ReaX28: Evolution of the X-Men

Oh, also the series is over. RIP. No but seriously, this finale was the cherry on top of the surprisingly good sundae that was this show. I thought this series would be a vehicle to infodump about the X-Men. And, while I did do a lot of that, I found myself getting fully invested in these silly High School AU antics. This series was not only a good representation of the X-Men, but genuinely well-crafted and exceedingly clever. The characters were so fun to watch, many even better than their comic-selves (others were Storm). It's no wonder it had such an impact on the stories the books would tell after it wrapped. As far as the finale goes, much like the rest of this season, it seems cater made for me. My most absurd wishes came true because this show is my exact kind of silly (...maybe because it was a formative impact on me but we'll unpack that later). I can't express how happy I am to have gotten to share this experience with all of you. When I started I didn't know if reaction content was going to work for me. My usual stuff is so scripted and edited, I really doubted if I'd be funny enough off-the-cuff to carry a whole series to fruition. Honestly, I thought I might phase it out after a few eps like a lot of my other series lol. But, y'all really responded to it in a way I never would have expected. For the last few months, the best part of my week has been getting to chat about these eps with y'all in the comments and discord. I can't thank you enough. That said, this isn't a eulogy. The channel lives on. i have a lot of fun ideas for what to react to next ( in addition to our new two shows) and if you enjoyed this, I hope you consider sticking around!
