Holderness Family

[Anonymous]

I haven’t seen today’s video but I come across their stuff on Facebook sometimes and in this era of horror stories about influencer kids being exploited I always appreciate that I basically never see their kids these days. Like I don’t love that they used their kids to make their brand originally but I appreciate that they seemed to have pulled way back on that at least.

I agree I liked their stuff at first but now I find it trying to hard. They are probably trying to make money from their videos so there’s probably pressure.

I don’t like how they use their kids in their videos. Just by having them in them for such broad public consumption, it just seems exploitative and wrong.

Also, their house is typical Raleigh/Durham Style Love it or List it House porn for us DC area folks who are living in 1/2 the size house for twice the price.

He’s in his 40’s, I find it surprising he was in acapella groups in college. That really wasn’t a thing in the 90’s.

Huh? Maybe it wasn't mainstream with Hollywood movies about it, but it was definitely a thing in the 90s.

Yeah, try outs were fierce for the acapella groups at my SLAC in 1993.

He and I overlapped at UVA. Acapella was absolutely a huge thing in the 90s with competitive tryouts, groupies, etc. Pitch Perfect was late to the party.

Haha, all those posters who didn’t think acapella was a thing definitely were not at UVA in the 90s!

(We must have overlapped, PP)

I was at Maryland from 1995-1999. There were two coed acapella groups, one all-male and one all-female. They had all been around for a while.

Same! I was at Maryland from 1996-2000 and went to so many Generics, Faux Paz and Treble Makers concerts!

So dumb, imo

Gawd those people are tiresome attention-seeking hacks.

I went to VT, but even I know about the Hullabahoos. There was a female one too, but the Hullabahoos were a huge draw!

Also, the movie Pitch Perfect did not come from nowhere people. If you frame the Holderness Family in that lense, it all makes sense.

I think they are harmless entertainment. They took their kids out of it and I think that was the right call.

‘91 grad here. They were a significant part of my undergrad experience. My school had multiple groups and I went to many shows that they put on.

+1

Definitely a thing

I'm not big into comedy in general, but occasionally they have a video that is spot on and completely hilarious.

I also think that coming up with new and fresh comedic content on a regular basis is way harder than it looks. Good for them.

Well, previously they were professional journalists, so they are less hacky, imo, than most youtubers and the like.

I agree. I enjoy many of their videos. I loved them during COVID. So spot on.

Totally. When I heard about them I figured I wouldn't like the content but I was won't. Especially from the perspective of living with a highly creative ADHD spouse, they just get some things right!

I had never heard of them before The Amazing Race, and I was prepared to hate them based on their description as "internet personalities." But they were good racers, endearing, and invariably kind to each other. (Or they got a good edit.) Since then, I've checked out some of their videos and although I think he would be exhausting to be around all the time, I thought some of them were pretty funny. (The "We Don't Talk About Covid" really hit home.)
