The Search For More Money: How Netflix's Cowboy Bebop Lost A Fanbase By Trying to Find A New One
Originally Uploaded to YouTube 1/17/22
In this video I posit that the failure of Netflix's Cowboy Bebop adaptation is not only due to the horrible writing, horrible acting, or other elements of general horribleness, but also to the fact that Netflix alienated the original fanbase of Bebop. They did so by focusing too hard on making changes that might update the series and bring in a new modern audience, all the while not realizing that every change they made caused more and more true fans to smell a rat and jump ship. At the end of the day they ended up with a product barely resembling Bebop that failed to bring in the new market they wanted, and that old fans only hate watched in order to cherry pick the worst moments to include in their cringe compilations. I also try to explain how mistakes like this happen. What is the thought process behind making such drastic changes when adapting an existing property? Why make any changes at all? Are these changes really necessary? Come watch me poorly explain all of these points in a video that really should have been three separate videos less smooshed together!
