"What do they think their demographic is here?"?!? (12:03) It's a direct sales pitch! If TimeLife aren't selling any boxsets, they pull the ad.
Demographic analysis is the new phrenolo-eugenics. The only thing that really strategically matters about the Jenny Nicholson audience is that we all dispense a disproportionate amount of our income on AV equipment, musical instruments and general art supplies.

It's fun how the thumbnails for these two previews are almost completely identical except for the ENTIRELY DIFFERENT OUTFIT

Whoever it was told a story about how she didn't particularly like cats and had originally wanted to write about horses, but couldn't because horses don't fight things, they just run away.

I'm not entirely sure which of the "Erins" it was (this was back with the original three, though), and she was perfectly nice, I was just at that point in my life where I had yet to realize "Erin Hunter" was not an actual person, so having one of them come out and announce that there were others was a shock.

Ha! So that's how China Beach is linked to all of this! After watching the last preview, I spent a sleep deprived half hour or so trying to figure out how two pretty disparate shows like these are connected. Then I gave up and promptly fell asleep.
Interesting info about L.J. Smith, she certainly seems to have gotten a raw deal from Alloy.
I'm enjoying this so far; it should be fun to watch when it is one large complete video!

My mid-20s self still checks up on that series' wiki now and again to see where the story and characters are at...but I certainly never met one of the "Erins". Which one was it and what was she like? I am curious what she did to shatter your child self.

I turned to the gf when this video started and was like, "I seem to remember there being some kind of thing where the author got fired and they kept writing the books anyway...I hope Jenny mentions it so I can know what went on there." AND BEHOLD. *rips it off of my vision board*
Anyway this video is going to be so good, I'm hype

Incredibly intrigued that Jenny decided to post two fairly long previews for this upcoming video!!! Can't wait for the full thing!! I'd never seen or thought about Vampire Diaries before, but, as with anything she records, I am suddenly captivated by the topic. I really appreciate the tangents and little asides that deviate from the narrative just a bit - it makes everything that much funnier and engaging, like she really is piecing all of this together on the spot, and the viewer is the hapless Watson witnessing a complete breakdown of the Vampire Diaries.

Oh man the author's story took a turn I didn't expect.
And having China Beach play into it was just icing on the cake.

Name-dropping the Warrior cats series has unlocked some primal memories in me. I met one of the women who functioned under the "Erin Hunter" pen name and it kind of shattered my 11-year-old reality. Now I just need to know if Jenny is actually familiar with the series, because that is a take I would love to hear.

Lolol pll and gg were the same deal with the books not matching the show in any capacity and going off the rails. In the gg books Chuck is gay and has a white monkey he takes everywhere on his shoulder. In the pll books Emily ding dong ditches her baby.

🏴✊ No kind of a big deal but in case it ever comes up in casual conversation for anyone, the way you'd pronounce the name of that party organiser is 'blod-AY-weth'. It means 'flower-faced' 😁🌸🦉https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blodeuwedd
