Congrats on your flexing about making USD $80K though, lol, glad you aren't insecure.

You know what they say about people who graduate with degrees in economics, they’ll be able to articulate why they can’t get a job! Lol

And if the majority of the people doing so are women, that explains the wage gap right there…

if the show is serial, 3 is usually all it needs and it will go downhill beyond it. 5 is like the max for REALLY great shows. I know some stretch longer and they're fine, but if you want true wire to wire masterpiece, going longer than 5 is likely to result in something short of that
the MAJORITY of shows would probably just be better served as limited series for the sake of their story that don't really have much legs and will end up wasting a lot of time with side quests that get in the way of the overarching narratives, but the economics of it all say "popular show -> make more seasons" and creatives say "more seasons -> more money for me"
If it's like a sitcom or police procedural or whatever else is purely episodic without much in the way of overarching narrative, then sure, go nuts, do whatever you want.

They’re all on Netflix. For instance, Wednesday is at its core a teeny drama set in American hogwarts with some murder mystery and all under the auspice of Addams Family IP

Studios don't know how to market film and make a misleading trailer, tale as old as time.

It’s a bad show to watch because it’s not very good. But if you like it (a lot of people do), just watch it

Well if she didn't want to be associated with it or stand behind it, then she shouldn't have put her name on the thing and have her Production Company's name on the thing or given media interviews promoting it.

The Olympics being held in China last year and having westerners fall over themselves to praise China was a disgrace. The World Cup at least got some attention. With China it suddenly became a topic of it being racist to critique the Chinese government because current year.

7th tier club team? Holy hell they must be awful. Are they even soccer players or just women being rescued by the Australian government as refugees? That’s ridiculously bad for a supposed national team.

Everyone that worked on it and made a trash product was a slap in the face to the companies that paid them a bunch of money to make it. The product must have been such shit that it wasn’t worth the additional brand hit by releasing it and trying to recoup what you could.
