    Well, that’s the thing. It’s not like writers. don’t have original ideas. It’s just that the producers are too terrified to take a risk on an original idea.

    But, apparently, they’re not too afraid to steal original ideas from the Internet. Fucking chickenshit motherfuckers…

      Writers in general have original ideas, but Hollywood filters them out. Hollywood selects for boot-licking and ass-kissing. Anyone with thoughts of their own washes out early.

      It also doesn’t help that >90% of content is crap, no matter the medium. It’s a risky investment.

      That being said, the way to handle those odds is to make a lot of smaller bets and listen to feedback. Once you average everything out, you can get good returns on investment
