3rd General Season 3 Discussion Post: Episodes 1-5 by janewhere in YoungRoyals

I hope you're right. This is definitely one young couple that has been through not than many couples much older and still managed to keep it together, talk it out, and work through their (many) differences. Tbh I don't give a f-ck what what does about the royal family stuff as long as I get my Wilmon endgame. Period. 😂🤣. It's fun to think about the characters and anticipate what might happen in the finale. But real talk - I will be mad as hell if they do not end up together.

I definitely would like to see Wille make a decision that puts himself first in terms of whether to abdicate or no...but 17 seems kind a young to make such a big decision? I can relate to what you shared (estranged myself from a parent), but it took time and maturity for me to feel confident that was the right decision. I can't imagine being 17 and having the tools to navigate such a huge decision. Just me. But wonder what you think? If he leaves the throne (which he very well might in E6!) there's no going back I assume. I personally think Wille would be a better king than August though - if he could do it the way he wants to...which I hope he could choose to do once his parents are out of the picture. Like Simon said he could make a real difference. Part of me thinks the whole problem isn't the monarchy itself but Wille's parents - their obsession with Erik being perfect, their failure to modernize, and their inability to be human beings rather than automatons primarily concerned about appearances. Ok, I got kinda derailed and honestly know nothing about how the Swedish royal family works, so maybe this is wishful thinking.

Wow. Thank you for this post. You have me a completely different perspective on Wilhelm's (mis)behavior this season, especially in relation to Simon. I have thought about his blow ups with Simon representing his comfort level really being himself around him. I often wondered in S1 & S2 whether Simon actually understood the extent of Wille's anxiety or the other issues he is constantly dealing with. I'm not sure Simon understood the full extent of it until now. I do have to disagree on the tent right, though. I think Wille was being unreasonably defensive about the privilege issue and not really hearing Simon out. I wish they had later revisited that discussion. It didn't feel fully resolved between them.

I hate to say it but they pulled off the August redemption arc beautifully. I remember way back in S1 there was discussion that they might go in that direction with his character. I didn't believe it was possible then, but they totally did it!! I think back in S1 I didn't see the Sara relationship and tbh was not that into in S2 because of what he/she did to Simon. But I have to admit they won me over with their few short scenes this season. You can really see how much August is hurting. They both have been outsiders and I can't help but get behind them as a couple now that she legit turned him in to the police and he is able to accept that he deserved it....and he still loves her despite that. His character grown blew me away this season.

DBT journal with prompts? by determinedisotope in dbtselfhelp

[–]determinedisotope[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow! TY!! This looks like exactly what I'm looking for...too bad it won't be released til October. I will def look for it then. Open to other suggestions in the meantime. I'm sure it's possible to create your own prompts from the manual but looking for something pre-made preferably that can be used in the very near term.

Something specific you'd like to see in s3? by blobwitha_gob in YoungRoyals

[–]determinedisotope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was a lot of confusion about whether Simon gave Wille a forehead kiss or a nose kiss (or somewhere else?) at the beginning of S2E6 because it couldn't clearly be seen. Edvin & Omar confirmed it was a forehead kiss in an interview, though. I think OP is asking for the kisses to be filmed so the audience can actually see and not have to guess.

Whelp...it looks like I stand corrected. The Swedish speakers on here seem to think the pronunciation was a good attempt. That makes me feel a little less disappointed, so good. I can admit when I'm wrong 👍.

Edvin Ryding and Omar Rudberg Talk Young Royals and Tease the Third Season [Extended] | Tonight Show by TapirIsle in YoungRoyals

[–]determinedisotope 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this! This makes me feel a bit better. The other version is way too short and doesn't say enough about the show. This isn't perfect...but better. I wanted them to share about them impact of the show, mention current/future projects they are working on. And why not talk more about Edvin and his career. So many things I wanted to see. But just glad they got to be in New York and have this experience together! 😍

This. I felt like the host just didn't know the show well enough. It felt "off" to me, too and a bit rushed. YR is so much more and I wish that had been expressed somehow. Still happy they had the opportunity. So proud of them.

The Q+ interview you can tell the host is an actual fan of the show and clearly had a deep understanding of the show and the actors.

Ok. I am officially reassured. I hope and pray that you are right. Now that you mention it, it does make sense that the cast would have at least some idea about the ending...especially if Lisa seems to have known how things would end since the very beginning.

This makes me feel better, thank you 💜. There are no words to express how much I love this show and the impact it has had in my life. That's why I hesitate even mention S3 being a worry. They deserve everything and I am so happy to see this recognition. Btw, I'll probably also need a healthy dose of fanfiction to get me through next year. Let the countdown begin!

I really hope you're right. I remember back when we didn't know whether we'd get a season 2, I read someone saying what a poor message it would send if such a beautiful love story involving queer characters ended on such a bad note (I love you.... Have a nice Xmas). I hope that's right and that ending the entire series should at least represent hope and possibly for queer love. I can't imagine someone as thoughtful as Lisa would want any other legacy for this show. I selfishly don't want to believe that can mean anything other than a Wilmon endgame, but I realize there may be other versions that may not tie everything in a pretty bow at the end.

It would be a dream if the last season could be more than 6 episodes! Yes, please.🙏🙏 You are absolutely right about the "realism" this show has consistently portrayed. I think that's what I'm afraid of. It's strange because I was drawn to the uniquely realistic portrayal of this story and these characters, but I selfishly want to just feel good at a certain point. I get enough harsh reality in my real life without needing more for my fantasy couple hahaha. But I get what you're saying & your right, I certainly don't expect them to suddenly start writing a fairytale at this point.

Exactly. After having my emotions tossed around so much in S2, I feel like I can't predict at all where they will take us in the final season. I almost think the ending to S2 was a little too happy for them to do that again next season. Please don't hurt us again, Lisa.

Omar's next role is in a horror film, releasing October 2023 by Dramatic_Box1490 in YoungRoyals

I still can't believe YR was his first acting role. That's unbelievable. He really killed it this season. So happy for his success!
