I just rewatched the series finale again after a long time. I love this show so much, it got me through some really dark times. This cast was so perfect together. The show ended too soon IMO. But we can't change the past.

It's unfortunate that Steve was never able to have an on-screen, active boyfriend in the show, but at least we got to meet his ex, Liam Napier, in "Runaway" (S4E16).

Hypothetically, if the show had taken a different route and/or if the show ever came back for a revival, who would be your ideal kind of romantic partner for Steve and why?

Criteria

We first learn that Steve was uninterested in Pete in "Love Sick" (S3E3), when Pete enthusiastically takes his shirt off. Steve reacts with shock and horror (completely unthinkable if you ask me, but I'm not the one boyfriend shopping), and begs him to put his shirt back on.

(This was likely done by Jack Kenny to combat stereotypes in television of gay characters yearning or perving on their straight friends/coworkers (ex. Kurt and Finn in Glee))

Then, in "Runaway", we learn definitively that Pete is in fact Steve's type - at least visually.

Liam's personality, of course, is nothing at all like Pete's. They may have the same taste in movies, but Steve likes a guy like himself - someone serious about their job with a no-nonsense attitude. Pete is a flirtatious goofball who takes (almost) nothing seriously.

He's already the "straight man" (ironically) to Pete and Claudia, so his partner doesn't have to be yet another "opposites attract" deal. There are plenty of other types of romantic dynamics to explore!

And, of course, they can never embody any gay stereotypes. No watching the Oscars, no celebrating Halloween like gay Christmas, no being a man-slut. Except driving a Prius, of course.

But a major obstacle is Steve's lie detection. That creates a lot of strain and friction in any relationship, and he seemed pretty confident that Liam was the best he could have done: "If I can't make it work with you - if I couldn't... then I can't make it work with anyone."

So, short of just taking away his most defining powers, whoever he ends up with would have to either help him get over the problem of knowing every time someone lies, and/or be an extremely (I'd argue impossibly) honest person that would never set him off.

Options

Assuming Pete himself is off the table for whatever reason (not Steve's type, he's straight, etc.):

• Liam Napier: Since he's already established in the story, and now that Liam knows artifacts exist, maybe they could have a sweet Second Chance Romance?
• Joshua Donovan: One of my friends is a big Stoshua truther (and Joshua/Tyler Hynes is, admittedly, very handsome). Him and Joshua getting together would be a great opportunity to elevate Claudia's brother to a main cast member. And imagine if Steve's surrogate sister after Olivia's death became his real sister-in-law! They'd have so much to bond over, like how often Claudia gives them heart-attacks with how frequently she decides to put her life at risk to save the people she loves.
• A brand new character: Adding yet another new cast member would always be a little awkward, and yet it presents the most room for exploration! What's his job, what's he like, what relationship does he have to the Warehouse (or, better yet, does he get to be the much-teased but never-explored One that has no involvement but gets to know the secret?). If Steve himself is all about defying the then-prevalent gay stereotypes in 2000s/2010s television, does this new guy have a different relationship to his own sexuality, or does he match Steve 1:1?
  • My only stipulation is that, if it's a new guy, he would have to be played by David Boreanaz and I will make no exceptions!

We’ve reached our first 100 signatures on the Warehouse 13 revival petition!

We’ve reached 81 signatures on our Warehouse 13 revival petition! Thank you to everyone who has signed, shared, joined us or offered encouragement. Seeing this grow from an idea into people coming together means a lot to me.

There’s also some news I’m excited to share: Eddie McClintock was the very first person to join our Facebook revival group! His joining isn’t an official endorsement or a revival announcement, but it means the world to me that he took the time.

I’d love your help making this a community people enjoy coming back to. What could we do to get more fans involved and more conversations going? Would you enjoy episode discussions, rewatches, character or artifact spotlights—or something else?

Suggestions are welcome whether you have time to help or just an idea to share. I’m working hard on this, but I’d love for us to build it together.

Update: We’re up to 60 signatures—thank you! 💜

Thank you to everyone who has signed, shared, offered encouragement, or helped promote the petition. Let’s keep it growing: sign and share here.

Hi everyone, I’m Mark. I’m just starting **Warehouse 13 Revival**, a fan-run effort to celebrate the show and bring fans together in support of its return.

Fans are spread across Reddit, Facebook, Discord, and other communities. I’d love to connect those communities around a shared effort that shows networks and streamers how much love remains for Warehouse 13.

Please keep supporting r/warehouse13 and the communities you already enjoy! I respect the fans who have kept the Warehouse alive, and I want to work alongside them.

We also need to **grow the audience**. Share the wonder, humor, and characters with someone who hasn’t discovered the show yet. Introduce a friend, organize a rewatch, or share what made you fall in love with it.

We’d love to hear your favorite memories, characters, artifacts, and what makes the show worth bringing back. Cast and crew are warmly welcome to share memories and behind-the-scenes stories too!

**Sign and share our revival petition:**
https://www.change.org/warehouse13revival

It asks for a return that welcomes willing original cast members and creative contributors.

What’s one Warehouse 13 scene you’d show someone to get them hooked?

One that comes to mind is Pete and Myka swapping bodies—especially Myka warning Pete to keep his hands off her body. Their reactions to being stuck as each other cracked me up. That mix of ridiculous artifact trouble and great chemistry is a big part of why I love this show. What scene would you pick?

I’m new to organizing something like this, and I’d appreciate your support getting it going. Whether you sign, share, introduce someone to the show, or contribute ideas, you can help.

This is an independent, unofficial fan initiative. No official revival or cast endorsement is being claimed.

Thank you to the r/warehouse13 mod team for welcoming this effort and allowing me to share!

**One fandom. One voice. Reopen the Warehouse.**

My comment about AI got removed from that other post, and the mod(s) suggested I make a whole post about my pondering of what an AI data center artifact could look like lol

Now I don't know much about data centers in general, in the original comment I said something about a core, if such a thing exists? Or like a main hard drive? I dunno, someone's gotta know more about that stuff to have a better suggestion

And I joked that it would make people start to literally communicate in an AI-esque form, even verbalizing the dashes 😅😅

It was hilarious! The whole telenovela style really made me laugh. And we got evil-very-gay-Steve on top! Great episode!🖤😂

That's all.

Ever since I've seen the supernatural scooby doo crossover, I've always wondered what it'd look like if the warehouse did it instead. Encountering a old original animation cel of scooby doo and it would transform everyone into animated versions of themselves. Just a idea, I really would love to get a animation one day working. One daaay. Enjoy!

So, I just finished the series again. First off, completely based reaction from Pete, I would throw even bigger tantrum I think.

However, what do you think happened next for our characters as we know that warehouse stayed for decades to come.

Please... pete has done a lot of stupid things, but please, they did this just to move plot. I did not remember this and I couldn't believe my eyes.

I AM WATCHING IT AGAIN NOW ON SEASON 2 AGAIN AND WAS WONDERING WHAT ARTIFACT IS THE MOST USEFULL IF YOU COULD BRING IT IN THIS WORLD

Another one for the warehouse

When Pete originally gets told about Myka having been in a romantic relationship with her previous partner, the person who tells him says "It was an affair, well he was already separated from his wife, but the divorce wasn't final" but THEN whenever it's relevant to a future episode and included in the "previously on..." they cut it off at "It was an affair."

Does anybody else find this infuriating?!

(No spoilers please)

So finally reached this episode.

No matter how many times I rewatch w13 while knowing my boy Steve will be ok, i can't help myself and cryyy. Pete on and under the stairs. Claudia's scream and Myka.

Nahhh, I can't. Give me Sykes bodyyy.

Currently watching the Walter Sykes episodes (S3 bad guy in a wheel chair).

When the plot is entirely driven by depriving the Warehouse crew of every ounce of common sense, it really makes me want to skip episodes.

This series should never have tried to do multi episode arcs. McPhearson was kind of OK, but even Wells was awful.

How do you justify her attempt to literally end the world? And even worse, how do you bring a character back from that?

WH13 is better as a creature of the week series.

Anyway, rant over.

I'm currently in season 4 (yes, I broke down and bought all 5 seasons) and I have to know, over all the season, are there any episodes y'all choose to skip?

I've watched the series so many times but I don't remember season 4 being this anxiety producing 🫣

Made it a few years ago
What do you think?

I finally picked up the complete collection on blu-ray and I'm looking forward to replacing my broadcast versions. However, I'm aware there's some replacement music in the first season.

As far as I can find online, the affected tracks are one song in the pilot and two songs in the Alice episode. Is that it for replaced music? I want to be sure to hold onto a copy of my broadcast recordings for any episodes that have been changed, but don't want to manually check every song in each episode.

UPDATE:
Just figured I'd update this post in case anyone comes looking for the same information later. Going from what I learned in the comments below and some other sources I've found online, plus checking throughout the series as I ripped my Blu-Rays, here's what I've come up with:

Everything after Season 1 (including Running Up That Hill) seems to be intact on the current Blu-ray release.

Season 1, on the other hand, is almost entirely replacement music. Only a few episodes have nothing replaced.
Pilot: 'Disturbia' during Pete's drive
Resonance: 'Oh Yeah' when the agent walks through the door.
Elements: 'Only You' when guy is walking through walls in the beginning.
Implosion: 'Queen B' at the very beginning.
Duped: 'I Will Survive' when disco ball drops, 'Luck Be a Lady' during Vegas intro, 'White Rabbit' when Alice returns to the Warehouse.
Regrets: 'Boys Will Be Boys' in background of club scene at beginning, 'Porcelain' when Myka is in the gun showdown towards the end as well as again during the final end scene.
Breakdown: 'Just Like Heaven' in the beginning when Claudia is tinkering in the office.
Nevermore: 'Wave of Mutilation' when the kid is first getting bullied.
MacPherson: 'Purple Haze' when the team is using the glasses.

I'm currently about halfway through replacing all the replacement music with the original tracks and it's actually not too tricky to do, just tedious.

Just doing yet another WH13 rewatch.. 😅

Never noticed it before, but am I crazy or is the guy behind Pete Anthony Head..?
