dead boy detective fandom!!!

I know that’s it’s really hard to be happy right now but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don’t leave the fandom. We have made such an impact in FOUR MONTHS and Netflix will see that they made the wrong decision. This is an awesome fandom and I want us to keep going strong!! We are amazing and I want everyone to know that.

One thing I adore about Dead Boy Detectives is how brilliant the first ten minutes are. The pacing is incredible. You meet the boys, learn who they are, get a peek at what they want, and are shown what their strengths and weaknesses are.

Straight out the gate, you know that Charles is impulsive and more physically protective, and that Edwin is more intellectual and prone to magic. You learn magic exists and this is a setting where an infinite backpack can happen. Edwin gets a chance to show off his deductive skills with their client, and Charles gets to show off his people skills with both the client and the WWI ghost. Six minutes in and we already know these characters.

You learn that this is how these characters function together, and that they know each other well enough to know each others' strengths and weaknesses and rely on each other and compensate for them, respectively. The pacing is lively and attention-grabbing, and the back-and-forth between the office and the scene while they're on the job allows a fantastic showcase of the contrast between how they work together in different situations.

Then we get a look at the deeper need that motivates our two ghosts: staying together, against all odds, even after death, even in the face of Death herself.

And then we segue into another brilliant bit of exposition. Instead of a long, stodgy talking scene that would slow down the pacing, we get shown slices of Crystal acting strangely to explain what's going on.

In the space of ten minutes, we have met our characters, know what drives them, know their status quo, and are ready for that status quo to be upended, all without a single exposition dump.

No wonder this series series was met with critical acclaim. This is brilliant character writing and pacing. I write for a living, and this intro scene had me turning to the person next to me, saying, "THAT'S how you do it."

There's so much to appreciate about Dead Boy Detectives, but I feel like the script doesn't get anywhere near enough attention. Standing ovation for the absolutely brilliant writing, honestly.

Jayden’s Twitch stream 9/13/2024

Jayden says he is so grateful for our outpouring of love AND that he “was the only one” of the cast and crew who called that we were going to RIOT over this cancellation!

He said “nah my people my people are gonna be loud” AND WE ARE

Let’s show them all!

SAVE DEAD BOY DETECTIVES

Kudos to Arcane and the locked tomb series for both showing that sometimes after a queer break up one person becomes gay Jesus. It just happens sometimes

You can’t take loved away
