I thoroughly believe that the main 2 issues plaguing the TV art/entertainment industry today are representation anxiety and cancellation anxiety.

Representation anxiety is the reason why the quality of the storytelling is suffering.

Cancellation anxiety is the reason why the quality of the production is suffering.

ANXIETY is what is ruining TV show storytelling and producing in general. If people were less anxious about the way the story in a show should or has to go, there would be more focus on what actually matters.

There are so many storytelling and production issues in a show because people are not focussing on the overall experience when creating/watching a TV show. Showrunners/creators are not focussing on it because they’re too anxious about providing the “correct” or “best” or “most palatable” representation because if they don’t provide it, their show will just get cancelled.

Honestly imagine the extreme anxiety a showrunner/creator would feel in this day and age of showmaking.

It is a never-ending loop for them of “I must provide the representation that appeases both the audience and the network alike” and then “if I don’t do this as soon as possible, my show will be cancelled and everybody that depends on me will lose their jobs”.

Show disappoints the network, gets cancelled - which in turn disappoints the audience, stops them from watching anything else like it in case it happens to them again - which then makes the network misjudge it as “this kind of content must not be engaging enough for consumers to invest themselves in” but they throw it out for consumption anyway because quantity over quality even though they’re ultimately going to axe it regardless because “it doesn’t sell.”

And then the whole thing happens all over again. 😩

Sounds to me like they should just have better communication with the showrunners/creators and more faith and trust in what they’re able to deliver.

And maybe once in a while CONSULT THE AUDIENCE themselves. Make them apart of the conversation more than with just the standard lazy feedback questionnaires. I’m pretty fucking sure were a BIG WIG network executive to actually take the time out of their oh so busy work week to talk to us about what it is we want and what we don’t - things would be better for all sides. For the networks, the showrunners/creators+team, and for the customers/consumers.

At the end of the day the people I really feel sorry for regarding this is not us. It’s the showrunners/creators.

I feel so sorry for the producers, writers and directors because I know they’re all running rings around themselves trying to please every fucking body and every complaint from either side goes right to them.

They’re the mimimim wage staff at your favourite restaurant where customers and employers alike yell at them over something they’re personally pissed about but they can’t do anything about it other than offer their sympathies and provide other alternatives.

You think we have it rough as the viewers.

The network thinks they have it rough.

No.

Who has it rough are the showrunners/creators.

Literally nothing going according to plan today, ok.

Do you ever just feel so frustrated about a show being axed....not only because it resonated with you, but because it had so. Much. Potential. A show oozing so much damn potential that it's painful to think about everything that could've been. The incredible character journeys, new relationships developing, dazzling worlds and visuals, yet to be seen...to never see the light of day. This is what keeps me awake at night.

You know, I had to sit here and think about this for a few minutes because, even as a kid, I don't think any of the shows I watched regularly got canceled until they already had many seasons under their belts. Including all the cartoons I watched.

Guess that must be a thing about having been a kid in the 80s. I mean, even shows I watched like Small Wonder and Out of This World were on for 4 seasons each. (Which, back then, was all you needed -- 96 episodes -- to have a good syndication run and be set up to show reruns of that show until the end of time.)

Even shows that got canceled in my late teens to early-20s that got canceled didn't hurt me on that kind of level, such as Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Because it's 4th and final season sucked. And Angel the Series was already in its fifth season when it got canceled, so while I was sad it was ending, I was okay.

So yeah, for me? Me being cold and bitter and heartless over a show getting canceled starts with Netflix canceling Anne with an E and Julie and the Phantoms. And I mean, at least Anne with an E got 3 seasons before it was canceled. Julie and the Phantoms only got one season. F U Netflix. 😒 Even now this is why I'm wary about starting any show Netflix produces.

I’ll never forgive Fox for canceling Pitch. NEVER.

The last time I supported a streaming service?

It was Netflix. It was specifically to watch ‘First Kill’ and ‘Warrior Nun’. The former was cancelled after only one season despite the unpredicted success it had. The latter was cancelled after two seasons - again, despite the unpredicted success that it had.

Netflix cancelled them so I cancelled my subscription, let it expire and haven’t resubscribed to them since.

I’m doing just fine. There’s no reason to pay monthly for a streaming service that can’t provide anything I actually want to watch or engage in and anything I do actually want to watch or engage in just gets cancelled before I even have chance to be emotionally invested in it anyway. They’re not helping themselves.

Not paying their content creators properly just adds on to the reasons why no one should support them.

I hope Barbie is so good and successful it makes every executive that’s turned everything bright and fun made for young girls into edgy boring teen dramas for the last ten years spontaneously combust into flames

Aside from a few exceptions, My Lady Jane is kinda boring and I get why they cancelled it.

They would have been better off making each book into a two hour movie. Then fans would have gotten a complete story.
