r/OuterBanksNetflix

Sometimes I question how they got this far...

>!I'm a new watcher so I'm on season 2 after Sarah gets shot on Nassau. How Tf did they get this far. I know I know it's a TV show but like damn Kiara why tf would you scream murderer when Ward JUST shot someone who currently has a gun... I get it you want justice and your beyond pissed but seriously... Why would you give away the position and why are yelling go go giving away your position? !<

>!John B having zero idea where the gold would be goes into a home to find the gold that will very obviously be locked up...!<

>!Seriously how did they even find the gold in the first place.!<

>!I'm also just not a huge fan of John B, I just don't care for him and Sarah. Maybe that's just me.!<

Again, I. Know. It's. A. Tv. Show I just stare at the screen going seriously.

What happened behind scenes based off this tik tok video?

Hi, I'm new to Outer Banks and not sure what the BTS is. It's a video of Off Campus saying "chat please don't ruin them." Which does Stephen who plays Dean and Mika who plays Allie. Then another video of Rudy who JJ then Madison who plays Kiara.

Based off the comment I'm assuming it had to do with people shipping the couples. But it seems to go deeper?

Also can we normalize NOT shipping every actor with the counter actor who are ACTING. Seriously can we just realize that a lot of actors are in a relationship with someone else. Seriously it's sad.

season 4 question about jj and the writing

I know I’m late but I finished watching it after finding out season 5 is coming out this year but I just wanted to ask why jj was killed off, was there some kind of issue going on with the actor? the way he was killed off was really poor writing for so many reasons, anyone with a brain writing it would know that jj wouldn’t let his guard down around his dad after he tried to kill him once already, plus the death is generally unsatisfying because it’s directly tied to him being kind and not a result of finally pushing his luck too far. The lead up to it was so bad it was actually quite funny, ki and him being separated because he took off his goggles to let some sand in his eyes and ki decided to keep running and just so happened to bump into jjs dad, like cmon if it was a planned death I seriously doubt they would do such a bad job of it unless it was rushed or new writers took over or something, so yeah does anyone know what actually happened for jj to be poorly killed off ?

Any theories if they will bring him back? They spoke a lot about the crown granting wishes, if the writings got this bad it’s not too far fetched to think they will just do a 180 and turn completely fantasy lmao

Some of jj’s decisions were stupid but necessary

I’m gonna play a little bit of devil’s advocate here, and say that jj pulling that gun in the pilot was kind of necessary. Because though it was dramatic to be pulling out a whole ass gun, topper was so gonna drown John b and no one was doing anything about it. If jj didn’t pull out the gun, he might’ve actually drowned him. Doing something is better than nothing.

I haven’t rewatched the show in a while, so I can’t think of any dumb but necessary things that he did, but looking past his stupid-ness, he always tried to come up with solutions to “fix” things, never sat on his ass and did nothing. And he really was the only one concerned with keeping all of them together, and very concerned with defending them. I’m curious to see what happens with them in season 5 without him, because it can’t be good, he was the glue of the group. I feel like they’ll separate a lot, or not at all because of what happened when they did and Jj died.

It's the Goonies , Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew w/ nicer scenery.

Find the show "entertaining" --treasure questing, lots of ocean and warm days, boat---willing suspension of disbelief--like most things--required. It's not "deep" but it's done well enough. Ensemble/Friendship/Loyalty themes. PG rating.

What could’ve happened between jj and Luke?

They never said who jj thought his mom was, or why Luke turned out to be so bad in the end. Because in the flashback scenes there was one where Groff asked Luke if he can take care of a baby and Luke said guess I’d be as good as anyone. So he thought he could take care of jj, and he was good with him in the flashback scenes when jj was little, so what changed?

In season one after Luke and Jj returned from the police station, and back home, Luke screamed that Jj was a peice of shit and that “your momma knew”. So who the hell did jj think was him mom???? Im so curious. I don’t understand how you could spend a whole episode on a character and not really go into details beyond his dad killed his mom and gave him away to the mechanic. Okay and? So what happened with the mechanic?

I don’t like how she did Topper.

Sarah was wrong for that. I’m not even mad that he burned the house down because why? They played in his face. He’s not my favorite person but she used him because she knew how he felt about her. Wack.

Rafe is beyond annoying.

Rafe is the perfect example of someone who talks way more than they listen. And the results are jarring. Einstein melted the cross. Even his dad was like ain’t no way you’re serious. I’m ready for someone to take that garbage out. FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY. Somebody please! How do you kill JJ & keep Rafe? I’m ready to fast forward through all his scenes. That’s how much I hate his dumb ass.

JJ and Cleo?

Now I don’t know how true this is or if it’s even confirmed but it makes logical sense in my mind so ima run with it. So word on the street is that Cleo and jj were supposed to be a couple originally but due to fan reaction they moved away from pope and Kiara to make the jiara ship happen and you can’t just leave pope hanging so might aswell make Cleo popes love interest and I’m not mad at that I’d be pissed if they left pope hanging like that. Now imagine if they never caved into the fan request and continued popara and apply the same logic for jj. You can’t just leave unarguably your most popular pogue member and probably just outer banks most popular character in general hanging like that so what’s the most logical conclusion? Jleo. Come on you can’t tell me you wouldn’t love to see that and I might be biased cause jj is definitely my favorite male pogue member and Cleo is arguably my favorite female member it’s between her and Kiara (Sarah was pissing me tf off a little S3 which is where I’m at). Then again the writers aren’t the best at this coupling thing it seems like so who knows

Why did they look like that?

In the motorcycle race, Jj’s lips were blue, rafe and Sarah’s too. It looked so weird to me on the first watch, like they’re all tanned as hell and wearing summer clothes but then their lips are blue?

I think I read or seen somewhere that when they shot that scene it was cold. I’m not sure though, but if that’s true how they hell were they not shaking if their lips were blue like that? That’s impressive.

Jj/pope is the best ship

I got into this show early 2021, a little before season 2 came out, and I’ve always loved jj and pope’s friendship, especially in season 1. They seemed the closest out of all of them.

I also like how Jj tried to get Kiara with pope, because he knew pope liked her and he thought pope was good. I just didn’t like how the writers later made them weird to each other because of Kiara. (I also don’t like how in season 4 when jj told pope on that boat that he would’ve rather been shot, pope didn’t do anything about it. At least not from what we saw).

-jj tells pope he loves him more than the other pogues.

-pope hugged jj after jj told him what his dad did to him at midsummers, and was worried about him.

-they wear the same damn shirts.

-Jj’s also so protective of him along the seasons and puts his life on the line for him.

-and Jj took the fault for him (I’ve always though it was weird how Jj cared most about pope’s scholarship, since he took the fall so pope can go to college, while the others didn’t really care as much).

-then pope went to Jail and ruined his future just for Jj in season 4 which Jj felt really bad about, like how pope felt bad in season 1.

-when pope said “let me protect you for once” in season 4.

-this is kind of stretch here, but jj told john b in season 1 that when Kiara kissed him on the cheek it was because she liked him. Then jj kissed pope on the cheek two episodes later.

-jj also told topper he was willing to go to prison for pope in season three when they were trying to get the cross back.

-and the obvious: they have opposite personalities so it works.

I swear they are so cute, and had the best chemistry by far except for maybe John b and Sarah. They could’ve been such a great couple, in an alternate universe maybe, because clearly Netflix wasn’t interested in them (and I don’t think jj and pope swing that way but they COUDVE BEEN).

They’re cute as friends too I guess, and I know jj is selfless and loyal with all the pogues really, but he was most with pope.

All over the place Season 3 thoughts

It was all over the place and maybe a little rushed and some characters and character dynamics sucked but it was entertaining. Im just wondering what could possibly be in stored to justify a 4th and 5th season seemed like the a good way to end and is it even worth watching s4? Probably would’ve been 100 times better if big John was actually dead he was really annoying and they spent decent amount of time on that relationship with him and John b basically separating and dividing the group. Like I was sick of him, John b and the group was tired of him, even the fans are tired of him from what I’ve seen. New couples gave nothing. I can see why people ship riara lol they had better chemistry and tension in that one episode where they were trapped by Singh than jiara had the entire season. I liked Cleo and pope wish the spent more time on them. Don’t really know much about rafe and Sofia she was just there. Sarah and topper pissed me off hella this season especially topper man the dude is kind of a idiot I can’t lie I feel bad for his mother for having to deal with him. I don’t wanna see any more of that bs dynamic on my screen. I wanted more of rafe and Barry probably my favorite duo of the show and two of my favorite characters. Feels like rafe came a long way from season 1 man. What happened to wheezie and Caroline man. John b is John b nothing much. Kinda all over the place I just finished season 3 these are my immediate thoughts but yeah could’ve been better all happened fast and is s4 even worth watching I’m actually curious cause that’s seemed like the right ending to the show.
