Hollywood: Arbitrarily Sexual Assault whack-a-mole (II)

[Lucavi]

Can't wait to see the hardcore show fanatics clamor that he should be given a free pass because canceling the show would be far worse than prosecuting a woman and child abuser.

"An entity makes a thing I like! It should be immune from prosecution!"

I'd be nice if these complaints were about all the people who are about to be out of work becasue of this and not whining that some obscure plot point will never be tied up.

You and I both know it'll never be that way, haha.

"He made Thriller" is about to be replaced by "He made Rick and Morty".

Should definitely not get a free pass if the allegations are true, and based on the screenshots, I'd be inclined to say they're all true.

But that doesn't necessarily cancel the show. Sure, he's the voice of Morty and a lot of other characters, but it's not like a voice actor can't be replaced. Hell, they could even make it a story point of Morty going into puberty and changing his voice slightly.

Show will just end, and that is fine. There is no 2 and a half men recasting that should let it limp along.

I mean, I guess it depends on what their deal with Cartoon Network is, as they ordered 70 more episodes in 2021.

Oooph.

Talk about not doing due diligence on what sounds at face value to be a large deal. They likely have a clause in the contract though for something like this.

Time for reruns of Cow and Chicken to fill the gap.

[Qalbert]

wasn't it ordered earlier than that? I thought it was around season 3, and that the 70 would bring it to 100 episodes. either way that's still like 40 undelivered. I just don't know that it's feasible to continue without him, at best you'd get a 'gas leak season' like Community that doesn't really please anyone.

A single tear shed for House of Cards.

[synistar]

You would think Warner Bros. Discovery would drop the axe and place this show in the financial loss pile

[NynJa]

Could there be something in the contract that has a stipulation about actions that damage the company brand?

[Mrbeansman]

Its gonna be really hard for the network to do the right thing. Show is the crown jewel of adult swim and possibly cartoon network as a whole.

Yeah, and they haven't really had a good show (not calling it good btw) otherwise in how many years?

[TsingTao]

Early seasons of Venture Brothers? Long time...

Meanwhile at Warner Bros headquarters...

Brother, you ain't wrong.

"Don't assault X thing because it makes Y thing I like!" is the fucking credo of the fanatical fan.

Any fandom. Any fanatic. It doesn't matter. It always applies.

Fan is short for fanatic for a reason, and who the fuck takes a fanatic seriously?

I already saw someone on reddit making the argument that his talents shouldn't go to waste. Even saying they should give him a recording studio in prison to keep the show going.

For what it's worth I like R&M as a show but I am fine with it dying if it means sending a piece of shit to jail who deserves to be there. If the voice acting is picked up by someone else and the show continues I hope this dude is sued to oblivion so that all his royalties have to go to his victims. (assuming that he is found guilty of course and the allegations turn out to be completely true)

[Zealot]

I mean, Kenshin came back.

I've never watched Rick and Morty. I guess I should start before its gone.
