Thats expected and i kinda feel  like they had to. Beau isnt there to carry out his vision for season 3 so Im sure there are things introduced in S2 that would end up being dangling plots that make no sense. The rewrites will help allign things and make it feel more cohesive and less jarring when the show moves in a different direction.

 

I think a change in headwriters will be a good thing. S1 was enjoyable but was TOO fast paced. Beau knew the source material well, almost too well to a fault. It felt at times like he was just throwing things in there just for the fandom without having any intent on developing it. It was like dude, you are burning through so many plotlines; lets save some for future storylines. In fact his style felt like what you see when writers dont know they will get multipl seasons so they write each one as if its the last. I think the show would benefit greatly from slowing down and takin proper care to developing the characters bc at times it felt lik they had no room to breathe. That style of writing really hindered the show and it would have been much stronger had it not been so fast. The new weriter definitely should not try to follow Beau's style.

Sorry for the late reply, but I was just always under the impression that barring some animation that S1 and S2 were done back-to-back. At least the writing. Perhaps I just misunderstood because Beau might be gone, but he stayed extremely active online with tea and hints. 

 

While I feel and understand what you guys said, I've also been of the school that when a showrunner who put their imprint on something leaves, it tends to suffer. IE. ANGEL, THE ORIGINAL when their showrunners left before their respective last seasons. Granted, it's animation, but I can't help but feel a bit of caution with someone new coming in. While the new guy could make it very cohesive, he could also be so into putting his imprint on the show that it becomes less cohesive so...waiting and seeing. 

 

Same.

Marvel Studios is notorious for completely micromanaging and overhauling their projects in both pre-production and post-production. To varying degrees of success. Definitely not out of the ordinary for them, but definitely a wait and see as there isn’t too much out there to really judge the new show-runner on.

In related news, Kevin Feige is making the rounds promoting Deadpool & Wolverine this week. He mentioned that they’re excited to finally tap into the more soap opera elements of the X-Men IP in live-action soon. He might not necessarily be a fan, but Feige does seem to have a shred of respect for soaps. Perhaps because his grandfather was Robert E. Short - who once oversaw soap operas for P&G as the Executive In Charge of Production.
