i get it. you fucking love the guy and he fucking loves you.

i love how the daybreak's characters' narration styles in their respective episodes tell so much about their arcs and personalities

josh does full fourth wall breaks because he's self involved and wants the audience's full attention

angelica only uses voiceover because she doesn't want to be completely vulnerable with the audience

wesley gets someone else to narrate for him because he can't face his own actions

crumble doesn't initially get to narrate and has her story told to her through a script. she only gets to narrate herself when she remembers what happened to her

sam never narrates and only gets to tell her story through how she has been percieved by other characters. the only scene she has completely to herself is covering up the damage that josh has done onto her in the bathroom mirror

Adults had one stupid job: to teach us how to be good people. But adults are the most selfish assholes of all! And the worst part is, we don’t get our chance to grow up and fuck up the world ourselves!

Josh wheeler: the older brother who somehow became the leader of the other three and has no idea how he did it

Wesley Fists: the middle child who tries to keep the peace the gay middle child also likes to get high

Eli cardashyan: the cocky, sassy 2nd youngest sibling he's a shit head but the other 3 love him also just stumbled across the others and decided to stick around but if asked he says he's being kept around by force

Angelica Green: the youngest sister who lives for setting things on fire and loves being a problem for others says she hates the other 3 but would protect them if they were in trouble

Found siblings in a zombie apocalypse

[froggos-are-superior]

The duality of Daybreak will never cease to amaze me. I mean, on one hand, the whole show is basically just a giant shit post. But on the other hand, it touches on some really deep and personal topics. The kind of show that has you crying laughing, if you will.

They'll have this scene with Josh where he's like

I GOTTA CUT OFF MY FINGER MAN I DONT WANNA BE A ZOMBIE

And then Angelica walks in and is like

WHAT THE FUCK MAN THIS ISNT THE WALKING DEAD, THE ZOMBIE BITES DO NOTHING

And Josh is just staring at his severed finger like man oh man.

Topics

The entire show is filled with scenes like that but it also addresses things such as

Bullying

Morality

Complex parent relationships

The struggle to fit in

Mental illness

Homophobia

Loneliness

Grief

Sacrifice

A breakdown of the manic pixie dream girl trope

Realizing that maybe you aren't a good person

Having to choose the lesser of two evils

Having to choose between being true to yourself and being the person everyone wants from you

And one of the best parts is that, yes, they do fuck up. A character makes a decision and maybe it was the wrong one. Maybe actions do have consequences. Sometimes they learn from those mistakes. Sometimes they don't. I like this. It makes it feel like an accurate depiction of a human being.

They show everyone as fucking idiots, but every episode has a different character's backstory, narrated by themselves. It makes you realize that even if you think someone's a dick, sometimes there are things going on in their lives that you just can't know about.

Episodes

(Some of who narrates each episode for context):

Josh- Josh vs. the Apocalypse Part 1, Schmuck Bait!, Post Mates

One of the things most apparent from Josh's perspective, is that he loves Samaira Dean. All we ever see are good things about her. But as the plot drags on, it starts to become apparent that maybe Josh's narration is unreliable, warped.

Angelica- The Slime Queenpin of Glendale, CA

Angelica's story is a bit funny, bordering on concerning. It's clear however, that she didn't have the best childhood and all she really wants is a friend, or someone who won't leave her behind.

Wesley- Homecoming Redux or My So Called Stunt Double Life

I could go on forever about Wesley's episode, but the main dilemma is that Wesley needs to pick between two people he loves. Sam advises him to ignore both options- to pick himself instead. It really makes you think that he did too. But in the end, he made a decision and now has to live with the guilt of what he did. Present-day, he's faced with a similar situation once again, and he doesn't know how to make the right decision.

Ms. Crumble- Canta Tu Vida

Ms. Crumble was a tragic character. Her backstory reflected that as well. She had so much character growth as the series went on and I was in tears during the finale.

I honestly have no idea what I was originally going for here but at this point it's pretty much just a Daybreak themed mess. Bon appetit.

i just finished daybreak and i only have one thing on my mind.

WHY TF DID THEY KILL ELI??? HE WAS THE MOST ENTERTAINING CHARACTER IN THE SHOW WTF

and the way that he died???? could they have made his death any more pathetic???? I AM SO MAD HE DESERVED A HEROIC DEATH

objectively this show is really good (smart writing, decent actors, brilliant plot) BUT AFTER ELI DIED I WAS LITERALLY SO UNINTERESTED. 

eli and ms crumble were the only characters i cared about so when ms crumble “died” i was actually about to lose my shit.
