#and now the show is cancelled

"why should I get invested in shows if they'll just get canceled" I was deeply invested in Heroes (2006) and it was not canceled, it just got really terrible. I also got really invested in the sandwich I had a few weeks ago despite it only lasting like 15 minutes. You must embrace the ephemeral. You must be willing to love things that may not love you back, that might betray you, or that may die an untimely death. As the great philosopher Mr. Mitchell Lee Hedberg said "I'm not gonna stop doing something because of what happens at the end."
#now granted he did die of a drug overdose but you know. one can take the good lessons#anyway. point being i understand being deeply frustrated with the state of the tv and film.#but also we can admit that for every gem canceled there's like three real duds too#idk if you want something that's guaranteed to have a bunch of seasons and you know the ending for go watch shows from the 70s#the number of adults on this site who lack the emotional wherewithal to watch an ongoing narrative is. yikes.#queue

"What if my favourite show is delayed due to writers strike?"
With respect, no one cares about your favourite tv shows.
This is about real people fighting for their real livelihoods, for their futures.
I cannot articulate sufficiently how unimportant the production of some tv show or other is.
#i'll happily watch all my fav shows get cancelled if it means the writers win this#how are the stupid shows even a concern right now#wga strike#wgat the hell#writing#union#writers guild of america#go slay#writers! you can do it!

The Monty Eyebrow™️
for @purgatory606
#thank you mira for throwing this at me#when a guy spends his existence going “🤨🏳️🌈⁉️” but alas ghosts don’t show up in mirrors#hate that I had to split up the second one because they decided to cut to Monty for a bit#uninterrupted footage from every camera that was ever running on the show. on my desk Monday.#dead boy detectives#dbda#charles rowland#jayden revri#my gifs#finally figured out how to get gifs to look slightly less shit on mobile!!#it’s the sharpening 😔 always up the sharpening#smth about the noise of the grain cancelling out the visible pixelation#me before making gifs: boy I wonder why gifmakers go quite that hard on the sharpening. the original scenes don’t look crunchy#me now: I’d Like To Apologise (2h 15m)

eight-episode seasons becoming the norm, shows being cancelled after their first or second season altogether, corporations not spending a single dollar to promote their renewed shows, corporations deciding to renew based on how many people binge it over and over and over again... this is the slow, choking death of media literacy.
#and that's not even TOUCHING the homophobia. I'm not calm enough to talk about that shit right now#warrior nun#also. because people are being annoying in the tags and replies. the death of media literacy as in:#showrunners aren't told in enough time that their show is going to be canceled so they either end with a cliffhanger or have to wrap#everything up in the next season so the writing is rushed#and when the writing is rushed then the morals will be skewed and people will misconstrue them even more and talk badly about the show and#then another show like it will get canceled. it's a vicious cycle#smokey speaks#1k#10k

wait wait wait, so we had: a gorgeously diverse, complicated story about the folly of the Jedi, set against the backdrop of truly fascinating Force witch lore and a potential deep-dive into the real fallout of suppressing emotion, complete with totally rad lightsaber fights, grayscale characters all around, and the coolest fucking helmet in the history of the franchise, all tucked into the world of Star Wars, which makes money simply by existing--and they cancelled it?? i am going to explode
#star wars#the acolyte#the acolyte spoilers#genuinely this is the most interesting thing they've done in this universe in YEARS#and yeah yeah there was the moment at the beginning where they for some reason decided there could be Fire in Space#but are you KIDDING me?? are you KIDDING#jacinto in this show is what kylo stans have been dreaming about for AGES#the twins are fucking FASCINATING#just the scene of a possessed wookie with a lightsaber alone should have yeeted this into the archives of Coolest Shit Ever#and you fucking wasted it?? you cancelled it?? are you out of your goddamn MIND disney???#a genuinely scary villain who somehow isn't the scariest thing about the show. complexity all around. lightsaber FISTFIGHTS.#i am going to lose my mind#i am so mad#you'd think i'd be used to this shit by now but come on dude

Do you think that campaigning and putting pressure on the studios could get Dead Boy Detectives picked up for another season or by another studio? Or have you given up hope already?
honestly i think it's worth a shot. it already has season 2 written, it's gotten a ton of positive reviews, and a strong fanbase. #savedeadboydetectives has been trending on twitter for like a week.
plus these streaming services SHOULD feel the pressure of user dissatisfaction with the one-season cancellation model.
if nothing else, i think it's worthwhile to shout about it because more people deserve to see it! ❤️
#dead boy detectives#and personally as i have posted before i am happily in the land of delusion right now#and in my imaginary headspace the show hasn't even been cancelled so. make of that what you will

The, "if you show gays to kids they will be gay!" argument is so funny to me because
I know asexuals exist, I'm not asexual.
I know non-binary people exist, I'm not non-binary.
I know doctors exist, I don't want to be a doctor.
I know goths exist, I don't want to be goth.
I know kleptomaniacs exist, I don't want to steal things for no reason.
I know vegans exist, I don't want to be vegan.
And what about all the gay parents who raise straight kids?
What about gay kids who were raised by straight parents and knew they were gay before they had access to the word?
Are you stupid?
#also why do you try to get entire shows cancelled instead of just parenting properly?#athena p said it bro if you don't like the show your kid is watching then-#*click power off button* TV off#really now?#its the same argument as “if you don't like abortions don't get one.”#just don't get one#lgbtq#lgbt#lgbtqia#transgender#nonbinary#gay agenda

i just know that the gabrielle de lioncourt discourse on this website is going to be fucking catastrophic
#iwtv#the vampire chronicles#interview with the vampire#gabrielle de lioncourt#i legitimately can’t wait#no matter how they execute the character there’s going to be so much discourse#like you think it’s bad now wait until the show fans get a complex and flawed female/gnc character#who has a simultaneously neglectful/abandoning AND incestuous relationship with her son#and i haven’t even started on the potential gender debates#anyway as usual i’ll be there standing with my cancelled wife#spouse?

I just rewatched Yuri on Ice, because, you know (rip). Maybe because this time I could watch it all in one go instead of waiting week by week for new episodes, but: wow there is so much more I noticed this time around in the progression of Yuri's skating program through the series.
So up until the final episode, the arc of Yuri's program is about him embodying the idea that he's selfishly seducing Victor away from the world of skating. It's pretty clearly done out of defense - he feels insecure about Victor quitting to become his coach, and the other characters are very vocal about criticizing him for taking Victor out of the competition (some jokingly, some very much not). To get through it, he has to use the strategy of turning the thing that people hate about you into your armor so they can't hurt you with it anymore.
But - this changes at the Grand Prix Final. He's struggling with watching Victor interact with this world that Victor so clearly belongs in, wondering if he's preventing Victor from living the life he wants. And Yuri is not really that selfish of a person, despite him having spent an entire season trying to convince himself that he is. So he decides he's going to leave skating forever and set Victor free.
And ooooof watching his final free skate after this hits so hard. Like: this is Yuri getting on the ice for what he believes will be the very last time, skating a program about letting both Victor and the world of figure skating go. But it's different now, because unlike the last time he wanted to quit, this time he's not leaving out of insecurity or fear, but out of love - out of wanting to watch the people you love be the best they can be, even if that means they have to leave you behind.
and then they choose to stay together anyway because they both realize that "being the best they can be" is when they are around each other. ohhhhohhohhhhhhh my god I'm gonna cry
#yuri on ice#tangential: in 2016 the world was not ready for asexual katsuki yuri headcanons but maybe the world is ready now#someone give me an excuse to talk about ace katsuki yuri please please please please please ple#PLEASE#yoi#anyway mappa are absolute losers for cancelling this show. S2 would have simply been too powerful for this world

This is how that scene in season 3 went right?
#netflix daredevil#daredevil#matt murdock#foggy nelson#mattfoggy#oops i dropped my wallet#ID in alt text#bliss art#get a man who shows back up who you thought was dead#only to break your heart and steal your wallet and you don’t know which part you’re pissed at more#granted later you find out he saved you from a terrible fate but now you gotta cancel your cards and get new ones#in which case force your boyfriend to endure it with you as a a treat#at least he got you a nice wallet to make up for losing yours in the bay…
