Something something Amazon cancelling A League of Their Own but continuing to use the characters and premise to advertise for a Capital One credit card. MAX cancelling Our Flag Means Death yet trying to use the show to draw in subscribers during Pride. We live in a capitalist hellhole. Stories are worth so much more than the dollar amount they can generate.

A doodle of Stede to get some emotions out... I'm still fucking depressed y'all

MY TEENAGER’S ARTFULLY BAKED MESSAGE ON THIS DAY OF OFMD CANCELLATION FINALITY

The cake is coffee infused dark chocolate with Bailey’s frosting. It’s very, very good. 🤤

fucking hell! We are in the BAD PLACE! This is what MAX is putting on instead of good shows. Lowest common denominator. They hate us all!

“The phrase with which he described television—a “vast wasteland”—would stick, cementing the speech in the annals of rhetoric. (The person who came up with the phrase was journalist John Bartlow Martin.)”

Here’s what I don’t get. Okay.

If entire communities have made it a yearly habit to watch Over The Garden Wall during the fall season, multiple times, whose fucking decision was it to scrub it from (almost) all streaming services??? What is the point of streaming services if you take away the stuff people actually rewatch in place of…… what? Another reality show which is a take on a different reality show which was based on a different reality show??

Unsubscribe from hbo max, fuck them. If you can't watch anymore pirates you'll become one

[blablablabla-ur-mom]

Ok, I just read the part where Pip paints 'RAPIST I WILL GET YOU' on Max's house and....Chills literally fucking chills I don't know who this pip is but I love her and I cant wait to see what she does next.

All those missing scenes are destroying me. I'll fess up I was one of those people who grumbled a bit that Ed/Stede's relationship just wasn't doing it for me like it did in S1, it just felt like there was too much missing, not enough of those short adorable wholesome romantic moments full of little things that mean so much and show so much without even telling... I just couldn't understand at first, S1 proved the writers knew what they were doing, it was much too good to be just a fluke, an accidental success.

When the news about the slashed budget came out, the answer became clear, and those missing scenes just keep confirming it. We LITERALLY got robbed. We had amazing, dedicated writers who knew their shit and still got it, equally amazing and dedicated cast who just wanted to do their best, and they weren't allowed to deliver the story they wanted to deliver because of greedy clueless fucking top management.

"You know how hard it is to find someone doing something original out here? It's impossible, man."

I'm just so fucking sad. This was such a gorgeous, wildly inventive show -- the only show in a long time that I actually gave a shit about, that made me feel art of this scale was still possible, that thawed my fucking glacial heart, that brought me back here to seek community to rejoice in it and in the fucking enormous universe of fanworks it spawned, that moved me toward making art again.

[epersonae]

Yeah yeah yeah it's just a TV show but I've had this whole series of hurts (physical and emotional) and disappointments lately, and my creative spirit was fucking suffering, and I just wanted this thing to happen, that seemed likely to happen, to resolve all the unresolved threads, to have something fun to look forward to. Idk. Fucking sucks

[amarshmallownamedo]

Not so gentle reminder that blaming writers, crew members, and cast is EXACTLY what the hbo max studio execs want. Remember the solidarity we held with writers and actors?? That doesn't stop just because the strikes are over!

if you want to blame someone for canceling the gay pirate show, blame the execs. Fuck them

[chicadcc]

Time to say goodbye

[whimprone]

If the finale is really only 30 minutes long I'm going to cry. That's just not enough time to tell this story.
