Do you think of me?

the way some people reacted to David Jenkins and Neil Gaiman saying their shows would only have 3 seasons is so funny because I saw so many feeling devastated while I am so relieved and relaxed about it. don’t get me wrong I love getting more content with the characters I love but… normalize cohesive storytelling. normalize ENDINGS. do you REALLY want another s*pernatural????

david jenkins is the only one doing historical fiction correctly. absolutely fucking nothing aligns with actual history. thats why its fiction. he is the only one who gets it. everyone can find each other in the middle of the sea with the power of gaydar. roach can jump off the mast and get absolutely OBLITERATED by the side of the boat and be completely fine two hours later. a woman who historically wasnt born until 60 years after the show takes place is here. homophobia doesn’t exist. izzy hands was 16 in the year 1717. con o’neill is 57. stede bonnet died when he was 30. rhys darby is 49. edward teach was english. taika waititi is from new zealand and makes no attempt to do an english accent. i just think that’s all so amazing. absolutely no one is doing it like DJenks.

david jenkins only ever wanted 3 seasons.

3 seasons to tell their story.

and even after slashing their budget nearly in half, making them cut the amount of episodes and their runtimes, and having to cut out and rewrite entire storylines, that still wasn’t enough.

fuck you, david zaslav.

In case you're wondering what that loud wailing and the floods of tears coming over from Bluesky are...

Really so much respect for David Jenkins. He really went "historical accuracy"? "Realism"? "Laws of physics"? Nope, we don't need those here, everything in this story is Vibes. Dinghies can travel huge distances if necessary, except sometimes not, injuries heal immediately or slowly fester, whichever the plot demands for comedy or drama respectively, a character spends several days dead/in a coma/in purgatory and then just comes back to life when his beloved shows up. Nothing is too over the top for this story, cringe doesn't exist, we'll dial all those feelings up to eleven, and we're gonna play everything with 100% earnestness, and we're gonna have a merman and it's going to be so fucking romantic. And he's right about all of it! Really the best way to do fiction.
