Franklin & Bash

Sad news that we probably knew was maybe coming.

Franklin and Bash has been cancelled.


There's no bright side to this, but through the tears and over the sounds of our hearts shattering, never to be repaired, I think we can try to remember the good times, the lovely characters they probably didn't realize they were creating, the plot points that we predicted and they gave us, and, of course, the undeniable love between Peter and Jared.

And, with canon closed, I'm pretty sure they legally belong to us now.


Who wants to hug it out?

I can't even with a gif right now.

I can barely with a post right now.

How can we even talk about this?

What is life anymore?


Okay... five hours later and I managed gifs.

Let's talk about Dan's possum.

Stanton's back. But he's a total grumpers.

Let's talk about it.

Since it's that time of the year... Some Franklin and Bash Christmas episodes they could have made but didn’t.

It’s A Wonderful Life - Where Jared feels like Peter’s life would have been better without him and Angel Hanna shows him that Peter would have just been boring and heteronormative and that Carmen and Pindar would be stuck with employers who didn’t understand them and that Infeld Daniels whole company is even grey-er and more boring than ever. Could include Jared not not!existing, just never meeting Peter and thus Jared becoming a carbon copy of Leonard.


A Christmas Carol - Damien’s a pouty pants and needs to be shown the error of his ways. Carmen’s Jacob Marley, Hanna’s the ghost of Christmas Past, Pindar’s the ghost of Christmas present, Stanton is the ghost of Christmas future, and Peter and Jared are Bob Cratchet and Tiny Tim. (mostly I just want Jared saying God Bless Us Every One and being small).


A Miracle on 34th Street - Peter and Jared have to defend Santa. With a Jewish judge and that gets awkward sometimes. Trying the whole ‘tons of letters’ thing and having the judge stop them before the first bag even makes it down the isle. Lots of eye rolling but at the end there’s “Christmas magic” and questions about who “Santa" really was.


Anything that would include: Peter dressed as Santa and Jared dressed as an elf. Trying to get Carmen and Pindar to be reindeer and them saying that that would be racist. Tree decorating in super sunny California. Tree decorating anywhere but super sunny California. Damien hating Christmas because his family is terrible. Damien loving Christmas and it weirding everyone out. Hanna. Infeld Daniels Christmas party. Terrible sweaters. Stanton going on about Krampus. Pindar being adverse to trees, tinsel, jingle bells, what have you. Carmen loving dorky Christmas paraphernalia. Peter and Jared ending up under mistletoe and just shrugging and making out.


Perfect Christmas ep for you guys?
