The OA is the latest fan favorite canceled by Netflix, but devotees are keeping its spirit alive.

The trending hashtag #TheOAisReal, along with #SaveTheOA, is pushing to try to save the sci-fi series, which saw two seasons before being canceled. A majority of the videos feature people doing the Five Movements, a choreographed dance that can open up other dimensions (and distract school shooters). While some of the interpretations are more humorous, a good number of people express how much the series meant to them or helped them, especially in terms of mental health.

The OA‘s Jason Isaacs also posted a video of himself and co-star Emory Cohen doing the movements, a few days before the cancelation was announced.

This is all happening alongside fevered theories that the show’s cancelation might be a fake-out or part of something bigger, given that season 2 ended on a ridiculously meta cliffhanger.
