Crowdfunding cancelled shows

Why should I pay someone who is already rich to make shows for me? Why wouldn't they gamble their own life savings and profit from themselves?

Because noone ever does it and everything stays cancelled for years or forever

The network that owns the rights usually doesn't want to give it up.

Because crowdfunding is a scam and 98% of people can hear the basic idea of it and say "yea that's a scam"

I guess its hard to get the actors together, scheduling's a bitch. Also some of the actors might've just quit or died

So that means we have to first discuss the price with the network and then get enough money to buy them off and to pay for the whole production. That's a fucking lot but still can be done with just enough fans, right?

if a show had that many fans it probably wouldn't have been cancelled

Making a full season of tv is extremely expensive, many many times the amount of the highest earning Kickstarters.

JERICHO FANS SENT TRUCKLOADS OF PEANUTS TO CBS UNTIL THEY MADE ANOTHER SEASON OF THE SHOW

NUCLEAR CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA WAS A SPICY PREMISE FOR NETWORK TV

Googled it, it's a few millions per episode (1 to 12 depending on the show). Cartoons cost 1-2 millions for a half-our episode. So a season would cost approximately shitton. Now I get it, thx reddit I mean 4chan
