Today, I found out it’s the 40th anniversary of a show I loved as a kid. It ended with a cliffhanger and I was always left wondering. Turns out there was a crowdfunded audio book with the actors five years ago. They’re all sold out and it’s impossible to get. Guess I’ll never know. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I wanted to stream my favourite show illegally, but it turns out the website got shut down and anyone affiliated would face fines. It's a bit of a shame because I had one episode left in the last season. FML
Today, I started this show and was really confused what was happening until I realized I accidentally started from the last episode so I basically ruined the whole show for myself. FML
Today, I had to cover for a coworker so I worked a 12-hour shift. I worked so late, I missed the final episode of Game of Thrones, which I have been really looking forward to. Guess who texted me, talking about how it ended? FML
Today, I had an anxiety attack when I learned that my favorite book series is coming to the end. I had to leave the store and sit in my car. FML
Today, I got the ending to Breaking Bad spoiled for me by a cashier while I was buying the final season box-set. FML
Today, I realized how alone I truly was when I caught myself talking to a podcast. FML
Today, I spoiled the ending of my favorite show for my friend, so now I'm banned from watching or discussing it with them. FML
Today, I spent 30 minutes talking to my friend about a new show I was watching, giving all sorts of spoilers. When I finally asked, “What do you think?” she stared blankly at me and said, “I’ve never seen that show. I thought you were talking about a different one.” FML
Today, I discovered that my recent binge-watching of “Young Sheldon” has caused me to hear Jim Parsons’s voice narrating everything I read. Including this FML. FML
Today, I work for a public radio station and I found out our funding was slashed in the new federal budget. Meanwhile, there’s a military parade planned for the president’s birthday. I guess I’ll start podcasting from my garage then. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Aren't audiobooks just sound files? How do you sell out of those?

No luck - it was produced using Indiegogo and did not go through traditional publishing

Licensing - the rights holders only allowed sales for a limited period of time because they don’t like money, or something?

What's the show? Also, you'll never know what you'll find on eBay, Etsy, or other resale sites.

I found them online under 'Robin of Sherwood: The Audio Adventures'. Looks like you can buy it as a boxed set from the top googled link for £14.99 and on Audible under the 4 parts of the box set: King of Sherwood, The Trial of John Little, What Was Lost, and The Meeting Place.

Thanks for that, I had no idea they'd done a finish up to the series and I just got paid so 💋 for doing the Google hunting for me.

Should I admit to having a life long soft spot for Ray Winston because of this series?

Sure. Just don't admit it was actually from 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'.
