    Firefly… Got murdered in it’s crib. Had a audience, fans, reviews but couldn’t get the viewer numbers up to executive political games

      I see someone beat me to Firefly, so I’ll grab the low hanging fruit: GoT. The way that show started compared to how it ended? Jesus fuck, that should be a class in college in what not to do.

        100% D&D deserve a walk of shame for what they did.

        I don’t think anyone can say GoT flopped, but it probably will go down in history as the most Hate Watched series ever. To totally murder all joy, all spinoff projects, all discussion, all memes so completely of a extremely popular property, that is high skill!

            Yeah, I don’t think you can call Game of Thrones a flop by any stretch of the imagination. It was hugely successful, lucrative, and influential. It just had a shitty ending that nobody liked.

          D&D

          Not gonna lie, I stared at this for a good twenty or thirty seconds before I could process it as anything other than “Dungeons & Dragons”.
