Not that I'm still thinking about Graceland (I'm always thinking about Graceland at least a little bit) but I really am mad that they deleted the scene in the pilot where they confirm that Mike has ADHD because it explains and informs so many character choices for him, not to mention the fact that we would have gotten ADHD representation of a character who is clearly intelligent, extremely competent in the field, and taken seriously by others. A lot of time ADHD rep is only there for lazy comic relief and is reduced to "Haha I'm easily distracted hey look a squirrel!" Here we would have gotten not just a solid character, but the PROTAGONIST as good representation.
In the pilot we see Mike taking deliberate notes, fidgeting with his hand exercise tool, repeating words to memorize information, struggling to recall info under stress, being unsure of when his roommates are serious or joking, and working really hard to prove how capable he really is. He has high academic scores, because having ADHD does not mean you can't do well in school. He's clearly worked really hard to get to the place we find him in the pilot. He's set up to be a really well rounded, multifaceted individual with ADHD and then they fucking cut the scene where it's confirmed, so now we're left to pick up the pieces on our own.
I will say though I love that even though the expository scene was cut, Mike still shows a lot of signs of ADHD that come through anyway. I dont know if the writers put that in intentional or if Aaron chose to play him that way, but good job either way. I'm still upset that they cut out the deliberate representation, but what we do have isn't any less important.

I have been a part of 2 major campaigns to save my favorite shows plus contribute to some minor ones. It took years for us to save the shows which was only possible because they were animated. Everything we are doing now was also done back then. But Lockwood is live action with aging actors/actresses; it has to be save sooner. We won our battle back then but this one will be harder. However, we have one golden opportunity that other campaigns did not have.Â
Let me lay the field down for you. If you google Netflix cancellations you will see dozen of articles written over the years and you would basically be reading the same article over and over: Despite high viewership and reviews Netflix cancels another show, does not advertise/promote enough, does not want to pay residuals for shows past 3rd seasons, Fans/subscribers not happy, and criticism about Netflix playbook and questioning itâs wisdom. Not to mention that Damn quote âwe have never cancelled a successful seriesâ. You can also find articles of Fandoms efforts trying to save the show just like us. But itâs become the Same article over and over. We need something new to be reported on.
You know what is also being reported? The WGA strike. With the strike going in to itâs 3rd week most of the basic reporting is done and now itâs just repeat of picket lines. But we can change the narrative. We can give the news something new and different to report on.
There is a WGA strike fund you can donate to support the strikers but more importantly you can tribute your donation to someone. Someone named Lockwood & Co.
Entertainment blogs will report how the growing frustration of Netflix cancellations has now lead to donations to WGA. The movement will hopefully gain traction and more news will be written. Other fandoms might join in for revenge of their cancellations. If we are successful a news broadcast is done showing the picket line but also showing clips of the show. That will get the show attention itâs never been given before. Attention that will hopefully get it back on the Top Ten. That would be another headline and even more attention.
You can click here to make the donation. But donât forget to Tribute to Lockwood & Co.
Edit to add the lowest donation you can make is $5.
Make any size donation you want (donât forget the transaction fee). Make a one time small donation. Make a large donation. Make multiple small donations.
It would really help if other people can blast this idea on other social media platforms. Make Memes, videos, TikTocks, Instagram posts, etc.
A lot of people are hurt by Netflix cancellations but Netflix has never cared no matter how many angry letters, comments and posts are made. Itâs the same old song and dance. But now We actually have a chance to hurt Netflix back in a way it never has been. Let the cancellation of Lockwood & Co be the straw that broke the camels back. Lets be reckless enough.
I have discovered that there is a scene in Retribution which I very much need to gif in order to communicate Thoughts⢠I am having.
Must now learn!!! watch this space...
on tragic heroes and the people who'd follow them anywhere.

If we interacted for the first time today via boops and are unlikely to run into each other again because we don't have the same fandom niches I just want you to know our boop bond is real and if I ever see you randomly come across my dash I'll think to myself "aww my boop bud" and send you warm thoughts and good vibes
NETFLIX CANCELLED SHADOW AND BONE AND NO SIX OF CROWS SPIN OFF!?!!! FUUUUCK!! I wanted to see them rescue Matthias SO FUCKING BADLY!!!! I NEEDED IT!! đđđđđđ
This is why I don't trust any show on Netflix. They never finish what they stared and cancel EVERYTHING! I swear to god I'm never starting another Netflix show until it's all over and done and it's safe. Fuck this. I'm so mad.
