Yes, Steve Yockey (one of the people) who wrote Supernatural also wrote Dead Boy Detectives. Yes, it's supernatural. Yes, it's gay. Please go check it out and help us punch netflix in the face.

there are genuinely a lot of shows on netflix (and other streaming services, but the main one I'm talking about is netflix) that i would LOVE to watch right now, but i can't help but wonder why i would bother? they are probably just going to cancel it anyways, and the ones they don't cancel (umbrella academy) have some of the worst endings

cancelling dead boy detectives hit me harder than any other cancellation or ending and i really don't know what to do about that.

this this this and that doesn't even *count* the ones that are *already* cancelled looking through some of the stuff they recommend for me like -- ooh perhaps i'd like shows from their critically acclaimed tv showcase -- such as lockwood and co or maybe shadow and bone oh wait wtf netflix save lockwood and co save shadow and bone save dead boy detectives dead boy detectives

Honestly, I wonder if this is all on purpose. Just a marketing scheme Netflix is trying out.

Step 1: Get Variety to announce that you're canceling a show without officially saying it yourself.

Step 2: Fans of the show spam the internet with hashtags and petitions while streaming the show constantly. Hundreds of articles are written about how stupid you are and how outraged and dedicated the fans are.

Step 3: Announce that you've changed your mind or that the article was "misinformation" - either way the show gets renewed.

Step 4: Hundreds more articles are written about this "crazy" moment.

Basically: a massive amount of free promotion. Truthfully, can we really put it pass them?

To be honest, I wouldn't even be mad if gets the show renewed.

Here's hoping that it's true and we're just in Step 2 of the scheme.

have also wondered this myself they'd have to really spin it with a lot of plausible deniability because it would be a really shitty move on their part like *incredibly* shitty but i would be so happy if they renewed the show (and honestly -- them taking this route as a way to change their minds and simultaneously save face sounds better than not… i guess) dead boy detectives save dead boy detectives renew dead boy detectives

charles rowland but crystal is a close second i think they both would want the autonomy of being able to drive themselves and i think charles would feel more strongly about the need to do so whereas crystal is more likely to get an uber That said love the idea of edwin surprising everyone by having learned to drive when he was alive though and it would have been a useful skill to have during the war polls dead boy detectives
