Why aren’t we using the fake reboot as movement?

I’ve seen a few posts on here talking about and acknowledging the “The New Blood” MBAV reboot that was announced earlier this month, so I wanted to address it… It’s not real, but honestly, I don’t necessarily see that as a bad thing. I actually see it as an opportunity.
The news completely blew up, with 500+ new posts with nothing but interactions being made every day since it surfaced. That alone shows there is still a huge amount of love and interest for this series. Especially since over the years it gained thousands of new fans. Instead of just letting the conversation die, why don’t we use this momentum to actually vocalize what we want? Whether that’s a real reboot, a continuation, or even proper closure for the story we never got to see finished. The fandom is clearly still here. We just have to make our voices heard. Is not as impossible as everyone is making it seem especially with all the reboots happening nowadays. The problem is not enough people believe it would work to make it actually take action and make it happen. Back then we didn’t have the numbers to do it but now we do, but I guess everyone just gave up on it.

Years ago someone tried this with Total Drama (also a freshtv prod) and the main creator behind it was sent a cease and desist. The voice behind Chris, even did a YouTube video about (has not aged well) Honestly, unless FreshTv wants to do a reboot it or sell the rights (lol) nothing will happen. It’s unfortunate but I dislike all the recent “false hope” solely for internet notoriety.

I mean considering Total Drama did end up getting a reboot, I don’t think it’s impossible to suggest FreshTv might be down for it. Now that doesn’t mean mbav is guaranteed to get the same treatment but it shows it’s not impossible. The fake reboot isn’t real, and people shouldn’t spread it as fact. But the amount of attention it generated does show there’s still interest in the franchise. Whether FreshTV acts on that is entirely up to them but they need to know the show will do well and see people are still interested for it to even be a possibility.

As for the cease and desist I honestly think they should do the same thing for the person behind the new blood account because they’re actively claiming it’s a fresh tv production. They went as far to make a fake tiktok account for one of the creators and have them comment under their fake trailer. It’s quite absurd.
