Iʻd love to try watching that show too. Iʻd heard about the deaf characters but never had a chance to try watching the show.
Audiodescription would really fill in the blanks.

Good points Robert.
ASL, even if it had subtitles, wouldnʻt make it accessible in is case.
A good audiodescriber voice (who could also read/act what all ASL speakers say, intonate for emotional clarity) would make a world of difference.

I wrote to a few folks at Netflix and Itunes this morning, asking if they can contract with describers to make their own AD tracks for their platform. Not sure if they will say yes but it is worth a shot!

Also tweet. Since there are so many b/vi peeps in twitter itʻs easy to get extra visibility there.
