#spoilers for season 5 promo poster

[theshriekingsisterhood]

Wow wow wow you guys WWDITS season 5 looks INSANE

[kiwibirdlafayette]

"what, or who exists in the darkness of the cave below the iron mine?"

little theory post/story behind this paintin i did! If ya haven't seen it yet feel free to look first and drop a cheeky rb i'd a appreciate it a ton <3

I'm convinced mumbo is doing a Lore (tm) with his magic mountain row and I'm also a really big fan of the planets/realms that make up the seasons having a pre-existing history to them (along the same lines as like Doc uncovering the prophecies in mural form in the Perimeter last season)

It kinda starts with Big Ron. I'm a really big enjoyer of the fan theory that Big Ron owns the predecessor/perhaps original Grumbot (that features in the promo for the merch store) The guy Mumbo plays in that ad spot to me isn't cMumbo himself, but is Ron, someone's who's lived on the mountain prior to the arrival of the hermits in-universe. I'm gonna come back to this

Then there's the lab. The poster Mumbo designed and showed at around 5:00 in this video was another sort of thing that spurred the idea around Jimmy, specifically the parts about human trials, preservation and the bit at the end about "soon we will be living forever." The emphasis he puts on the build about the lab spilling toxic waste onto the farmland below already tells me that these dudes are into some shady business practice, like vibes alone. I doubt they're following any sort of scientific moral code.

Then Jimmy. I'm still sort of waffling about on how he exists in the history of this universe but ultimately, him and Lizzie were both already here, maybe deities, maybe just well respected people (side note: I have a concept about Lizzie being goddess who raised Magic Mountain from the sea, hence why she's revered in the city where Joel lives but that's a whole nother post I'm not near knowledgeable enough to elaborate on just yet). Seablings? Seablings. Most important part is that Jimmy lived on Magic Mountain Row or somewhere on/in the mountain, canary already somewhat apart of him

Back to Big Ron. Like, for a guy who- focuses so much on outdated tech I find it super interesting that he has artificial intelligence, which. ok either he worked for the lab or invented proto-grumbot himself, and maybe shared that tech with the lab people. (next side note: I've seen the namemc spoilers from this morning I'm gonna assume that's lab guy Mumbo has made a skin for but for the sake of its not existent in videos yet I won't be commenting on it ok i digress back to Jimmy)

Let's say the these shady scientists are at a standstill in their process. They've got the archival tech down, but this immortality thing is hard to crack. So what do they turn to? Probably the magical being living in the town. Under the cover of night, the canary is captured. He's forced into some test tubes, feathers plucked, experimented on for who knows how long and they break him. But they get closer, and the end justifies the means. There could be others as well, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if others get looped into the mix

And then, at some point the authorities find out and these experiments are condemned. The Lab is condemned and the scientists are ordered to release the test subjects, and most of them are, but not Jimmy. He's too important. They need him kept somewhere safe to come back to. Working with Ron, and proto-Grumbot, they trap him inside a soul lantern, and in a "say anything and you're dead" kind of deal with the Boulder Bros (maybe the owners of the iron and gold mines) Jimmy's immortal soul is bound to be stuck forever in the iron mine, silenced from singing for his sister's help.

Years later, cMumbo arrives. I like playin around with the idea of it being like a Stardew-esque thing where Mumbo is either returning to a town and Ron is related to him somehow, and while living at that little house at the top, is working for Ron and running errands for the other shops, including stocking the iron shops at the mines that the shopping district developed around. But Ron gives him one clear instruction- stay in the light. Don't go past the stationary minecart at the edge of the darkness.

--------------------------

Mumbo for all that he is, heeds Ron's warning for the longest time. But like anyone curiosity starts to get the better of him. He can never tell if he's hearing things, but once in a while between the sounds of conveyor belts, and iron drills he starts to hear whispering. A faint whistle coming from the darkness beckoning him closer, to peek into what lies beyond. Talking to Jill and Bob at the oddities shop, he's able to sneak and convince a little story out of them, and after some hesitation sell him a magic soul torch, with the warning not to let anyone else see it.

On a restock run, he takes it with him secretly. And once his job is done, he makes his way deeper into the mine until he happens upon a soul lantern- a slight blue glow coming from within- sitting on a stone pedestal. Everything is telling him to turn back, that this is an awful idea. But, stupid ideas have always been his thing, and he opens the lantern, and lights it with the torch from Jill.

Pants.

The fire inside spurs to life in a roar, and he panics, dropping the soul torch at his feet, still burning a bright cyan. As he turns to run out, the canary song he hears bits of rings with a power he's never heard before and a flurry of yellow feathers fills the cavern. He makes it back into the light, frantically picking up the shulkers and stumbles into the mine elevator. He slams at the buttons as the bird calls reverb and howls through the mine, now more desperate than ever to get out. No amount of force on the carriage work, as every component of the mine machinery has hissed to a halt, acting as if possessed by something that doesn't want him to escape.

Something that needs him to understand what he's just released.

As he begins to falter dropping his head to his chest, the canary song fades into the already eerie silence, and soon all Mumbo can hear is the weight of his breathing, and the sound of his heart pounding through his ribcage. Biting at his thoughts, he shakily uses his free hand to shuffle himself back around to face the mine entrance.

The door of the lantern at the front creaks open, releasing a small bit of smoke out towards the minecart. From the darkness, a wisp of blue smoke pierces through the veil to meet the other trail of smoke. Mumbo sees a faint golden glow appear, only to realize its wings. As they come more into view, Mumbo's redstone stained eyes are met by deep brown ones that reflect the gold of their wings as a face appears in the shadows, followed by the rest of them, dressed in tattered and coal dust stained clothes. He holds out the soul lantern in his calloused right hand. The fear in the person's eyes look him down almost as if he recognizes him.

Mumbo doesn't dare speak.

And neither does the canary.

if you don't want any spoilers of season 6 ignore this

but to add to my previous post on the promo clip, Lucy's outfit looks suspiciously similar to the one she wears when she says "did you to undermine me" also did you guys notice Lucy is not wearing THE necklace in the i love you scene. The i love you scene is also located in the interrogation room which makes me think it happens right after the lie detector test. this means the vague layout for ep1 and 2 is Lucy and Tim ride together, Tim acts like an ass, they fight, Lucy feels undermined, lie detector , i love you, fight, wedding. but if we are saying the undermine and the i love you are from ep 1 then its more likely to be: Chenford riding together, Tim acts like an ass, Lucy feels undermined and Chenford fight , bachelorette party, make up at work later. that is just my vague guess order wise.

there is also this video:

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by The Rookie (@therookieabc)

there is a lot to unpack about this video

1.this is in Tims office so he just lets Lucy do whatever she wants in his office

2. he has a motivational poster which i just know Lucy convinced him to get

3. he doesn't have a sofa anymore so all the chenford fanfic writers will sob at that

4. i know everyone is going crazy over the background photo and i believe its Lucy since it looks like Lucy's face shape, also it doesn't make sense to have a picture of your ex in your office. I mean i know i don't.

5. TTim knows : detective exam = less time with Lucy and hes still more than happy to help which is something hes obviously gonna do i just thought it was a cute supportive bf moment

6. they Obvioulsy had a chat about Primm blocking her which Tim likely blamed on himself

7. Tim casually puts it out there that he knows her better than she does

8. chenford banter is the cutest

9. we also find out when the i don't like that smile scene

10. Lucy and Tim will be riding together alone for the first time since everyone found out about them

Noah promoting Byler was very likely something he was TOLD to do... so let's talk about it.

I see a lot of people hating on Noah, Finn and the Netflix accounts in general for hyping up Byler.

Noah especially has gone out of his way to say he ships it, but I don't see anyone talking about what has always been so obvious to me.

The reality is, Noah would not say a word about Byler, at all, if it was something he knew was not going anywhere. In fact, if that was truly the case, I think he would be prohibited from it.

With how bad queer-baiting is, I think the Duffer's definitely would have protected him from getting backlash for it, by telling him to avoid humoring Byler at all costs.

Instead, we see Noah not only acknowledging Byler and saying he ships it (numerous times), but also liking/commenting on Byler related posts, even going as far as to steer questions towards Byler in a positive light, as if he's trying to convince us that this is something more of us should open our minds to.

And this just REAKS of the Duffer's trying to warm people up to Byler, and with the only person that can do it at the moment.

Since Will is now canonically in love with Mike, this means that the actor playing him, saying he ships it outright, doesn't exactly qualify as a spoiler.

Now, Finn or Netflix being outright about it, would be a major no no, because it would be a spoiler for the character who plays Mike to say he ships Byler (his stuttering response to Byler happening is still iconic), as well as for the official accounts to throw out M*leven entirely and throw in Byler fully. The show is still technically in limbo with this love triangle. Which is why we see Finn and the Netflix accounts putting an effort to promote both M*leven and occasionally Byler, because although they still want to keep things a surprise for the most part, they definitely have an obligation to start giving at least some hints.

(I think it's also funny that David Harbour has a record for just sort of saying whatever he wants when it comes to spoilers. Like the whole "he likes someone else in the group" moment was definitely not planned and everyones reaction was visibly just shock because they all know they're not allowed to talk about this, but because it's David whose taking the lead they all just follow along with him amused.)

Otherwise, besides the main key-players, it's still something they probably want to keep under-wraps until season 5 is right around the corner. They are indeed stuck in limbo right now.

Just thinking realistically in terms of them preparing for endgame in season 5, it makes sense that they started to kick things off in season 4, in a way that's still really impartial, because as time goes on, the shift to Byler will be a lot easier than if they just went from nothing to everything all at once.

This is why it also makes sense for them to still promote M*leven, seeing as there may only be a little time left for them to do so.

But when we start getting official updates and bts and leaks and then eventually promo for season 5, I think it's very likely Will and Mike are going to be heavily associated with each other just as much in promo, if not more, than they were in season 4. And let's be honest, they were promoted A LOT together (there isn't a m*leven poster/billboard for s4 that I know of...).

With all the backlash they've got for queer-baiting, them going all in with Byler again would be a good indication to me that they are indeed going that route and we can start clowning indefinitely.

ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY SEASON 3

This post will cover everything from trailers, promo pics, interviews, articles etc and WILL be updated. I'll also try to put everything in chronological order.

Needless to say, this post will contain SPOILERS and will be LONG ^‿^

If you’d like a non-spoilery summary with just basic facts please check out The Umbrella Academy Timeline.

Click here to see my previous work, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY SEASON 2.

***********************************************************************

Elliot Page announced he's transgender and we couldn't be more proud! (X) What affect this will have on the character of Vanya is still to be seen, but Elliot is now rocking short hair. (X)

The Sparrow Academy (X)

#1 Marcus - A charming, chiseled, colossus. Honest, virtuous, and demanding, Marcus keeps the family together. Graceful but lethal, calculated but compassionate, he is as smart as he is strong. Marcus is disciplined, rational and in control. He oozes confidence and leadership without ever having to raise his voice.

#2 Ben - This is not the sweet Ben we know and love. This Ben is a Machiavellian tactician, wrapped up in a pretty boy body with a rumbling inner-squid. Vicious, pragmatic, and hyper-vigilant— Ben is determined to gain his status as the leader at all costs.

#3 Fei - Fei sees the world in a special way. She comes across as a misanthrope who would rather be alone than spend even a second with you. But truth be told, Fei wishes she had a friend. Most of the time Fei is the smartest person in the room and willing to work things out. But if you cross her there’s no looking back because Fei won’t stop until the job is done.

#4 Alphonso - Years of crime fighting have left his face and body with countless visual reminders of his battles. To compensate, Alphonso is armed with a caustic and biting sense of humor. The only thing he likes better than verbally battering anyone foolish enough to get in his face, is a good pizza and a six-pack of beer.

#5 Sloane - A romantic and a dreamer who feels a higher cosmic calling leaving her eager to see the world and experience a life beyond her upbringing. But obligations to her family keep Sloane tethered to the Academy, as does her fear of crossing the family line. But Sloane has plans… and one day she might just be brave enough to act on them.

#6 Jayme - Jayme is a loner hidden under a hoodie. She doesn’t say much because she doesn’t have to. Jayme has a fear-inducing snarl. Catch a glimpse of it, and you’ll run across the street to avoid what follows. Smart and sharp as a knife, she spends most of her time hanging with Alphonso, her only friend.

#7 Christopher - Christopher is a telekinetic cube of unknown origin. He can turn the room freezing cold and induce paralyzing fear. He acts as the Sparrows’ consulted oracle who hands out incredible advice and serves as the family mediator. Trustworthy, loyal, and is treated by the Sparrows like any other sibling, Christopher is a force to be reckoned with.

Although the show doesn't follow the comics excatly, its likely the Sparrows may have similar powers to their comic counterparts. So far all thats been shown in the comics is: - Flight - all of them - Super strength - Transforming into a flock of birds - A human voodoo doll who can hurt themselves to damage enemies - The ability to make Vanya walk again (when asked how, they responded, "I said so"). - Dark energy eye blasts (X).

Filming has now begun!

Episode 1 - "Meet the Family" (X).

A brief clip of a table read reveals the script direction, "... as her stomach. How is this even possible? She lets out a horrified scream..." (X). Speculation is that there'll be a scene of the Sparrow Academy's births similar to the Umbrella Academy in S1.

Justin H Min (Ben) tweeted a video of David Casteñeda (Diego) where it appears he has short hair again (X).

Filming is taking place in Toronto under the code name "Chroma" (X). So far we've seen Allison at a restaurant on “Lake St” (X), and filming at a large house (X).

A poster advertising the Sparrow Academy has been seen on set. The poster says, "Crime's the problem. We are the solution." with silhouettes of the Sparrows (X).

Filming has taken place at a museum with a huge Sparrow Academy banner hanging outside (X). Seen on location was Luther in a purple suit, as well as Ben, Fei, and Christopher (X)(X).

A New Together: Why Both Clarke and Octavia Should Take The Final Test

As much as I would love it if Octavia took the Final Test on her own, because she’s so ready and primed for it (see below), I know realistically that’s unlikely (also see below) - so the next best option is for Clarke and Octavia to take the Final Test together.

Not one person, but both of them.

So let’s review -

Reasons why Clarke should take the Final Test:

1. Protagonist Privilege

Let’s be real, that’s 90% of the reason. Clarke is a mess right now. Understandably so - I’m not knocking her. She’s been through hell the past week. She’s about as stable as a house of cards in a windstorm. She’s not currently suited to take a first grade math test, let alone a Final Test for whether humanity deserves to survive. But she is The Protagonist, so needs must. She has to be there.

2. She has Nothing to Lose

Clarke has lost everything (except her so-called friends, who she hasn’t spent a lot of time with, who she doesn’t really know, so really I don’t think they’re a factor). She has nothing to lose by going into that white light. Especially if there’s any chance that the Final Test could save Madi from being trapped the way she is - Clarke will do it.

Reasons (and Evidence) why Octavia should take the Final Test:

1. Peace and Mental Calm

Perhaps words one would never expect to associate with Octavia Blake, but that’s what her story has been this season. Finding peace, both externally and internally. Finding mental stability and calm for the first time in her life. She’s got the wisdom and maturity and experience to take on a challenge like this.

2. She has Everything to Lose

Counterpoint to Clarke right now - Octavia has a child, she has a declared family, even a living love interest. But Octavia’s always been non-possessive in her love - she has Her People, yes, but she’s also the one to have a love and a hope for all of humanity (emphasis on the humanity, rather than just the ambulatory meatsacks that the Disciples favour for “all mankind” and skipping the humanity aspect), and that love is what I believe is a key aspect of the ability to pass the Test.

3. The Call of the Anomaly

Remember that plot point back in season 6, where Octavia, Diyoza and Gabriel were being “called” by the Anomaly? What if that isn’t just a dropped theory? What if it was true - because they were candidates for taking the Final Test?

Ever since we’ve heard of this being a Test instead of a War, I’ve immediately thought those three would be the best candidates to take it - all three have been through the full spectrum of human highs and lows, done all sorts of terrible things, but made it through the other side and found a new peace and purpose. Also - all three of them spent time on Skyring. What if Skyring is the “waiting room”, a purgatory of sorts, where souls are further purified in peace and stillness to be able to take this Test?

With Diyoza and Gabriel dead, Octavia’s the only one left of that group to take it.

4. Her Poster Symbol

Octavia’s symbol in the season 7 promo posters (♁) has a variety of names and meanings - it is a symbol for the Earth in astronomy, as well as the globus cruciger, which in Christian tradition “represents Christ’s dominion over the orb of the world, literally held in the hand of an earthly ruler” (Wikipedia). Yet a third interpretation is the alchemical symbol for antimony, where it represents the wild aspects of human nature.

Those are a wide variety of potential meanings - or it could be all of them at once, because they all reflect Octavia in some fashion. Earth because that’s where she found freedom. I’ve written before about how Octavia is this show’s Jesus figure and here she could bring salvation to them yet again. But she’s also been a wild free spirit.

Most characters share their poster symbols with someone else, but crucially, Octavia does not. This could be significant.

5. Marie’s Interviews

Marie has a particular way of giving interviews when it comes to hints and spoilers. She very specifically has a list of things she’s not allowed to talk about, but outside of that list, she doesn’t really hold back. She’s also very literal. She also repeats things almost verbatim for every interview (presumably to avoid getting close to that list of things) unless someone asks a vastly different question.

One phrase she’s repeated across many interviews is the three words she uses to describe Octavia this season - “nurturing, self-actualized, elevated”. We’ve seen the first two, and what with knowing that Marie is very literal, the third can easily point to “transcendence” as a logical option.

Additionally, in her Collider interview, when asked about Octavia’s journey in season 7 and the conclusion of her arc, Marie says “It’s a storyline, for her character specifically, that people have not seen coming yet”. What would be better than jumping into a situation not with her sword, but with her love and wisdom to save humanity this time?

I’ve believed Octavia was going to transcend humanity this season before transcendence was even mentioned on the show. Even before this season started. It only makes sense.

But since Clarke has to be there too, not to mention what JRoth Tweeted about Bellamy’s death, and how “his life and his endless love for his people will loom large and affect everything that comes after, to the very end of the series finale itself” - Octavia won’t be doing it alone.

JRoth also apparently promised “an emotional conclusion” for the Blakes. Well, they didn’t get that in person, but Octavia and Clarke working together here could be a way for that to happen anyway. Clarke and Bellamy often did things “together”. But he’s gone. Octavia isn’t. And she’s right there with Clarke. The Heart of their trinity might be dead, but the Head and the Soul stand together.

Now is the time that Clarke and Octavia do something together. For Bellamy. For all of their people.

Ogeda. Not for “all mankind”, but for what makes us human: Love.

Zach and Grace Friday panel at Connecticon 2019

Some highlights and notes from the "Growing Up with Steven Universe" panel featuring Zach Callison and Grace Rolek, Friday afternoon at Connecticon 2019. There are some promo spoilers. Most quotes are approximate from the notes I took on my phone. There may be a recording of the panel, but the camera was blocked by the audience question line for a while and when I got to the front of the line, I saw it wasn't even pointed at Zach and Grace.

Sorted into broad categories:

Movie hype / spoilery talk

Host asked about the poster. Zach said he's kinda looked at it, but not studied it closely. Grace: "Spoiler alert, someone has a neck." Zach: "That's all anyone can talk about."

What's the hardest scene to record that you've done. Zach: "I hate to do this but the hardest scene I've done I did a few weeks ago and I can't talk about it for quite a while." [audience groans]

Audience member: "I have a question about the movie." Zach makes police siren noises, "Oh no the Cartoon Network spoiler police!"

Attempts to get even small details were denied. "So we saw you have a neck. Is your voice going to change?" [pause] Zach: "A week from today (Friday), there's a big panel and there's gonna be a bunch of stuff. I recommend you watch."

This was earlier in the day, when I met Zach in the autograph line. Me: "I'm really looking forward to all the stuff that's gonna come out next week in San Diego." Zach: "There's so much. I'm not going to be there, after six years of going, I need a vacation."

Zach makes ABUNDANTLY clear how excited he is for what's coming up, "I am thrilled with what they've done after CYM."

Reaction to the new gems from CYM. Zach: "Sunstone is one of my favorites now. Like an after-school camp counselor." Grace: "Obsidian is one of the hardest secrets I've ever had to keep on this show." They finished recording CYM in 2017!

Have you ever cried in the recording booth? Zach: "Over a dozen times. One time really badly... with something that hasn't come out yet."

What's the biggest theme you've taken from the show? Zach: "I'm really sorry to do this, but I'm gonna skip this question because the theme I take away is something that hasn't come up in the show yet." He says the show has become intensely personal to him and his experiences, both intentionally and unintentionally, and says if he accidentally gave hints as to upcoming themes, it wouldn't be fair to the crew. (This probably ties in with some of the stuff below under “Outside of SU”)

Favorites and funniest

What's the hardest scene to record that you've done. Among stuff that's aired, Zach: Storm in the Room. Connie: "Either Nightmare Hospital or Full Disclosure when Connie is like 'Stop ghosting me, Steven!' "

What are some funny moments from recording? The opening scene from "Winter Forecast", the directors INSISTED on real marshmallows, "nothing else would do". Grace: "And these were not small. There's jumbo and then there's novelty size." Zach: "They got novelty size." Grace: "I could barely fit one inside my mouth."

Favorite episode (this question might've had a "besides the Big Plot episodes" caveat).

Zach: "Onion Gang. Any of the weird Onion episodes."

Grace: "I realize this is an unpopular opinion but I love the Ronaldo episodes. I have a Keep Beach City Weird sticker on my laptop. I don't like having stuff that's too overtly Steven Universe because I don't like to toot my own horn, but KBCW is great because it's 'if you know, you know'." Zach: "It's a lifestyle."

That segued into talk about "Rocknaldo", which Zach thought was hilarious, especially the way CN trolled everyone with the Bloodstone promo. Grace "Was that the one where Ronaldo tried to kill someone in the basement?" Discussion brings up that's "Horror Club". Grace continues, "That was a great one, like what are we DOING? No one went to jail for this?"

Favorite songs:

First, ones that they did.

Zach said "Let's Only Think About Love". I think he added a second one, but my notes say “or” and then stop there so I think I moved on to the next bit and forgot what else he said.

Grace says "Of course 'Do it for Her'" but also that she loved providing background harmonies for "Escapism". "Aly and AJ was the first concert I ever went to, so to do back-up vocals for AJ was the greatest fangirl moment." (There’s been some confusion as to whether Zach and Grace had vocals on that song, it’s now clear that they did)

Then, overall. Zach immediately sings "It's over, isn't it? Isn't it over?" Grace grumbles that she can't take the same answer, so she throws out "Stronger Than You".

"Back in the start of the show, it was a lot more lighthearted. What's the funniest or weirdest line you had to record?" Zach IMMEDIATELY goes into voice: "A boy on the cusp of manhood can't spend the whole day wackering." Grace enjoyed her line from "Open Book": "Of course you like the ending, you LOVE schmultz."

Pivoting into the weirdness of early episodes, Zach says "Frybo and Cat Fingers were back to back, 5 and 6. I don't know how anyone stuck with the show after that."

What's the biggest theme you've taken from the show? Grace: "I think about Mindful Education all the time. Here Comes a Thought is such a great song but also an important mantra."

Other than Uncle Grandpa, what crossover would you like to do? Zach: "I wanna be the very best!" Audience cheers. Grace says she would've loved to do "Adventure Time".

This segues into a joke that people confuse Zach for Jeremy Shada (Finn), in some cases even when Zach is standing in front of a poster that says ZACH CALLISON. Grace says that her boyfriend loves the joke so much that Zach is listed in his phone as "Jeremy Shada".

Behind the scenes

What was it like seeing the show blow up the way it did? Grace: "I used to go on Tumblr and read all the posts, all the reactions people had, but after Jail Break... couldn't do that anymore." Zach: "I poke my head into a reddit every once in a while."

What's it like in the booth with the rest of the cast? Grace: "Deedee and Michaela always get to do the funniest things."

Discussion of how voice acting lends them a little more anonymity than live-action, and there's still a spectrum of how recognizable people are.

Grace recounts a story from earlier in the day, possibly on the way to that very panel. "The elevator was pretty crowded and I was able to get on but Zach wasn't. And as soon as it closed, one of the other people in the elevator was like 'Oh my god, Zach Callison almost got on the elevator with us!' And I was like 'Oh my god, that would've been so cool!'"

Both Zach and Grace recounted times when they've greeted stranger wearing SU apparel and gotten blank stares in response, like, "Uh, yeah, what's your point?"

Zach: "As of Sunday, I'm leaving the country to be a hobo for a bit." He's flying to Siberia, then taking a 62-hour train ride to get on a boat to Korea, where he plans to visit the Korean animation studio where SU is drawn (as seen in "Steven's Dream"), something almost no actors do (apparently Michaela was more or less the first to do so, for any show at all).

Sometimes Grace will have a lot of "catching up" to do with the plot. "One time Rebecca was like 'oh by the way Lars is pink now." Zach jokes, "Lars is pink, Ronaldo and Pearl are married, oh and Steven is dead."

Have you ever cried in the recording booth? Zach: "Over a dozen times." Grace says she has, sometimes in group records.

More joking around: "Yes, I'm Zach Callison, the voice of Onion. I'll be in my booth." "You should have a print that's just Onion." "With the flames behind him."

What were your auditions like? Grace: "I was reading the sides from 'Bubble Buddies', and Connie is worried she's gonna die with no friends and I was like 'This is a kids show? This is a show for children and I'm supposed to say these words?!'" She saw Rebecca Sugar's name attached to the show, which she recognized as a fan of Adventure Time, particularly Marceline "I'm edgy like her!"

Audience member starts her question: "Ohmygod, my heart is in my ass. Wait, can I say ass?" Grace: "You can say whatever you want, you're not under the thumb of Time Warner." Zach: "Technically, I've never signed any NDA. Oh hell, I'm leaving the country in three days. ACT ONE!" [laughter, and he does not continue with joke spoilers]

Outside of Steven Universe

Tell us about yourself outside of Steven Universe. Zach: "I'm a dirty rowdy hippie." He goes to music festivals barefoot (but not urban ones).

Zach talked about some of the over-the-top scenes he's been in or seen on "The Goldbergs", where he plays a minor recurring character, including one where the actual rain they were filming in wasn't enough, so the producers dumped thousands of gallons of additional rainwater on the cast.

Zach said he hasn't auditioned for anything new in a while (I think he said at least a year) because of burnout. Whenever SU may end, he's ready for a break. Following on with that, discussion of what a shitty industry Hollywood is, especially for kids.

Zach: "A lotta people (in this industry), their big break is a show they hate, and that kills me to think that. And it couldn't be further from the truth for anyone in SU. If I had booked a live-action sitcom that ran six seasons, I wouldn't be here. I'd be in a much darker place."

What would you be doing if not this?

Zach: "I enrolled in college, signed up for things, never went to class, and eventually dropped out. I never had any other plan." Ties into further discussion of what an absolute nightmare Hollywood is for kids, that some of his friends from high school are no longer around.

Grace: "I went to college for two years (she would've graduated this spring), trying to make sure I had a plan B lined up. But flying back and forth from San Francisco to Los Angeles was getting ridiculous and I realized I wasn't being fair to my plan A."

:o Please please rant about the 100 and Bellamy!! I was only marginally into it so I don't know much but I love to hear your meta on literally everything!!

all RIGHT. spoilers for the 100 past this point! also i’m gonna go ahead and preface this with a warning about racism, and also that a lot of this is based off stan twitter, but like. they aren’t Wrong.

oh, also, i’m gonna go ahead and drop my stan twitter: i rarely make original posts, but, ya know. it’s a jumble of content. feel free to follow if u want.

also! there’s this whole thread of hiatus drama, if you want a fuller picture than what i’m giving you.

so a quick, general sum-up of some plot that goes into this Whole situation: the sixth season of t100 took place on a different planet, after t100 spent ~5 seasons on earth, so this introduced new characters and also the concept of interplanetary travel. in the season six finale, hope (the daughter of a character, diyoza, who was still pregnant with hope, because ~time travel~) stepped through what’s called “the anomaly,” says “i’m sorry,” and stabs octavia, dissipating her into green mist. bellamy, octavia’s brother (who has had Issues and a Lot of storylines centering around octavia, which is a whole other topic of conversation (ft. bellamy’s storylines centering around white women (bob morley, who plays bellamy, is half-filipino) octavia’s treatment by fandom vs bellamy’s, and you can probably tell which side i’m on by how loudly i screamed “YEEEEEESSSSSSS” when bellamy said “you’re my sister, but you’re not my responsibility anymore” after SIX SEASON of—okay you see, i’m getting off topic) 

anyway, the season closer was that octavia went through the anomaly, which (this is important!) a fair amount of the main characters saw (gabriel, hope, echo, and bellamy, namely) bellamy, in that same season closer, was running through the woods alone, yelling for octavia. season ending. good hook!

and then.... nothing.

seriously. the hiatus between season six and season seven of the hundred (the LAST season of the show, EVER!) there was next to no promotional material. no bts pics, no tweets from cast/crew, nada. nothing. which stirred up quite a bit of complaint in the fandom—one, it’s the last season, can we not have some promotion, and two, it’s the last season, and there’s no promotion by cast/crew/the cw, why is this happening?

seriously. the season seven teaser clip that got aired between episodes on the cw was released before the trailer. it became a meme, how long we were waiting for the trailer. like it was... what, 19, 20 days before the season aired, and all we had was like a stitched-together character poster?

there was also some drama throughout the hiatus, ft. the fandom getting on the news for not getting content in the hiatus, jessica harmon (who plays a guest role, nylah, and whose brother plays murphy) getting snappy at fans on twitter for asking for promotion, and isaiah washington, who played thelonious jaha (a character that died in s5) telling a minor (and also going into their dms!) that he’d call the fbi on them, good times, the 100 fandom is a Disaster and i live a nightmare every day

and then. the trailer drops.

which starts “where is bellamy?” like. people. were SEARCHING for bellamy. people were trying to be optimistic, but rapidly people were also coming to, like, the worst conclusions. however as always t100 fandom did have some jokes, so like, ya know

people were looking forward to other promo: the poster, and also, there’s this tradition of countdown bts photos for the show, and since bob and eliza (who plays clarke, the female lead) just got married, people had high hopes! 

and then came the poster (which had no bellamy, or characters at all) and then the OFFICIAL poster (which had characters, but still no bellamy) which started the hashtag #whereisbellamyblake, because, seriously, he’s the male lead and it’s the last season. also bonus screengrab of this from jroth (the lead writer’s) mom’s twitter lmao

so people rightfully had questions: the excuse that was being given was that including bellamy would be “spoilery,” except, like, it’s a poster? and the only shot of him in the trailer was him being dragged along the ground despite the fact that he was the thumbnail for the trailer? like, okay, which led to some twitter meltdowns, and some more, and again people were fearing the worst, because like, see lexa, jason has a BAD track record when it comes to fan-favorite ships. people were HEATED, people were RANTING, it was a MESS

also. the edited posters were pretty funny, okay, then bob and eliza, bless them, dropped some a+ twitter content, and things calmed down a bit

and then, countdown days started. usually, the order goes bob on one more day, and eliza on show day. except this year? eliza was one more day. which. people were going nuts. because it was a tradition! and keeping BOB out of a behind the scenes where there weren’t any spoilers? it just seemed unprofessional—especially damning, given jason’s past history with ricky whittle, who played lincoln, and was bullied off the set. people were worried that, one, this was affecting bob’s storyline, and two, well. remember that thing about fan-favorite ships? here’s a whole thread of that, btw. and a video of ricky whittle, here.

it is a genuine fear of a lot of the fandom that jason will, in all his pettiness, not give in to bellarke. which is kind of nutty, given that it’s the core relationship of the show, and he himself had said that he’d been foreshadowing it. bellamy and clarke are literally “the head and the heart” of the show.

oh, yeah. so hard cut to the showday pic.

cast. crew. writers. everyone.

except? no bob.

people lost their gotdamn MINDS.

there’s a lot of subsequent drama; the fact that apparently they’re pushing through clarke/gaia (even though there was ??? no previous evidence of this??) still no bellamy for four episodes (seriously, it took clarke, like, two episodes to even cotton onto the fact that he was missing at all)  a lot of criticism of jason (he’s shamed shipping and also, lmao, is trying to push through a spinoff?) and just. Yeah. 

i’m really burnt out when it comes to the 100 fandom; i’ve unfollowed a lot of the t100-centric tumblrs i used to follow, once the show is over i’m gonna unfollow a lot of the twitters and just, yeah. i care about bob and eliza, and i care about bellarke, but the fandom wears me out and the unprofessionalism of a lot of what’s gone down has kind of just? made me lose interest? they’re recycling storylines (esp centering around octavia and bellamy) and continuity doesn’t seem to really be a priority. i just... yeah. i mostly care about bellarke and the fact that i bond a lot with one of my real-life friends through this show. if bellarke doesn’t happen, i’m gonna be like Really... disappointed, mad, irritated? like. imagine. it’s literally So Easy. the actors got married, ffs, you’ve gotten in trouble for ending two ships via very tragic death (in the same season, even!) like how is this Not Clicking

anyway that’s my (entirely too long) rant about t100!!!!

[elixir448]

This past week: A summary

1. We have had an influx of promos over the past few days, mainly compiled of footage from seasons 1 and 2 with some additional unseen footage from season 3 that the fandom has been alternately salivating and freaking out over.

 • We have another shot of what the fandom is 100% sure is Rio’s hand, placing a gun (notably not his infamous golden gun) in front of a computer. (https://www.instagram.com/p/B8bs4_9JzuS/?igshid=7jx2mam2rss7).

The majority of the voiceover from Beth is from quotes in seasons 1 and 2, although she does state “This person that you knew, they’re just gone”, potentially in the same scene as in the promo below with the customer.

• Beth is clearly struggling with the guilt and trauma of shooting Rio in another promo (https://ggfanatic0.tumblr.com/post/190764519813/new-teaser), wondering in front of a perturbed customer “It’s a shock when someone dies. The lights go out. One last breath. It’s so weird. Cause like did you ever know him at all?”

• Another promo (https://twitter.com/NBCGoodGirls/status/1225926582839074818) with a voiceover from Rio sent the fandom into a frenzy, as we all attempted to discern what he was saying. Our collective efforts have unveiled:

“She tried to put me away.

But she didn’t think things through.

You wanna be the king you gotta kill the king (1x10)

I know her entire bag of tricks

She’s no good / she’s my girl (You guessed it, we are freaked. It most likely is she’s no good)

But we both know how this ends.”

Could he be speaking to Turner? Or another character?

• A Ruby and Stan centric promo was also released, compiled of footage from seasons 1 and 2 (https://twitter.com/NBCGoodGirls/status/1225926715966255104). While there was season 3 footage of Ruby involved with making counterfeit cash and the girls entering a graveyard with spades, there was no new footage.

• We got our first look at JT in season 3, with the girls standing in front of him at the Qwik Cash counter and him saying “you just levelled up” and the girls laughing and smiling. (https://hereliesbethboland.tumblr.com/post/190709556247/came-across-this-its-not-really-new-hahah)

2. A video where members of the cast (Retta, Christina Hendricks, Mae Whitman, Reno Wilson and Matthew Lillard) answered questions regarding season 3 became available.

• Interestingly, certain segments of this video have the voices of the cast blanked out, potentially due to spoilers.

• A huge emphasis has been placed on the efforts the girls will exert in making their counterfeit cash appear legit.

• It has been confirmed that Ruby works in the nail salon for access to chemicals, Beth in the paper store for access to printers and Annie’s valet job was chosen as she would be in receipt of many $1 bills.

• Reno dropped something interesting when asked why people should watch season 3, stating that “extraneous family members get pulled in”. Could we be meeting the extended Hill family or new family members of other characters? Could this refer to the kids being drawn into what their parents are trying to protect them from?

• Matthew Lillard gushed over Manny Montana. He also enjoyed teasing fans by saying that he knows what happened to Rio’s characters after 2x13, that Beth are Dean’s relationship is “ever growing” and Beansie is sexier than Brio. Lol.

• Mae implied that Annie may be slightly less impulsive and more well-rounded, while retaining the qualities that we love!

• Christina and Mae touched on the topic of when the girls should stop, whether they want to stop and their changing reasons for being involved with crime, with Christina stating that their reasons may be more selfish.

3. According to IMDB, Rob Heaps will play Dr Josh Cohen from 3x02 to 3x11. Whose doctor could he be? Or do the girls rope him into their business?

4. A promotional video titled Rinse and Repeat: Get the Dirt on Good Girls was released, featuring 2 ladies in a laundromat discussing and gushing over the last two seasons of the show, with some additional comments from other viewers in the laundromat.

5. The second episode of The Influence of Good Girls, featuring Manny Montana, and aptly named The Crime King was released.

• Manny said that he likes when Beth “gets the jump on Rio”.

• He views Beth and Rio’s motives as being no different, as he has a son and a family as well. He also feels that just as Beth is enamoured with the world that Rio exists in, Rio is also enamoured by the world she occupies.

• He addressed the car scene between Beth and Rio in 2x12, stating that he thinks Rio both does and does not view Beth as work; he viewed her as work from day 1 but he slipped at some point.

• He discussed with Jenna Bans how Rio could ever work with and trust Beth after the events of 2x13, stating that “the way they wrote it, it just made perfect, perfect, perfect sense” and “it’s so good”.

• He feels that season 3 is on a different level, with everybody going through something different and doing their own thing. This may imply that Rio has a few more scenes outwith the girls?

• His favourite storyline this season is Stan’s and we are now terrified for our favourite cinnamon roll.

• He admires Beth for having the balls to take on Rio and try to take over. “It’s a scary world she’s in.”

6. The third episode of The Influence of Good Girls, titled The Perfect Heist, was released. 

7. NBC continues to shock, by acknowledging that Good Girls exists and ramping up their promotional efforts, with billboards, posters and by mentioning the show on their official twitter.

Thank you to everyone who originally posted links to the above information or promo! Also, let me know if I’ve missed anything out!

[billy-hargrooves]

I'm also excited but also a little bit sad because I still think it will be over after s3. And i dont need s4 with new students. When will you start posting about s3 because of spoilers. Not everybody can bing watch all episodes.

Same Nonny, same!!!!

While on one hand I can't wait for s3 and believe me I have always been excited for it since it was clear that we would get a 3rd season and they have finished shooting at the end of september. Thankfulkt leaving us with a bit of spoilers thanks to some pics and inbetween with some more and then when they have started to publish at first the character teaser + promo pics and then a bit later the promo photoshooting pics...

God, when I saw Malick with Nadia and Omar, I was like: What? Please. No.😩

Then the promo poster with blood on Guzman - that was when I slightly started to panic that he is probably going to die 😭 - only to feel a bit better after the trailer and teaser - oh and the interviews of the cast. So yes, I'm utterly enthusiastic as you can see and excited to find out what happened to Polo, if we will get some needed answers and especially for all Guznadia scenes. Let them only be a few seconds long, I'm here for all of it!!! ❤

On the other hand I'm a bit sad myself.

I try not to cause I don't want to ruin s3 for me, by getting sad over a potential last season  before I haven't watched s3 and the end of the this season cause so far we always had an open ending and although this time, we were told that we would get an epilogue (normally that's a way to end a story), everybody is only focusing on how they will graduate at the end, how their school time and therefore their time at Las Encinas will be over... so it would make sense to end that part of the story with an epilogue to show us what the kids are up to in their future.

The truth is: I have no idea if we will get another season or not 🤔.

But what I'm sure of is that neither the rumours of a greenlit s4 + 5 and a new cast are true.

So I was trying to remember how it was after s1, what I read about it (I have started to watch Élite far later than October) and then after it was clear that there would be a 2nd season etc.

And this brings me to, that except when we were told that there would be 3rd season on that press conference for s2, Netlfix Spain has never been very communicative about Élite as Netflix and any of their ... mostly use to be.

For example:

It was season ones open ending that was giving us hope and lead us to belive that they would hopefully going to continue the story.

At the end it took them weeks (or more) after they have published amazing numbers of more than 20 million views for s1 and ten thousands of asks if there would be a s2, before they annoced the 2nd season.

In truth they have greenlit both s2 +3 and the cast was already having the scripts in November to be able to start the table reads at the end of November/ begining of December.

Also Georgina, Claudia and Jorge have been cast.

So was it always planed that Élite would have 3 season? Why not telling us then? Neither about the planed 3 seasons (Dark, Baby, The Rain have all announced to have only 3 seasons) or that they would shoot the 2 seasons one after another?

Why not telling us now that Élite is over?

And if that's the case. Why the amount of press work for a finished series after the bit of press work they did for s2 was enough? Élite s2 had the same amount of viewers, 20 million and a huuuge boost in popularity.

And aside from all of that. For me it was always all about the story. I have said it many times before: I don't think they can solve everything in 8 episodes.

And I would love to continue to watch their journey and interestingly being asked about a potential 4th season after they have announced the 3rd one, bkth showrunners said that they have plenty ideas to continue the story!

So, I have no idea what to think???

Sorry for my extrem long rent 😶 but I wanted to write a post about getting a s4 or not anyway.

Oh and due to the fact that I will be working in home office, I will be able to bing s3 on Friday and post about it. Of course I will tag everything as #elite s3 spoilers 😊!!!!

DrSilverfish S14 Meta Masterpost

Well, what a wild ride S14 has been. An extremely rich season for meta, and one of the best seasons of the show, ever (in my view, YMMV). It’s been a blast sharing it with all of you, week by week, on the hoof. Thanks for all the discussion, shared sleuthing and musing, gifs, art, fic, meta and more. 

And thanks also to all the readers of, and commenters on, this blog. Reading the tags and replies on Tumblr is still one of the best things. 

High points? The writers’ room’s use of mythology (Greek, Biblical, folktale) this season has been rich and satisfying, but in particular their borrowing of Jung’s psychological drama of the encounter between the Self and the Shadow-self, and his interpretation of alchemical writing as representative of the journey of the psyche towards self-integration (for the alchemists, the journey of the soul to God) has been really beautifully crafted. 

Also, all the call-backs to previous seasons and episodes of the show, as part of Dabb’s Ouroboros narrative, used to shed light both on the past and the present; even down to matching the call backs numerologically for more snake-swallowing-its-own-tail symmetry. 

Stand out episode for me was 14x14 Ouroboros. Steve Yockey is a kick-ass writer and a master of subtext. Noah Ophis the Queer Gorgon was not only a fabulous queer villain but the call-back to Nick the Siren and 4x14 Sex and Violence really reflected on and demonstrated the show’s evolution, as we near the end of the spiral (it’s ages since any female characters have been called a “bitch” or a “whore” for one thing - phew).

Also a shout-out to Meredith Glynn’s 14x08 Byzantium for its lovely re-encounter re Castiel’s relationship to Heaven, his heart-crushing (and uber fairy-tale romantic) deal with The Shadow, as well as for revisiting the awesome Lily Sunder and adding Anubis to the SPN God-machine! 

And to Davy Perez 14x11 Damaged Goods for the most subtextually obvious but also tragically heart-breaking, reference to the Ma’lak box as the closet, thanks to Dean showering sparks all over Donna’s 1970s cowboy porn poster collection whilst building it. 

Andrew Dabb and Meredith Glynn’s 14x13 Lebanon was excellent too; lovely script, outstanding performances from the original Winchester family, a beautiful little side-meditation on who Castiel would have been, if he hadn’t raised Dean from perdition, and some more alchemical symbolism via the “pearl of great price” (AKA the Philosopher’s Stone). 

Meghan Fitzmartin and Yockey’s 14x15 Peace of Mind, was also stand-out, for its biting satire both of MAGA and Heaven, its hilarious whammied Sam (truly one of Jared’s great performances, up there with his Lucifer in The End) and its lashings of queer subtext (from Dean’s fascination with, and anxiety about,  the “snake”, to Castiel’s mirrored heavy improv involvement with Sunny’s dick-worshiping erotic epistles). 

Finally, Dabb and Sgriccia delivered a gorgeously shot, and epic, finale in 14x20 Moriah, the culmination of Dean’s long and painful encounter with the internalised Ghost of John Winchester in his psyche, as he faced, Ouroboros style, a yellow-eyed “monster” who had (apparently) killed Mary Winchester (again) and THE Father, ordering him to continue his own father’s revenge cycle. Chuck Shurley, avatar of God, ultimate dead-beat Dad and author of the SPN multi-verse, is set up to be the meta villain for the final season, as his characters struggle for true free will. 

Here’s hoping MIRROR UNIVERSE and all those zombies busting out of their graves are indeed a giant neon metaphor for the culminating revenge of SPN’s eternal queer subtext.    

Low-point of the season; re-fridging Mary Winchester as part of the Ouroboros narrative, even though Glynn and Berens handled her “death” episodes (14x17 and 14x18) beautifully. Re-staging the drama of Azazel, fathers and sons, as part of the story spiral was, of course, irresistable, and profound for our male hero characters; I get it. But, as I am still convinced this is a fake-out, Mary is not really dead, and we will see her again (see my meta from 14x17 onwards) I’m willing to wait before I write my final meta on the show’s relationship to the feminine principle (spoiler alert, a load of suckage along the way, with the possiblity for a, somewhat contingent, writers’ room redemption arc!). I am hoping both Amara, as the feminine God-principle, and Mary (they are already fundamentally linked) will return in the culmination of the narrative. Symbolically, even given this is, indelibly, a narrative about men and the bonds between them, that return of/ integration with the feminine would be the alchemical and Jungian culmination of the journey, and I’m hoping that’s what Dabb is going deliver; via Jack (Hermes/ Mercury) as the mediating principle.  

As I’m sure you all are, I’m in equal measure gutted and excited that S15 is to be the final turn of the spiral. 

Look forward to sharing all the highs and the lows, as TFW go up against Chuck Almighty himself, with Death, The Empty and metaphysical key Jack Kline Novak Winchester in the mix.

Seven (35) Days of Films - December

Why did I think I could keep up with this blog while also working retail in December... Anyway, Happy New Year! Here is a recap of everything I watched in December.

Spencer

The marriage between Princess Diana and Prince Charles has long since grown cold. Though rumors of affairs and a divorce abound, peace is ordained for the Christmas festivities at the queen's estate. There's eating and drinking, shooting and hunting. Diana knows the game, but this year, things will be profoundly different.

This movie is phenominal, it immediately sets the tone with a sign reading ‘Keep noise to a minimum, they can hear you’ which tells you everything Steven Knight has to say about the Royal Family and Diana’s role within it. Kristen Stewart is nothing short of amazing, right down to her mannerisms of looking through her eyelashes and hiding her face in her shoulder. The costumes are stunning, the score is amazing; the score sounding somewhere inbetween a spy movie and a horror movie. The reveal of the context of the poster is heartbreaking. All in all, it is maybe my favourite movie of 2021 and I am on the lookout for essays analysing the Diana/Anne Boleyn comparisons.

Rating: 5/5

Spider-Man: Far From Home

Peter Parker and his friends go on a summer trip to Europe. However, they will hardly be able to rest - Peter will have to agree to help Nick Fury uncover the mystery of creatures that cause natural disasters and destruction throughout the continent.

I am very late to the game on this one, considering it is the first marvel movie I’ve watched since Black Panther almost two years ago. Yes, I only watched it after seeing a video recap and going ‘hey, that actually looks pretty cool for an MCU movie’ so I knew everything going in. But, I actually really liked it and I am excited to watch No Way Home (even though I know the biggest spoilers because I can’t let myself be surprised by anything).

Rating: 3

Inside No. 9 - Season 6

Anthology series which mixes dark humor with genres like crime, horror or drama. The show invites viewers into some very different No.9s, where the ordinary and mundane rub shoulders with the extraordinary and macabre.

Despite this being the latest installment of my favourite series, I don’t have much to say. All of the episodes are good, but there wasn’t one that stood out more than the others for me. That being said, Wuthering Heist and Hurry Up and Wait were my favourites of this season.

Let It Snow

A snowstorm hits a small midwestern town on Christmas Eve, bringing together a group of highschool students. They soon find their friendships and love lives colliding, and and Christmas morning, nothing will be the same.

All I’m going to say is that you can tell that this was created by John Green, and I don’t mean that in a good way.

Rating: -4

Single All The Way

Desperate to avoid his family's judgment about being single, Peter persuades best friend Nick to pose as his boyfriend on a trip home for the holidays.

It’s perfectly fine, I’m a sucker for a fake dating plot. A lot of wierd TaskRabbit promo (which I didn’t realise was an actualy company).

Top 10 Klaroline Fandom Moments

This is it guys. Tomorrow is the beginning of the end. With Klaroline coming back tomorrow, I’ve been thinking a lot about the past 7 years and all the great memories I’ve made in the Klaroline fandom and I thought it’d be cool to flashback to some of my favorite moments this fandom has been though starting with number 10 and counting all the way back to number 1...

10. The Originals

More like the announcement of The Originals. Ever since they were introduced, fans (especially Klaroline fans) had been begging for the Original fam to get the spotlight they deserved. When it was first announced that the Originals were getting a spin off, I was the first person to say how excited I was because 1) Klaus is my favorite and 2) it opened the gate to making Klaroline more that just a supporting ship. Many other people in the fandom agreed. There were so many fanmade trailers and manips that kept the hope for Klaroline alive even though the writers stupidly tried to keep them apart for 4 seasons. I mean who can forget the iconic fanmade Klaroline/Originals poster that made it in an actual magazine! 

9. Comic Con 2016

Probably the most unexpected attack of Klaroline feels I’ve ever had in my life was in 2016 when Candice and Joseph were at the same SDCC party together much less ENDED UP IN 3 DIFFERENT PICTURES TOGETHER. No one was expecting Jodice to interact because... well... the cast hates giving us what we want. But out of the blue we were graced with these horribly lighted and Persia filled pictures that to any other fandom may have been nothing but to us it was HUGE that they were even breathing the same air!

8. The Meltdown Post 5x11

Watching 5x11 live for the first time is still one of the best times I’ve had watching TV in my entire life. Seeing Klaus and Caroline kiss after YEARS of waiting was the most rewarding experience (even though they havent breathed the same air since). I remember so vividly watching that scene and screaming and crying and jumping up and down and I don’t think and moment of TV will ever give me that level of excitement ever again. But to make it better, I loved seeing everyone else in the fandom react to it as well. Knowing that after all the years of waiting that we all rejoiced together at the same time was such a cool thing to experience that I’ll cherish forever. 

7. British Acting Lessons

This video was iconic and legendary in the Golden Age of the Klaroline fandom. Oh how I wished they would have made a part 2...

6. TVD endgame

Going into the TVD series finale the only hint from Julie about Klaroline is that we would “sort of” see them which was easily taken to mean “you’re gonna be let down” because we had been let down so many times that it was almost second nature... BUT BOY WERE WE WRONG. Seeing that Caroline’s last scene on TVD being her smiling at a letter from Klaus with Alaric saying “that’s the beginning of another story” was more than I could have even dreamed of. With no promise that The Originals would even be picked up for season 5 or that Candice would even crossover at all, in that time, the entire Klaroline fandom took that ending as a sign of endgame in the future. The promise that Klaus was still waiting “however long it takes” and that their story was only just beginning wasn’t a “and they lived happily ever after” ending but it was pretty dang close which was more than I could have ever imagined. 

5. Shooting the end of Season 4

Along with the British Acting Lessons, Joseph and Candice made it so clear that big things were in store for Klaroline. Knowing that they were shooting 4x13, 4x14, 4x17, 4x18, 4x19, and 4x23, the fandom was in full swing and we were THRIVING. Seeing all the BTS photos and watching slowly to see how all this new Klaroline content would unfold was such a thrill. There was always new content from the creators and the fans and it really was the most fun time to be in the Klaroline fandom. Of course with it all ending with Klaus intending to be her last love and waiting for her however long it takes, that was more than enough to sustain us throughout the Great Klaroline Drought that is finally almost over. 

4. The Summer Before S4

This time was so especially important to me and I am so thankful for it because this was the time when I hastily binge watched all of TVD SPECIFICALLY for Klaroline. Before I even watched the show, I can say I shipped Klaroline. If it weren’t for this amazing fandom with their fan vids I never would have known about this beautiful ship or even watched the show at all. I remember watching a Klaroline vid and thinking “wow they have so much chemistry and seem like something I would totally ship I need to check out this show.” I without a doubt watched this entire show solely to see Klaus and Caroline interact and I still do to this day. I remember waking up at like 5 in the morning one day in August before school just because I had finally gotten to the episode where Klaus appeared and I’ve been hooked to that man ever since. Though I didnt join the fandom until season 4, I am so thankful for the fans that came before me because it was THEM that led me to Klaroline and have absolutely changed my life. 

3. The Date

Finding out that Klaus was gonna be Caroline’s date to Miss Mystic Fall put the entire KC fandom into a frenzy. I remember everyone speculating about what would happen and while most of our headcanons never happened, those scenes are still some of my absolute favorites. During that time the whole fandom was so positive about Klaroline becoming canon and everything was going our way and it was so much fun. We’ve been though so many hard times as Klaroline fans but the weeks before 4x07 were definitely some of the greatest times in the Klaroline fandom when things were actually going our way. But I’ll never forgive Plec for cutting out that scene where apparently THEY KISSED and all we got from it was that iconic still....

2. Shooting The Originals 5x13

Knowing that Klaroline was gonna be in more scenes together and SEEING THEM ACTUALLY FILM THEM are two completely different things. I remember when the videos from them filming in NOLA were released that I actually couldnt believe it. It had been so rare to see Candice and Joseph in the same picture together and have it not be a manip but to have actual footage of them playing Klaus and Caroline in the TO finale was such a triumphant moment. Knowing that no matter what the final episode of The Originals will end with Caroline in NOLA just like Klaus said he wanted in the pilot was such a great way to bring things full circle. Seeing the videos it was like I could feel the fandom rising from the ashes. I’m so thankful that the KC fandom never once gave up on them but we finally are getting the respect we deserve. 

1. The Australian Promo

If you’ve been in this fandom for a while you already know how ICONIC this promo was. Before 5x11 aired, all we knew was that Klaus was making an appearance and that he was gonna have at least one scene with Caroline. THEN the Australian promo for 5x11 dropped and THE FANDOM WENT NUTS. Before the promo a couple optimists guessed that maybe Klaus and Caroline would finally kiss but after how horrible the writers of TVD and TO had been to us since The Originals started, most of the fandom was super doubtful. But about 24 hours before the episode actually aired the promo dropped in Australia what confirmed that in fact Klaroline was gonna kiss. Usually I hate spoilers but having a 24 hour notice before your OTP officially becomes canon gave way to the best experience in fandom I’ve ever had in my life. The entire fandom was so HYPE and we were all 100% prepared for the Klaroline kiss we had been waiting YEARS for (lol we WEREN’T ready for the hot Klarosex though). Seeing that tiny glimpse of Klaus and Caroline leaning into kiss in that iconic gif from the promo still gives me chills. I have never seen a fandom so excited and hyped as I did in those short 24 hours and honestly it was my favorite experience as a Klaroliner.

It’s been a great 6 years being part of this fandom. I can’t wait to see how it all will end. Let me know some of your favorite Klaroline fandom memories and why! I’d love to reminisce all the good and bad times we’ve been through together. I can’t wait to take on this one last ride with my Klarofam.

Additional info about this episode:

“Speaking to IGN at NYCC, Anderson said William will have an "elusive" relationship with his parents, showing up by the fifth episode.” (X)

“Anderson told me the actor “looks like a normal kid” and Duchovny offered this cryptic tease when I asked him which of his parents William most resembles: “He resembles two people that aren’t Mulder and Scully. And when you read this back [after watching the episodes] you’ll figure this out.” (X)

“Anderson tells TV Guide that the search for William will bring Mulder and Scully "closer together," although she acknowledges that Scully is much more passionate about finding him. But while Mulder isn't as invested in finding his son, he remains devoted to being a much-needed support system for Scully throughout this trying mission.” (X)

Guest stars:  Haley Joel Osment

Additional info about this episode:

“You’re going to find out a lot more about his past,” Mitch Pilleggi told Ausiello just before taking the stage. “Fans will find out who he is, where he comes from and why he is the way he is.” Pileggi promises that the installment — Season 11’s sixth (out of 10) — will reveal his cranky FBI boss to be much more than just a guy “who sits in the office bitching at Scully and Mulder,” adding, “Ultimately, he is their champion.” (X)

“there is some speculation that Osment might be joining the X-Files cast as the younger version of Skinner himself. Especially considering what series’ creator Chris Carter had to say after The X-Files Season 11 trailer was released at New York Comic-Con on October 8.At the NYCC panel, Carter revealed the backstory episode will feature Skinner as a young man, and now TVLine ventures a guess the role could go to Osment. At the same time, Empire Online has his character pegged as a possible relative of Skinner’s.” (X)

“I’m so excited because in previous episodes in the original run of the show, you had one episode where Mulder was trying to resign, you had Skinner talking about his experience with the paranormal in Vietnam," Pileggi explained. "They go there. So it’s really cool. I’m very excited about it, I just read the script and it’s really cool.” (X)

Promos: FOX - Promo #2 - Hungarian - Russian Promo pictures: XFiles news - SpoilerTV Sneak Peeks: #1 - #2 Additional info about this episode:

Episode 7 sounds like a winner, and we mean “sounds” figuratively because it seems like there won’t be much sound to hear in it at all.“It probably has 15, 20 lines of dialogue in the whole episode,” Duchovny said. “It was really a ballsy move on everybody’s part. I think putting up an hour of television on a network that has maybe 20 lines in it and still be riveting, I’m sure not all of us believed it. It’s one of our more special episodes that we’ve done in a long time.”Anderson said [...] “It’s really interesting as an actor to work on something that has no dialogue, because you don’t want to end up miming what you would say were you to have dialogue,” (X)

   Episode 11x08 Title: Familiar (X) Airdate: March 7, 2018 Written by: Benjamin Van Allen Directed by: Holly Dale (X) Synopsys: Mulder and Scully investigate the brutal animal attack of a little boy in Connecticut while suspecting darker forces are at play.

A Family Affair…Also in the episode, David Duchovny’s daughter West makes her acting debut. Carter says, “It was the first time I ever worked with her because it was the first time she'd ever worked; this was her screen debut. She came in, she was poised, she was prepared. She also made it her own; she came in with, you know, some attitude and that attitude was also a part of the character. She had worked on it hard.” Keep your eyes peeled for the young actress as "Maddy." (X)
