I mean...

“[Fox executives] also wanted to concentrate on the younger pilots, who didn’t have as much to do with the original Independence Day,” Devlin said. “They thought that young people wouldn’t want to watch Jeff Goldblum, which I thought was crazy”

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2.

I think it’s not even that, but basically being a show produced before Iger coming back in Winston Wolf mode and pumping the saturation brakes on all their brands, I think it’s just getting it out the door as fast as they can while they remap the future plans (which I don’t expect Echo to be a big part of), quality…
