Amazon have decided they don’t really care aboutBosch: Legacyanymore, and they are going through the motions when it comes to promoting the upcoming final season. Fans had been calling forAmazon to actually promoteBosch: Legacyfor ages, and they finally relented and unveiled the release date for the third season last week. Unfortunately,the excitingBosch: Legacyupdate didn’t come as a total surprise to the devoted fan base, asbleedingcoolnews.combroke the news nearly a week before Amazon’s official statement.Clearly, the site didn’t get the embargo memo, and more shockingly, Amazon did nothing to stop it. Why? They don’t care. Case solved.
If the release date forReacherseason 3was leaked ahead of time, the press office at Amazon would go into a frenzy, and demand that the offending site remove it at once. Amazon is the equivalent of a parent that has a favorite child, and their pecking order is Jack Reacher, followed by Alex Cross and in distant third place is Harry Bosch. Amazon definitely knew the release date had been unveiled ahead of time, but they just didn’t care enough to get the post taken down. This is actually surprising in a way, asAmazon’s favorite pastime is creating a culture of silence surroundingBosch: Legacy.
