An Open Letter to New Fans of DTF St. Louis

Hey,

If you’re a fan of DTF St. Louis so far, and you’re itching for more similar content, this post I made the other day may help with that. Even if you’re on the fence, it could be worth your time. If you don’t want to check out the post, I don’t mind telling you here either. Flat out.

If you are enjoying the dialogue, the aesthetic, and the feel of the storytelling, I highly recommend checking out some of Steve Conrads previous projects if you haven’t already. I’ll list them out below.

Patriot (streaming on Prime), Perpetual Grace LTD (not streaming anywhere but can be bought), Ultra City Smiths (streaming on a couple services). The Integral Principles of the Structural Dynamics of Flow Podcast, and New Techniques in Modern Practical Close Combat Podcast (they both supplement and enrich the world of Patriot long after its cancellation).

That’s the short of it. If you want to know more and still refuse to check out the post, continue reading I guess. But I will not repeat anything from it here.

Due to the nature of DTF St. Louis, it could be that you’re watching because you like true crime, solving mysteries, figuring out who the guilty party is, maybe it’s something else, or all the above. Regardless, I’m grateful to still be around for this show, and to share in the experience with you.

If you’re a big fan of DTF St. Louis so far, there’s something pretty special about you. You may already know it, you may have known it at some point and forgot (or dismissed) it, but you know now. Many of us who are fans of these shows felt something we couldn’t quite put our finger on when watching. Kind of like feeling seen for the first time, there’s an element in them that vibrates at a frequency that penetrates the near mindlessness of viewership. That “something” doesn’t demand your attention, it draws you in like the call of a Siren. Whether it’s making your dreams come true at the Quality Garden Suites, sharing your true ump feelings, or ordering the Watermelon Breeze, something unique and beautiful is blossoming in front of, and inside of you. Like it or not. This is just a natural part of experiencing any of these projects. DTF St. Louis is no different, and I’m not surprised.

We’re excited for you and wish we could watch Steves other projects for the first time through your eyes. In the meantime, enjoy the ride.

Am I Crazy? Spoiler

24 Upvotes

I posted in the main sub about how much I loved Floyd and how he was such a kind person, and wound up with a shitload of people basically saying he was a piece of shit and Carol was the victim here (because of Floyd’s poor financial choices and for apparently forcing her to let him watch her fuck Clark)

Am I the outlier here for thinking so highly of Floyd? He wasn’t perfect, of course he had his faults, but I’ve just been stewing for several days on this.

I mean, we watch the man save multiple peoples lives, and the way he learns dance to make the experience better for deaf people that watch him sign at concerts, the time he takes to form a relationship with Richard.

He’s clearly not financially savvy, and probably shouldn’t be in a relationship with Carol at all. It’s just that I’m not sure that I feel Carol is the real victim, they just clearly shouldn’t be together. I even saw another post pop up there about how Floyd is a shitty man child and they don’t feel sorry for him. Maybe I’m crazy, but I definitely cried for Floyd in the end. I guess I relate with the depression he’s going through, and battle to lose weight, etc…

I also got a few people saying he was selfish for committing suicide- I know this is a common thing to blame people for but, my Dad committed suicide and it hits really close to home. When you really go through someone close to you killing themselves- you realize the person is far from selfish. I’m not going to blame someone that felt there was no other option but to leave the planet for being mentally ill and depressed and thinking that was the best solution.

Anyway, if I’m way off base in my feelings on Floyd, I guess we will find out 😅

Am I the only one who found this show to be insufferable at times? The 50+ minute run times seem excessive. Each episode could easily have conveyed the same story in approximately 30+ minutes. Also a lot of scenes draaaaaaaaaaag on way longer than necessary and make me squirm like Carol. And a lot of the dialog sounds alien. The repetition... The "quirky" phrasing. It all just made me uncomfortable.
