I've been meaning to make this post for months now but hey, here is. Some of you may remember I made DVDs of OFMD a while ago. I rambled extensively about it here.

Quick refresher or in case you haven't seen them:

They have disc menues that play Gnossienne Number 5 and have individual episode pictures. Also there's sleeves and discs labels!

Why am I telling you this (again)? Well, I happen to have all the files you need to start your own basement pirate DVD manufacturing career on a burner Google Drive. So if you too wanted to have DVDs of our beautiful show on your shelf at home, you could download the files, grab a DVD writer drive and a bunch of empty DVDs and get right to burning them. No particular skill needed because the files are done and ready to go at a click. There's also a bit of a how-to on there that I hope is helpful for those confused. Piracy ho, friends!

I'll be honest I'm honestly relieved there isn't gonna be a s3 of ofmd. I understand why ppl are upset and they're valid for it but honestly after how betrayed I've been by it and how much bullshit I had to go through with s2 I never really wanted a s3 because I knew it was just going to fuck it up further.

Say what you want by "oh at least they got their happy ending" bc well, maybe it is for some, but for me there never will be a happy ending in canon at this point no matter how many seasons they put into it, that ship sailed (heh) a long time ago.

To me the cancelation just means the show is officially in our hands now, and tbh I trust us with this show more than I ever trusted David Jenkins with it.

OFMD was honestly over for me (and a lot of other fans) with the way season 2 ended. We loved it. We devoted a year and a half of adoration, creativity, energy, etc to it. And the sudden drop into dark drama in season 2, even before the loss of Izzy, made some of us nervous. To reference The Gay Pirate Podcast, they made our singular show that was a safe haven away from Prestige TV™️ into the same thing everyone else was doing. We no longer felt safe to laugh and love and get attached to characters. There was definitely a faction of fans who decided they wouldn’t watch even if a third season did happen, because they felt so betrayed. So for me, and for a lot of others, it was over in October. Hugs to all of you who are mourning the fresher loss, I’m sending you all virtual oranges to stave off scurvy and winter blues. Thank you for creating this beautiful fandom, and letting me be a part of a fandom as it happened live, for once.
