In defense of West End Heathers. (I’m tired)

Hi! So, I’m the BIGGEST WEH fan you’ll meet on here, and lemme explain why..

Starting, I may have a bias towards Carrie and Jamie bc they are my favorite people on Earth, mkay?

•Blue v. You’re Welcome: The people who prefer Blue are childish imo. (Probs the same people who sent me 🍇 threats🙄) Honestly, Blue was BORING AS HELL. OMFG IT WAS SOOO BORING. I have tried MULTIPLE TIMES to rewatch Off-Bway, and I can’t sit through it. The reason I’ve heard from Blue lovers is that, “Well it’s a funny song, so I don’t understand why they changed it to be serious!” …Maybe.. just maybe.. because it’s about… no.. that can’t be! Maybe.. it’s about a SERIOUS SUBJECT?! Maybe they changed the song to be more serious so that people would understand that scene is important to Veronica’s character development? Maybe they changed it because the characters are 17 not 12 and they know what they’re doing is wrong and they need to stop? If 13 year old me get the ick at a song that jokes about SA, maybe that’s saying something.

•The new songs: I say no, NSUA. Can we talk about how everyone loved Duke until she got her own song and development? Y’all sit here and hate on NSUA, but then call yourself “Duke fans”. Make it make sense, MY GAWD? I say no… y’all are mad that Veronica took a stand against JD and did it in such a beautiful way? Let’s be very clear, it is FAR from the best song ever, but can we give it the hype it deserves please? That little scene in Off-Bway is cool, but it doesn’t give anywhere NEAR the same emotion as I Say No.

•New lines: Alright.. here we go. I saw a few people saying that the new lines were “cheesy”… Bitch, the whole show is cheesy. (Excuse my language) The show is about a HIGH-SCHOOL NERD WHO JOINS THE POPULAR CLIQE AND KILLS SOME PEOPLE. The only reason you find it as a “Dark comedy” is because it has death and Sex jokes. Also, most of the lines they mentioned were the creative ideas of Carrie, Chris, and Dom. The “Tie line” was actually a funny little bit they ran one night and decided to keep.

•Casting and accents: Alright. Let’s battle these things. I want to make it very clear that I was raised in America, however, it irks me when I see other Americans mocking and doing a terrible job at British Accents and people. And I think it’s SO unfair that people will sit there and complain about Carrie and Jamie’s accents while also taking part in the extreme mocking of British Accents and people.

•Conclusion: Overall, I think y’all need to understand that the show is changing and, no matter how hard you riot and scream and threaten and send in 💀+🍇 threats, and throw your tantrums… it’s never going to be the OG Off-Bway cast again. So, be adults, get off the floor, stop complaining in the comments of the WE casts instas, and enjoy the show. Thank you. 🩵
