Is there a TV show you've ever watched that failed, that would've been handled better on another network? (piefed.social)

For instance, I watched Brave New World in 2020. It was on Peacock. One of their early releases. It was cancelled after one season. It wasn't bad, but I feel like it had Apple TV written all over it now.

Overhyped, meandering, and lacking a cohesive vision? I dont see how that would be an improvement.

    Witcher was fucked before they even started shooting, because the writing team was picked based on the popularity of their recent works, and the executives who hired them never actually asked them what they thought of the original books. Turns out the writers completely hated the books, and picked chapters totally out if order to adapt into episodes.
