I need Mary and Doug to show up at the inn so we can have an exchange that goes like:
Mary: Stede?!
Stede: Mary?!
Ed: Mary?
Stede: *remembering dinner at Anne and Mary Read's house* Ed...
Mary: *doing the math* Ed?
Stede: *affirmatively* Ed!
Ed: *confused, pointing at himself* Ed.
Doug: *also confused* ....I'll go wait in the carriage.

Be a Lighthouse - Fight For OFMD Season 3
Tumblr media
Hi everyone. The news of our cancellation is both incredibly devastating, and quite shocking considering the trajectory of the show and its fanbase. Everything looked like it was lining up in a positive fashion...only for the rug to get yanked out from under us.
I cried. I went numb. I stared at the wall for a while.
But then, something sparked. Like Ed who was resolved to his fate in S1Ep4 only to rocket back upwards, I was struck with a realization: we need to be a lighthouse!
Fanbases have campaigned before, and have gotten results. Sense8 was able to get a two hour finale to properly wrap everything up. Lucifer was able to get picked up by Netflix after being cancelled by Fox. Brooklyn 99 was able to get picked up by NBC after being cancelled by Fox. And many more examples.
Be it a proper renewal, a finale wrap that entails Ed and Stede's wedding, or the attention from another network, I say we fight that good fight. So, here are some ways we can be heard; if you think of any additional points, please feel free to add them!
If you don't cancel your Max Subscription, continue watching the show and leaving feedback on Max's online feedback form. I had a kneejerk reaction when cancellation was announced and pulled the plug...only to sit back and reconsider. I want them to still get my metrics. I want them to still see the show means something to me. And whether that's through words or statistics, I feel like that's something.
2. Follow @renewasacrew and keep up with their resources/campaigns. They're very active and passionate, and have already come up with different ways to fight for our show.
3. Sign the petition to give us just that little bit more of a chance to have our voices heard.
4. Stay active on social media, and stay positive. Continue sharing how much this show means to us. Continue creating. Continue loving. Use hashtags like-
#RenewAsACrew
#SaveOFMD
#RenewOFMD
#BeALighthouse
#OFMDSeason3
or anything equivalent on any and all OFMD-related posts. Keep the buzz about it going on social media. Comment on posts, keep spreading the word, and get the light burning.
5. Renewasacrew has given us another outlet; an official HBO email address. Write an email detailing your personal experience with this show, and how significant a third season would be.
6. Tweet/email other platforms to pique their interest. Be it Amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix, or whoever else, let's see if we can't catch someone else's attention. A romcom with iconic LGBT representation seems pretty enticing if you ask me!
This show means the world to me. Y'all mean the world to me. So let's show them why. Let's show them why, and get the proper ending we, the cast and crew, and the characters all deserve.

i’m actually so fucking devastated right now because ofmd was the only show i’ve ever seen that single-handedly showed the existence of queer joy without queer tragedy as its anchor

The death of Izzy wasn’t a bury your gay. The cancel of the show was.
(psst, tell me if you agree)

David Jenkins my beloved, thank you for "blinking twice" for a second time, even though it's incredibly difficult for you to communicate with us right now
first time:
liking this comment under one of his most recent posts (it's still the only liked comment there!):
Tumblr media
second time, today:
updated his bio to this on both X (twitter) and IG:
Tumblr media
(edit) he also liked Jemaine Clement's tweet about the petition!

But what will we do when the first shot of Ed and Stede in s3 is them asleep together in the little ramshackle bedroom they've put together for themselves like a magpie nest, and Stede's starfished out on his back with one arm around Ed, and Ed's asleep on Stede's chest with his hair everywhere? And it's just a solid few seconds of them asleep together while the camera pans across the bed to a window where SeagullButtons lands? What then?

The minute I saw the Instagram ad for this jacket I thought “Perfect for Ed’s wedding outfit.” The brainrot is deep. 😫

01/15/2024 Crew Recap
Hey all, today has been a very very very long day. I’m typing this with my eyeballs glazed over and half open. However, so much has happened in such a little amount of time I wanted share a few things before I pass out I know a lot of you are in different timezones, are busy with life, and taking a break, so maybe this will help with parsing through some of the crazy stuff the crew has been up to.
The petition hit 50K, and is at 52.5K at the moment
Tumblr media
Fundraisers: I didn’t even realize there were two different fundraisers for Palestine/Gaza going on but we blew both out of the water. (Note: the second picture is from a November campaign but I think its just as important to highlight— ty for the correction anon!)

The Emmys hashtag turn out was great tonight. There was some pretty amazing and creative stuff going on across all the platforms. Some can be seen on IG, but if you wanna see the majority of it, check out twitter #SaveOFMD #75thEmmys
---We have new ways of protesting and advocating for our show, see here for the thread on tumblr (from twitter):---
Tumblr media
And to support that @saltpepperbeard was kind enough to put together a wonderful guide on how to Call It Through as a Crew: Alleviating Some Phone Anxiety which as someone who is socially anxious and sometimes verbally vomits on people when on the phone, is AMAZING and thank you so much for doing that to help.
-- > There is also this new thread on some new places to call into. Don't quote me on that being an official thing we should do, I'm sure @renewasacrew and others will have more in the AM, I just wanted to share it so people could follow if they wanted to.

There's so much more that's happened today-- but I can't write it all down because my brain is couscous.
<---So instead, I'm going to use this last part to gush over you all and your amazing contributions in all your unique ways. The community support the last few days has been SO INCREDIBLY UPLIFTING.-->
I saw (and experienced) people reblogging asks where random followers, anons, and mutuals just reached out and sent love because they could tell people were struggling.
I've seen comments all over the place on Tumblr, IG, Twitter, and Facebook where each and every person is encouraging each other to speak their mind, or complimenting their artwork, encouraging them if they were feeling uncomfortable with things outside their comfort zones, coming up with new and exciting ways to fight back, people reaching out to the cast/crew just to say hi and remind them we love them.
I've seen Self-Care checkpoints all over, reminding people to drink water, take a break, block your notifications for a while, not engaging in negative behavior.
I've seen people being so nice on instagram posts that the people who were being dicks about all our comments turned around and decided to watch OFMD!
I saw so many people doing new analysis of scenes and characters, and having really deep and friendly discussions that make everyone think in new ways.
I saw people digging through old tumblrs to bring life back to old posts and artwork.
I saw so much NEW artwork, new FICS! New GIFS! So much new art and love!
Tumblr media
I could literally go on and on, but I've just...I had to dump this out of my brain otherwise I'd explode. I've just seen so much today that continues to make me so proud of our little safe space ship and so happy to be apart of this community.
You all continue to be the best of the best of humans, and I am so very grateful to get to witness and be apart of it. Rest up lovelies and have a good day / night, wherever you may be. May you dream of sexy middle-aged gay men kissing, or hugging, or whatever else you want them to be getting into.

Let's hope we get to keep seeing Rhys and Taika act together in the future because it cannot be emphasised enough how off the charts their chemistry is, on and off camera (see the interview below as a reference even though it's technically on camera, but not in character).
It is deeply touching and uplifting how they were able to portray such an intense and strong romantic relationship.
Their friendship is the reason for why we have got these two fictional characters that feel so very authentic. These two lovers who make our hearts beat faster by being twice as beautiful when they're in a scene together.
This obvious affection and sincerity goes beyond any medium. Of course, there has to be an idea, a script and all the means it takes to make television. We can thank a lot of people for making this particular show happen.
However, at the end of the day, there is love - in any form - which you cannot construct, make up, or pretend.
For those of us who are attached to Stede and Ed because they feel seen in them and they found hope in them for a future of happiness and kindness: Love will be there as the superior and precious emotion we have as human beings.
To conclude, these two share a special bond that makes me believe in true human connection.
