“It was an October night in 1940. We lived in Plaistow and were struck by a bomb when we were in our Anderson shelter. We were all buried alive. I felt my hand was free and managed to pull myself out. I saw my mother’s legs and began pulling her. I was calling out for help. There was a massive crater where my father and fiancé had been sleeping. My father was blown three houses away and my fiancé was in a nearby garden. My father was dead. I never knew what parts were in the coffin. My fiancé was screaming in pain. He, my two brothers, my sister, myself and Mum were all taken to hospital. My fiancé died. I went to Dad’s funeral, but Mum was away in another part of town in hospital, having operations on both of her legs. My fiancé was buried the next day. I went to that.”

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!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭
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.
I need the evidence.
I spent like 4 hours looking for this. Pls if anyone knows how to source this footage I would be very grateful
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.
Hey Band of Brothers fandom, take this *throws this at you*

Mota ep. 6, spoilers below
ok so I would say I am generally quite good with violence, gore etc. but my goodness when those German civilians attacked in Rüsselsheim I was not expecting it at all!!
so far the series has shown exactly what we expect, with injuries from flak and bullets and the shown-but-not-really planes going down.
so all of a sudden to get a guy's throat being slit and a headshot and the whack with a shovel that I didn't even watch was... quite something
