Two years.

Two years ago in the summer, I remember an account I follow retweeted a trailer for an upcoming show and I watched it and thought “hm interesting concept. There are ghosts and when music is played they can be seen hm.”

Late October, I was working on a school assignment but before I did I needed something on in the background. I remembered before my friend and I had said something about maybe we should watch this show that just had come out and in that conversation my friend had mentioned that one of the characters is gay so after that I was like “oh… didn’t know that but cool.” So for the background noise I decided “why not watch that show? It’s only 9 episodes, a quick watch, not a lot can happen.” And that show was Julie and the Phantoms.

I remember going into and just- all these stereotypes that were being portrayed right away I thought I knew how the story would go but to have them constantly break those stereotypes it made me love it. It was something different, something unique, something new.

In a time where the world was scary and unpredictable at its highest point in a generations lifetime, there was Jatp. And not to say, “Jatp single handled saved 2020” it was definitely a light in the darkness. That as shitty and terrifying the world was, there was this show. This show that had such lovable and well-written characters, compelling story, fascinating friendships and relationships to it, amazing music, stellar costumes, just- it was ticking all the boxes.

After finishing, I feel down the rabbit hole of watching anything and everything about it. Seeing the friendship this cast has with each other, the behind the scenes of everything made me love it even more.

After trying to convince people in my life to watch it bc omg how can you not watch this amazing show plus, I wanted someone to talk to about it with, I lasted like a week and I impulsively made this blog and I’ve never looked back.

Being a fantom is unlike any other fandom I’ve been in. The amount of creative work there is, the amount of discussion there is, it’s so amazing to see us all coming together bc we all have this one simple little interest.

I haven’t been in the fandom “since the beginning” but I have been here awhile and it’s been so fun. The clowning, the trending, the gates.

I love this little ghost show with all my heart. There’s always going to be apart of me that wants it to be continued because in my heart it’s going to be continued, I don’t want it to end. This little 9 episode show about a girl and her ghosts shouldn’t come to an erupt end because it is unlike any other show out there.

Two years ago today, Julie and the Phantoms came out and it’s been an incredible and emotional two years but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

#thought I was going to be a casual fan but came out a fantom so ya know things happen #…no a day goes by I think about how I watched Jatp for ‘background noise’ #happy aniversary everyone!! #jatp #julie and the phantoms #jatp netflix #fantoms #julie and the fantoms

*dusts off this blog because i rewatched jatp yesterday and have been looping the soundtrack all day today*

#hello can anyone hear me #fantoms where are you guys #jatp #julie and the phantoms #julie and her himbos

Consumed by JATP thoughts. So, it's canonical that people can hear the phantoms make music when all of them are together. But what about just one of them? Could Luke's parents hear him singing Unsaid Emily as they read the sheet music?

Like, I imagine you can't just hear one of them sing/play alone. But the fic potential if you can is off the charts. I have ideas, questions, THOUGHTS.

Just finished my rewatch of jatp. My perfrct track record of not crying during Unsaid Emily remains untouched. I will say though, I was very close to shedding a tear this time. However, I didn’t even cry during Stand Tall! I always cry during Stand Tall!

Anyways, I couldn’t stop thinking about all the headcanons and theories that us tumblr fantoms created and the little easter eggs we discovered while watching and rewatching the series. It makes me really appreciative of the fact that we had a sense of community during a time where a lot of us were alone, scared, and uninspired. Just like Julie, I felt a renewed sense of purpose and hope. I think that a lot of people felt the same after watching the show. Julie and the Phantoms is what inspired me to learn the piano, the ukulele, and it led me to getting a guitar. When I learned how to play the chords for the soundtrack, I was playing those songs nonstop. It really helped me brave through the unsure feelings that came along with the pandemic. It made me forget my fears about the future.

I don’t feel as hopeful about things as I did back then, but JATP will always be a land-marking point in my life. It represents newfound joy, reignited passion, and abundant vivacity. As someone who loves and is extremely passionate about music, this silly little netflix show really hit me in the most sensitive places. And while I remember having a bout of serious depression after finishing the series, (along with intense rage that while I was dealing with my depression at its lowest point, the cast of jatp was living what felt like my dream) the lessons I learned from the show were far more significant. It literally brought music back into my life, no joke.

The friends I made because of JATP will always have a special place in my heart. A lot of them don’t use tumblr anymore, and I don’t use it nearly as much as I used to, but I’m still so grateful to have been introduced to such kind, accepting, and funny people. The stories, theories, headcanons, fanfictions, moodboards, inside jokes, memes, and fanart we created will always be remembered and cherished. I’m still pro-cheesecake, I’m still highly allergic to sleeves, and every time I see an unnecessary or fake zipper, I think of my fellow tumblr fantoms.

I don’t think I’ll ever truly “get over” Julie and the Phantoms. It was the first thing that truly resonated with my spirit as a new adult. I was 19 and had dropped out of college, feeling completely lost and like I had nothing going for me. Going into lockdown because of the pandemic didn’t help with any of that, and I was aimlessly, endlessly scrolling on social media, hoping to find meaning and purpose. And one day, my friend posted a clip on snapchat of what she was watching on netflix. The guy was cute and it looked like him and the girl he was next to had a nice connection so I asked what show it was. That’s how I discovered JATP, almost 2 weeks after its release. I also just have an unhealthy attachment to the show and the characters so I refuse to let this media that speaks to my soul die.

All that being said, we really deserved another season. I think it would cure me entirely, if I’m being honest. Even if it was just a little Christmas special where they decorate a tree and do those mini stories like filler episodes of a cartoon series. Hell, I’d settle for an animated JATP episode. I just think we all deserve it after what we’ve been through not only as a fandom, but as human beings. I will never forgive netflix for it’s terrible job at promoting, because they only failed when it came to this show specifically. They managed to keep every other show, even ones far less deserving of acclaim and attention, afloat during and after the pandemic. The only reason JATP managed to get anywhere was solely the cast, creators, and fans. Paul Becker was on fucking overdrive, churning out BTS videos WEEKLY. Fanfiction writers were bursting at the seams with multi-chapter series and one shots about every possible scenario. We got things trending on twitter during the two most chronically online years. Fanart was being shared like crazy, and we had the instagram fantoms so confused by the memes that they retaliated and claimed they were superior.

Meanwhile, tumblr was in its shadowbanning era, and fantoms were in the TRENCHES trying to get their content to reach beyond mutuals and taglists. We received barely any appreciation, except for when we trended on twitter asking to renew jatp and on tumblr for jatp appreciation week. Let’s not forget when we thought Owen had a secret tumblr and we all started accusing each other of being him. I will never forget when we all rallied to get Madi to 1 million followers because we didn’t want her to become overshadowed by the boys and all the attention they were getting. We all watched their instagram lives and I will always love the tumblr fantoms who made gifs of the cutest moments from those. Everyone saw me shamelessly simp over Charlie with facial hair wearing a santa onesie. We created a whole Carrie redemption arc out of thin air, we created origin stories for Rose and the Petal Pushers, and we forced the creators of JATP to give us the official last names of Reggie, Alex, and Flynn (This adventure SPECIFICALLY!!!) We were ruthless in our efforts to uncover their last names. We used breadcrumbs to make theories and speculations, only to end up begging in every comment section and dm inbox we could to get Reggie Peters, Alex Mercer, and eventually—though much, much later—Flynn Taylor. We gave Willie more crop tops, we basically storyboarded a second season, complete with episode titles and songs! We uncovered the Sunset Curve EP using the grainiest photos in existence, we created a loose timeline surrounding everyone’s birthdays, deaths, and significant events. We orchestrated a fucking CONCERT TOUR for this band. Oh, and let’s not forget when Kenny and the boys went to Hawaii. That Hawaii trip was so eventful for the fantoms, you have no idea how serious I’m being unless you were there for it. That was something unlike anything else for so many reasons. There’s a lot more, but that’s the stuff that came to mind immediately.

Alex: Okay, are you like BLIND? You look nothing like me. First off, I'm way taller. Secondly, I DO NOT look so sleep deprived and lastly, if you could drag comb through that hair you're like a 7 on a good day and I've been told I'm a constant 10.
