best actors/actresses from Skam and its remakes 🤯😍

I mean, imagine a huge crossover with Tarjei Sandvik Moe 🇳🇴, Willem De Schryver 🇧🇪, Ulrikke Falch 🇳🇴, Lukas von Horbatschewsky 🇩🇪, Ludovico Tersigni 🇮🇹, Josefine Frida Pettersen 🇳🇴, Austin Terry 🇺🇸, Nicole Wallace 🇪🇸, Louise Malek 🇫🇷, Herman Tømmeraas 🇳🇴, Robin Migné 🇫🇷, Federico Cesari 🇮🇹, Luise Emilie Tschersich 🇩🇪, Maxence Danet-Fauvel 🇫🇷, Veerle Dejaeger 🇧🇪, Nathan Bouts 🇧🇪, Sira-Anna Faal 🇩🇪, Francesco Centorame 🇮🇹, Michelangelo Fortuzzi 🇩🇪, Lars Brinkman 🇧🇪, Zoë Love Smith 🇳🇱, Irene Ferreiro 🇪🇸, Cengiz Al 🇳🇴, Kennedy Hermansen 🇺🇸, Christopher Paul Veres 🇩🇪, Willem Herbots 🇧🇪, Henrik Holm 🇳🇴, Florian Regtien 🇳🇱, Iman Meskini 🇳🇴, Nathan Naenen 🇧🇪, Suus de Nies 🇳🇱, Milena Tscharntke 🇩🇪, Ina Svenningdal 🇳🇴, Tua El-Fawwal 🇩🇪, Carl Martin Eggesbø 🇳🇴, Olivia Côte 🇫🇷, etc.

(And I obviously forgot some others.)

Omg where do I sign for this ?? 🤌🏻✍🏻😭

[theflowerisblue]

Nooo!! 😧😧 What is this travesty?!

I thought we got rid of at least one of the greater evils!! 😥🙄 Good God, I wouldn’t be able to handle any more of this crap! 🥲

P.S. I’m sorry if you really like Skam🇧🇪 and this accidentally ended up in your inbox. ✌️ I just needed someone to rant to. 😊

AAAAAAAAAAAA JSJSJDJDJDJDJDJ this is NOT what I needed on this fine Sunday evening I-

I mean there’s literally nothing to base this on so I won’t even entertain the idea but if it does happen I sincerely hope no one, and I mean truly no one, gives them the time of day. But also how possible is it actually? After the last two seasons and knowing how much people fucking hate them? After all this time where virtually everyone has forgotten and moved on from it? Is it that profitable to them?

[ayo-edebiri]

I won’t kill you if you don’t kill me. ❤️ And for the other skam-fans in the tag: maybe it’s a good idea to not extensively discuss Tiff’s moral compass after 1 episode. (I still remember the K*to effect; it ruined many a tumblr’s reputation. 🪦😤)

At the very least, for your own comfort as well as the peace and quiet of the Skamverse: don’t involve (comparisons with) Druck (spec.: Kieu My) in your discussion. 😚 We’re all part of the fandom; and most of us are adults. So just separate the two for a while until the divorce proceedings are through. 🙃

Love,

anonion. 🧅

P.S. At least we can all agree on our common hate for Skam🇧🇪! 😂

I've nothing to say, really.

[odi-et-amo85]

Goodbye 2020

It’s just past 9.30 PM, so I’m less than 2.5 hours away from a new year, 2021... I have no idea what that year will bring me. (As @veerledejaegers mentioned, it can be basically only get better from here, right? 😬) But for me personally, 2020 has been a year full of suprises. A year full of lows (obviously), but also some signficant highs. One of those happened on Tuesday, 15 September 2020. That’s the idea I joined Tumblr. ☺️

Since then, I’ve been welcomed warmly my most of you. I have learned so much from you. Whether it was about Spanish culture, Islam (or the perspective of a Muslim young woman in particular), the experience of people of colour, about Germany, the 🌈 that is called the sexual spectrum (as well as the various genders people may identify as 💖), or about Belgian schools... But through Tumblr, I also learned a lot more about myself. About who I am as a person, that’s okay to struggle with things. And that other people struggle too. That brings me to my final point of disovery. I thought I already knew a lot about mental health. But you guys have taught many new things about and varities of mental illness, experiences of what than can be like, and –most importantly– methods to improve your mental health.

So, first of all: thank you so much for all of that!!

I’d like to put a few very special people in the spotlight now:

@bekahtheskamfan : Dear Rebekah, you hold a special place in my heart. You were actually my very first follower. (I still don’t exactly to what I owed the honour.. 😳) But thank you so much for believing in the disorganised mess that was my blog. I wish you all kinds of joy and happiness for 2021. Along with some lovely followers like yourself! 😗

@jackredfieldwasmyjacob : Hi Victor! 🙋‍♀️ You welcomed me in the early days of my Tumblr experience. 😌 Thanks so much for that, that meant a lot. (Considering that I was completely clueless in the beginning. 🥲 You made familiar with the concept of the fandom and how that worked.) An equal amount of thanks for your work with @skamesptranslations. That was a livesaver for everyone like me (who don’t speak Spanish 🙃). And I love your posts about Spanish culture. Keep up the good work! 💪

@ayellowcurtain : Dear T. I know the last couple of months have been tough for you. And I hate that so much. So for 2021, I wish you 🌈🌈🌈 & 😀😀😀!! You are so amazing, I hope you can see that. 🙋‍♀️ Only positive vibes for my little 🐨! 💕💕 I hope you can somehow manage to like Druck a little bit again. (Even if it’s not on the tags.. 🤷‍♀️) I will definitely keep up with your posts. 🤗🤗 and 💋💋 from your biggest fan!

@nothesc : Noelia! 😄 We don’t speak as much as we used to. But I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your Damira fic, “the one”. (Note to all: go check it out on ao3!! ☝️) I hope 2021 brings you luck, happiness and creative energy (perhaps for another fanfic I can fangirl over 🙈). 🍀✨

@ghosttotheparty : Dearest Robin! 🇬🇧💗 What a year it’s been, for both of us! (Although your year was probably way worse. 😔) We kind of became each other’s therapist. 😆 But I’m really glad you’re getting the help that you need and deserve. 🙂 I hope to see more from you in the new year. (I’m talking about your drawings now, they’re soo beautiful!! 😮) I wish you an amazing 2021 (f*ck Brexit, you’ll just get all the happiness you can manage. I’m vetoing!! 😤)!! 🔥🔥🔥

@masumikitty : Masumi, you cutie! 🥺 I love all the positive energy you bring to my tag. You’re cute as a button and you always make me smile. Keep on being you, and I hope 2021 will bring you joy, new adventures and hopefully a half-decent president. (One can hope... 🙄) Happy New Year, my dear! 🎆

@hugoscenteno : Elisa, ma chérie! ❣️ First of all, I still like your updates about your crush. (I know you’re kind of sick of them by now, but I cannot help but hit the 🖤 button..sorry! 😚) But seriously: I wish you a wonderful 2021, in the beautiful Ireland (I’m still a bit jealous 😒) with an awesome man! (I’m talking Josh proportions, crush or no crush, this guy better be decent! 💁‍♀️) Happy New Year! 🎊

@pduwd : Marta! Happy new year for you! 🎇 You’re a sweetheart, a rolemodel and a simply awesome person that deserves the 🌍! You helped me a lot (even without realising). 😙 Thank you for being you! 🤩 May lots of amazing things happen to you in 2021! 🌟

@chibibanane : Jasmin, where do I begin with you? I don’t know what happened. Or how this happened. 🙀 But I guess it’s official: you’re my friend, and a very good one at that! 😸 It all started because of a song, you remember. (Just in case you manage to read this far: good for you, it’s “Nacht” by Bazart 👌) Initially, I was just a fan of @chappedandfadedvds , but we bonded over much more than that. (I even became a co-writer, like how did that even happen?? 😹) By now, I’m able to call you my friend. 😺 (The Dutch don’t seem to care about a ban on fireworks, so I’m trying to take shelter. 😿) Anyways, you’re amazing, ily and I wish you so much good for 2021! 😻 I hope we’ll rock it through 2021! 😼 And hopefully, we can meet up one day! 😽

Also a special thanks to: @nolabballgirl @inmyarmswrappedin @dagcutie @veerledejaegers @hopetofantasy @peaceoutofthepieces (I ❤️ PotP! 🥰) @lucidpantone @jenschilt @franboos @hopelessromanticvirgo (your fic is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) @skamamoroma @noramachwitz

A second special thanks to my 23 followers! I feel very honoured that you find me interesting enough to follow me. 😊 I love you all, and I promise better content will come next year! 😘

Love,

— Thel. 💚

P.S. I’m only half an hour removed from NYE. Just in time! 😅 To everyone else who reads this (particularly from the #druck and #wtfock tag). Thanks for checking in and I look forward to meeting you soon! 😉

In a moment of our life, our fates crossed. 

It took a simple glance to make us understand that our love would last forever.

[odi-et-amo85]

About Trier

I’m seriously at a loss of words right now and talking about a fictional TV series just doesn’t seem appropriate. So, instead of a “happy 21:21”, I would like to ask you for 1 minute of silence for the tragedy that happened in Trier today.

Think about the mother of that baby, who will either die or wake up to the most horrific nightmare imaginable.

[ayo-edebiri]

Oh good God I’m soo sorry for the misunderstanding. 😳 Well, first you should know my “Skam” is that I keep seeing the best people, even if they clearly don’t deserve it. (And if they are rude to me; then it’s probably my own fault. 💀 But that’s just my own personal problem with mi and self esteem. 💔)

And as far as Skam🇧🇪 is concerned. For weeks, they kept baiting the audience with all sort of implied excuses (maybe she doesn’t realise it?; maybe she has trust issues?; maybe she has mi problems?; maybe it’s bc of her twin brother who had a drug problem and had to go to an youth correctional facility bc of it?). They did this really subtly, through tiny details in scenes, through articles on WatWat (the informative website for youth that Skam🇧🇪 collaborates with), through countless seemingly “healing” conversations with a variety of characters. And every time it was the same sh*t: she was still a racist, hostile, shallow and possibly homophobic peace of trash b-word that just wouldn’t start learning from her f*cking mistakes!! 🤬😓😤 (If you didn’t realise it yet, I’m still frustrated about this!)

So fell for all their crap, until after 5 episodes I slowly realised that it wasn’t going to change. ftr: I wasn’t a K*to stan (never have been; btw “stanning” isn’t really my thing anyway 😐). But I was just naive enough to think things would improve. (If nothing would at least the script would... 😒) But it never did.

That was around the time I really became active in the Skamverse. (First though YouTube, then on Tumblr.) And I think I was privileged before. Because none of the f*ckups had ever really affected me and my situation. But at that time it did. First there were rumours K*to could be neurodivergent (I am, so I thought “yeah she doesn’t realise what she does” let me speak up as someone with experience -> fortunately I never did bc she definitely wasn’t neurodivergent and I am definitely not racist! -> but it clung to me somewhat bc I really didn’t want people to think people like me are anything like the racist djrjdh bc they aren’t at all 😭😭), it was hinted through question on that website. But never confirmed and quickly ditched. Then came the canon anxiety problems, with the cutting and the elastic wrist bands (these things were briefly touched upon in a couple of scenes -> but it’s a very severe problem and it wasn’t at all handled as carefully as it should have been 😠 -> like, is enough to write an entire season on its own about; and it’s a dangerous and severe problem for people concerned -> so you just don’t employ these things as a side plot, for the views, or a plead to excuse racism -> that’s just a massive ableist slap in the face to anyone who’s experienced depression, anxiety, or self harm -> and it’s inexcusable: bc guess what? Mental illness doesn’t make you l racist!!! 🙅‍♀️). (I don’t have any personal experience with self harm, but I have been struggling with anxiety a lot for the last couple of years. So for me, the idea that the show suggested a connection between having anxiety problems and being racist just added insult to injury. 💔)

The way they brought it was just extremely deceptive. So that some fans who kept watching the season (not bc it was good but bc we hoped it would get better) realised at the end how much damage this has season caused, among a wide variety of people (poc, people with mental illness, people who have family in prison/ institutions, just people from Belgium in general, all the fans Skam🇧🇪 had acquired [particularly bc of Sobbe] ETC). All the wrong and hurtful stereotypes this show broadcasted... ☣️

Now, let me be very very clear!! This wasn’t meant to victimise myself. I’m a grown woman and I should’ve known better. 🤦‍♀️ But what I would call the K*to-effect is the following: a show baits the fandom into thinking a character will evolve, or change or learn, through unclear ideas of what (s)he’s about. This frequently features involving a variety of different issues (such as family situation, mi or fearfulness) which are all treated without care or respect, thus damaging a lot of already suffering people. The crux of this that the show deceives the fandom into thinking a character will radically come around somehow -> that (s)he will be the polar opposite of what (s)he was. But that growth never comes.

I am so sorry, I really should have clarified that! 😳 Have a lovely day! 🌞

Kind regards,

P.S. In case of Skam🇧🇪 this whole process was extra painful. (I never really cared for the Skam🇧🇪 scriptwriting. 💁‍♀️) Bc I think the WatWat website was their major asset. (It existed before Skam🇧🇪, an is basically a site where all kinds of questions Belgian youth might have about any kind of topic: from sexuality tot blm, and from mental health to getting your driver’s license.) The combination was really fruitful: a Belgian viewer could look up any topic that was discussed on the show, on that site. I think that aspect was brilliant. But s4 just ruined everything a bit. Fortunately for the cast (and every Belgian “Yasmina”, this whole mess apparently hasn’t prevented s5 from happening. But for a long time, even that wasn’t sure. Which is even worse, bc Sana stories are easy to get wrong but oh so important to tell. 😐

You are so valid anon ❤️! I'm sorry for wtfock did to you. I'm going to publish this ask in the wtfock tag because I think this is important. If it makes you unconformable I can erase it from the tag.

Have a lovely day, you are loved ❤️
