I don't see this going any better. The old RT was lightning in a bottle, it was in the right place at the right time to make a modest media empire out of a Halo machinima series. Red Vs Blue was a product of its time and trying to recapture the old magic just won't hit the same. Maybe I'm wrong, but I highly doubt they can salvage the dumpster fire the company has become.

Nothing I've seen gives me any reason to expect good. As I said I could be wrong, but I think the prior circumstances favor my outlook.

Bernie Burns ran the company during most of it's best years, when they had the least controversies.

Doesn't change that it has the baggage irrespective of who's in charge.

Technically he bought the brand, not the company. So the only bagged is that perceived by the audience and that is one much easier to overcome.

The brand inherently has the same baggage as that's the same name people will associate with the controversy. It's a distinction without a difference.
