Hollywood Needs To Support The Save Bosch: Legacy Petition

Fans are preparing for the final season of Bosch: Legacy, which is set to land on Prime Video in March 2025. Amazon canceled it back in September 2024, and the fans launched a petition on change.org to save the show and give the creative team a chance to end the story properly. It’s still very early days, but the petition has garnered over 7000 signatures so far, and it won’t stop until Amazon listens to what the paying customer wants. However, it’s not just the fans who need to sign the petition to Save Bosch: Legacy:There is a lot that Hollywood could do to get the petition the exposure it needs to really make a difference.

Hollywood has a huge platform to voice their opinions, with so many of its stars very active on social media platforms. Fans listen to the creative people they idolize, and will often retweet the kinds of things the stars put their support behind, and this helps to spread the word. But this can also work the other way too, and Hollywood can listen to the fans and retweet what they put out there about the Save Bosch: Legacy petition. Hollywood is not in the strongest position at the moment, with the industry changed forever after the COVID-19 pandemic and the actors and writers’ strikes. It’s time for Hollywood to speak up to Save Bosch: Legacy, and the movie industry as a whole.

Hollywood Is Unraveling In The Aftermath Of The Strikes And Bosch: Legacy Has Paid The Ultimate Price

Hollywood is in a tough spot at the moment. Productions are moving away from the area in their droves, especially in the aftermath of the strikes, meaning the movie capital of the world is a shadow of its former self. Is it really Hollywood if movies and television shows aren’t even being shot there?Bosch and Bosch: Legacy are the quintessential embodiment of Los Angeles, and it’s been a joy to see Harry Bosch’s crime stories unfold on location in the area for over a decade now. In many ways, the cancelation of Bosch: Legacy feels like the beginning of the end for Hollywood. If one of the best shows around is gone way before its time, it raises doubts about the future of every movie and television show, especially the ones shot in and around Los Angeles.

It has echoes of Tony Soprano’s famous line in the pilot of The Sopranos: ‘Lately i’m feeling like I came in at the end, the best is over’. Of course, this was a reference to the mafia, but it now rings true in relation to the current state of Hollywood. There is no golden age of television on the horizon unless powerful Hollywood folk start ‘knocking on doors’ as Harry Bosch would say. The talent is there for another golden era, but so is the risk aversion of the big companies like Amazon. Bosch: Legacy is a proven commodity so it shouldn’t be a risk to invest in more seasons or a movie version, but Amazon hasn’t backed it. Imagine how difficult it is to get a new movie or television show into production if this juggernaut can’t survive. Only two of the 12 television shows that won Primetime Emmys in 2024 were actually shot in California, and that is a worrying stat.
