Did netflix really think this fandom was going to go down without a fight? 🤡 someone doesn’t know their audience. “Because that’s what we do. We never stop fighting.” #saveshadowandbone

Netflix might have canceled the show Shadow and Bone but the GrishaVerse and the wonderful novels by mother, Leigh Bardugo will live on FOREVER 🖤 bless this community. We’re in this together

SOC SPINOFF WAS GONNA FEATURE KAZ AND INEJ'S FIRST MEETING. NETFLIX I WILL FIGHT YOU.

how to bug netflix 101

a few ideas/tips to put pressure on netflix to reconsider their decision, given the fact that a select few shows have had their fates reconsidered:

Keep Shadow and Bone & Six of Crows trending! Character names, 'No Mourners, No Funerals', Leigh Bardugo, and other key words might help too! And remember that the threshold to keep stuff trending gets higher the longer that words/phrases trend, meaning we have to keep it active!

Spam the Netflix title request form at https://help.netflix.com/en/titlerequest

with Shadow and Bone, Six of Crows, etc. At the very least, it'll inconvenience them.

Sign the petition at https://www.change.org/p/save-shadow-and-bone-a3b37712-c648-4b87-9bfc-8b8cd685c623

Fill their social medias with calls to renew. Again, at the very least it'll be annoying/inconvenient, but at least our voices will be heard.

If you feel so motivated, you can submit anonymous tips to publications and ask them to pick up the story (though there is no guarantee this will work). IGN, the Hollywood Reporter, Variety, and Deadline all accept anonymous tips without having to register or provide personal information.

UPDATE (16 Nov.) Send emails to the following people and let them know (respectfully) that we're unhappy with their decision and that they will be losing money as a result!

At the very least, Netflix has continually refused to listen to fans, even though we have shown that fandoms have the power to bring in lots of revenue; they seem to have forgotten who pays for their service and gives them the money they need to pay for the shows nobody has asked for.

Even worse, Netflix is holding the work of the writers hostage by owning the scripts yet refusing to produce them. Either Netflix needs to return the scripts to the writers, or they need to give the scripts to a platform who will actually use them and finish the story!

Industry-wide, there has been a repeated pattern of streaming platforms buying the right to a book or a series and then holding onto it without producing it or canceling it without finishing the story. This is similar to what 'patent trolls' do, filing for a patent without any real intent to use it. This is grossly unfair to the authors, not to mention the cast and crew whose livelihoods depend on a show surviving for longer than a season or two.

Leigh Bardugo deserves better. The crew deserves better. The cast deserves better. We the fans deserve better.

No mourners.

so netflix will go ahead with season 5 of stranger things even though Noah Schnapp is literally a zionist but cancel shadow and bone because the writers and showrunner were vocal about the strike. i see how it is.

I WANTED TO SEE ALL SIX CROWS TOGETHER!!!!!!!

I WANTED TO SEE WHAT'S THE EASIEST WAY TO STEAL A MAN'S WALLET!!!!!!!!

I WANTED TO SEE THE ICE COURT HEIST!!!!!!!!

I WANTED TO SEE KAZ BREKKER CARRY INEJ AND RIP OUT AN EYEBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[beebrekker]

the streets are saying SAB got cancelled because eric (showrunner / head writer) was one of the spokesman of WAG and netflix got pissed with him and did not want to pay the usual payroll increase that most shows have in the third season... i swear, if this is true i will be on national news.

the thing that’s so frustrating about the shadow and bone cancellation is that they literally had!!! the perfect cast!!! that casting was it for me - they were the characters i had read about in the duology coming to life on the screen. the show was good and it could have been even better if they had just given it time to breathe. netflix quite literally pulled together the perfect cast for these characters, dangled them in front of us and then proceeded to snatch them away again. what is the incentive to watch netflix anymore when even shows with genuinely brilliant casts and characters barely last a season or two? why bother becoming invested in the content that netflix creates if they’ll only plug their ears and ignore the feedback of their audience as they cancel legitimately enjoyable shows? how are shows meant to develop great stories or find their footing if the threat of cancellation looms over them from the very start? netflix doesn’t give their shows the chance to build upon themselves, they want everything at once or nothing at all and it’s so so frustrating as a viewer

Calahan Skogman will never get to be in a scene with the rest of the Crows cast. We won’t get a scene onscreen with all six Crows. We won’t get the Ice Court Heist. We won’t get Inej’s backstory on screen. Amita won’t get to see her hard work finished, none of them will. We won’t get to see Wylan’s backstory on screen. We won’t get more of Inej and Nina’s friendship or Kaz and Jespers or Matthias interacting with the rest of the Crows.

These dedicated, phenomenal actors have been robbed. We’ve been robbed.

Netflix count your fucking days.

rip shadow and bone. we would have loved to see dark alina. we would have loved to see matthias finally get out of jail. we would have loved to see kaz learn to love. we would have loved to see zoyalai on screen. we would have loved to see wylan's story. we would have loved to see the ice court heist. we would have loved to see colm fahey. we would have loved to meet kuweii. we would have loved to see jesper get over his gambling addiction. we would have loved to see matthias relearn all he knew for nina. we would have loved to see inej find her family again. we would have loved to see mal find out what life is like without alina. we would have loved to see nina learn to live for herself, instead of her country.

we would have loved to see more of the characters we all know and love.

[beebrekker]

netflix really canceled shadow and bone before matthias could have any screentime in general and with any of the other crows in particular

so sorry king you deserved better

[beebrekker]

cancelling Shadow and Bone right before they were going to do the Ice Court Heist and with a WHOLE SEASON of Six of Crows fucking WRITTEN AND READY TO GO and scrapping that too is evil incarnate netflix you deserve to go out of business forever

[beebrekker]

Ugh also the fact that the cast and crew didn’t even know it would be their final season. So they essentially didn’t get to mourn or get a funeral 😪 so poetic and messed up!!

[beebrekker]

[beebrekker]

One theory I have as to why shadow and bone wasn’t picked up for season 3 and why were not getting a six of crows spin off is because the whole cast stole props from the set 😂

(Trying to make light of this tragedy)
