But whether or not the blame solely laid on her shoulders, a point came where there were enough straws on the camel's back". You get a lot of things in development and hopefully, you realize early enough on that it's not working and you don't have to spend too many wasted man-hours on it. As Bruce Timm explained years later "Early on, before we had even hired Sean, we had developed a bunch of scripts with a bunch of different freelance writers that just didn't happen.
