Julance Day 10: Broadsword

Lance unlocking a third weapon with his bayard was so iconic, wish we could have seen more of it.

Writers are not the problem. Artists are not the problem. They almost never are! Corporations are the problem. Execs are the problem. So many great shows get sabotaged by their own studio (I.E. Rise of the TMNT) and then the studio turns around and acts as though it was the lack of fan engagement. It’s why I tend to watch shows that were made years in the past. They created the problem and now they’re scapegoating writers.

If studios gave up on every show that had a lackluster first season that didn’t pull in the numbers…we wouldn’t have had classics like the Office, OR Parks and Recreation, OR Brooklyn 99. It took a while for those shows to get good.

Writers WANT to create! It’s the studios/corporations that are the problem. It’s A.I. art that is the problem!

Reward writers! Reward artists! Support them! Not the big company’s that don’t respect them!
