Makes you wonder why they wanted it if they were just going to ruin the
original storyline?  I know the answer... $$$ ... but still.

Something similar happened when Chris Chinball got hold of Dr. Who.  It got
a little more "woke" than it had been, which I was ok with, but then they
retconned a lot of the established history of the Doctor.  Fans in various
forums on the internet have even suggested that the next show runner, who
was the original showrunner for the revived series, might want to just have
the previous Doctor wake as if from a dream in order to erase the whole
Chinball era and reset the canon back to where it was before he mucked it
all up.
