Stories From the Rest of the World
Z, Australia
Was browsing on Youtube last August during COVID for things to watch (particularly wlw shows), and came across a fan video. It’s funny but at that point I thought the wlw couple would be Wynonna and Nicole, so I decided to give it a go on Netflix. Never looked back since, never been so invested in a show. It’s my comfort show. The creation of Wayhaught was truly amazing and I love how being gay is not an issue on WE at all – that’s the world I want to live in. They really make you believe in love. I’ve never come across such a dedicated and interactive casts, I only wished I had discovered WE earlier and got to attend at least one convention. But so glad to be part of this season 4 journey, and really hoping season 5 gets a green light.

This is truly one of the first shows where I feel honestly represented. Not only does the show depict family relationships but the way it respects and honours the lgbt community and the way the cast have been absolute committed to authentic truth telling is a first for me in tv. I feel seen and valued. To see a strong female character in Wynonna be able to be both strong and vulnerable and have the loving relationships she has developed not only with her sister Waverly but also with Nicole is special. Each character is fully formed and not stereotypical. She is truly unique in the TV landscape. The men are also not typically masculine - they are true men in every aspect of what that word should mean. The Homestead is Home, it is Love.

A friend recommended Wynonna Earp in 2016 but because it's supernatural genre which isn't my fave, I didn't watch it until 2018. I saw photos of Kat and Dom on my timeline when they're in EarperCon UK and it was love at the first sight. I started watching Wynonna Earp and the rest is history. It's just in time when I struggled so much between school, work and life. I live by myself and my family is abroad. I cried a lot and felt guilty about many things. But Wynonna Earp showed me that it's ok to cry, it won't make you less strong. Wynonna Earp women showed their vulnerability and yet still badass. It really got me through it all. I owe them my life, literally. I'll support the show and the cast with whatever I can is the least I can do.

I started watching Wynonna Earp back in March 2020 during quarantine. This show means so much for me, especially when I was coming in terms with myself and my sexuality. Seeing Waverly discover herself in her own journey has been so inspiring to me and makes me feel seen because I don’t feel weird about being queer. Now, I feel more like Nicole, more accepting and confident about myself and not living in the shadows anymore. Seeing Wynonna accept Waverly, Nicole and Jeremy has given me hope that yes, there are people who are willing to accept and love you, whether they are blood family or not. I can’t express enough gratitude to the entire cast, crew and the team for making this beautiful show! Thank you for giving me a new life!

I feel like this is the best TV series I've ever seen,this show teaches me to not to be afraid of who you are and waverly and nicole are so sweet together, I hope this show doesn't get canceled because this show can change the world and how people think towards pride or ashamed of themselves being gay etc

This show and more so Wayhaught actually made me for the first time in my life feel comfortable with who I am. I can go out to family event now with out being uncomfortable and free enough to be me. Thank you Wynonna Earp,

I stumbled into WE in netflix. I was having a depressive episode and it had me so liveless. I gave WE a chance and something about it gave me the push I needed to get on my feet again and it helped me find direction. My life has change so much because of it for the better. I would love for it to stream in my country again! I bet it can change someone's else life, too!

I started watching the show during the early days of the pandemia and it really was a motivation during these difficult times. I never thought that a series could help me so much, each character has taught me a lot. Especially Nicole and Waverly, their story show me that love is the most important thing and that I should not be afraid to be who I really am. In the end what matters is that a person makes you happy and love deeply. That’s why thanks to the show I gained th courage to come out to my family and friends. I remember when I saw the first kiss between Nicole and Waverly, I said to myself, I want to be like Waverly and just go for it, be brave as she was.

Wynonna Earp pulled me out from depression and anxiety, and to love myself.

I was searching for some queer content last year in the midst of pandemic when I came across Wayhaught in Instagram. Checked on their story through Youtube and instantly fell inlove with their amazing chemistry. Binge-watched it in Netflix from then until now. Wynonna Earp had helped me kept sane during this pandemic. It is my comfort watch since then and I have never been so obsessed with a TV show before. Finger-crossing season 5 will be confirmed soon.

I found it almost a yr after my partner passed away thru browsing on youtube. I love supernatural and action so naturally got curious. I saw my own relationship in wayhaught there a lot of parallel things to mine. I cant open up to ppl as im closeted. Wynonna Earp saved me from a dark place, depression and self damaged. It made me smile and laugh again and not feel alone. I saw the good in ppl, and prompt me to give more to others.

Wynonna Earp came to me during the lockdown, which is also the time I felt most alone in my life. Unfortunately in my country, there aren't enough good shows with women so powerful and good LGBT representation. This show not only excites me, but warms my heart as well. It has introduced me to a community wherein I can truly be myself and feel like I belong.

Before April 1, 2020, my life was like a living hell. I was figuring out my sexuality, which is really terrifying, did not have any friends and felt like a stranger even with my family. On April 1, 2020, I came across an Instagram post with best wlw couples which had WayHaught. That instagram post changed my life completely, in the best way possible. I found a family. Wynonna Earp helped me accept myself. It gave me friends and reasons to be happy with my life. I came for WayHaught but stayed for the love and support it gave me. I'm scared, if Wynonna Earp does not get picked up (which I really hope it does), I might be back to the sad, lonely, depressed girl I was.

As a young kid, there was little to nothing involving LGBTQ+ rep so there was nothing that I could look up at and say ‘hey, their like me’. Then Wynonna Earp came along, and gosh did this show change my life. I became an official Earper in 2016, I was 13 and I found it through a top 10 list floating around YouTube and, yes I did come for Wayhaught but I stayed for the badassery that is Wynonna Earp. I got to witness one of the greatest love stories ever told about two women finding each other even in literal Purgatory, I can say without a doubt that Wynonna Earp saves my life This show has taught me to fight my demons head on but not by myself, that family can be chosen not blood and that love always wins. ❤️
