• 0:00
  So the a typical season 3 trailer just came out.
• 0:04
  Let's go over it. Hey guys, welcome back to the
• 0:05
  ask me world. So a typical season 3 is coming
• 0:10
  out on Netflix. Now if you've never heard of a
• 0:12
  typical it's a show about a guy who's in high school who's on
• 0:16
  the Spectrum and it's kind of like the goings-on who is life.
• 0:19
  Really? There's no real kind of gist to
• 0:23
  the story of what's going on. It's just like living his life.
• 0:25
  The interesting thing about the character Sam is that he is You
• 0:30
  know displays those classic traits of somebody with
• 0:32
  Asperger's Syndrome basically autism spectrum disorder, you
• 0:35
  know, that's what it's called. But I actually had the
• 0:37
  opportunity to work with Netflix on season one of a typical where
• 0:41
  they reached out and said could I review it and see if at any
• 0:43
  point is the next season for season two because any of those
• 0:46
  are season to coming out so I said, yeah and then I have an
• 0:48
  early access to the stuff and then we did some consultation.
• 0:51
  It was really really good really really fun.
• 0:52
  And I really enjoyed season one A lot happened there.
• 0:56
  You know, it sounds got a girlfriend.
• 0:57
  He got into some mischief. You know just typical stuff
• 1:01
  that's always going to happen in like typical kind of Comedy is
• 1:05
  or drama shows or whatever now they came back out with season
• 1:09
  two now before they did season 2, obviously, I knew I give you
• 1:13
  my feedback on season one and one of the things that we knew
• 1:16
  about Sam was that the main character Sam actually had kind
• 1:19
  of like a whole bucket of all of the traits, you know, he
• 1:22
  basically had it was like, yeah, you know, there's an awesome
• 1:25
  tree around you've got it and that was basically him, you
• 1:28
  know, he had every single trait. So I said, That's not realistic
• 1:30
  that somebody would have all of them, you know and all maybe
• 1:34
  somebody have all in but be you know, very few and far between
• 1:36
  it's not liking and even representation of the community.
• 1:38
  So yeah, they kind of dialed back on some of the kind of
• 1:41
  things the traits that you know, he he was involved with in the
• 1:45
  first season and then it kind of work really well and then in
• 1:49
  season two we saw him kind of like, you know progress and he
• 1:52
  has an ongoing issue where he had a girlfriend in the first
• 1:55
  season the second scene, they didn't have a girlfriend and it
• 1:57
  was really interesting because it gave the average person.
• 2:00
  Knows nothing about autism the access to look into the
• 2:04
  lifestyles life types ups and downs parents friends siblings
• 2:09
  the whole shebang even tying down a job going to school all I
• 2:12
  kinda stuff was amazing and I think they did a really good job
• 2:15
  at it especially in season to season one was great as well.
• 2:18
  I'm just saying they're really good so season 3 is coming out.
• 2:22
  I'm not entirely sure when season she's gonna let me just
• 2:24
  check see if it says a date and it actually creates the season 3
• 2:27
  is actually coming up November. The first on Netflix is a - oh
• 2:30
  actually so you can't get it on anything else.
• 2:32
  Now when I was you know coming across this show.
• 2:36
  I fancied amazing and one of the things I find amazing about it
• 2:39
  was the fact that a typical is it's nice to see a show about
• 2:43
  autism that doesn't directly mock it or I'll give it kind of
• 2:46
  some unlicensed credibility, you know, like the Big Bang Theory
• 2:50
  Sheldon Cooper. They're always kind of taking
• 2:53
  the mick out of him. And then the there's like
• 2:56
  another show a bird from Community, you know, they kind
• 2:58
  of like it's all bit jokey. There's no like real serious
• 3:01
  part of the condition and that you're kind of like Smooth over
• 3:04
  the autism part. So whereas a typical really goes
• 3:08
  in there total autism. So that's why like awesome walks
• 3:10
  difficulties against having on the Spectrum some more of the
• 3:12
  actors now in there on the Spectrum so that showing like
• 3:15
  more diversity within the groups and stuff and he goes to peer
• 3:17
  groups in the second season. It's all really really good.
• 3:20
  So with this third season, I'm glad they're doing it because
• 3:23
  one of the things that I was worried about was that they were
• 3:25
  going to cancel it. And then again, we just have to
• 3:27
  fight for more shows that we'd actually show more autism.
• 3:29
  Mmm, again and again and just really try and find that Niche I
• 3:33
  guess for people to see it but they're actually worked in our
• 3:36
  favor. They've done a season 3 now
• 3:38
  season 3 the trail was very very interesting in contrast to
• 3:41
  season one with the season one trailer that it relied heavily
• 3:45
  on the fact that this is about autism is what a guy who is on
• 3:47
  the Spectrum. It was all ins and outs and you
• 3:49
  saw some of the traits and stuff and you know, all that kind of
• 3:53
  stuff and it made me really think you knew it was what you
• 3:55
  like about autism is going to take some of my teachers, but
• 3:57
  I'll drink the tea. It's going to go call.
• 4:01
  Oh, it's a good blend. See green tea is my thing guys a
• 4:05
  green sea is just so good. I love it.
• 4:07
  Okay, even though the heavy altered of influence let the
• 4:10
  viewer realize that the show is basically about autism and you
• 4:12
  didn't know what to expect from it.
• 4:13
  Can you go? Okay, there's a show about
• 4:14
  autism but what's that going to consist of because you know,
• 4:17
  there's only so much you can say with it being a TV show like,
• 4:21
  how's it going to last nine episodes and all this kind of
• 4:22
  stuff. So in the season 3 trailer it
• 4:27
  really really good how I've done it kind of shows the the the
• 4:30
  more kind of growing up going to college going to want to be in
• 4:34
  like dorm rooms and college Sam is kind of going to college now.
• 4:37
  He's leaving high school and he's becoming more independent
• 4:40
  and that he's going to have to rely on other things like can't
• 4:42
  find his mom or his best friend back at home and those kind of
• 4:45
  things and it looks really really interesting.
• 4:47
  But again, you don't know if he's on the Spectrum unless you
• 4:49
  already know and you seen season 1 and 2, so that was very very
• 4:52
  interesting but don't say just show any of it like the trade to
• 4:55
  any kind of autism mishaps if you will one of the most
• 4:59
  fascinating things Is that he does mention the Spectrum in a
• 5:02
  he sitting in a like a board of of kids and they're about to
• 5:07
  take an exam or something. He says four out of five people
• 5:09
  on the Spectrum don't graduate from college, which is amazing
• 5:13
  because that's a ridiculous like low number and it's horrible to
• 5:17
  think about but it's good that they're addressing it.
• 5:19
  That's what this show does it. I feel like it addresses the
• 5:21
  politics of autism and without diving too far into it.
• 5:24
  A lot of people kind of say. Oh, well, you know, here we go
• 5:27
  white male teenage, you know, Typical autism image, you know,
• 5:32
  it's not fair representation. But then again, they've chosen
• 5:35
  to talk about a young boy in this one or young man in this
• 5:38
  one. Whereas in Sesame Street.
• 5:40
  There's a young girl, you know, so it just depends on the the
• 5:44
  Creator's I don't think there's anything Sinister there.
• 5:46
  I think we often remember that as well.
• 5:48
  And another thing I see quite a lot of negative slack and talk
• 5:50
  about things like a typical on the internet people saying like
• 5:53
  I it was rubbish because it's really represent autism fairly
• 5:55
  and blah blah blah, but it's the best we've got on the moment.
• 5:57
  Okay, maybe it doesn't do everything that you want.
• 5:59
  The movie doesn't have like the specific details in the Academia
• 6:03
  level of research that you can have one for something.
• 6:05
  You can't always have that especially not with
• 6:07
  entertainment and at the end of the day, we're wanting more
• 6:09
  people to learn more about it because this is what a typical
• 6:11
  does it compels people to go and then, you know open up a search
• 6:16
  window and look for autism and Hounds awesome affect kids in
• 6:19
  school because this season season 3 is showing that
• 6:22
  transition of like leaving school parents have had like
• 6:25
  divorce issues or kind of separation issues are how's he
• 6:28
  doing with our home is his sister.
• 6:29
  Has got you know emotional relationship issues going on and
• 6:32
  stuff. How is he going to relate to
• 6:33
  that? And how was he going to you
• 6:35
  know, show that comradery between him and his friends and
• 6:37
  things like that and I find that fascinating because people want
• 6:40
  to know how how would a person with an awesome special
• 6:44
  condition can relate to that but that is the only time like I was
• 6:48
  saying about that the graduating college is the only time he
• 6:50
  mentions people on the Spectrum, but it doesn't say myself, you
• 6:53
  know, it's like I'm on the Spectrum and people on the
• 6:55
  Spectrum, you know have a really low number of passing out of
• 6:58
  college, you know. Really interesting because he's
• 7:01
  kind of not talking about the autism.
• 7:03
  He's drawing more into the lifestyle and the the click of
• 7:07
  life if you like. It's quite interesting, but it
• 7:09
  does show some of his quirks like it is a scene where he's
• 7:13
  opening closing a door and it's about squeaking it annoys at me
• 7:15
  says to the the roommate. Oh, you know, there's not always
• 7:18
  squeaking. He says well, I don't really
• 7:19
  open it 35 times like you did and it's really interesting
• 7:22
  because Sam's going around finding things that are
• 7:24
  triggering him emotionally and sensory wise, but you don't
• 7:28
  really know that you know, You don't know older are part of
• 7:30
  autism because you just expect it that it's just Sam and that's
• 7:33
  how he is. If you've never seen the episode
• 7:36
  1 a sorry Season 1 season 2 so in all in all I think that
• 7:40
  season tree looks really good. It's basically it's the it's the
• 7:44
  continuation of that life flow, you know, so you saw someone
• 7:47
  who's having difficulties in high school, then it gets a
• 7:49
  therapist and he's working on it and then you sure all the trials
• 7:52
  and tribulations in high school in season 2 and like the ups and
• 7:55
  downs of and a girlfriend home friends going to Promenade and
• 7:57
  stuff. So now the transitioning into
• 7:59
  like the How is he going to deal with that?
• 8:01
  How's it going to put those things in situations?
• 8:03
  And I think it's great. I think it's great that they've
• 8:04
  done that with college because you have young people watching
• 8:07
  the show and being influenced and maybe somebody on the
• 8:09
  Spectrum. It really looks up to this show
• 8:11
  to being their source of kind of like feeling connected to
• 8:14
  something and feeling a little you know, less kind of ostrich
• 8:18
  eyes from situations and things like that and I feel personally
• 8:22
  that that's great thing. I mean, you know who would argue
• 8:25
  with that but at the end of the day, you know, that's my
• 8:28
  personal opinion on the a uncle and a typical season 3 trailer.
• 8:31
  I think it's amazing November the first it's coming out and
• 8:35
  I'm very very excited about it because like, you know, it's
• 8:38
  again I enjoyed I enjoyed the season is not just because you
• 8:40
  know worked with Netflix, you know, that's nothing to do with
• 8:42
  it. I would've been completely
• 8:43
  honest. I'm always completely honest if
• 8:45
  I was, you know, if I found it rubbish a tell you was rubbish,
• 8:48
  but I actually really enjoy it. If you don't know what it is.
• 8:51
  I highly recommend you going check it out right now on
• 8:53
  Netflix. I do you have you watched a
• 8:55
  typical do like a typical to do enjoy did you watch season
• 8:58
  wanted you watch season 2 I'm not entirely sure, you know of
• 9:02
  everyone's feedback because I've never asked her.
• 9:04
  I know a couple of my friends have watched it and they really
• 9:06
  liked it. I know that some people were
• 9:08
  wary of the trailer for season 1 when it came out and they
• 9:11
  weren't sure if they were going to be enjoying it or not.
• 9:13
  But I feel like you know, there's there's a place in
• 9:17
  there's a place in the community for I support and I think it
• 9:19
  does a really good job. The only thing that I would say
• 9:23
  about it is that the naming kind of doesn't really distinctly
• 9:27
  tell you what the shows about a typical is quite ambiguous name.
• 9:29
  But it does, you know, it works for the show, and I think yeah,
• 9:32
  it's a great show. Hey guys.
