Vico and another cast member on stage. They are lit in blue, the backdrop showing flames licking up three large, ornately decorated windows or doorways. Vico stands in front, looking intensely at the audience with their arms raised, hands spread at about shoulder level. They are wearing a long skirt and a mesh top. The other cast member sits at a small round table slightly further back and to the right. They have about shoulder-length curly hair and are wearing long dangly earrings and a many-layered, fancy-lookimg dress with thin shoulder straps.Vico and the person from the previous photo backstage, standing in front of a clothes rack. Vico is holding one Hand to their heart while holding a large thermos cup in one hand. The other person stands close behind Vico with one hand on Vico's arm, their faces pressed together. Both are smiling and Vico is looking at the camera while the other person looks towards Vico.

Another photo of Vico and their fellow

Another photo from the same scene of Vico's show. They reach out towards the audience with one hand and appear to be mid-sentence, their mouth open and their eyebrows drawn together in an expression of anger or disgust. The other cast member sits at the table, looking down dejectedly with one leg crossed over the other and their hands on their knee.


Vico and two other cast members, dressed in white, stand on stage in front of a painted backdrop showing a beach and the ocean. Vico is on the right and appears to be shouting at the person standing on the left, while the third cast member stands in the middle with their hands on their hips and a pleased or smug expression on their face.Vico and the cast member from the first few photos dance on stage, with the table and chair from the previous scene now behind them.



= Kristen Schaal =

Now I don't feature her too often, but I thought it'd be a good idea for this recap because Kristin Schaal (aka Antoinette from The Best Revenge is Dressing Well, and you may also recognize her as Mel from Flight of the Conchords!) was a big part of the What We Do In The Shadows TV Show which had its finale on the 16th! 

Selfie of Kristen Schaal and Harvey Guillén behind the scenes of What We Do In The Shadows.

In case you hadn't heard, Deadloch Season 2 is wrapped! Look at these lovely ladies! Can't wait for the next season!

== Adopt Our Crew - Save Our Queer Stories ==

Our friends over at @adoptourcrew shared the initiative of  @savequeerstories! Want to help support our cancelled show (or so many others that were cancelled prematurely) their carrd has some great ways to help! https://actforqueerstories.carrd.co./#action


 Adopt Our Crew | #AdoptOurCrew @adoptourcrew The #SaveQueerStories pledge demands that streaming services commit to address the LGBTQ+ erasure on their platforms.   Learn more and take action here: https://actforqueerstories.carrd.co.  The #SaveQueer Stories Pledge demands that streaming services commit to the following actions: • To issue a statement committing to diverse storytelling, including stories that center LGBTQ+ voices and people of color • To properly promote and support future and existing queer shows • To mindfully reduce the number of early cancellations of queer shows such that they are less than or equivalent to non-queer shows • To restore and complete one or more canceled queer series

Vanishing representation in media harms LGBTQ+ people and communities. Today we join together with other fandoms of cancelled queer shows to #SaveQueerStories.   Learn more and take action: https://savequeerstories.carrd.co.

 Adopt Our Crew | #AdoptOurCrew @adoptourcrew Representation matters! Positive LGBTQ+ representation is shown to reduce stigma and improve attitudes towards queer people.  Learn more and take action to #SaveQueerStories: https://savequeerstories.carrd.co.

Another set of Advent Calendar doors by our sweet TillyChMo on @ofmdadventcalendar.bsky.social! The 9th Door Features the fantastic @inkirtis

OFMD Advent Calendar 2024 ‪@ofmdadventcalendar.bsky.social‬ Happy 9th of December! ✨ (9th already!?)  Behind today’s door hides a beautiful piece of holiday art by  @inkirtis.bsky.social  😍🎄  archiveofourown.org/collections/...  You can support their art here: hipolink.me/inkirtis (comms are currently open! 🔥😍)   #OFMDadventCalendar   #OurFlagMeansDeath   #OFMD  Digitally altered close-up image of Roach from Our Flag Means Death.  Roach seems to be bent over a table (maybe surveying Lucius’ dying finger in ep. 6 of s1? 🤔) and looking to the upper left corner of the photo. He’s got a cigarette of sorts in his hand.  The photo has been digitally altered by drawing a Santa hat on his head (the end of the Santa hat is drawn to look as though it’s resting on the table).  The handwritten text at the bottom of the image reads: “THE 9TH DOOR”.

The 10th Door features the glorious @clairegregoryau!

Digitally altered still photo of Ed ‘Blackbeard’ Teach from episode 6 of season 1 of Our Flag Means Death (it’s from the “run me through”-scene, where Ed is showing his belly to Stede).  Ed has his hands on his hips, leaning back so his crop top is rising up, showing his soft belly. Ed is staring directly at Stede just off camera.  The image has been digitally altered (by @tillychmo) by drawing a Santa hat on his head.  Handwritten text at the bottom of the image reads: “THE 10TH DOOR”.

The 11th Door features the very sweet @cufeilidh!

Digitally altered still photo of Oluwande and Auntie from episode 8 of Season 2 of Our Flag Means Death – from when they’re in the woods, making ready to attack the British. Auntie is in the foreground, and it looks like she’s holding branches back while crouching a little. Her eyes are firmly locked on something off screen.  Oluwande is standing behind her. His hands are down by his side (right hand holding a riffle). He looks fairly stunned at whatever is going on off screen.  The photo has been digitally altered (by TillyChMo) by drawing Santa hats on both their heads.  Handwritten text at the bottom of the picture reads: “THE 11TH DOOR”.
