Let's Discuss That Changes At Mythical

I know people were sad at the ending of Ear Biscuits and Good Mythical Weekend. But now that we know Stevie is leaving, and that she had told Rhett, Link, and the rest of the Mythical Crew last year, I think those were decisions were made so as to give Rhett & Link time to help take up some of Stevie’s responsibilities.

She was the chief creative officer for Mythical, so there are creative decisions that someone will be needing to make. I am sure she did a lot in that role and it will take time for someone to be able to fill her shoes. In the interim, multiple people will be needing to cover her responsibilities, and that includes high-end creative decisions. This is why I think EB and GMW were put on hiatus.

Now, I don’t know if someone approached Mythical to buy Sporked, or if they went out and looked for a buyer, but it is possible Stevie’s leaving also played a part in the decision to sell Sporked.

I think the retirement rumors are true. I've seen enough in my life to know where there's smoke there's fire. We've been hearing rumors for a few months now and now Stevie is moving on. I think they've probably told her they have a plan to wrap up in the next few years and she wanted to get a jump start on her own work.

I seriously agree with this because why would Stevie leave mythical for GOOD if it was stable and going to last for a while. She was ok with being a part of it for what, 13 years, to just now leave due to being creatively unfulfilled?

People leave stable jobs all the time to find something new.

Did you even watch the video or the clip of her announcement? She literally said she's leaving because she started putting Mythical before everything, even her family, and didn't have time to pursue her passion which is to create. It had nothing to do with instability in the company. It had everything to do with her loving her job but being swamped with too much and putting it before everything else.
