"Thank god for gravity..."

*Sigh* Well. I’m honestly not sure what I could say to easy anyone’s mind. I’m so sorry guys. This show was expensive, not properly marketed, and unlike anything people were used to. In that sense, it was in danger of being cancelled. I don’t entirely blame Netflix because business is business, but I do some because Sense8 was more. 

I’m extremely disappointed that Netflix, a company who has demonstrated some great prioritization and openness to tackling serious issues, has failed to accurately see the value of this show beyond money. Not only did this show offer an INCREDIBLE representation of REAL LGBTQ+ characters and actors, human relationships, political and social progressivism in a divisive and insecure time for the world, and an AMAZING cinematic performance in terms of story, visuals, acting, and special effects, but it honestly created a space for people of all ages to learn about and relate to important issues while easily watching a fantastic, fun show. 

Yes, it’s pride month. That fucking sucks honestly. This show employed and depicted LGBTQ+ people in an accurate and positive way, mental health issues, political issues, familial issues, friendship, and more in a beautiful way. Instead, however- not to be overly controversial, but- Netflix cancelled Sense8 and other great shows like The Get Down, while deciding to renew problematic and controversial shows like 13 Reasons Why. 

I will do everything I can to promote another network picking up this show (however unlikely), and I will be heartbroken like all of you, but I would just like to remind everyone to really talk about these shows in the future. We need to spread the word and get others to watch the shows so that they can continue making money for the company because the reality is that it would not be enough for a business to continue the most expensive show on television simply for social justice (if only). Shows like Sense8 impact the lives of young people growing up and finding themselves, young artists learning about incredible work such as this, and every day folks who become more open to differing ideas by watching these shows. 

Again, I’m so sorry. I know how special this show was, I am extremely disappointed and sad. There’s so much I could say, but it wouldn’t make enough of a difference. I will always be here to continue the love that Sense8 brought to its audience. Perhaps we’ll get something more, perhaps we won’t, but we will always have a special place in our heart for our fellow sensates, and I urge you all to continue spreading positivity around the world in any way you can. Remember, we have more shows that are great and some that need help. This will not be the last show to be so inclusive and revolutionary. If I can help it, I will do everything I can to bring it back once I establish myself in film :) I love you guys! Come to me with your emotions and I will give you virtual hugs. 

I’m including Netflix’s statement here because it is accurate, however much you may dislike them right now:  It is everything we and the fans dreamed it would be: bold, emotional, stunning, kick ass, and outright unforgettable. Never has there been a more truly global show with an equally diverse and international cast and crew, which is only mirrored by the connected community of deeply passionate fans all around the world. We thank Lana [Wachowski], Lilly [Wachowski], Joe [Michael Straczynski] and Grant [Hill] for their vision, and the entire cast and crew for their craftsmanship and commitment. 

No, she wasn’t having sex with Rajan- at least that’s how I saw it. When we first saw Kala in that sequence, she was waking up from her own bed, eventually walking over to the pool. From bed, she was wearing her classic red nightgown and Rajan was shirtless. We already know that they have slept together, so my interpretation is that they may have had sex before they went to sleep and before Kala woke up and had her interaction with Wolfgang. 

I don’t think that she and Rajan had sex *again* because all of the scenes from her perspective are in the pool with Wolfgang. Everything else is in his bedroom, all the way until the end of that scene. It is a bit confusing, and it might have been a slight in editing, because of the lighting and because she would have to walk back to her and Rajan’s bedroom, dry off, and then fall asleep “in Wolfie’s arms,” but I’m thinking that we’re just supposed to sort of get past that or take it in stride (because fuck it, they had sex and that’s what matters haha).

If we were supposed to believe that she did have sex with Rajan...well I think that would sort of ruin the moment. Wolfgang definitely would’ve sensed Rajan and he probably would’ve been incorporated somehow, even just for a moment. So, in short, yes I think that they had sensate sex haha
