You know, I'm the kind of gal who thinks you shouldn't spend weeks and months ranting about what you hate and if you can't do something constructive with it, focus on what you like. It took me some time to realize that, but I came to that point.
But ya know - sometimes, there are some things that are just bad. Like (as it says on the tin) the last season of Voltron.
And look - my sympathy for a writing group for a show or a film goes up to a certain point - but I consider that point to have been reached. Yes, you have a right to tell the story you want to tell, and you don't have to bend to the fandom's whims. No, you can't satisfy everyone. Yes, factions of the fandom have treated you and the cast like crap because their ship wasn't happening, and you don't owe them shit.
So yeah, for me, the extent to which I can have sympathy, in the case of whoever is responsible for season 8? It's been exceeded.
More under the cut for those who don't want to get spoiled.
