Also, you have to appreciate what she brought to the conversation in terms of the shame, if not sense of being uncomfortable, girls have during puberty. Though Gina didn’t get the full experience Jessie did in season 1, it was nice for Missy to not be the only non-white character featured (I have no idea what Jay is). Even good, if you look at it from a certain point of view.Ĭonnie Being Assigned To Nick As His Hormone Monster Giving us, like how Big Mouth often does, normalizing scary emotions or feelings and making them not only be normal, but shown as necessary. It is the shame wizard which gives them some kind of survival skills, if not social skills, so that they don’t ruin their relationships. When the Hormone Monsters allow the kids to go off their rocker, the Shame Wizard is the one who gives them back some form of morality or restraint. One which has no one but him working in it compared to the Hormone Monsters who have an entire floor.Īnd it is with him talking to Andrew, after torturing everyone in Andrew’s grade, you realize how necessary shame is. One isolated by his fellow hormone and life peers to a basement office. Despite him torturing all the kids, in the end, we learn he is really just a lonely being. Yes, some characters are mean, but no one is an absolute villain for everyone is humanized. On Big Mouth, there aren’t really villains. Highlights Acknowledging Shame Isn’t All Bad So outside of being caught masturbating, she doesn’t have a storyline to speak of. As for Missy? Well, she is around but isn’t the major player she was in season 1. Steve ends up Jay’s Gary, a father figure messing around with his mom, and Jay learns, thanks to Matthew, and a seat cushion, that he is bi-sexual. A girl who is one of the first to really blossom in her grade and deals with the awkwardness of that.Īs for everyone else? Well, Jessie is still dealing with her parents breaking up, in the worse way possible. Nick, on the other hand, he is dealing with being a late bloomer, not getting a stable Hormone Monster, until he ends up with Connie, and dealing with the ups and downs of his relationship with Gina.
At least, until he realizes how shame helps balance him out. Andrew, a long-established kid whose depravity fuels his horniness, is introduced to the Shame Wizard and he wrecks his life. Life doesn’t get any easier for the characters of Big Mouth.
