Are we unable to make new things anymore? It seems everything now is a spinoff or a remake or based on something from some other medium.
It really always has been. I mean The Office itself is a remake already. Everything builds on other works, some more directly than others. I genuinely don't think it correlates much with quality overall.
IP has been the safest bet for a while now, yes it sucks. And it’s not always successful!
Remakes are almost always a commercial success. New things are more at risk to fail, and thus cost money
Some platforms are doing a good job of green lighting new stuff.
Eh the complaint is valid for movies, TV has a lot of originality rn.
