          	Of course, the series is for everyone! Whether you're queer or not, old or young, I am sure that you'll find something in it that will speak to you, since, as I said, the series tackles a lot of different topics and aspects.
          	
          	So, I hope that I could give you something to spend your upcoming free time with! :) And if you want, tell me if you like it!
          	
          	
          	Thank you for taking your time to read :)
          	Here's the synopsis (quoting fandom.com):
          	
          	===========================
          	
          	Do you have a pesky ghost haunting you? Has a demon stolen your core memories? You may want to ring the Dead Boy Detectives.
          	
          	Meet Edwin Payne (George Rexstrew) and Charles Rowland (Jayden Revri), "the brains" and "the brawn" behind the Dead Boy Detectives agency. Teenagers born decades apart who find each other only in death, Edwin and Charles are best friends and ghosts... who solve mysteries. They will do anything to stick together – including escaping evil witches, Hell and Death herself. With the help of a clairvoyant named Crystal (Kassius Nelson) and her friend Niko (Yuyu Kitamura), they are able to crack some of the mortal realm's most mystifying paranormal cases.

          I honestly think there's something in the show for everyone, and I've had such a blast watching it (twice!).
          (Plus, if you're a fan of The Sandman, Dead Boy Detectives plays in the same universe ;) The Sandman is another show on Netflix I really recommend.)
          
          I'm going to paste the synopsis of DBD at the bottom of the 3rd announcement. I only want to lastly mention how important this series has become to me. This may sound like I'm laying it on thickly, but I'm being serious.
          
          I really like seeing queer representation in media, also since it's still something relatively new. But I've noticed that, in a lot of movies, tv series etc. that feature queer characters, those characters are either s*xualized very quickly and/or excessively, are "punished" for being queer (as in, are victims to homoph0bia, get a tragic ending, ...), are stereotyped, or only appear as a very minor role.
          
          And while I do believe that topics like homoph0bia are important to be addressed as well, and there are movies etc. that do it well, I've also been hoping for something that just isn't inherently tragic / s€xualized / etc.
          
          That's where Dead Boy Detectives and The Sandman enter. Because these two shows are genuinely the first I've ever watched that portray queer characters + relationships... and it's considered completely normal in their universe.
          
          Yes, one of the main characters in DBD is a ghost who lived at a time where it wasn't considered normal yet. But the creators of DBD use that for his character arc, as a chance for him to grow and find himself and, eventually, confront feelings he never knew were possible.
          
          Watching Dead Boy Detectives and The Sandman as a queer person myself honestly felt very liberating. I didn't even realize until watching them that I was just hoping for some good representation that didn't "punish" the characters for being themselves, and when I did watch them, it almost felt like... coming home, in a way.

          If you have Netflix and are looking for a new series to watch, I highly recommend Dead Boy Detectives! The show is, in my opinion, extremely good and all of us fans are having our fingers crossed for a 2nd season!
          
          I usually don't post messages like this but this series has honestly become one of my favourite series in a very short time. I was hooked pretty much from the start and binged + re-watched it. I am really hoping that it gets renewed, the characters have grown on me quickly, all of the actors did a fantastic job, and there was never a second where I was bored or anything (which is saying something as I'm often someone to glance at the remaining time of episodes in several other series).
          
          That is one of the reasons I'm posting this message – not only do I want to recommend the series because of just how good and fun I think it is, but also to increase the chances of a renewal. There have been Netflix shows in the past which, unfortunately, were well received but cancelled. Since it plays a big role how many viewers watch a series until the end, I'm hoping to reach someone who might get, or already be, interested in Dead Boy Detectives. Even if I "only" reach one person, that'd still be a success in my eyes!
          
          So, if you're thinking about watching it, I highly recommend it. It has lots of comedic and light-hearted moments while also going into the depth of many things. It considers many real-life problems of young (incl. queer) people especially, while also exploring the supernatural (I'm usually not that much of a fan of supernatural things but this, again, has really hooked me).

.・゜-: ✧ :- weird asf dreaming time -: ✧ :-゜・.
          Ok so once I had this dream (think I dreamt this around the time of my confirmation in church) where Jin from BTS, maybe 2 dozen other teenagers and I were sitting in a circle on wooden chairs, we were just this group of church-goers ig yk. And our instructor told us to pair up, nobody wanted to pair up with Jin even tho he's famous so I did.
          And our wonderful task was to build a snowman, but since there was no snow and only sand all of a sudden, we built snowmen out of sand. Very odd experience 10/10 would do again
          
          Another dream I recently had was abt my friends and I being somewhere at home together and all of us had brought food so we had a table full of clustered food in lunch boxes an whatnot. They told me to fetch ☆the Chicken nuggetd☆, so I grabbed the box they were in. It was only two. So inside when I opened the box were the 2 chicken nuggets and a spider about the same colour and maybe size, tho bit smaller. We all got a small shock, my friend who's the most scared of spiders irl got the biggest shock in my dream as well.
          In order to make the spider appear less scary I named it Paul (pronounciated French; I'm not even French), which actually worked and made it seem small and indigent. Paul wanted to escape, take a stroll around the house or so, and I constantly said stuff like "no Paul, don't go there!" (Remember, Paul in French)
          Soon after we managed to squish him
          
          So what are ur nightly experiences with ur crevical melon
