I'm late to the party, but how do you sync up the reaction to the show? The reaction speed seems to be a bit faster than the show.

Posted this today on S1E1 but I'll put it here too. I had the same problem: For anyone else starting this reaction channel, I had problems syncing. Some people, like Dante here, were very helpful in later posts that will clear this up: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_44vuSXGi4&ab_channel=MathEasySolutions This video has a tutorial of my comment on the first episode. 11:43-14:44 is the part that shows it. The speed I use is 1.0428. Hopefully with this vid and my comment on episode 1 you can get it to work for you! Someone left a comment above mine on episode 1 explaining how to download it to VLC and change the speed that way as well. Good luck!" The way I did it was a bit different, and it might save future viewers a headache. Instead of SPEEDING UP The Wire, I SLOWED DOWN the viemo reactions posts from LM Reactions. Speeding up The Wire was a bit weird and noticeable, I don't notice the difference so much when I slow down LM Reactions. So for the speed I use to slow them down is: document.querySelector('video').playbackRate = 0.959285 It's almost perfect (ALMOST: I need to change the speed some more, this will take multiple viewings) at this point. Good luck and enjoy the show!!!!

Lola, your dismay when the credit music begins to play at the end is just fantastic.

I did. He was just like Bodie or anyone else in the show. A victim of his environment.

I really love your long reviews at the end of each episode. Way more in-depth and personal than other reactions. Don't sweat making it into a structure, I think going off of each other's opinions and direction is far more interesting and revealing of the plot and characters of the show. The conversation should go in the direction of your interests and let that be your guide. Also! The comments here seem really hardcore too. Never had time to read through them but now I think I'll slow down and look into them too. You have good fans! Excellent channel. Thank you!

Had a peek at the first couple of minutes as I'm about to sleep. Yeah, Mc Nulty was falling hard off the wagon at the beginning of this one, if one could even say he was on it to begin with. Amidst all the usual drunken tropes that him and Bunk share, I think the drunk driving (and in particular *this* episode's drunk driving) really illustrates the almost death-wish mentality that Jimmy has. I wouldn't go as far as to call it s****dal tendencies or anything that severe, but it isn't far off either. And to me, that's some very heavy characterisation.

Yo Space, I checked out the first episode of Semblance Of Sanity reaction to Bojack. Excellent stuff, I really enjoy how insightful they are. They picked up on loads with the first episode alone, I think it'll be a good reaction series. Also they upload so frequently?!
