This JUST came across my timeline’s and I clicked IMMEDIATELY!! This show was like a fever dream in time for me. I had all the books and when the show came out I was in. Was it bonkers? Yes Was is Camp? Yes Did I love it all?? FRIGGIN YES!!!

DELIGHTED to see someone looking back at this bonkers show which was somehow even shallower than the books (I was obsessed with the books too) yet equally addictive!

"Sweet Valley, sWEet Valley HiiiiiiiIIIIIgh"...gimmie more, take me back!

Haha I read the books religiously as a kid and I remember being so thrilled that a tv show had been made. When I was watching the pilot episode way back when it first aired in the early 90s I had excitedly briefed my mum on the synopsis of what SVH was about. I distinctly remember as soon as it got to that scene at the party and Liz was dancing my mums eyebrows shot up and she looked at me and was like "She's the shy twin?!" lol. I remember loving the show if just because I loved the books. But I remember being a bit annoyed because I had always imagined that if they did a SVH tv series then it would be more in line with Beverly Hills 90210. With a decent budget and more series topics. Where as it ended up being more in line with Saved By The Bell with a lower budget and a lot of over the top comedy moments. But it is still has a big nostalgic place in my heart. SVH and the Clueless tv series. Regarding the ages of the cast. Yeh a lot of them were well in to their 20s. But in fairness to the twins playing Liz and Jess, they were still only 18 by the time the show was released. So only two years older than they were playing. They were mature looking for their ages but I think also the styling and makeup etc added to making them look older. You are so right too. The tv series did Lila so dirty. If they made her like the book then she should have looked like a young Jennifer Connelly and acted more like Blair from Gossip Girl. Who Im 100% sure the writer of the Gossip Girl books based on Lila. This was a fun watch. Will look forward to seeing more on your channel!

You're an amazing singer.❤ I still love this show and the books. I grew up in the 80s and 90s with the books and really love(d) the silliness of them and the tv series. My comfort show.😂😊

I cannot believe Cynthia and Brittney Daniel were only 18 years old when filming began on SVH! They looked at least 10 years older. They’re nearly 50 now and look amazing but wow did they look old for 18 year olds.

I remember this theme song from childhood but none of the episodes LMAO!! It was....an OK time? At least they found actual twins to play them tho, that was always fun.

i use to always read the books in middle school and i found the show on youtube during the pandemic

I used to love the books and tv show. Although it took me a while to warm up to the tv show because it was more campy and funny like Saved By The Bell, while the books had a more serious soap opera-ish tone and feel to them.

90s math: boy + curtains = dreamboat

I never read the books but I've been watching the show on youtube (it was a bit before my time) and omg this shit irks me but I cannot stop watching. I fuxking hate Jessica but I keep believing that she will become a better person. 😩😭💔 And yes WINSTON is THE guy. Why isn't he getting girls?!?! And LILA (OG one not the replacement) was the most entertaining character. Periodt.

What an awesome video! I am literally obsessed with your channel!!! I love pop culture stuff like this!!

Finally someone gets me. I watch this when I was young. Now what watch it while high!

More videos and longer runtime, please! You're so funny. You got my sub before the video was even over! Have you ever seen the show "Being "Eve"? I watched that as a teen, and I swear, no one else knows what I'm talking about when I bring it up.😅

It’s just so terribly brilliant!

3 minutes in and i'm so invested already, you're a great storyteller

Funny….. the pilot is actually episode 2…. Guess this one was a more fun episode to start the series with… so they switched them…..

Great video - I used to bloody love SVH... Just a slight thing though, consider using a pop filter, with your mic on a mic stand. I know it's kinda popular rn to hold the mic in videos, but you'll get way better audio quality if you keep it at a steady distance from your mouth and use a pop filter. You've got a nice voice to listen to and what you're saying is cool, but the pops on the mic are a bit distracting and it's an easy thing to fix. Hope I don't sound patronizing with the unsolicited YT advice, I just think you've got a lot of potential as a content creator so wanted to kinda pass on something I've found to help a lot with audio.

Liz and Nerdy get together and they got a black friend. Never mind they recast Todd and he looks like the nerdy guy, lol.

I agree with EVERYTHING you said!!! LOL at the choreographed dance commentary and them looking 52!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

I used to watch this occasionally, but does anyone remember Breaker High? The one where a young Ryan Gosling played a sleazy geek on a high school that was on a cruise ship?

can i ask a question i know jessica is supposed to be the more evil one of the two but seeing into trouble constantly is kind of a drag and she usually deserves it but still i feel like tamara from sister sister is similar but she was still likeable and did grow to be more responsible as she went on i just don't have fun watching a character like that what do you think

Not enough people talk about this! I was a fetus when I caught this on tv, so scandalous 😂

I’m gonna skip to the final episode, lol.
