Imagine a world where the owners of an IP actually appealed to the fans of the IP. I know sometimes you can expand your customer base with certain products but certainly not when you try to do it at the expense of loyal customers.

I read a joke that Gen Alpha will think Firefly was a show that ran for 2 complete seasons instead of a show that was cancelled after half a season.
Turns out the only thing worse than the shows that made it to air were the ones that didn't, and the TV execs we all hated actually knew what they were doing all along.
14 episodes for half a season?
Stargate had 22 per season.
And 2 of those never aired, the rest aired out of order, and Fox kept changing the timeslot so anyone who did like it couldn't find it, couldn't follow it, and had no idea if it was any good beyond the two episodes they managed to catch before it was cancelled. (Speaking from experience as someone who did actually try to watch it when it aired.)
Firefly was sabotaged because one of the board members at Faux hated Scifi so much they didn't want it to succeed.
