Btw For Anyone Who Doesnt Like To Use Twitter/x Or Just Doesnt Feel Like Using It, I Take Suggestions

Btw for anyone who doesn’t like to use twitter/x or just doesn’t feel like using it, I take suggestions on what to tweet! I made a new twitter just for #savedeadboydetectives but I mostly retweet current stuff. So if yall want to spread anything new just put it in the notes or tags or whatever and I’ll tweet it with the proper hashtags!

Email Campaign!

🕵️‍♂️ Today's the day! Excited to kick off the emailing campaign for Dead Boy Detectives. Check out the awesome infographic below for all the details! 📧🔍

Sending Mail To Netflix

Hey Everyone!

Although this isn’t a current top priority action for the campaign, we have noticed that people have been sending mail to Netflix using the wrong address!

Here is the correct mailing address if you would like to send something!

5808 W. Sunset Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90028

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

We also are aware of people discussing about sending Red Sea Glass and Spaghetti in the mail and we would like to ask that you DO NOT send those.

We understand the significance of both of those items in the show, but they are both Health and Safety risks and could discredit the entire campaign.

The red sea glass is a cute idea, but MANY PEOPLE have been only calling it "red glass" & do not realize that people on the internet will take things literally.

That could put people receiving the packages at risk to receive sharp objects which is a SAFETY RISK.

Spaghetti, cooked or not is a HEALTH RISK. Just don't send food in the mail please. <3

We want to be seen as a fierce but RESPECTED fandom please. <3

We got a suggestion by a lovely follower about paper origami bowties, with #SaveDeadBoyDetectives written on them and we think this is a lovely idea! We will share an infographic on how to make the bowties later on when sending things in the mail is discussed more thoroughly.

the worst part of all this is just how fucking messy the rights/ownership/etc are and how that makes saving it near impossible. like netflix didn’t just cancel it, it picked it up just to fucking doom it

Hey @netflix honestly how do you expect people to watch your shows and invest their time and money into you when EVERY SINGLE TIME you have something people love you just throw it away?

What’s the fucking point if a show with a 92/90 on Rotten Tomatoes and that’s made MULTIPLE Best Of lists isn’t even given a chance to grow?

Let’s look at some comparisons of a few other recent Netflix shows that got a second (or more) season, shall we? How are they stacking up on RT?

Stranger Things: 91/90

The Sandman: 88/80

Bridgerton: 84/74

Shadow & Bone: 83/84

Wednesday: 73/85

Locke & Key: 68/56

Avatar: The Last Airbender: 61/72

Fate: The Winx Saga: 45/82

So good reviews and critical acclaim won’t do it. Multiple weeks on your top 10 won’t do it, making the Nielsen top 10 won’t do it. Engagement from a devoted fan base won’t do it. I’m curious, what’s the metric here? Just because it wasn’t an instant runaway sensation, it’s not worth it to you? Is that what it takes?

Here’s a hot tip: if you want people to continue to pay for a subscription to your service, maybe give stuff a chance to grow. Maybe invest a bit of time into actually advertising a show before it premiers.

One of the most popular tweets about Dead Boy Detectives when it came out was someone saying they didn’t want to watch it because they didn’t trust you not to cancel it and break their hearts. There were THOUSANDS of people agreeing with it. Thousands of viewers, thousands of accounts you missed out on because people didn’t trust you. So how is this move going to help that?

How are you planning to get people to stick around when one of the best shows on your platform isn’t given a chance? How are you expecting them to ever give your shows a chance when you’re proving again and again that you can’t be trusted to follow through?

Dead Boy Detectives is a great show. It’s a quality product. The cinematography, the lighting, the sound design, the sets, the props, the COSTUMES. The scripts are good, the acting is great, the effects are believable. the cast and crew poured their hearts into it and you can see it on the screen. The characters are relatable and real. This is a show that is rewatchable. A show that is fun. A show that is entertaining. That has a good message, that deals with heavy topics with care and sensitivity. That’s got comedy and drama and horror and mystery. That’s got representation and diversity. That means something to people. Means A LOT to people. But that’s not important to you.

Dead Boy Detectives was THE reason I renewed my account. I watched it multiple times. (See how many magnifying glasses there are after my name up there? Fun fact: I added one every time I watched the full season.) I was even making a list of other shows and movies I was planning to check out. But that’s not happening any more, because I’m canceling my account as soon as this post is up. And I know I’m not the only one.

Okay but it doesn't make sense, I mean everything pointed to a renewal: they had season 2 practically already written and just 2 weeks ago George made all those cameos hinting at season 2, replying to those who asked about future plans for the characters things like "I already know how it ends", "We just have to wait to see this and that" and he seemed quite hopeful (and honestly like he knew that there was a future for the show and the characters).

Of course, I'm not saying he already knew and fooled us because we know how much he cares about the show and about Edwin and about the fandom, quite the opposite more likely he was informed later (and I can't begin to imagine how heartbroken he must be now, along with the rest of the cast), but what I don't understand is he must have asked for permission to talk about Dead Boy Detectives and Edwin's character and to say things like that, otherwise he could've simply redirected the answers to a more neutral ground instead of teasing, so I don't know, there's just something that doesn't sit well with me with this cancellation.
