Why would Disney cancel a show with such great waifus?

Why would Disney cancel a show with such great waifus?

Because waifus don't pay the bills.

Because no 11 year old gives a shit about Tron, and it was an absurd mistake to have thought that they would.

I dunno dog why don't you tell me.

Didn't sell enough toys.

I once listened to a lecture/presentation by one of the artists who worked on this show. It was a coincidence since I had no idea.

When he talked about Tron Uprising he said it was one of the most memorable projects he was ever a part of and beamed when he discussed how much they put into the art direction and designs for everything. It just made the loss hit harder

Nah, it got ratings just fine. What killed it was sending it to the Gulag that was Disney XD at its start, and even then scheduling for graveyard times.

Hell, the Tron revival in general was pretty great all things considered. They just de-prioritized it when they got their hands on Marvel so they didn't have to make it a core IP anymore. And now that they have Star Wars, they see no reason to keep it alive what with shelving Tron 3.

Shit floats, Gold sinks.

It was Tomorrowland flopping that killed Tron 3. It was almost ready to start shooting, but they pulled the plug the week after it came out.

Fuck Damon Lindelof. He screwed up the potential that Tomorrowland had and ended up killing another Disney Sci-Fi property in the process.

>based on an unsuccessful sequel/reboot to an already niche movie whose fans are middle aged by now
>on a premium channel no one had
>most people saw it through piracy or (very briefly) Netflix
>Disney acquired Marvel as Marvel popularity booms, forever cements itself as the most powerful entertainment company on the planet

It was destined to fail.

Because Sup Forums is fucking cursed

Nobody was watching. I'm not surprised that the show was a bit too serious to attract kids.

Honestly the show was perfect for the teenage crowd. It fits that niche of an age-range which anime usually fills.

But it required patience to reach the payoff, which teenagers don't have. The series was great as a whole, but I honestly can't site any one episode that is amazing on its own.

The two Dyson episodes are pure gold

It doesn't have great waifus. It has no waifus at all. No animation does.

I heard that Disney canned it because they felt the story was too much for kids and they were afraid that kids would take it that it was ok to go against authority.

I was watching it online so the scheduling didn't affect me, but didn't they broadcast new episodes at midnight or something?
Also, I remember trying to buy the series digitally on iTunes and Amazon, but it was region-locked. They refused to let me buy the episodes and support the show.

I don't understand these instances where they spend a lot of money to produce an ambitious series (the celebrity VAs and that unique visual look must've cost a lot), but then they place the show into a situation where failure is guaranteed.

Tron 2 wasn't good to begin with.

Most of these shows at the time had some of the same problems.
The target audience was boys below 10 and these shows missed that audience and instead brought in a bunch of teens and 20-something adults.
Then they never made any toys and merch for any of these shows and complained that these shows were just unprofitable.
Then after a while, they would start shifting episode air dates around until most people couldn't possibly know anymore when their favourite stuff was actually airing without consulting the internet. This was made worse because some shows would just go on hiatus at random points in their run as well.
So ratings of course dropped because noone fucking knew when things were on at all or if their show was even on anymore or if the show had just come back. No one fucking knew.
Then they shoved them into graveyard shift timeslots for the last 4th of the run just to make the clusterfuck complete.

Fuck TV networks. Let it all burn and die out. Netflix is doing god's work right now.

Yeah but Uprising was.
And maybe it could have lived.

When she talks though. . .

Because Disney is a fucking evil media empire

I get diamonds in my pants when she talks in her Canadian grifter voice. I think I gots the maple fever

Oh really?

Mara is the best Disney Princess.

Paige was the only decent waifu

I still love how they managed to show some pretty brutal onscreen deaths almost every episode, with the justification that theyre only "programs"

The designs and music were great.

Everything else was average.
