War Machine already was an unparalleled success, something that pleasantly surprised Marvel since, as Avi had told you back then, the TV show side of Marvel was purely done out of a desire to generate revenue from characters they felt would never make it to the Big Screen, or from those who were just not that popular there to begin with.
Of course you disagree, most vehemently, against that. Every Marvel character, with proper preparation, can shine wither in the movies or in TV shows. It just so happens that some characters may only shine when they have the extra time to be developed like War Machine was, and some characters can make a greater splash if put in movie form, like Captain America.
The deal done with Netflix was another decision that you had no input in. Netflix offered to share the costs and to pay a hefty licensing fee in order to have the shows be exclusive to the new "Streaming Network". You don't think you'd have chosen differently, but it would have been nice to at least be given the choice in the end. Despite that, you had no complaints. Netflix had kept its side of the bargain, had made sure to allow you free reign (or as much as you could have with Marvel still looking behind you) with the TV shows, and in return you had helped them get new subscribers (they know very well where that sudden surge came from).
The point being, back when you started it was the Committee, as well as Avi and Ike who gave you the ideas and Pitches to begin Production on the TV shows. This would be the first time you could contribute on ideas, characters, and TV shows alike. Shows that perhaps would not gain enough traction with fans when shown on the movies, but would definitely get many of them when shown on TV.
Then again, you could also just skip this year and try it again for the next. You are still working on the Avengers film after all (Oh God, why did you have to think about it!?!) So you're sure that the rest of the Execs would not be that hard on you this time around.
This is a discussion update. There's no need to vote to make suggestions, just bring up your ideas for TV shows. Collaborate with each other or not to make a Pitch, or just an Elevator Pitch. Or just discuss what character you want to make a series about. From those I may chose some.
