i’m actually grateful for apple tv+ who seems to be able to believe in their tv shows despite ‘low’ ratings.
based on wikipedia, they have 76 ongoing shows (drama + comedy):
- 27 of them were ended but 13 of them had at least 2 seasons which brings us to a 18% cancellation rate after their first season
- 18 of them (23%) were miniseries so their end is justified
- 21 of them are renewed but if if you add the 13 series that had at least 2 seasons, this brings us to a total of 35 shows that were renewed which is a 46% ratio renewal rate
apple tv+ renews half of their shows and i think we should be thankful for them in a time where netflix and amazon cancels 90% of their shows
#like any other streaming service would have cancellled foundation by now#but we’re getting a 3rd season#swagger ended after 2 seasons but we still get a second season! you bet your ass we would never had it on netflix#the quality of these shows are also a factor in this that's for sure#but still. i think whoever is running apple tv+ has the right idea in investing on the long term vs. short term#and we all should be starting to pay more attention to their shows!#apple tv+#apple tv#this whole text post started casually but then i had to back it up with real numbers lol#but yeah anyway. watch severance! watch mythic quest! watch foundation! watch silo!#damn i also just saw that they renewed platonic

I know that Neil knowing nothing about pop culture is funny, and I fully agree he really has no idea, but I feel like hes really really good at lying about it. cause if you think about it, kid who has no idea what star wars is or the most popular singers is a kid youll remember, and Neil was always trying to be the most forgettable person possible. So I think that he has a surface level knowledge of most pop culture that is just enough to lie about what he knows
#I think this would take the foxes like a year to figure out#but when hes on the run#new kid already draws attention#suspicious lack internet knowledge has got to draw more attention#anyway one day he just tells them hes never watched a popular tv show#and matts standing to the side like#dude we had an hour long conversation about it last week?#neil: yeah I had no idea what we were talking about#all for the game#neil josten#kaos talks

I love Zombie shows with my whole heart but god damn do the first episodes always piss me off, cause every character has a bad case of dumb bitch disease©️.
Like you just watched your son run over a man TWICE and he still didn't die, you are trying to actively leave the city to avoid the oncoming apocalypse, AND YET, you see your boss covered in blood and growling and it can't possibly be the same for him right?
Anyways enjoying Fear The Walking Dead so far.
#dont know why it has taken me so long to watch#used to be obsessed with yhe walking dead and watch basically any zombie show i can get my hands onto#i think originally i didnt watch cause i thought it was just gonna be a cash grab from the people producing the walking dead#and didnt want to support running a show into the ground for profit#but i guess that boat has sailed lol#twd#the walking dead#zombie#zombies#zombie shows#fear the walking dead#ftwd#tv shows#tv

Hello, I'm an"I need more episodes per season" end-of-year rant.
I don't need to come back to 24 episodes seasons per say, but what's with all these 6 or 8 episodes only seasons ?
Honestly, when the 6 episodes are about 30 minutes long and are all released in one go, it just seems like I've seen a movie when I'm done.
And don't get me started on all these 6-8 épisodes shows that are canceled right away, only to be replaced by new 6-8 episodes shows that will also be canceled right away. Are these mini-series or what ?
Oh, and I almost forgot about those shows that make you wait for at least two years before releasing their new season, that is if they're lucky enough to survive beyond their first one.
In the end, I'm so grateful for all the multi-seasons sitcoms and dramas that have been produced until now. These are the ones I always come back to when I'm feeling down, because, as imperfect as they are, I love the characters and I had time to grow attached to them.
End of rant.
#gimme at least 12 episodes per season#some of the long run sitcoms i like to regularly come back to#friends#arrested development#friennnnds#the good place#did i say friends ?#new girl#south park#parks and recreation#that 70s show#two broke girls#the simpsons#the office#the golden girls#malcolm in the middle#the nanny#none of these could have been produced by netflix today#at best you get 8 episodes reboots#tv#fandom

I just rewatched moonknight and your audios are literally the only thing keeping me alive in that somewhat dead fandom THANK YOU 😭😭🙏
i do feel adrift making moon knight stuff still so thank you
#like even if season 2 does ever happen ive seen rumors that if it does marvel wants to tie it further into the mcu#like obvs it was already in the mcu but i mean ive heard they might put avengers characters in moon knight and#honestly im too tired of the mcu have been for too long#marvel ruined marvel for me#moon knight would honestly be the only mcu property id go and watch but i wont if it ends up with whoever the current avengers are in it#i dont want to go and do homework and watch all the mcu movies and shows ive missed just to watch moon knight season 2#and if they put loki series bullshit like the tva in there then i cant watch it at all#thats why i couldnt watch deadpool and wolverine even though i was initially excited for it#the loki series caused me as a trans person active in the loki fandom to get harassed so much i cant see anything#to do with that show without getting uncomfortable so if the tva is there i especially wont be watching moon knight#i dont know how marvel thinks they can sustain the mcu forever like surely if new people want to get into the mcu#or even like kids who like superheros they cant just to go the cinema and watch the newest movie#cos they wont understand anything unless they stay home and do homework by watching years of movies and tv shows first#having everything connected at first was run. watching avengers assemble in the cinema was fun.#but theres too much now and it hasnt been fun in a long time#i also remember hearing after phase 1 they got rid of the team that made sure all the movies by different writers and directors#still felt cohesive and had continuity with each other and i feel that shows more every year#wow didnt expect to be giving an mcu rant in the tags its just sad sometimes to think how long i loved marvel for#and now i really couldnt care less about it. though that started with endgame when they made fatphobic jokes about thor all movie#that was the last time i saw a marvel movie in cinemas. think it was the last time i watched any mcu movie.#watched a few shows after that but got too burned by the transphobia in the loki series. and then moon knight and then nothing.#im just sitting here forever clinging onto the main mcu timeline loki who died in infinity war and never got brought back to life#just me and them in my own corner where they can have nice genderfluid representation#the vampire answers

I use to get sad thinking about the Mandalorian ending, and I still do to an extent, but it’s mostly…relief? Happiness? Season three just…. I don’t know. Changed the tone of everything and I hope the movie can “fix” some of the disaster that was season 3.
No seriously like... this is how I'm feeling in the sense of... I'm also just ready to stop seeing people trash this show/these characters all the time. I'm exhausted like sldkjsdlkfj I'm so tired of seeing all the hate and if ending the show will end that, too, then so be it 😭
#sometimes you just know when things come to an end#plus by the time the movie happens it'll have been 6 years since mando came out#that's a long run for a non-network tv show!#the mandalorian#you have spoken

okay, but seriously fuck netflix for never committing to more than 1-2 seasons of a show, especially when it comes to book adaptations!
#netflix is ruining the concept of a long running good television show#bc they can’t handle a show not being an instant hit with just the first season#so they cancel it and ruin everyone’s hopes and dreams#they are cruel#shadow and bone show#shadow and bone#netflix shadow and bone#six of crows#netflix#book adaptation#leigh bardugo#television#tv#ali’s thoughts & opinions 📼

i only have one thing to say about episode three of percy jackson: i am obsessed with jessica parker kennedy’s portrayal of medusa.
the minute she stepped out and started talking i would’ve gone running in for those cheeseburgers, will i be turned to stone? will i become a friend? who knows, all i know is jessica parker kennedy.
#‘she wont bother you as long as you’re with me’ i immediately run into her arms#percy jackson episode 3#percy jackson#percy jackson tv show#percy jackon and the olympians#annabeth chase#grover underwood#medusa#jessica parker kennedy#walker scobell#leah sava jeffries#aryan simhadri

I think I am just not a second chance romance girlie 😔
#I like it in fic and in things like tv shows that are long running#because I already know the characters/understand their relationship#so I’m able to be more invested in the why they broke up and why I want them back together#but when it’s something like a book where the second chance romance is the whole thing? doesn’t tend to be my jam#aka I’m reading make the season bright rn and it’s just like. ok

have the umbrella academy and the dragon prince always been this...bad?
#recently started watching their newly released seasons#because i liked their earlier stuff#but since the shows are so long running i can't tell if they're getting worse or if my tastes are changing or what#they both have this kind of manipulative writing where they are like you WILL cry at this scene you WILL laugh at this one motherfucker!!!#like the events and dialogue of the shows are heavily engineered primarily to elicit a strong emotional response of some kind#without really earning it#relying heavily on fandom tropes and quip-style dialogue to try and be edgy and fresh and fun#at what point is media just entirely parody of itself all the time?#personal#i need to read more instead of watching tv i'm 30% of the way through about 4 books atm#the umbrella academy#the dragon prince

Star Trek: Discovery ending after five seasons is not a victory for the trolls that hated it. They didn't make it happen. They didn't want the show to live beyond one season let alone five. They didn't bring it down, they just annoyingly happened to still be here when it ended.
#star trek#discovery#star trek discovery#I don't think it was ever going to run as long as tng ds9 or voy#we'll never have that again#the way tv is made now is just completely different to how it was 20+ years ago#to get to five seasons on one of the less popular streaming services is still damn impressive#not to mention all the other trek shows that followed in its wake

We shouldn't assume people's sexualities or gender. You don't know anyone's identity until they tell it to you, yes.
But also queer people just know, we can sense the queerness. It's not the same
#if a queer person looks at me and goes ''are you queer? i'm getting a vibe'' i feel instantly flattered and i've made a new friend#if a cishet person does the same i run in another direction lol#there's a trans woman on this tv show my mom is watching#and she just mentioned she's trans and my mom was like ''oh look! she's trans!''#and i was like ''yup'' cause i clocked her the second i saw her#and i feel like an asshole for it but also? i'm trans i see thing cishets don't!#i can pick up on things cis people could never notice#ajfnjsng#girl i'm like you!! <3#(affectionate)#angel talks#EDIT: as long as you're respectful about it ofc!!!

Rat Grinders:Don’t do anything to the Bad Kids until antagonized, and it’s later revealed that their bad actions were a result of being groomed by one of their teachers for years and then murdered and possessed.
Intrepid Heroes:Fuck you, sending you to hell and you can’t be revived.
#I love the Intrepid Heroes#but I feel like they’ve been confirmation biasing their way into dealing the Rat Grinders#just because Kipperlilly was a little bitchy after their response to her calmly introducing hersel was to be racist towards her#I love this season but it really is starting to feel like the season of missed points and lost potential#the bits are amazing#the fights are amazing#the NPCs are amazing#and the Intrepid Heroes are at the top of their game!#but I feel like they’ve repeatedly sacrificed the long term quality of the plot for bits and running gags#and in normal dnd that’s fine of course!#but this is a serialized tv show that you’re making for profit#idk if this made sense#but yeah#still one of my top seasons of D20#but the Rat Grinders especially have so much potential that has been missed#just for a running gag about how they suck#this is not meant to be hate btw! just constructive criticism of the show#I feel like the moment it all started missing for me was when Kristin signed up to be president#that whole scene just reeks of missed potential#Riz’ entire arc feels incomplete without it#same with Kipperlilly#and the whole mirror match thing is thrown off entirely#also Kristin being focused on the presidency means we lose out on a lot of her religion building arc#and her need to take on actual responsibility and do the “uncool shit#I love the season characters and players so much#but I can feel lighting in a bottle waiting just around the corner and I’m sad we missed it#dimension 20#fantasy high#fantasy high junior year#d20
