Guys, the numbers for "Dead Boy Detectives" are bad, which puts us in the threat of cancelation.
This is a show with primarily non-white cast, of various identities with explicitly queer storylines. No queerbaiting or "maybe we can hc them as x or y". Real stories.
It's a fun show, too, to say the least. I know it is discouraging to keep talking about numbers, but the reality is that we need them.
Binge the show, tell your friends, tell your family, play it in the background as noise, let's rack up those numbers.
We and every queer kid after us deserve to see stories about them told in the most fantastical, spooky setting.
It would also be a wonderful plus to see Desire and the Cat King together, would it not?
He's a 16 year old Edwardian ghost. He's gay. He's oblivious. He's in love with his best friend. He's got internalized homophobia. He's occasionally a woman. He's been dead for 70 years. He's never felt more alive. He is the kindest man you'll ever see. He is destined for hell. He has no rizz. Everyone wants him carnally. Edwin Payne really is THE most character of all time no one is doing it like him
So I finished Dead Boy Detectives a few days ago and I desperately need a season two and Netflix is completely fucked and probably won’t renew it (viewership is apparently very low) so I’m just here to say hey, please watch this show! It’s so good! It’s fun and weird and funny and queer and kind of shockingly violent and gory, and all of the characters are absolutely delightful. I don’t normally go for supernatural stuff, but knowing it was in the Sandman universe (also, I highly recommend watching The Sandman first if you haven’t, it’s even better, but also we’re on a time crunch here because again, Netflix is fucked, so if you don’t have the time you should go straight to DBD) made me want to watch it. I watched most of it in one sitting and I’m absolutely obsessed now.
So please watch it! Watch it twice, watch it three times, tell your friends and family to watch it! Honestly even if it’s not your thing and you’re not interested but you would still like to help, you could just mute it and have it on and not even watch. I might do that myself because I have other things to watch (and also I don’t want to get sick of it by watching so many times).
Anyway. Bottom line, please watch Dead Boy Detectives! Because Netflix is a fucked up company that cancels everything if the viewership isn’t super high and I need a second season so badly.
i’m never forgiving the HBH writers for sending Malakai to SWITZERLAND and having THE SCHOOL BURN DOWN WITH HIS GOODBYE LETTER??? WHAT DID HE PROMISE AMERIE 😭
I feel like Dead Boy Detectives handles Crystal with such kindness. She has the ability to be cruel and... Just a terrible person. She also has a silver tongue and knows her aunties and grammies, she will suffer to save her friends in an instant, and she is better than who she was. She is the kind of person who would have brought about the death of the boys but she is working and doing better. I adore her. She spits fire and warms all around her
Love Dead Boy Detectives but as of right now the fandom tag has a little too much ship discourse and a significant lack of GIFed quotes like “MONTY! JESUS! I’m trying to threaten some kids!” and that one scene where one cat called another cat a whore for falling for sardine bait.
My dad is watching Dead Boy Detectives and he’s asking the real questions.
“What does the uptight guy have that is bringing all of those other guys to him? Is that rizz? Sabrina is that what rizz is? Does that kid have the rizz?”
