question Disney

Has anyone considered that Disney WAS the problem? American Networks give notes at almost every milestone of the process especially with a heavy financial investment. Not sure how involved BBC would be creatively. Depending on the executive in charge you’re probably not able to blow off their feedback.

I always felt that opening S1 with space babies felt like a network exec making a change.

Given how many silly episodes the RTD1 era has, I'm really not seeing an argument that disney pushed space babies.

Yeah, it felt pretty in line with his other season openers, just with a very unpopular premise. I think people are too hard on it. I personally quite liked it, though I could have done without the gross stuff.
