And although ending in 513 is not ideal, it could have been much worse and imagine what they could come up with, even some characters death etc. So better to stick to our ideal fanfiction world.

That's a nice way to think about it. Guess it's better to leave the stories where they are rather than ruin them for the sake of drama for fans.

You are so right

and since the fandom still is so active with fanfics we all find something that satisfies us.. and if not we can just lay it away and start something new.. that is something you can't do when a new series is done...

Exactly because now we have open doors for our imaginations. If they would break BJ and made their future impossible in potential reboot, that would destroy at least for me whole series, even s1-s5. They would ruin everything. Because I need happyend no matter what.

Taht is something we all need

I really wouldn't be sure I would dare to watch it

The show is immortal because it will certain live on through fanfic. We've got such talented fic writers in the fandom who just keep giving us the best.

Thank you Sia for sharing. I never thought a support for disappointing endings to shows exists, but here we are. It sounds like a great idea anybody who wants this to happen.

I believe there are so many shows that have unhappy fans. Shows just get cancelled over the breaks and there is no satisfactory endings

. But then again some shows that even know they are finishing have endings that leave people unhappy. I think QAF is one and I believe that How I met your mother is another one.

Has anyone ever watched Firefly? It had one season and then got canned. They put out a movie to finish it off - it wasn't ideal as you couldn't tell the whole story but people at least had some closure from the movie

They are doing a thing on Twitter as well this weekend - I think it is by the same people - they are going to try and get a QAF reunion trending this weekend I believe.

Yeh, its 5th of August, the campaign on twitter.
Sorry, never watched Firefly

I joined that campaign a while ago, but I'm not so sure I want a reunion per say. I'd be okay maybe with a sort of "where are they now" sort of show...see where there lives have taken them.

Based on the ending of the show, I have other ideas than a OTP ending for Justin and Brian, but I won't get into that because I want to live in my world of a HEA for those two.
