  • I actually didn’t get that sense this time. Certainly the trailer left a lot to the imagination, and that’s letting me imagine impossible features that weren’t shown. But I thought Murray was very tame in his explanation. He didn’t really promise anything beyond a giant procedural world with multiplayer, and we know they can deliver on that. Everything else might suck. I get why people are skeptical about this, but I’m feeling confident that the final product will match what was shown here.






  • I think this may be different than the Jeopardy situation. I know there’s a general sentiment that Burton was the best option - and I felt the same way at the start of the process - but I’ve read a lot of behind-the-scenes accounts that suggest Burton simply wasn’t good at the job. They had to spend hours refilming segments in ways that weren’t necessary for other hosts, and the finished product wasn’t as good as most of us were imagining.

    Obviously the Mike Richards situation was ridiculous, and maybe there was sabotage we don’t know about. My own sense is that the hive mind was wrong about Burton for that specific role - and that’s not a knock on Burton! - and things concluded well for everyone.
