Why is he in trouble, you ask? He got caught trying to sneak his boyfriend in at 3am

dead boy detectives deserves 22 episode seasons that air once a week on network tv

8 binge episodes is not nearly enough to give this show the justice it deserves!!!!

My thought process upon seeing Ai Di's tag:

Okay, so if he's born in 2001 that means he's 5ish- no WAIT

I will never understand the hatred for filler episodes in shows. I want beach episodes, I want wacky hijinks that have no plot relevance, I want silly little episodes that focus on showing off more sides of a character’s personality! why are 10 episode seasons the norm now it isn’t enough!!!!

Echo was great, and damn if it didn't use it's time perfectly - I went into the last ep going 'only 36 minutes?' and actually I don't think I would have wanted the climax to be a second longer, very very well done, what a great cast of characters

but MAN i should not have rewatched Daredevil s1 before this, because yes, Echo used the time it had perfectly, but fuck, remember when 13 episodes was a short season? I wanted more time with these characters before the finale, dammit

Me: I have no time I have to be at work at 7 and I have to go to sleep by 11! I've been going to sleep after 11:30 to get to work by 8am, and that wasn't enough sleep, so I should be in bed by 10:30!

Also me: in bed by 11, stays up reading a fic until after 12am for some fucking reason and will now be getting 5 and a half hours of sleep at most. And will probably be late anyway, too. Yay!

SO many shows only exist because of shorter seasons. Shows that tumblr are utterly mad for. We get shorter seasons now (and believe it or not, that isn’t that new, cable shows have always had about 13 episodes, network shows with ads were the ones that tended to run longer), but we also have lots more shows than we used to, and it’s impossible to make all of them at 22 episodes. The Get Down, The Baby Sitter’s Club, A League of their Own, Dickinson, High Fidelity, all of them had very short runs or were cruelly cancelled early, but if 22 episode, ad supported seasons were still the norm, I don’t think those shows would have seen the light of day at all.

Everything, with the possible exception of sitcoms would be as aggressively white as it was when I was in middle school, and nearly everything full stop would be aggressively straight, because that’s what’s considered safer. I don’t think we’d have Gen V, I don’t think we’d have the Flanaverse, I don’t even think we’d have Arcane. Having a 22 episode season of Arcane sounds legit but when 9 episodes took 6 years I’m not sure it would have been feasible on a similar budget. Not saying things are perfect now, they aren’t, you have to sort through a lot of trash to get to the gems. But there are still gems.
