Once again, the Netflix original series, “Sense8,” is trending on Twitter. But this time, it’s over good news.
Fans were crestfallen when the streaming service “unceremoniously” cancelled the LGBT-friendly show on a huge cliffhanger — and on the first day of Pride Month. Now, they have reason to celebrate, because “Sense8” will return to Netflix in 2018 as a special 2-hour series finale.
The show’s official Twitter account relayed the announcement on Thursday, and overjoyed fans quickly broke out the happy-crying GIFs.
IT HAPPENED!
