Even when they were bad, they could be made great. Through Razorfist, I discovered there was a cartoon of Battletech/Mechwarrior made in the 90's. It was absolute ham, completely over the top, didnt really fit the tone of most Battletech lore, and there were a lot of other non-canon things that happened with it. So the show only lasted for one season and then was ended.
BUT, the Battletech lore owners decided to run with it, and made the cartoon canon. Not that the cartoon story was canon, the cartoon itself is canon to the Battletech world. In lore, it was made as childrens propaganda for the Inner Sphere, which is why it portrays the Clans so over the top.
I just thought it was a fun way of sidestepping a bad product, and you would never see modern Hollywood think up something like that.

Ah yes, the one with the augmented reality tech used by the invading battle clans. Yet another cartoon sadly cancelled just as it was getting into its stride story wise.
I was watching those as well. 80s and 90s tv and cartoons are great
