Notes to writers and producers.
IF👏 YOU👏 MAKE👏 AN👏 ADAPTATION👏 THAT👏 IS👏 FAITHFUL👏 TO👏 THE👏 ORIGINAL,👏 YOU👏 WILL👏 MAKE👏 LOTS👏 OF👏 MONEY.👏
Witcher died when they started changing things
Rings of Power died when they started changing things
Game of Thrones died when they ran out of source material
Halo died when they started changing things
It has nothing to do with race, or gender, or whatever bullshit you hide behind for your ego trips. Take your ego out of the equation. Stop thinking “I can improve on this”. No, you can’t. People love this. Just write this. Stop thinking “oh, this would be so much better if I added–” NOPE. Stop. Even if you’re extending the canon, consult the original authors. And if the original authors say “this doesn’t really match the tone”, then FUCKING REWRITE IT UNTIL IT MATCHES THE TONE.
Rings of Power died when they started changing things
Died? It barely got one season.
Game of Thrones died when they ran out of source material
The best season of the TV show was season 6, when the writers could finally start paying plot lines off rather than stringing people along.
Make 5 seasons then end it. Nothing worse than shows that go on too long then start to become shit.

Better than Green Arrow by a country mile
i’unno, never seen green arrow.
Have they fucked up their power scaling so bad that they had to make god himself the enemy, and invent a being stronger than god to defeat him?
Less power scaling than retreading the same “flashback to that time I was trapped on an island” about three seasons past it’s expiration date.
Has Amazon released anything that’s made it a full five seasons?
Isn’t Expanse 5 seasons?
Though they didn’t start that project so maybe it doesn’t count there.
Syfy produced 36 episodes over 3 seasons. Amazon bought the show from Syfy and produced 26 episodes over what was functionally 2.5 seasons. I might have been willing to give Bezos more credit if he hadn’t nixed the show in its final arc.
