Our Flag Means Death got cancelled by HBOMax last week - two seasons in to a three-season arc, and I'm so sad. Pre-production hiring had already begun, for crying out loud! The BBC have season one on iPlayer, and I really want to see how it ends.

There's a huge effort to try and change the minds of the execs, and to that end if you could sign/share the petition I'd be so so grateful. It might not help, but it definitely won't hurt.
Here it is: Petition link here

Snow piercer...series four is made...and netflicks or warner brothers didn't show it.
So it now sits in the can....
It had huge fan base and it's so annoying that it is already made and yet we can't watch it

LiveshipParagon · 17/01/2024 11:09

It's made and they just won't air it?? That's insane. I've been waiting for Snowpiercer, such a great show 😥

I was gutted when the BBC axed Outcasts after series one. It was even mid story and in a massive cliffhanger too. Bastards! 😖

I knew this would be OFMD before I clicked on the thread! Had already signed the petition, suspect we'll hope in vain but it's worth a try. I've seen season 2 already and they really can't leave it there, we need season 3 Sad

LiveshipParagon · 17/01/2024 11:30

Yeah😢Our Flag Means Death is such a well-made show too - the attention to detail on the sets is second to none. Sure it takes a while to warm up in season one, but it's a love story more than a comedy, really. I love it (and the characters) so much.

I mean, what's not to love about a semi-fictionalised romcom about two pirates falling in love? Stede Bonnet really did run away from his wife and children to sail around the Caribbean with Blackbeard, after all.

Just seen this! Such a beautiful bit of storytelling, and so emotional I sobbed for quite some time. And then you get blindsided by nonsensical comedy - it's so well done ❤

Firefly and Quacks are mine 😔

GLOW on Netflix 😥

I loved Quacks.

It is very annoying OP, I’ve not seen the program but I’ll sign the petition.

Allchangename354 · 17/01/2024 21:25

I used to want programmes to come back. Now I just get angry at the ones that leave a cliff hanger ending at the end of a series.

AmyandPhilipfan · 17/01/2024 21:42

I'm still miffed about In The Flesh.

Sparklypen · 17/01/2024 21:50

I was annoyed that Becoming Elizabeth was axed. It was clearly planned to be something like a 4 series story arc, with the stories of lady Jane Grey and Bloody Mary to come, and yet axed after series one, which started slow but really built as it got going.

There's no way they'll reinstate it as Bella Ramsey will be too old to play Lady Jane Grey now.

Mothew · 17/01/2024 21:52

I've signed, thanks OP, I loved OFMD.

BeBraveLittlePenguin · 17/01/2024 21:52

I thought I was mad about Hannibal but that was nothing compared to my rage when OFMD wasn't renewed. Fanfiction can only do so much! I basically need more Taika in a long wig and leather.

Holby city - I loved it so much

NewKingontheBlock · 17/01/2024 21:54

Doctors, I’ve watched it for years it’s like losing my comfort blanket.

aname1234 · 17/01/2024 21:54

Lockwood and co, so disappointed

NewKingontheBlock · 17/01/2024 21:59

The Coroner, set in beautiful Devon was gutted it was cancelled it was so good.

Don't you just hate it when your favourite show gets cancelled?

I loved Holby City too !

Don't you just hate it when your favourite show gets cancelled?

Yes, especially when it ends on a cliffhanger. Does seem to be a trait of US TV shows. Also, annoying when a long runnng show moves platforms and you would have to pay out for another subscription to watch it - I don't I'm too stubborn

Riverlee · 18/01/2024 09:54

Signed!

Santa Clarita Diet 😭

Ended on such a cliffhanger too and then just wasn't renewed. Never got over it 😂
