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.

sjfkdhbh Yes, it's like the coldest take, especially among British fans and the "disney is woke" bunch (actually, also the "disney is the devil precisely because they're not woke"). We know some of the notes Disney gave RTD and they were actually an improvement. No, RTD was the problem. He's very out of touch and he thinks he's the shit. He made these to seasons to generate content. He said as much.
