She’s a nepo baby that’s lived her entire life with a silver spoon in her mouth. Whether or not she saw the backlash coming isn’t really of much consequence. She doesn’t seem to have the sense to show support for people who are getting screwed and struggling to survive in the industry.
Did she even frame it as "I'm doing malicious compliance to make sure my crew is paid but the show will intentionally be shit" a la Conan?
I’ve always hated her. I don’t know what it is about her, but her personality was always so off putting. Well now I have a solid reason when people ask me why I hate her.
Damn, I wish she had gone through with it. The two episodes she would've gotten out before it got cancelled would've been some of the cringiest things on TV.
