អ្នកគាំទ្រ 'Warrior Nun' ទាមទាររដូវកាលទី 3 ទិញ Billboard ឆ្លងកាត់ការិយាល័យ Netflix

I have dealt with a lot of fandoms in my time, but few have impressed me as much as those attempting to save Warrior Nun after its season 2 cancellation at Netflix, angling for season 3 and beyond to continue its story. While they have been heavily organized in terms of getting certain hashtags or phrases trending every day on Twitter, now they’ve done something pretty hilarious.

Fans have banded together to purchase a billboard across from the Netflix corporate office in Los Angeles, telling them to #SaveWarriorNun and make a season 3. The buyers say it will run for 4 weeks and posted photos to show how half the Netflix office will be staring at it every day on the corner of Sunset Blvd and Van Ness. I imagine that wasn’t cheap.

This was a purely fan-driven effort, not involving anyone making the show, albeit showrunner Simon Barry did retweet the billboard announcement saying he was “stunned and beyond impressed” saying the fans were “next level.”

It certainly is next level, and I will say that Warrior Nun fans are exhibiting a tenacity you don’t often see in this space, even when so many other shows are being cancelled left and right.

I do worry that the only thing Netflix understands is viewership, however. Manifest fans got together and made sure Manifest stayed at the top of Netflix’s most-watched list for eons, which is how a final season of that was picked up by Netflix and “saved” from cancellation. But I have not seen Warrior Nun be able to resurface in the most-watched list. If it could, this far after season 2’s airing, that might be something Netflix would notice. Albeit yes, sure, they will notice this literal billboard in their faces too.

We have seen shows saved in the past for all sorts of reasons, so I’ll never say never for Warrior Nun. Netflix is not the only option here, as even if it doesn’t reverse its cancelation decision, in theory, another streaming service could work out a deal for season 3, instantly converting that fanbase to supporters and subscribers. But we don’t know the exact terms of the Netflix/Warrior Nun deal and what can or cannot happen. Practically no cancelled Netflix original series has ever come back to life. Tuca and Bertie? That’s the only one that comes to mind. Simon Barry previously said he was exploring other options for Warrior Nun, but even after all this fan support, we still don’t have any concrete developments on that front.

Regardless, this has been pretty impressive. My advice would again be to mount some sort of binge-watch mass viewership campaign to see if they can surface the show on the top 10 list again. Hashtags and billboards are good, and so is Warrior Nun’s insane critic and audience scores, but viewership and budget is likely what it fundamentally comes down to.
