IMPORTANT: WE ASK FOR A LIMITED SERIES FINALE. STREAM SEASONS 1-3 FROM MARCH 17, 2027

Anne with an E has captivated audiences worldwide as, dare I say, one of the most compelling shows ever made. With an outstanding IMDb rating of 8.6/10, it attests to the unwavering love and appreciation from its viewers. Esteemed creator Moira Walley-Beckett has masterfully crafted a spectacular series that brings Lucy Maud Montgomery’s cherished characters to life in a unique way no other adaptation did or ever could. (She also wrote Ozymandias from Breaking Bad, acclaimed as one of the best episodes ever made in TV history)

WHY ANNE WITH AN E CAN RETURN AS A LIMITED SERIES FINALE

1. NETFLIX and CBC
Netflix and CBC produced the show in a partnership. Why did CBC cancel the show? They initiated the cancellation because they felt that it was harming the long-term health of domestic Canadian television. How was this hurting tradition television in Canada? Taxpayers' taxes have a portion of them go to CBC. However, for a show CBC is co-producing in a fair split with Netflix in financing, Canadians themselves weren't watching it. Elderly Canadians didn't prefer the gritty tone and young Canadians streamed it on Netflix instead, which led it to ultimately feed taxpayers' hard-earned money to an American streaming giant.

Since CBC also produced the show, they hold a share of the IP just as much as Netflix and Northwood Entertainment do.

But CBC caused the freeze. They can also unfreeze it.

2. Selling its stakes

CBC cannot simply sell its stakes because 1. They're not for sale and 2. If they did, they would be very heavily scrutinized.

3. What CBC can do

CBC can lift this freeze over IP and get with Netflix for a finale limited series wrap-up precisely because of the proven data metrics of North of North, which in fact was made in a collaboration between CBC, Netflix, Northwood Entertainment, Red Marrow Entertainment, and APTN, which means that CBC and Netflix are back in business. However, NON was built on new Canadian streaming laws while AWAE IP remains frozen.

As I said just now, CBC made the freeze and it can lift the freeze and still protect domestic Canadian media IF Netflix funds the majority of the show (70-80%) which will have CBC in financial ease, protecting domestic interests because they didn't fund most of the wrap-up finale and viewers who want to watch it on CBC can watch it on CBC or viewers who don't want to watch it on CBC, well, don't!

4. WHY CBC should do this

Anne with an E is a gritty and internationally ADORED interpretation of Lucy Maud Montgomery's 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables. This is essentially promoting Canadian heritage internationally.

5. LM Montgomery Estate

The Estate wouldn't have a reason to say no because 1. They already gave license to Anne with an E before, and 2. This series is actually bringing more people to Anne of Green Gables and Anne of the Island

6. Netflix's financing

I said how CBC can agree if Netflix funds the majority of the limited series revival. Now, why would Netflix even want to fund this? This is where Kindred Spirits have to assemble massively as one unit to bring AWAE to no. 1 like Manifest fans did and make it stay there for weeks to prove to Netflix that there is still an active market.

However, Netflix's tracking methods have changed since Manifest's saving. They now prioritize not just watch hours but watch hours across unique accounts, which the Kindred Spirits fandom has the absolute power to execute, but it must return as one unit and the dormant fanbase must be awaken, which is hard to do since the 2019 heartbreak, but when ever has Anne Shirley backed down?

To all the kindred spirits who have left a signature of solidarity on this post—thank you from the bottom of my heart! 💖
