Let the insanity begin
Epix would like you to tweet a letter to Richard Armitage. Geez, the man already has a hard time keeping up with fan mail.
Join us in writing a heartfelt letter to one of our favorite spies, Richard Armitage. 🕵️♂️ #NationalLetterWritingDay @RCArmitage pic.twitter.com/4ybPe8l46W

Dear Richard Armitage,
I’m wondering why you’re still in this show. Asking for a friend!
Love,
Serv

I think I’ve decided to buy EPIX again (instead of cheating), so maybe I’ll rewatch season 1 — it’s been about a year since I’ve rewatched.

i find i have to watch each episode twice (maybe too distracted by RA?) I still wish they’d filmed it a bit differently-bit longer focus on each character so you may actually form some attachment to them

it’s really a huge problem. There’s so much going on (often with minor characters) that there’s no time to invest in the series regulars. It takes forever (for instance) to find out Valerie’s backstory.

What a weird call from Epix. I wonder what they’re hoping to achieve by it. 🤔

… the incredible cynicism of asking for tweets on “National Letter Writing Day.” Not that it’s a sacred holiday, but like this is supposed to be in any way meaningful?

I am not going to write here what I really think, but suffice to say that I actually hope against hope that hardly anyone follows this call for tweets. Just because I believe that no one should gift their attention and time to a Twitter machine which regularly calls for engagement and never follows up on promises.

well, genuine shock that he’s tweeted a reply a few minutes ago in response! i stand corrected that he even would acknowledge that people did tweet in response to the epix tweet

IKR? I should decide to run errands when I’d rather stay home in the warmth more often!

Yeah — I just rolled my eyes. EPIX’s sm is so lame, and what’s the point here? Why now? Were they bored?
I saw though that Audible is also ramping up its Armitage fan love — they replied to a few people yesterday asking them to participate in something or other, fan friday or something like that.

i guess that’s it-it’s just advertising for BS isnt it?

Yeah. Admittedly, this is a hugely raw point for me in the fan experience — that the creators of these things who already make money on them use the fans to do free labor.

Seems kind of silly to me. Oh well, I guess I’m not who they’re aiming at anyway.
