Big Mouth: A Harrowing Ordeal of Emotional Brutality (series retrospectives and discussion megathread) Spoiler

42 Upvotes

Welcome to the after-party. The show's over, the credits have rolled, but we're all still here. Emotionally hungover.

8 seasons, 1 special (My Furry Valentine), and 2 seasons of a spin off. We've had a good run. 101 total episodes, if you count HR, too. As has been mentioned before, that is actually exceedingly rare for a Netflix original. The next longest running Netflix adult animation, BoJack Horseman, had 6 seasons/77 episodes.

Feel free to share your predictions for the series/universe future, too! Do you think there will ever be a Big Mouth movie? Or a season 9? Or a "20 years later" style flash forward?

If you're going to rewatch the series, feel free to comment in the episode discussion thread for every episode, using the links below to get to their episode discussion threads!

Mod Announcement [Meta] Should Mating Season related posts be allowed in r/BigMouth? Spoiler

17 Upvotes

I'm sorry for dropping the ball. I've been unwell recently, and to be honest completely forgot about Mating Season.

A few complaints have been sent in via modmail about the influx of Mating Season related posts (as well as a handful of reports). I had intended to host a poll about whether they should be allowed prior to MS's release, but it slipped my mind.

So, should posts related to Mating Season be allowed in Big Mouth?

Majority rules. And whichever option (besides "results/no opinion") gets the most votes will be clarified in the rules.

(To clarify the last 2 options: option 4 would mean any posts made about Mating Season prior to the end of this poll will be allowed to remain, but any new posts would be removed [with an exception for major news, such as renewals or cancellation announcements. Option 5 would mean that all the posts regarding Mating Season from the last few days would be removed. The trailer and announcement posts would be allowed to stay. In option 6, all Mating Season related posts would be removed and forbidden, including the announcement and trailers etc)

Open to additional suggestions. I'll also create episode discussion threads in r/MatingSeasonNetflix tomorrow and gently guide people towards them

664 votes, May 29 '26
253 Yes, Mating Season posts should be allowed, subject to the normal rules
106 Only major news should be allowed. Episode Discussion threads should be created for general discussion.
113 I'm neutral or just want to see the results
112 No, Mating Season posts should no longer be allowed going forward. Major news exempt
36 No, Mating Season posts should no longer be allowed AND past posts should be removed. major news exempt
44 No, Mating Season posts should not be allowed under any circumstances, and all historical posts should be removed

General Discussion In retrospect, I'm glad Pete's last major role in this franchise was in the Caleb episode. Caleb's on the spectrum and he likes things to be in order, so it totally made sense for Pete to be present.

Also, does anyone else think Panic! At the Mall is one of the best Big Mouth episodes? Its portrayal of Caleb was EXCELLENT and a far cry from most neurodivergent portrayals in media. As a fellow person on the spectrum, I felt seen in this episode.

General Discussion was anyone else the PERFECT age demographic for the show?

19 Upvotes

my bday is november 2005, so the first season released just a few months before i turned 12 (september 2017). i had the great blessing of being there from the beginning, AND growing with the show. when i watched it younger it was so perfect because it matched my ridiculous tween humor AND my special interest in puberty, and it's perfect now because when i rewatch it as an adult i can feel like that age again. bonus is watching it high, PERFECT show to watch high. did anyone else also watch it from the beginning or otherwise grow with the show? it is surreal

General Discussion Hormone monsters for other characters.

21 Upvotes

I’ve noticed in “Big Mouth” that the only characters we’ve seen with hormone monsters are Andrew, Jessi, Nick, Missy, Matthew, Caleb, Coach Steve, Leah, Danni, and Elijah.

If Jay, Lola, and all of the other characters in the series had hormone monsters, who would it be?

General Discussion What would a Big Mouth spin off be like?

Post image
30 Upvotes

I think it would be called large Mouth or Big Mouth college it will be placed 4 years after the ending of Big mouth season 8 Jessie, Missy, nick, Andrew, and Jay would go to George town University and the main problems would be Andrew and Nick trying to get girlfriends, Missy advocating for the black community, Jessie trying to pass the bar to become a lawyer and try to help Missy with her advocating, and Jay would probably be like the Chandler of the group there for funny gags and bits with the cast but also trying to figure out his love life.

What do y'all think?

General Discussion What Does Featuring Ludacris Mean to All of You?

9 Upvotes

I feel as though there is some sort of meaning behind his character. I know it’s supposed to be funny and all, but he just seems like he sort of guides the characters when they really need him.


r/BigMouth • • 13d ago

General Discussion Remember early on when Coach Steve was one of the best characters? I struggle to remember anything funny he said or did in the latter half of this series. Sure, there were probably one or two amusing lines, but compared to how entertaining he was in the first few seasons, it was a major downgrade.

General Discussion What are some plot points that you feel didn't go anywhere and/or were abandoned?

21 Upvotes

I really dug Gina and Lola's chemistry in Season 2. They somewhat continued it in My Furry Valentine, but after that, it's liked that moment between them never happened. I also liked Coach Steve and Jay's friendship, but other than that one summer school bullying episode, they barely interacted after Season 3. And I've already talked extensively about they shat all over Greg Glaser's character after Season 2. Same goes for Coach Steve in the later seasons. Any more examples?
