TIMESTAMP ROULETTE the sandman episode 10: lost hearts

I want the two Deaths of DC and MCU to meet!

Death of the Endless and Rio Vidal | Lady Death of the MCU

IMO they have some sort of friendship and sisterhood.

The Sandman: Season 2 | Behind the Scenes Sneak Peek

[westofessos]

So I finished Dead Boy Detectives a few days ago and I desperately need a season two and Netflix is completely fucked and probably won’t renew it (viewership is apparently very low) so I’m just here to say hey, please watch this show! It’s so good! It’s fun and weird and funny and queer and kind of shockingly violent and gory, and all of the characters are absolutely delightful. I don’t normally go for supernatural stuff, but knowing it was in the Sandman universe (also, I highly recommend watching The Sandman first if you haven’t, it’s even better, but also we’re on a time crunch here because again, Netflix is fucked, so if you don’t have the time you should go straight to DBD) made me want to watch it. I watched most of it in one sitting and I’m absolutely obsessed now.

So please watch it! Watch it twice, watch it three times, tell your friends and family to watch it! Honestly even if it’s not your thing and you’re not interested but you would still like to help, you could just mute it and have it on and not even watch. I might do that myself because I have other things to watch (and also I don’t want to get sick of it by watching so many times).

Anyway. Bottom line, please watch Dead Boy Detectives! Because Netflix is a fucked up company that cancels everything if the viewership isn’t super high and I need a second season so badly.

*sigh*

Ravens in raincoats And big grins on killers Bright shiny rubies And gold eyes that glitter Death in the night with the moon on her wings These are a few of my favorite things

(don't hate too hard on my shitty little song rewrite)

20 reasons to watch Dead Boy Detectives

Queer people, lots of awesome queer people

Very binge-able

CATS. You will see A LOT of cats. Who doesn't love cats?

Niko is the DEFINITION of AUTISM 🔥

Lots of twinks and badass ladies

Awesome acting, perfect cast

Loveable and charming characters

Angry Scottish lady played by Ruth Connell (she hates paperwork)

Gay awakening via cat man

It's campy and quirky, in the best way possible

It's like a cross between Good Omens and Sherlock Holmes, paired with Sandman characters and lore

Kirby Howell-Baptiste returns as Death of the Endless (I love you Kirby!!)

Tragic and messy queer romance

The only acceptable version of the "bury your gays" trope (let them return as ghosts)

Everybody has trauma

EPISODE SEVEN KILLED ME AND THEN DANCED ON MY ROTTING CORPSE

Literally the perfect resolution. The ending is satisfying, all main subplots are resolved, yet it tempts a 2nd season

Authentic and respectful queer realization and coming out subplot

Likeable antagonists (except for David, fuck you David 🤬🤬)

Dead married couple on acid.

[nickandcharlie135]

Everyone please go watch Dead Boy Detectives!

We really want a renewal!

Keep watching it!

I want to see more of these fine people! 🙏

I like how in this era of excellent queer TV to replace the SuperWhoLock era, each light hearted comedy show of the trio has a dark queer mirror. Black Sails is to Our Flag Means Death, as Interview With The Vampire is to What We Do In The Shadows, just as The Sandman is to Good Omens.

I do find it odd how in each pairing its the supposed light hearted comedy show that has emotionally devastated its audience so far though...
