I was looking for a pic of Callisto and found a behind the scenes pic of Disney's Xena remake:

That really is a sad state of affairs.
Ahsoka was disappointing but there is no excuse and it's bad planning to not have a second season the following year. That just makes the hill to recovery so much harder, even if they make a good second season. Now it'll be that disappointing shows next season from a few years ago.
I thought Andor's scripts were all finished before the writers strike and minimal filming left. So what has gone on to delay it so much? Issues? Andors the best thing they've done but they fucked the TV shows with shit like Kenobi and no one watched it. Then such a delay. That's such bad franchise management.
No one knows what the fuck Skeleton Crew is. Jude Law and a space ship manned by kids trying to do Star Trek in the Star Wars galaxy? Is that right?
I assume the Acolyte marketing will be heavy on yoda and then be about a diverse chick who is lame and gay.
I watched some of the Bad Batch s1. Didn't finish. I'm an adult.
Tales of the Jedi, didn't watch. Wasn't every episode meant to be about a young female who is great or some shit?
Why no more Mando? I think I read they were just doing a movie instead of s4. Not sure if true. Instead of trying to interconnect shit. They should have just got some writers instead of relying on what Faverau scribbles at night before he passes out from too much red wine. They ruined that show with the interconnected shit.
Honestly, if Book of Boba Fett season 2 was on that list, it'd be the most voted for.

What Galaxy Brained market strategist gaps like that on a dying franchise?
I imagine Disney has concluded (late) that they have oversaturated the market, but they still refuse to admit they had oversaturated the market with crap.
They oversaturated the market with capeshit for over a decade and the normies swallowed it up wholesale even as the interconnected shit was starting to get confusing. They (sadly) culturally displaced anything not Marvel for the last decade, and they only started losing people when they went hard into intersectional woke bullshit and got rid of all their attractive, white beefcake leads.

Please tell me that is fake, that they aren't remaking Xena. It looks like a cheap comedy parody.
This is the actual photo you were after

jesus christ this has to be fake; it looks like some cheap cosplayers getting together for a Xena meetup.

Ah yes, the Bo Katan show, which clearly will not just be a big waste of money and failure due to how Season 3 turned off most of what audience was there.
Oh, and the Acolyte is supposed to be a crappier version of that Studio Trigger anime special with the twins, since it was like one of a few things that even had signs of life in terms of fan interest. Just with more Parent Trap aspects, probably some very stupid takes on the Sith and Jedi, and having a double billed actress who probably will suck at acting and have recieved pronunciation.

Fuck, do I need to start putting /sneed after I post a joke here like on frelling reddit? Of course it's fucking cosplayers. How would Disney even get the rights to a Universal-owned IP?
Since Star Wars sucks let's play Fuck, Marry, Kill: Xena, Gabrielle, Callisto.

Can't remember Callisto at all, so I'm going to say kill. Fuck Xena because she's got this constant resting bitch attitude going on, marry Gabrielle... although it would be a very loveless marriage.

To be honest... I can't see them remaking Xena, or Adventure shows from the 90s and high concept shows from the 80s.
Sure, they might start to get to the bottom of the nostalgia barrel, but these shows are perfect opposite for the current day writers and show runners. Not because the shows themselves are -ists and -phobes, but because they are fun, self contained stories that don't take themselves too seriously, but are sincere. Sincerity and fun for them must be like what garlic and sunlight are to vampires.
Yeah, the metrics and industry wisdom says that serialized shows are better for binge watching but... they are not. Seriously, these HBO wanna be shows actually require attention, while the older style episodic shows are basically popcorn. I think it's easier to just watch a ton of episodes of the A-team than Breaking Bad. But maybe I am some weird mutant, lol

I know people who are not old, well younger than me who watch plenty of serialised shows on streaming all the time. One of my friends is like 30 and watches SVU on a loop.
One issue they'd have is staffing the writers. I'm sure the reason a lot of shows these days have a thin plot that makes no sense that is padded across the 10-episode seasons is they didn't come up and learn to write on non-serialised shows.
People like Vince Gilligan give credit working on the X-Files for teaching him how to write and tell stories efficiently. When you're learning to write on shows like X-Files, Xena, Star Trek, Buffy, sitcoms etc. You have to be precise and clear. Waste no time. Work fast and hard. Get the episode done and move onto a new story. They'd tell stories that'd be entire seasons' worth of story in new shows today in 45 minutes.
How many of the current generation of writers would even know how to write a big self-contained satisfying 45 minute episode?
I wonder if another issue would be actors. Doing a 20-episode season doesn't mean you can comfortably shoot a show and a movie in a year. Not that they should need a big name or anything.
Then there's the production issue. The obsession with trying to be near cinema levels, slows things down and makes it expensive. Most of these older shows had the advantage of SD broadcasts. TV is expensive now.
It's very possible someone will come along, rediscover 20 episode seasons of mainly unserialised shows and bring back the desire to make more and remakes.
If they did Xena now, they'd probably hire Queen Latifah in the title role.

First three episodes are about how Dooku became a sith, the other three are the adventures of baby Ahsoka.
He's the guy Edward James Olmos played in Miami Vice.

You know what, I mistook it for Star Wars Visions... I think. Haven't watched either. I think it was s2 specifically where I heard Chris Gore talking about it all being the same shit.

Shows today do have ridiculously high budgets per episode. Even if you adjust for inflation, a 24-episode season of a 90s Star Trek show or Babylon 5 would cost less to make than a 8-episode season of any show today.
And a lot of that concerns the writing. Some conflicts in Star Trek were solved with diplomacy instead of fighting and special effects, which involves engaged writing, so costs aren't that much.

1. Did we need to know about how Dooku became a Sith?
2. Authorities need to check Furloni's basement, ensure that there are no 6 year old girls painted orange tied up in a sex swing down there

Didn't that story already get told back in the old canon? Dooku was disillusioned with the Jedi Council and the Republic for years, then he gets assmad that his apprentice Qui-Gon is dead thanks to a Sith, and that the Council isn't trying to hunt down the second Sith. He says ''FUCK THIS'' and goes off to hunt down the second Sith on his own, then said second Sith instead seeks him out, talks with him about a plan to remake the galaxy into a more orderly society, and Dooku goes from ''IMMA KILL THIS GUY'' to ''maybe he has a good point.''
Not to mention that they aren't dark enough for the people running modern-day Hollywood. If they ever try to make a ''fun'' Xena show, it'd be a gory one where the humor is that she lops off some guy's manhood while making a joke out of it. Their definition of fun is something like Amazon's The Boys.

Furloni's basement needs to be investigated by cops, but I thimk they'll find a wolf coated in orange can spray.
