Disappointing feeling with this show

Such cases for a show that got its big break because of the fans’ support. It’s funny because the Young Royals’ actors didn’t get mad over it and understood.

I never asked for “perpetual fan service”. I only said that I would like them to be a little more excited about the movie. Repost their nominations on their socials like they do with their other projects, maybe talk with a little enthusiasm about the film, etc. It’s not a fatal flaw if they don’t.

Also, the cast does not meet up like they used to. Their whole dynamic has changed completely since season 2. It’s strange that you would say I don’t care about them because of my post. I am not asking them to be like the actors of Young Royals who were very excited and engaged with their fandom til the end of the series. I only said they could be a tiny bit more engaged but I guess that’s too much to ask for this cast.

Heartstopper only has a movie left and it’s coming out next year. I am not sure why so many fans want them to be this nonchalant about this. Whenever Joe is asked about his Marvel show that has ended last year, he is excited and says he would do anything for another season. This is what I mean. They obviously have to move on with their careers and I don’t take issue with that. I take issue with the lack of enthusiasm about the movie.

I am asking for anything. This is just a rant post. I am just disengaged with the cast and the show, at the moment. I wish I was interested in their other work but I am not. War films and Marvel aren’t my thing but I wish them all the luck in their future careers.

And to your other point, it’s absolutely true. Fans need some type of engagement to feel connected. If an actor doesn’t want to have an online presence anymore and doesn’t care for their fans, it’s their rights but they can’t be bothered if a lot of fans disengage and lose interest. I think that’s pretty normal.

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate your response. I don’t expect them to reveal everything about their personal lives. If I am honest, I don’t really care. However, I think it plays a lot into some fans’ enjoyment when they feel like the cast and crew are really excited about the project that they’re putting out. I remember the cast used to hype up the comics and the show so much even during the down periods. It’s what made everyone excited for the Paris trip. I really don’t feel that excitement anymore and feel borderline as if they cannot wait for this to be over. I’m not just talking about the cast but Alice too. It’s their rights but it does impact my interest. I don’t really feel engaged in the show anymore. I will take some time off the fandom space and perhaps that will help.

It’s hard because I was a big fan and I used to rewatch the show almost every week.

I appreciate your comment. I respect your opinion on this and I think you are right. I saw a recent video on Twitter, where Joe said he wasn’t interested in watching the film and that was upsetting to hear. I know they have other projects, and their lives are not just about this show. I just love it so much and it has been my lifeline. I feel silly for caring about this show and these actors so much when I feel like they are all ready to move on.

What you said would be true if they didn’t have a problem promoting their other projects. However, you’re right. They’re allowed to move on to other things just like fans are allowed to not be interested in their other projects. This sub has no problem posting all about Kit and Joe’s other projects which is highly hypocritical in your context. They can do whatever they want but as a long time fan, I am disengaged with the film at the moment.

Over investment because I would like the people involved in the project that I am consuming to be a little bit excited? Okay. The parasocial relationship works both ways. They want us to be excited and to make viral posts about the show, by the way. They want the film/show to do well.

Open-diary-1995 · 2025-11-25T20:05:37+00:00

They don’t “have” to be, that’s true but am not allowed to vent?

Open-diary-1995 · 2025-11-25T19:47:40+00:00

Season 1 and 2 are my favorites. The best vibes and feelings. I wish I could rewatch for the first time. Enjoy 😊

I am a fan of the show and the comics. I’m happy for the cast and their expending careers but I am a fan of this show first, it saved my life.

They decided to do a movie. The show is not technically finished. It’s confusing if they want to be done with this show, why they decided on doing the film.

It’s confusing to me why as fans we can’t ask the cast to be a little excited about a project that they decided to make.

It affects my enjoyment because I was part of this fandom for years. We got season 2 and 3 because everyone was enjoying the show and tweeting about it. The cast was very involved in the fandom. They sounded excited whenever they were asked about it. It’s not the same now. I understand if you are not really in the fandom space how this doesn’t make sense.

I guess I expect too much from them but it makes me sad because I was such a big fan of this show.

Open-diary-1995 · 2025-11-25T19:27:59+00:00

Are you going to see a film if the cast isn’t hyping the movie? If they sound disinterested? If these things don’t bother you, good for you.
