Unfortunately this isn't going away. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck revealed last year that when working for Netflix one of the guidelines they were given is you have to be able to follow the plot while being on your phone throughout the whole movie. Before they approve a script this is what the major streaming services are concerned with as a priority. Distracted half paying attention phone use has to be built into the storytelling
Man I hate this world. But also netflix exec fags don't know shit so fuck em.

I knew announcing a new show before they even had a script was fucking retarded.

I don't think I would have agreed with that statement... 10 years ago? I mean, give Tarantino the green light on something and let him run amuck. Christopher Nolan could have been given the same carte blanche. But today, it sucks to have to agree. You just can't trust anyone anymore.

But it does sound like this time they deserved that carte blanche. The fact that sissy, leftist execs didn't like what they wrote tells me it probably would have been exactly what fans wanted.

It just proves that current TV execs are fucking retarded or that it isn't about money.

Who do they think made the franchise popular enough to become considered a lucrative franchise in the first place? If that audience isn't enough to make money, then you are a shitty executive and don't understand how to be successful.

Hmm, just based on Shanks tweets it sounds like he + some of the original cast were coming back and potentially in a regular role.

Sad.

Oh well I’m sure this new executive will come out with some amazing original banger IPs that puts his name on the map. Wouldn’t doubt it if my life depended on it. I bet he made his bones with all original IPs and creative ideas in a largely stagnant movie and TV industry.…


Notable Projects Oversat at Netflix:

As the Director of Original Series and later the VP of Spectacle Series, Fetter was a core executive responsible for developing and overseeing some of Netflix's largest and most culturally significant franchise properties. His portfolio included:

- Stranger Things
- 3 Body Problem
- The Queens Gambit
- Ozark
- The Haunting of Hill House


Executive Producing Credits:

Fetter has direct executive producing or creative executive credits on several massive Netflix comedy, drama, and animated hits, including:

- BoJack Horsemen
- Big Mouth
- The OA
- The Ranch
- Marco Polo

Early Career and Move to Amazon:

HBO’s Big Love: Before his 2012 move to Netflix, he worked as an associate producer on this critically acclaimed HBO series alongside producer Peter Friedlander.

Amazon MGM Restructuring: Hired in early 2026 as the Head of Worldbuilding & Genre Series, Fetter was brought in by Amazon to oversee and streamline major franchise strategies—a role that grants him top creative authority over high-profile properties like The Boys universe, Fallout, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

…Oh
Hey now,

The Queens Gambit is actually a well done mini-series. Stranger Things was fine until the last season.

Yea thats a list of some of the biggest Netflix titles ever lol.


With the exception of 3 none of them are original IPs and of the 3 one was canceled abruptly at season 2 and Ozark was one of the first Netflix shows.

This executive doesn’t continue established IPs and its rare for him to invest into new ones. He takes low hanging fruit of already established IPs such as popular books and helps turn them into movies and TV shows. That’s what he’s known for. Nothing wrong with that.

Stargate is well out of his purview and based on his history and what he does, it won’t be something he invests in at all while he is in charge there. Petition all you want and believe his excuse that he would rather reboot it from the beginning, but he has no intention of touching this IP with a 10 foot pole.

It’s dead dead.

Oh, it'll go away when they realize no one is watching the shit. Again, they are trying to make "content" for an audience that doesn't exist.
Unfortunately that isn't the case. Netflix wins because they supply the most content by far. It doesn't matter that the vast majority of what Netflix produces is complete garbage.

At least the Save Farscape campaign actually worked back then - pretty sure that is why Peacekeeper Wars got funded

Yep. The campaign got KFC to put up like $20m to make it happen. I guess their president or something really liked Farscape, and that's why there were "brought to you by KFC" ads during all of the commercial breaks.
