Hey friends, I have started an Outrageous Fortune themed instagram account in an attempt to bring this blog into the 2020's 😆

I love this blog and will keep it going as long as it still has an audience, but Tumblr is nowhere near it's former heyday and it never will be again. I made this blog because I love Outrageous Fortune and there was nothing like it at the time, so I thought I might as well make it. So again, I love nostalgia accounts , meme accounts, and tv shows "out of context" on Instagram, so I thought I should make what I want to see.

Thank you all for your enthusiasm with this account, and I invite you all to follow my new outrageous fortune themed insta - there will be a bit of overlap but I hope to post a few times a week. May you see the posts and, like me, marvel at the brilliance that is this show

Don’t dob

You stand by your family, or you’re nothing

Don’t break into peoples’ houses (while they’re in them)

Never use violence

Don’t deal with drugs

Never plead guilty

Do your time

Don’t fuck over people you know (don’t screw the crew)

Never burgle on a full moon

Never hide money where a dog can find it

Never drink absinthe, even on a full stomach

Stand by your man

South Pacific Pictures Chief Executive, Kelly Martin adds: “Ten years ago – almost to the day - I recall the excitement at TV3 when the first series of Outrageous Fortune was green lit and it was a thrill to watch that show grow to become both beloved and acclaimed. Everyone at SPP is looking forward to taking fans back to where it all began - actually… to before it all began!”

Needless to say I am SO EXCITED!!

Anything you can think of haha I love everything you post so I wouldn't mind whatever you chose :) but I especially love the one with van in season 6 ep 1 where angel is moving out of vans and she takes the toaster and van stands there and goes 'how am I supposed to make toast?!' Haha :)

Hahaha that is a good one! I'll publish this request and I'll get round to it in the not too distant future, and in the meantime any one else is welcome to make this themselves, and if they want I can send them the screen cap and they can add the text or whatever... after all this is like an OF community where we can all work together (hopefully!)
