#Steven wtf

[your-average-toast-enjoyer]

There's the name Steven and the name Stephen, right?

Then why are there Steves but no Stephes?

And Stephanies but no Stevanies? (Who also go by Steph, but not Stev?)

Watcher Rant

I know I literally never post on here, but I wanted to talk about how stupid the new Watcher announcement is, as someone who pays $6 a week for Dropout. Every week, Dropout releases about 5 episodes a week. Watcher releases one. I end up watching about 3+ hours a week of NEW content on dropout (D20, Adventuring party, game changer, etc.) Considering moving to a sub-model will be a huge hurdle already, there’s no way Watcher is, off the bat, going to start making more content. Most big streaming services aren’t even making a profit yet. It’ll probably be months, if not years before Watcher does (if they even last long enough). 

Another thing is that Shane and Ryan are really Youtube Guys. I don’t think they realize this? They don’t need big budget shows. Mystery Files is probably my favorite show of theirs and it seems to be pretty low budget. People watch them because of their personalities. Most of their shows DON’T need to be ‘high budget.’ I think the Try Guys are pretty good about this. They’re still pretty down to earth. Most of their videos aren’t extremely high budget, from what I can tell. They still rely on their big personalities and occasionally, risky, but unique ideas. 

I know this definitely isn’t the thing Watcher wants to hear, but they SIMPLY NEED to DOWNSIZE. (Or at least reconsider their budget/business model) It’s sad to say, but it’s kind of hard to watch them act like they’re going to become something bigger than Youtube, when their content is BUILT for youtube. I don’t think they’re ever going to realize this though. I love Ryan and Shane, they’re amazing comedians and a wonderful duo, but no one on their team seems to know how to properly run this business. 

Lastly, and most awkwardly, what the hell is Steven Lim doing? I don’t watch any of his shows, but I guess he’s the CEO, and that means he has to shoulder most of the backlash for this decision. I would be less critical of him, but I guess he literally bragged about owning a Tesla? This is a really strange business decision, dude. 

Also, it’s super funny in retrospect that now they’re gaslighting us about saying they were going to take all of their old content off of youtube and then immediately backtracking.

Listen guys I get that the new watcher news sucks and is awful, I hate it too, but I think some people are overreacting, just a little bit. The pivot to streaming is absolute bullshit and, objectively, a bad move but you don't need to scorn everything they've ever made just because they made a stupid decision. Ryan, Shane, and Steven are human beings trying to grow their company and they've made a bad bussiness desicion. They are not devils and everything they've ever made is not suddenly bad, they're just idiots, and sometimes, it's okay to just be an idiot.

The Abigail sequel is a meet-cute horror where Abigail tries to set Joey and her father up together with the help of an unknowing Caleb/Justin

and what if the super secret watcher announcement is that they're collaborating with taylor swift? a lot of watcher's shows involve files. taylor's new album is called 'the tortured poets department'. i'm sure there are a bunch of files in there. just saying.

I made the mistake of rewatching Sherlock because I never did finish it back in the day (I was -clenches fist- seething over the queerbaiting and rage quit after not fully watching episode 1 of s4) and I'm here to make my side hyperfixation (what year is this??? Who am I???) Tumblr's problem. The more I sit with s4, the less I like it 😂 There were pieces and elements I liked, but overall, it left a bad taste in my mouth. Forgive me if any or all if these points have been talked to death, I missed all the discourse and I'm hella late, but I need to flail and send my thoughts into the void because what even WAS that season? I can't believe I avoided it for years, got drawn in by a couple of tiktoks making fun (affectionately) of superwholock Era and That Scene about the fucking phone charger port, binged all of it, only to be left with..... that. Not nearly as disappointing or rage inducing as spn's ending but by God, did it leave a hole in me. So please ignore my rambling thoughts as I slap them down here for my own sanity.

• First and foremost, what - and I can't stress this enough - the fuck was UP with the assassination of John's entire character???? What was that??? Why????

• Related to that point - I can appreciate the angst point and potential it provides, as I'm reading many, many fics, but AYO WHY didn't anyone rip John an entire new one for that beat down he did on Sherlock????? Hello???? 911?????

• Tell me why everything felt so stilted and borderline icy. Like I get the high emotions and shit, but after a certain point... 😭 was there a falling out between Benedict and Martin that I'm not aware of? Did they just try to ungay everything so hard and were so pissed at the audience picking up everything THAT THEY PUT???? into this show and their interactions that they just hit the brakes hard enough to make everything feel weird???

• A lot of it felt weird. Off kilter a little. Forced in some places, toned down in others (and toned down where it shouldn't have been), a nod to ships but weirdly/hatefully??? Idk if that makes sense. Like the whole Sherlock and Molly phone call (I do not mean any hate to this ship, I really hope it doesn't come off this way. Not my cup of tea but you are valid). Why was Molly so upset BEFORE the call? Did I miss something? Also I don't personally think or feel she'd still have those feelings for him??? I??? I am bamboozled.

• to that whole point, Eurus was.... Hmm. Mmmm. She was. Something. (Confused derogatory)

• I like Mary as a character. I also hated her. (Definitely biased by my shipper trash ass self for johnlock, I'm sorry). Wtf were those messages, please. Edit: AND ANOTHER THING. John's reaction to Sherlock's death - awful, gut wrenching, beautiful, my heart breaks with and for him, utterly devasting. John's reaction to Mary's death - had me sitting there like🧍‍♀️(it was weird. so weird. awkward. w h y. (we know why, but also the acting choices were Something TM, in both cases! for different reasons!) i'm sorry i just can't get past my anger and put off-ness with mary, fun as she could be)

• why did mycroft and John switch roles 😭 pls. The last episode was just. So Much. The lackluster responses from John, to John, to Sherlock, between them, like.... hello???? Who are these people?? Help me. Moriarty saved me for a brief shining moment tho, God bless.

There's more I could spew, but that's what's sitting right at the top of my head. I guess all this just to say, if a show runner/writer really just fucking hates the audience they got (instead of the one they wanted), they probably shouldn't have fucking become a show runner/writer in the first place. Either hand it to someone who can actually handle it and listens, or fuck off. I will never understand when shows and plots and characters gets kamikaze'd because of a show runner being pissy and egotistical. Like ????? Grow up. Learn from Bryan Fuller and Hannibal or something.

Sorry for all the rambling, bless anyone who reads this and makes sense of it 😂
