#I Am not okay with this

guilty, your honour~

Gay people will be like “this is my comfort show!” And then show you the most emotionally devastating, stress-inducing, tragic piece of media you have ever witnessed

Me when something LGBTQ+ happens in the LGBTQ+ series with the LGBTQ+ characters that I watch because they are LGBTQ+ and have LGBTQ+ characters: 🤯

Hi queer fans of queer stuff! How are we feeling with today's TV industry? How about really bloody angry?

Look, the recent cancelation of Dead Boy Detectives is obviously personal for its fandom, but it's also one more nail in the coffin and I think we have to start doing something about it together.

I went through this with Sense8. With Our Flag Means Death. With smaller but also amazing shows like The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself. Not to mention when it's not cancelled yet but it's boycotted with seasons cut in half or zero marketing. *I am tired*.

If you are too, I ask you to join the campaign. This is specifically about increasing views and attention, not because Netflix is necessarily going to change their minds (we know that's unlikely), but because we want to prove that we exist as a group.

So even if you don't feel like actually watching right now, we ask you to give it a stream if you have a Netflix account, with headphones connected or low volume. If you don't have a Netflix account, and honestly good for you, you can help by boosting us in social media.

I do recommend Dead Boy Detectives for real, it's REALLY good, but this is more about joining forces. They want numbers, so we give them numbers in the most petty way: after they cancelled so that other networks will get interested. At the very least, the crew and creators might get some royalties and they deserve it after busting their asses for years to give us this season.

TL;DR: stream dead boy detectives as a community to shove it in their faces

me when YET ANOTHER SHOW I LIKE GETS CANcELLED

[noecantsleep]

[not-the-living-ghost]

well at least now i can say with absolute certainty that netflix hates two things, and that’s ghosts and gay people

Being in the fandom of a prematurely canceled media is like the opposite of “The lights are on but nobody’s home.” The lights are off, nobody’s paying the electric bill anymore, but we’re partying in here anyway, the happiest haunted house on the block.

The lights are off, but we still call it home.

The reason why Netflix is loosing so much money is because they keep canceling shows. Im so serious. This happens every couple of months and it makes me less and less inclined to start new shows. People dont want to start watching things they already know are not going to complete their runtime. Finish your shows before making new ones! Thats how you get your fucking money!

So I guess the moral of the story is if you have an idea for an LGBTQ+-friendly fantasy drama/comedy, don’t pitch it to Netflix

[shutupcrime]

Honestly at this point when Netflix cancels a show it’s an assurance of quality

[elainiisms]

at this point just admit what your problem is
