I can name a dozen incredible shows that corporations have pulled off too, it's all a crap shoot.
True, I suppose it does go both ways. But can you name game adaptions that have gone well from conglomerates that are money driven cesspools ? Run for profit by a lex Luther esk villain ? Who hoards money like a god damn dragon ?
