What do you think of Netflix's decision to cancel Dead Boy Detectives? 🤔

Dead Boy Detectives did not deserve to be cancelled. It has huge fandom potential and it was clear the cast, crew, and writers all loved working on this. I hope this spooky season it gets seen by more people 😢

Thank you for covering this cancellation! Dead Boy Detectives was a brilliant show that deserved to have a season 2. Neil Gaiman apparently was not very involved in the show's production; he has stated publicly that the series isn't his, and he doesn't hold the title or character copyrights.

I'd love to see you do a review for the series.

I never want to get attached to a Netflix show because it feels like it will get canceled. They don't put a lot of effort into marketing shows unless certains names are on them.

Netflix cancels yet another good show.

Loved the inclusion of Death, Despair, and the Cat King.

Netflix loves to cancel series. The streaming model isn’t setup for shows to grow an audience. If it’s not an automatic hit, it won’t last. Sad but that’s the state of entertainment atp.

I loved this series. Very sad it was canceled. It had so much going fo it.
I agree, it wasn't marketed well nor did they push the show.

I personally don't think that the NG alligations played a huge factor since NG actually isn't that involved with Dead Boy Detectives. Yes, they were part of Sandman and NG and Matt Wagner created them originally. But their comics are not by NG and the copyrights to the show belong to Steve Yockey. NG only acted as a writer for a few minor scenes (mostly scenes involving the endless from sandman sprinkled in in retrospect after Neflix bought the show off WB and wanted to tie it to the sandman universe more) and his writing makes up for less than twenty minutes of the 8 hour show. A lot of people make it out like Dead Boy Detectives is somehow his show when it really isn't and he's said so himself in the past. I think Netflix simply cancelled it because it didn't bring enough views/watchhours in the first few weeks after release (due to their own poor marketing and having to compete with Baby Reindeer).

I loved Dead Boy Detectives and was very disappointed when it wasn’t renewed.

I would love to see your thoughts in a review of the show!

Hi Amanda, thanks for talking about this. We, the fans, are furious and also a little flabbergasted, because we think the show has potential to be a huge hit with the right kind of promotion. Would love to see you do more on the show! ❤

Thank you so much for covering the Dead Boy Detectives cancellation, the fandom isn't letting the story stop. We've set up lots of things for the cause in hopes of saving the show. So, from the group of people that are organizing this campaign, we appreciate your coverage.

Personally, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the show to a greater extent. Take care and have a lovely day!

[MsingInAction]

I absolutely loved this show, it hooked me right away. I hope you decide to do a full review!

[juliasfanart]

It's simply baffling! Netflix keeps cancelling its best shows! I really thought this time we could have made it, but alas... I'm still fighting for this show though, because it matters to a lot of people: the fans, the cast and the creators. Please make a review 🙏

[heyitspammo]

Thank you for talking about our beloved Dead Boys. I hope you'll review the whole series and make more videos on them. I believe we can save this show, it's just going to be more of a marathon as opposed to a sprint... but our fandom isn't going anywhere. It didn't deserve to be canceled and the marketing was abysmal at best.

Thank you again, I hope to see more on Dead Boy Detectives from you in the future!! 🤞

I did enjoy the show. Ugh. Another favorite show canceled. Thanks for the update

[Jkchavesz]

Man i really loved this show, maybe if it was a weekly release it could help since there was a kind of monster of the week vibe and damn i really wanted a season 2

[haruchan]

I seriously think that Netflix boycott DBD since day one. Choosing the worse date of the year for release a YA show, and barely promoting it. If they really wanted to succeded it shoul it be promoted in the Geeked and release in spooky season.
The NG issue is just a poor excuse bc his involvement with the show is minimum.

[johnniequinn]

Along with Lockwood & Company. It had a great mature YA vibe to it.

[RobOlivierbjr]

I watched the 1st season and not only did I enjoy the show and especially the cast. Again, Netflix did me wrong.

[mg]

Dead Boy Detectives is one of the best and kindest shows I've seen in a long time and I would love to see you do a review of the whole show! ❤
