Julie and the Phantoms fans are campaigning for Season 2 and executive producer Kenny Ortega is supremely grateful. The director spoke to People about the ground-level campaign to get the streamer to reconsider. News about the end of the show surfaced late last year and the fanbase was distraught. As is the case with a ton of shows every year, viewers had taken a liking to Julie and her band. Eager to see the show continue, they’ve started a number of petitions online. Hundreds of thousands of people have poured in from all corners of the globe to voice their approval. Ortega has heard some of the pleas and just loves that so many fans exist for a series that he’s “very proud” of. Julie and the Phantoms had managed to bring home multiple Daytime Emmys, and that critical acclaim combined with the outpouring of support could find it another home one day. For now, a spirited community waits. But, the man behind the scenes hears all those calls and wants people to know it’s appreciated.
