Tomorrow night (4/30) at 7 pm ET, the NCIS fandom is going to hold a power hour on Twitter to target CBS. The goal is to trend #CBSDoesNotCare along with #SaveNCISHawaii.

🚨 DO NOT USE THE CBS HASHTAG BEFORE 7 PM ET ON 4/30 🚨

We NEED to trend so this campaign travels beyond the fandom. People using the CBS hashtag prior to the start time will make it more difficult for us to trend. So plan your tweets. But DO NOT send them before 7 PM ET on 4/30.

Click here if you need to know when power hour starts in your time zone.

Talking points/images/links for the trend:

#CBSDoesNotCare about:

(1) Their woman of color lead. Vanessa Lachey was the first female and first person of color to lead an NCIS franchise show. CBS blindsided her with the cancellation after she heavily promoted the NCIS franchise's 1000th episode, making three PR appearances in a single day.

(2) The LGBTQ+ community. CBS canceled a show with a lead lesbian couple and massive LGBTQ+ following on the last day of Lesbian Visibility Week after heavily promoting the #Kacy relationship on their socials.

CBS's cancellation of the show sent yet another reminder to queer people that we don't matter. In the words of Lucy Tara: "So why dream?"

(3) The NCIS Cast and Crew. The cast and crew learned about the cancellation at the same time that everyone else did. CBS didn't care that many people had moved to Hawaii permanently because of the show and had families who would be impacted by the cancellation.

(4) The local economy. The cancellation has resulted in the loss of 350-400 local jobs and will cause a substantial impact to the Hawaiian economy. (h/t Treesie) (link to video of news report with these numbers)

(5) Harassment Victims. Paramount/CBS ordered an NCIS show starring Michael Weatherly despite paying out $9.5 million in 2018 to settle harassment allegations against him.

The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.

Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

May you release the habit of being stuck, waiting for the "right time." May you start creating it with your choices.

the cashier at barnes & noble just gave me this duck at checkout and they said “i give these to children and people with a certain vibe.”

floored to know something about me aligns with this duck

I have an end-of-life patient to whom I spoke today. She burst out laughing and said, "It was all such fun. I just had so much fun." I wish this for everyone. I wish that we each would meet death laughing, with little regret and even less fear.

some of my favorite replies to this tweet. happy lesbian visibility week!

you should really be careful who you hang around. some girls will really try to take advantage of you. make you do whatever they want. stop getting hard

[halforcdad]

oh you think you're soooo fucking smart. with your fucking convoluted pretentious sentences

#this makes me laugh every fucking time

Look SO many things are better as an adult, but I do so very genuinely truly miss the childhood experience of going completely insane over something at the drop of a hat. As an adult you need the right cocktail of drugs weather humidity feng-shui and job prospects to feel like a piece of media can rip you into orbit. As a 14-year-old all it took was the worst Naruto reruns in the world playing at 10pm in your childhood basement. Unmatched experience. Irreplicable. Truly a once in a lifetime gift as an apology for the experience of being 14.

#this is why the loss of ncis hawaii is hitting me hard LMAO #im not just gonna find a show i love like that again at the drop of a hat

i remember begrudgingly getting into ncis: hawaii bc the youtube algorithm would not stop recommending me kate and lucy videos no matter how much i ignored them. i didnt know then that i'd find a pairing and a show that would mean so much to me.

this cancellation is not the first and it won't be the last, but it has left me particularly and extremely heartbroken.

kacy means a lot to me. it's the first ship that's made me feel something in a long time, maybe since high school. ill never forget the genuine excitement, the heartache, the happiness, they made me feel, especially in season 1. ill never forget this show and the ʻOhana i never knew id get so invested in.

i look back in my drafts and i still see posts i never finished about s2 and stuff i had yet to post about s3. i still had so much to say about the show. and they still had so much to give us. its a damn shame that they weren't even given a goodbye season.

was it shitty, corny copaganda at the end of the day? yes. was the writing sometimes rushed and nonsensical? absolutely. did they waste a whole season developing a character that had nothing to do with the core cast? you bet. but the cast and crew didn't deserve such a cruel, untimely cancellation without a chance to say goodbye (especially for shows that include a nasty dude who assaults his costars). the human aspect of it all is painful on its own. the show wasn't perfect at all, but it had heart, it had a good cast and crew, and i know i will miss it terribly.

most of all, i'll miss all the good times i had posting about the show and talking about it with everyone here. it's led me to meet some special people that i'm eternally grateful for and reignited a creative passion in me i haven't felt in a while. I'll always remember kacy and hold them dear in my heart. but I won't be giving up on them any time soon. even after the show ends, ill still be here, going insane over them and all the possibilities we won't get to see. kacy gave me such hope and happiness for the future, and i hope everyone keeps that spark alive.

#ncis hawaii #excuse me for getting emotional about a shitty cop procedural but damn #it was my fucking shitty cop procedural LMAO #i told myself id let myself be parasocial for as long as the grief lasted but strangely i dont think thats helping #not to be a weeaboo esque type but truly thank you to Hawaiʻi #a beautiful special place that deserves so much better

Not to be mean, but all offense to Sydney. I tried to watch it thrice and each time it was a struggle. NCIS Hawaii is far superior in every way. I’m real sad now. I didn’t think they’d cancel an NCIS franchise tbh. Sad times.

the fact that it's ncis and it's still getting cancelled despite good ratings is a struggle for me, ngl. the whole tv landscape is a shit show rn, but that only comforts me just a little bit. and respectfully, sydney is also very much not my cup of tea LMAO, but i would sooner let sydney continue before any of the other spin-offs theyre suddenly spitting out for no good reason. at least the sydney show has poc and similar hawaii men to women ratio going on, who needs to see gibbs prequel series

#ncis hawaii #ive really been looking back at s1 recently and hoping we could return to form in s4 #but thank god we have two unnecessary white dude spinoffs #im sad as hell ngl but we'll survive we always do #youre allowed to feel angry and tired about it tho

[halforcdad]

Station 19 and NCIS Hawaii both canceled in one month… I wonder what do they have in common….

I’ll watch a spin off with the four of them, can you imagine the chaos 🚒🩺🕵🏽👮🏼

the mayhem and makeouts would be insane for sure!

[halforcdad]

In Hollywood lesbians usually do not survive season 3 of anything…

esp not in today's tv landscape, but it doesnt mean we give up on their stories!

#and support real life lesbians! #and lean on your friends in this time

[halforcdad]

I hope they send our lesbian duo to Sydney lol

i would laugh so hard if kacy just appeared in Sydney fulltime with no explanation given, i mean thats kinda how the american jurisdiction works there isnt it

#ncis hawaii #again no offense to Sydney i dont want anyone to get cancelled #but im just baffled LMAO
