The Save Bosch: Legacy Petition Could Have Exposed This Amazon Cover Up

by

Summary

  • The cast has been largely silent about the Save Bosch: Legacy petition, hinting at a cover-up by Amazon.
  • The money invested in Bosch: Legacy yields high viewership, but Amazon still wants to end the show.
  • Amazon may have used the Ballard spin-off as leverage to keep the crew from speaking out publicly.

As a die-hard fan of the Bosch series, I can’t help but feel like I’ve been hit by a speeding car while watching this unfold. Having grown up with Harry Bosch as a companion through thick and thin, it’s hard not to be emotional about the latest turn of events.

It started off as a fan movement to Save Bosch: Legacy after its abrupt cancelation, and an opportunity to give the creative team a chance to end the story properly. However, it feels like the petition might have actually revealed something a lot more sinister going on behind the scenes at Amazon. For some reason, Amazon are determined to push this narrative that Bosch: Legacy wasn’t canceled, but the crew have potentially spoken out anonymously to refute this.

A Reddit discussion on why Bosch: Legacy was canceled revealed a number of individuals claiming to be from the production team, painting a distinct narrative about the events leading to its end. Interestingly, while the main cast hasn’t commented on the petition, Titus Welliver, who plays Harry Bosch, has been vocal in the past about his desire to continue portraying the character. This discrepancy raises questions, and it seems like Amazon might be concealing something.

The Creative Team Have Largely Been Silent About The Save Bosch: Legacy Petition And Something Is Not Quite Right About That

Michael Connelly acknowledged the “Bosch: Legacy” petition in October, and since then, there has been a noticeable increase in campaign signatures. This goes to show that petitions for popular TV shows have a better chance of success when endorsed by the creative team. However, it’s puzzling why the “Bosch: Legacy” cast seems reluctant to support efforts aimed at saving their jobs. One could speculate that Amazon might have made them sign non-disclosure agreements, preventing them from discussing the real reasons behind the show’s cancellation. While this is just a theory, it appears to be the most plausible explanation. Essentially, either the cast disliked working on the show or they are being silenced by some means. Fans can make their own judgments about which scenario seems more likely.

It’s widely understood that Hollywood is currently facing a tough time, as there are fewer productions being filmed in the region. The TV show “Bosch: Legacy” stands out among these limited productions, but it’s likely quite costly to produce due to minimal tax breaks compared to other parts of the US. However, a large number of workers who reside in the movie capital depend on shows like “Bosch: Legacy” for their livelihood. The investment in “Bosch: Legacy” is paying off with strong viewership during its first two seasons, making Amazon likely have additional motives for ending the show. It appears that Amazon wants to avoid fan speculation, but their actions have sparked it instead. It seems as though the production team may be hesitant to discuss the matter publicly due to fear of being blacklisted in the industry. As Redditor Dempom put it in the “Bosch: Legacy” fans thread, “The show needs the fans more than the fans need the show.

It seems almost inevitable to view Amazon’s decision as strategically ending shows after three seasons, in the case of Legacy following Bosch. This sudden cancellation appears to be a transparent cost-cutting measure, affecting not only the actors, crew, but also the dedicated fanbase.

Amazon Could Be Using Ballard As Leverage To Keep The Cast And Crew From Speaking Out Publicly

The series “Bosch: Legacy” will conclude after its third season airs in March 2025, making way for the upcoming spin-off series, “Ballard,” which is scheduled for release later that year. Initially, it was thought that the behind-the-scenes team could juggle both projects, but when filming for “Bosch: Legacy” season 3 wrapped up, they were informed that the show had been canceled while working on “Ballard’s” first season. This news came as a surprise, leaving the crew to focus solely on “Ballard.” Amazon is well aware of this situation, and it’s possible they used it to keep the dedicated team from speaking out about the cancellation. A Redditor who posted anonymously in the same thread referred to this as a ‘mystery.’

There will be no sour grapes in public because you still have to work with Amazon on Ballard.

Fans admired Titus Welliver and Michael Connelly’s gracious posts about Amazon as news spread that Bosch: Legacy was being canceled. However, things didn’t quite seem right, causing fans to wonder if all was well behind the scenes. While it’s true they appreciated Amazon’s decade-long support, it’s clear that both men are deeply saddened by the show’s ending. Yet, since they are working with Amazon on Ballard, they can’t publicly express their feelings of sorrow. Instead, they are trying to preserve what remains of the Bosch universe and hope that fans will rally together to save Bosch: Legacy.
