Scavenger’s Reign Renewal Hope
So.
My favorite show of perhaps the last decade was cancelled by David Zas-$&@%#* and sold to Netflix. If you haven’t seen the show, it’s an incredibly beautiful, unnerving, emotionally powerful story of the survivors of a cargo ship crash on a truly alien planet. It is, undoubtedly, the most mature sci-fi I have seen in years, grappling with existentialism on the most well-realized biome of all time.
This is a tragedy. But! Like the survivors of the Demeter, all hope is not lost. We can survive the parasite of David Zas-%£#+>*, and try to let this story continue–it deserves to continue, evolve, and grow. It’s not actually cancelled-sources at Netflix according to Variety are on the fence. The debut on the 31st of May is an opportunity for us, fans of sci-fi, to remind the streaming services we are their audience and we care about new, original stories with deep character development, passionate craft, and quality.
We care about art.
So if you liked the show, if you loved the show, if you have your uncle’s Netflix password or an ex’s or a random neighbor who leaves their passcode unencoded and visible through the window, please log on and watch it again. If you haven’t seen it, please give it a shot. It’s a really, really good show. It doesn’t deserve to end like the Expanse or any of the other quality sci-fi shows ended before their time. So give it a double thumbs up or whatever Netflix uses for their metrics these days. Upvote this too!
Your Levi is counting on you.
