No way, someone should be doing a documentary on this. The failure was too epic to forget.
Agreed. Imagine having arguably the biggest piece of media going, with endless potential for merchandise, spinoffs etc. and deciding to just rush through the end, ruin any lasting legacy, and cost yourself future work. And for what? The hope of moving onto the next project sooner? The next project that you were then let go from due to the colossal failure of your last project. It's fascinating in a way.
It's absolutely amazing how such a massive show with a huge fanbase completely tapped into the story managed to fuck it up so hard that literally everyone stopped talking about it immediately after the finale. It takes garbage writing of epic proportions to make every single one of your viewers wish they'd never seen your show.
I'd seen shows blow their stories before but never one with the amount of money and talent this one had.
