Skam Italia was the first remake, and the first time I set my alarm to go off at all hours of the night to stay up to date with a new clip I could only understand 2 words of. For several seasons. Heck, boring gay Martino is still my profile pic here and I have refused to ever change it.
Skamita holds a big part of my soul. And I didn't let myself properly feel how deep until it got cancelled and then came back to life for Sana's season.
And now after a long break, we have Elia's season announced. And suprise, suprise, just seeing the new teaser and the new stills made me tear up. Not just tear up but overflow! Just seeing those old, glorious faces again after so long... It hit hard in the best way. Like seeing old friends again. And all the in-jokes flooded back (both with the characters and with fandom).
Needless to say, I am SO freaking excited for S5 to start in September! (Even if again I will only understand 2 words. XD)
Martino Rametta (Federic Cesari) coming out to his mom (SKAM Italia). This scene wasn’t in SKAM OG, obviously since we don’t know or see Isak’s mom in OG, but that scene broke my heart. It hit too close to home, but Federico’s acting was stellar in this scene, honestly. I’m still shook everytime I watch it.

I keep seeing those "skam italia had the audacity to make me tear up to an elettra lamborghini song (pem pem)" posts and honestly? Their minds. And pietro turanos mind.
Because i can see so clearly that, filippos character, hes so bubbly and fun, so casual and charismatic, he always has a witty comeback and always puts on trashy music - but deep down hes something else entirely. And this makes me fall so hard for this character. Hes so profoundly lonely. There is such a massive emptiness, a huge void hes constantly trying to fill.
When we saw him this season he was constantly alone. Alone at home, alone without his sister, alone alone alone. And the people we see him hang out with are his little sisters friends. Of course, theyre his friends too, but imagine being him, and feeling this burning loneliness, and then hanging out with these people and loving them and remembering that youll always be eles brother to them.
This loneliness theme would be absolutely amazing for a season, and the contrast between that and the bubbly way filo presents himself would be insane. I have feels just from s4, cant imagine what a filippo main season would do to me.
Anyway filippo testing himself for hiv, alone in his empty house, without a parent or a sister or a friends shoulder to cry on - set to upbeat club music - fucking destroyed me.
