It's surprising to see people watch this without watching the movie first. You won't understand many of the jokes that way, even if you know what goes in the film. Seeing a joke executed and reading or hearing about it are 2 different things.
Not watching the movie, means from the first frame the show has less punch. They both start exactly the same way, with a campfire party. A lot of what's going in that opening is directly in reference to the movie's. The first funny thing is just seeing everyone older, and then you start to notice how much they copy and invert from the movie. And this is just the first scene.
So please, don't watch the show before the film.
Can someone remind me what the ending is supposed to reference? I watched the movie like two weeks ago but I must've missed something. Who was the hitch hiker?
It was Chris Pine's character, who survived getting shot in the chest and run over by a vehicle.
I'm almost 100% sure that I still wouldn't have enjoyed the show even if I'd seen the movie. In fact, I'd argue that if I watched the movie I never would have watched the show.

honestly can't fathom watching this show without seeing the movie first.

So I wonder howAbby ended up a counselor by the end of the summer.
I don't think it's explicitly stated that she is a counselor in the movie
But what is the significance of him going to New York? I haven't seen the movie in a while, so maybe I'm missing some sort of connection.
Well, she's with all of the other counselors at Beth's pow wow at the beginning of the movie.

Yeah, I don't think that particular joke worked at all.She's supposed to be 13 in the show, which just seems like it doesn't jive with the promiscuous counselor archetype she played in the film.

I'm convinced that I'll never meet more than the two people I know in real life that know/enjoy The State.
I used to wonder who they filled their audience with when filming. Probably just unpaid MTV interns.
Didn't notice too many jokes go over my head it just felt like a parody of everything 80s, went back to the movie and didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the Tv Series. Will give it another watch through sometime soon after seeing the movie.honestly can't fathom watching this show without seeing the movie first.

I actually didn't like some of the references they made to the movie. Some of them just came off as "haha, yeah, that was the same thing that happened in the movie"
For instance,Stuff just isn't as funny the second time around.Victor being stopped by the log during the chase or the nurse doing the same "for your/my pussy" line.
I finished the show, and while I laughed more than the movie, still didn't do much for me. And I really don't get why. It should be a movie and show I love, but I didn't :/ oh well
Did you understand SNAPS? I really want to know how to play that to fuck with my friends.That doc on Netflix for the filming of the movie is great, highly recommend fans of it to check it out. Really cool seeing Wain and Showalter's process and temperament/interactions with everyone else. Janeane seems like such a kind and grateful soul <3 Loved her advice to the kids for how to be famousmeet Ben Stiller in a deli
AD Miles looks like somebody that would be a blast to hang with, and David Hyde Pierce looks predictably out of place and awkward around the rest of the cast lol. Seems like it was a tough shoot seeing as it rained for like 90 percent of the time they were there but also a fun one, lots of camaraderie amongst the cast and crew. Blows my mind that Bradley Cooper graduated from SAG like two days before they started shooting. Would love to be PA for a Wain production, guy knows his shit.
