My Ranking of the Starkid Musicals including spies are forever, even though it's tcb, because it's amazing and underrated. (I don't dislike any of their musicals I think they're amazing and this is my personal opinion so I hope this doesn't offend anyone.) Enjoy <3

13. Me and my dick

•

I mean technically this is the oldest Starkid musical so it's the worst quality but also it's kind of uncomfortable to watch. Although it's still got some great music, memes and comedy. And AJ Holmes as Joey's heart is just fantastic.

12. Black Friday

•

Black Friday had a much higher budget than their other musicals that I feel they were biting off more than they could chew. It just wasn't up to usual Starkid standards. The plot and storyline was hard to follow, I wasn't fond of the songs or the characters except for Linda Monroe, she carried the whole thing.

11. A Very Potter Senior Year

•

"IT'S A VERY POTTER SENIOR YEAR, SENIOR YEAR. WE'RE NOT JUST KIDS ANYMOOOORRRREEEEE!" Sorry that's stuck in my head on repeat. Obviously this wasn't as great as it could of been cuz they had very little time to rehearse, but I do appreciate the casting. Like AJ and Darren and Evanna Lynch?? Like hello?? Anyway yeah the acting wasn't up to usual standard but the way they improvised created some hilarious moments. Also it has very good music. Like sidekick cmon.

10. Holy musical b@tman

•

I do give credit to this musical cuz I don't like DC superhero stuff at all, but I still really enjoyed this. Even though I only recognized some characters and probably didn't understand any Batman references I still think this show is great. It's funny, well directed and has some great songs. Also Brolden had an amazing performance.

9. Ani: A parody

•

Ani is extremely underrated and, in my opinion, for no reason. People complain that there's not the 'classic' casting, but I think everyone were amazing and it was casted really well. Also the thing about the actors not singing. Like we got Clark and Peirce. They KILLED it. I think Ani has some of the best songs and is arguably one of the funniest starkid musicals. The jokes are delivered brilliantly and even made me (who btw hates star wars) laugh. I mean Nick Lang is absolutely brilliant aswell. It deserves more recognition so if you haven't seen it, please go watch it.

8. A very potter musical

•

I'm gonna get flamed for not ranking it higher. I mean this is the classic. It's my and probably most people's introduction to Starkid, so that's why it's special. This also has birthed so many memes and jokes, I could reference it all day. The songs are classic, the acting (especially lauren) is on point, it's hilarious and you can always go back to it. It's just so rewatchable. And quirrelmort. That's all.

7. Trail to Oregon

•

This is so brilliantly written, Jeff Blim did such a good job. It's absolutely hilarious. The fact the musical is made from improv and breaking the forth wall is honestly genius. It's got amazing acting despite the whole point of the musical, the songs are great and it's probably the one Starkid musical I would most wanted to see live.

6. A very potter sequel

•

In my opinion this is the best of the very potter trilogy. The characters are better, like Lucius, Umbridge, Remus. The songs are funny, classic and great. There isn't really much to say about it, it's a classic Starkid show.

5. Spies are forever

•

This show is so well written. The comedy is so raw and natural, like there aren't any cringey or over exaggerated bits, just subtle yet effective humor. Also Tatiana and Curt's relationship is one of my favourites ever. I love how they took the mick out of cliche heteronormality and instead created an openly gay main character without the main focus being their sexuality. And the soundtrack is AMAZING like it's so good.

4. Firebringer

•

I really don't understand the hate for Firebringer. I think it's a really interesting and fun concept and it works really well as a comedy musical. And speaking of which it's a comedy and it definitely achieves that. I do think this movie is funny, with the general jokes, the forth wall breaking and schoopsie is honestly comedy gold. I also love how realistically they portayed art in this with comments like 'I can't draw feet' and 'well this one sucks'. I just thought the whole thing was very clever. Starkid really said Bisexual rights.

3. Starship

Reached the 10 photo limit :'(( I HATE TUMBLR.

•

Is it possible to have a comfort musical? Because this is mine. It's just so authentic to watch. There are good villains without loads of motif and trauma just a bug who likes to kill people and a person who like to kill bugs. The protagonist is lovable with good passion and a dream. In fact all the characters are memorable and interesting. It's not the funniest StarKid production I've seen but some jokes really hit like especially the one with Commander Up and Bug. And I love the songs too. It's just a well rounded, overall great show.

2. The guy who didn't like musicals

•

I know this might be basic but this musical is great. The whole thing is very clever with all of Paul's comments about 'never being in a musical' is brilliant. Also we have a few new cast members like Jon and Maria which was really nice and refreshing. All the characters are interesting and lovable in some way, with very fun and well portrayed interactions. The songs aren't my favorite but they are VERY catchy with a few amazing exceptions like Show stoppin number and Not your seed. The humour is really good and the acting is astounding like they don't get enough credit. Lauren, Corey, Jon and many others had such a great performance and they did a great job with the choreography. If you haven't seen it I would definitely recommend.

1. Twisted

•

Welp we all saw this one coming. Where do I even begin with Twisted? It's phenomenal. Lots of StarKid shows are still very good quality but I usually just watch them for the humour which is the main focus of the plays but Twisted is the whole package. It's so good I would rank it in my favourite musicals ever, not just StarKid. For a start the characters are amazing. Jafar is definitely my favourite, Dylan does such a good job. He creates a humorous character yet still evokes so much emotion he's such a deep character it's amazing. Also oh my god, Dylan's voice in this musical is phenomenal. And where is his oscar? Which leads me into the music. StarKid usually comes up solid with their music, they have amazing lyricists but Twisted's songs are on a new level. They range from absolutely hilarious and catchy like No one Remembers Achmed, to charmingly beautiful like A Thousand and One Nights to brilliantly deep and meaningful bangers like If I Believed. They really knocked it out of the park, the songs can be extremely funny like Take off your clothes which is litterly a re-written version of A whole new world to highlight Disney's sexual undertones. (Like that's genius). But can also be powerfully emotional like The power in me which lead me to tears. Wow I've been rambling which just shows how good this musical is so go watch it. Today. Thank you <3.

That was my ranking thank you for reading, if you can't tell I adore everything about this silly yet amazing group of people. Make sure to look for more rankings and other StarKid content from me. Satan is a real man goodbye <3

I'm never posting this. Can you remember this, Alexa?

I hate my guts like you wouldn’t believe.

I hate my piece of shit memory. I hate my lack of motivation. I hate that I hide myself behind a facade of happiness. I hate my low self esteem, it’s lower than the width of a needle. I hate my lack of ambition. I hate that I'm shit at school. I hate my suicidal thoughts. I hate my inability to speak about emotions and my suicidal thoughts to my parents. I hate that I’m a piece of shit daughter. I hate that I self harm just to feel something. I hate that I have no emotion. I hate that I’m unresponsive in most occasions. I hate that I can’t explain my feelings when needed to. I hate my anxiety. I hate that I lie so no one is worried and stressed over me. I hate thAT IM A FUCKING IDIOT WHO DOESNT DESERVE HER LIFE. I HATE ME.

If I could go back in time when I was ten years old, I would tell myself how much of a fucking dumbass I was for self harming and thinking suicide was a great idea. Even though I still fucking do.

I can’t fix myself. I’m unfixable. I accidentally barge in serious conversations when I didn’t mean to. I say something but I say it in the wrong way and someone thinks I hate them when I don’t. I hate my stuttering. I hate my maternal grandfather because he’s an idiot too. I hate that I made my parents think I care about other people more than them. I love my parents. But since I’m unemotional and unresponsive I can’t convince them enough to to believe it.

You know who deserves Alexa? No one. Not her parents. Not her friends. No o n e. Because she puts them through such unbearable pain and suffering. She doesn’t belong on this Earth. She doesn’t belong anywhere. She makes everyone’s lives a living fucking hell.

I’m shit aT LIFE. I’m sorry mom and dad for not listening and not following through and not becoming what you wanted me to be. I’m sorry six year old me for making you experience how horrible I am. I’m sorry Psych for being a horrible friend and overall annoying. You don’t deserve me. I’m sorry Jen for not talking to you more. I’m sorry Mayhem for forgetting about writing things and just overall being clingy. I’m sorry Grace for not getting into anime enough for you. I’m sorry Squint for being so awkward and annoying. I’m sorry Liam for messing up and ruining conversations. I’m sorry Dylan for ignoring you. I’m sorry Logan for not telling you I added you on Skype. I’m sorry everyone who has ever met me for being shitty at everything and annoying and for ruining your lives.

I’m not special to anybody. No one needs me.

I'm not valuable to anyone and I never will be.
