maybe i’ll do that like this for an opinion thing so uhhh like this for an opinion
1. gina porter is the best character and ej and carlos are close seconds. all the kids have great potential but to me they’re the most developed/interesting
2. if this wasn’t a disney show we could see more intense storylines/storylines that better reflect the experiences of teenagers?? like ej’s insecurity and anxiety should be explored, nini’s self-esteem issues, etc. they always gloss over that shit
3. seblos is cute, but they have no development and that really sucks so i can see the potential with elos....but we know that the likelihood of them actually making ej canonically gay is low
4. all of the cast is vocally talented imo but i find juj and joe and dara to be the strongest vocalists, so if they don’t get their solos next season....there will be words
5. gini could serve as an iconic ship or friendship and if they keep up the gina vs nini bullshit in s2 i swear to god i’m gonna lose my mind
6. red and kourtney need to have serious talks with ricky and nini but i feel like redky especially?? ricky literally told red that nini was the only person he could talk to? like that shit hurts all big red does is care for people and love them unconditionally
7. big red is so underappreciated by all of the characters which is why ashlyn noticing him is nice but...they’re both gay please stop trying to put them together
8. howie with either big red, ej, or kourtney would be a serve....i lean towards big red or kourtney bc they’re both underappreciated and deserve love and as much as i ship redky, red deserves so much better than ricky
9. this is for the rinis...and i say this as a multi..the way that some of you refuse to give rina a chance bc the stans are “problematic” when they just call it how they see it...should stop. there are problematic people on both sides and whatever, but don’t write off an entire-
ship just because of it. give rina a chance! it has so much potential and rinas are actually nice when you make an effort to interact with them and be nice
10. joe frankie juj larry and dara are so underappreciated. sofia is too, in comparison to josh and liv, but the other five...it’s painful. they deserve so much better bc they’re all so talented and genuinely good and funny people.
11. sofia and liv are my two favorite people and seeing people pit them against each other hurts my heart bc it’s so obvious that they adore each other and have one of the strongest bonds in the entire cast...let them be best friends
12. the fact that so many people sleep on rj redky gini kourtlyn seblos elos ashni etc really rubs me the wrong way. i’m not saying to ship all of them or even any of them but some people are really like “i’m good with my one het ship” and i’m like...why?
13. just bc a ship isn’t canon or even hinted at doesn’t mean they aren’t worth exploring. kourtlyn could be so powerful...but we don’t have canon interactions yet. that’s what au’s and hc’s are for.
14. this fandom is a MESS but i will say that some of these au’s...the edits...there’s talent here. that’s the only reason we haven’t d worded yet.
15. i’ve said this before and i will say it again! when nini ej and gina serve the power trio of the century and ej and gina help nini become independent and they just vibe and become besties...i will never shut up about this i want it to happen!
16. adding on to my last one, ej and nini have the potential to be really good friends so i want to see that explored too
17. mazzara jokes are funny n shit but i don’t actually like him in canon bc he never apologized for what he said to carlos. it was mean and you could see how hurt carlos was...that’s not how teachers should treat students.
18. liv and sofia are sm better than vanessa hudgens on a vocal standpoint and just as people in general...all vanessa does is drink wine and bitch about things she has no place bitching about
19. the writers are so lazy for just making carlos’ last name rodriguez like frankie’s...they really don’t give a shit about some of the characters and it shows!
20. there are some people who need to take a hint and leave this fandom bc we don’t accept racists homophobes transphobes sexists etc here <3
21. it’s okay to want notices and be upset when someone undeserving (like m slur) gets them when you’re just unproblematic and truly love whoever it is...but it’s not okay to talk shit about someone because your jealous they got one and you didn’t.
22. skinny ratios themselves aren’t intimidating but if you STRIVE to only follow 20 people bc you wanna be that bitch then that’s weird to me
23. i think a seb and gina duet could be very powerful. i don’t know why. something about that duo just speaks to me
24. some of you guys have a superiority complex on here for whatever reason and it’s not cute
25. people are so willing to cancel poc for literally nothing and not give them a chance to explain themselves or apologize but defend white people when the evidence is mounting and their excuses are shit....it’s disgusting
26. the racism on here needs to be addressed especially in this fandom and if you hate on rinas for doing that then you need to stop? ignoring it doesn’t solve anything it NEEDS to be addressed so if you’re not gonna do that then don’t shit on those who do
27. i want my riclos bff serve so bad
28. if you dislike sofia wylie or larry saperstein i cannot trust you i’m sorry
29. i don’t fw portwell they’re like siblings to me and the age gap between matt and sofia...no thank you. no offense if you ship portwell but that’s how i feel
30. doafp is so superior to hsmtmts with actual rep that isn’t forced and you guys still sleep on it. stream doafp please, it’s such a good show
