Someone’s lost an eye! I’m so amazed every time Paddy basically tells you to let it go. Simultaneously, Rhaenyra is playing quite a basic game: Lie hard, do not back down, and weaponize this word ‘treason’.

Not Toya saying "I made Mary and Shannon a couple" bc she just assumed based on the text that they **had** to be. I love her and she is so right.

I am going to need about 12 billion fix it / reunion fic now because Netflix is terrible and didn’t renew Warrior Nun, which was dirt cheap to make AND somehow still managed to pull the numbers it did with zero promotion.
And I am trying really hard not to side eye all the cancellations of diverse shows between HBO Max, Amazon Prime, and Netflix, but there is a pattern emerging that cannot be ignored — they’re all the racially diverse or LGBTQ+ shows getting the axe. Paper Girls, First Kill, the entire DCTV block, Batgirl, Tom Swift, Westworld, the Nevers, I’m Not Okay, Minx.
Warrior Nun S2 is just the latest one. It was set up to fail. They didn’t set up interviews for the cast, send it to reviewers, they put it between the Crown and Manifest S4, they didn’t promote it at Tudum. Simon Barry even said that they had zero promotion budget, and you could tell because we never got a release date, just “winter 2022.”
The fact that it did as well as it did, cracked the Global Top 10, and received high fan engagement and articles writing about it was a miscalculation on their part, and honestly I think an embarrassment to them. Because it shows how little they care about diverse shows that 1) don’t feature straight white male or 2) aren’t part of an existing IP/franchise. They were caught flatfooted when they realized how popular it could have been with just an ounce of support.
How do you kill things so prematurely, when you know there is an audience there? Even if they are renewed, shows aren’t safe, because they are reversing the season renewal. And in the case of HBO Max, they are making decisions that make zero sense - who kills shows that are mid-production or nearing the end of their production (Minx).
And why is it always us who gets cut first? It is never the straight white dude show. If something gets saved, it is the (maybe) gay white dude show. Like you can’t be 2 or more. You can only be one (1) and also that one show is all you get for representation.
And the fact that the decision makers are all conservative white dudes (Bezos, David Zaslav, and Reed Hastings) who love Trump and Elon Musk just makes me wonder if that is the goal in the first place.
Not to make money because they have enough. They just want to kill us by taking away all our representation in these shows, just to destroy our culture on purpose because they can take the damn hits to their belts.
I hate this. The promise of streaming as the safe haven for diversity was always a bit of a sham, but somehow this is worse, knowing the creative community wants to make these shows but studios don’t want to platform it. They’ll give us one or two seasons and then force the creators to abandon it with “you can’t shop it anywhere else for 3 years” clauses.
How the fuck are we supposed to see ourselves reflected in art if they keep taking our shows away from us? If not streaming, where the fuck do we go now?

i’m so fucking sick of streaming services/platforms and netflix in particular. unless it’s a show with a Star Name attached they provide little to no effort marketing it and the only way to get a chance at renewal is if somehow the show becomes a mega hit that breaks streaming numbers in an absurdly short time period with absolutely no support from the platform. they make renewal/cancellation calls after 1-2 MONTHS. it’s a miracle for a netflix original content to get past season 1 now and virtually unheard of to survive past season 2. as a result we have this graveyard collection of content that writers, directors, actors, everyone puts their heart and soul into that will never see the light of day again. despite being objectively GOOD content. at least with traditional tv networks shows that get canceled they have a chance at being picked up somewhere else as we’ve seen with brooklyn 99, manifest, supergirl. but with these fucking platforms like netflix they own total rights over the content and would rather burn their own money than sell a show.
if netflix just wants to produce movies, limited series and documentaries then go right fucking ahead. but these streaming services can’t continue getting away with taking all these shows and churning them out just to slaughter it especially when it’s content that upholds POC, LGBT and other diverse groups that get so little made for them in the first place.
