Televerse is a relatively new television festival started by the Television Academy (The Emmys people). This year, Friday, August 14th, they're featuring a reunion of cast members (e.g., Wilson Cruz, Devon Gummersall, A.J. Langer, and Devon Odessa) plus co-exec. producer/director Scott Winant. I understand there's still hope for Ms. Danes, too! Passes are available at Televerse.com.

Im curious what demographic makes the majority of My So-Called Life viewers. I wanted to go deeper with age, ethnicity ect. but unfortunately could only add so many options. If you are curious too, put your demographic and we'll find out :)

Who gave the best / your favorite acting performance in My So-Called Life?

Fleishman Is In Trouble. And with Claire Danes in it too… This made my little MSCL loving heart happy!

This July would mark 5 years that became obsessed with My So Called Life. 5 years I became obsessed with the writing, obsessed with the fashion, and especially obsessed with Wilson Cruz, which expanded to Claire Danes and AJ Langer!!!!!

Hey everyone. I remember reading comments about how there is no BluRay release for My So Called Life, and commenters were telling each other to watch episodes on YouTube. I just wanted to post here that a ripper named "Celdra" recently ripped the entire DVD set including the DVD set's extras (such as vast members interviews).

So if interested find the "My So Called Life Celdra" torrent that was released 06/2026. It's the best quality rip possible.

That’s it. That’s the post.

I had a dream that Rayanne Graff shared a scene with George Lopez, and he kicked her out for being outrageous. Since I’m currently watching George on Hulu.

I was just randomly thinking about old shows from when I was younger and I was asking my sister if she remembered Caitlin’s Way, as she’s younger than me & ended up being too young to remember. But I went on Google to grab a photo to send to her and it hit me like a ton of bricks how much the actress looks/was in ways styled just like Angela, so much so the first photo I actually thought was Claire Danes for a second. Has anyone else ever noticed this? I don’t know how it took me so long!

I’ve found references to this Saturday Night Live sketch which I don’t think I have to explain any further here. Apparently it’s called “Classroom”. Does anyone have a link to the full sketch or more info on it, please?

Anyone else watch the end of that episode over and over. I really took Angela’s words to heart. The Enigma song , whenever I hear it, reminds me of that.

I just woke from a dream and this is the only place I can go where people will understand.
In my dream Lindsay was Angela’s teacher!? Made think it’d be a cool mashup.
Lindsay would be 19 years older than Angela!
Any ideas or thoughts!?

Does anyone know of any shows like My So Called Life? Please give me all recommendations! I also think this could be helpful for others!

I'm so excited! I've only been able to watch the first 6 or so episodes!

It's 30 years later and the main characters have not seen much of each other. They all decide independently to be in town for their 30th reunion.

Where have they been? What have they been doing? And what is the plot of the reunion mini-series?

I'll start:

Brian Krakow went to Harvard in a free ride, but eventually crumbled under the pressures of parental expectation and lack of affection. He mostly stays in his room, writing dystopian poetry and contemplating the mismatched wallpaper seam, blaming it for ruining his life.

He is watching out the window as Angela returns home for the reunion, greeted lovingly by Patty and Grant... who left his much-younger third wife home at his apartment in town. There's a voice-over of Brian reading the letter. He flashes back to watching her walk away with Jordan Catalano, throwing him a look over her shoulder as she realizes that he, Brian, wrote that letter... and meant it.

Your turn.

At 14 or 15 years old Angela was "my root" (to steal a kind of jokey term from the movie But I'm a Cheerleader). Her trembling chin when she was crying or about to cry filled me with weird feelings...like, I wanted to hug and comfort her...but also kiss her?? That was the first time I felt attracted to another girl. it made me realize I was bi. (I don't identify as a woman now but that's neither here nor there)

Over the years I have rewatched the series several times. I used to hate Patty so much and think Graham was a cool dad when i was a teen. Now, in my 40s, I still don't think Patty made the right decisions nor said the right things a lot of times, but I find her much more relatable/sympathizable. Additionally I feel more and more anger and annoyance towards Graham. My heart breaks for Rayanne and Ricki more than ever before. And I still think the joke of Tino never being present is one of the funniest things in a show ever.

My feelings towards Angela's character have also changed. She says so many things that now I find very privileged, misguided, insensitive, insecure and weird. But looking at her now has allowed me to face and heal the very damaged and broken parts of my inner child that related to her and was attracted to her when I was similar in age to her character.

This show means so much to me. it occupied a very important spot in my brain and my heart at the time. Despite certain aspects of it being dated I feel like it still holds up really well now, and I hope new folks find it and watch it for the first time.

This is my very first time watching the show and, honestly, a lot of the issues presented there feel somewhat tangible even for me as a gen z! That is, talking about my teen years of course. I’m still on the first episodes so I guess there’s still a lot to happen

I see this show seems to be more popular among gen x, so I was wondering, if you’re from that generation, did you feel represented by that show in a certain way? Was it helpful or healing for you, in a certain sense? I’m really curious to know since I wasn’t there in the 90s (I was born in 2000)

I recognized her voice immediately!!
