All these new series, I think it could get confusing for casual fans like myself. I think a lot of people are always trying to fit the characters and stories in the world and timelines they know or find out how they relate to or effect the most familiar thematic events. If they make it too vague shows may not be as popular but they also can’t hit you over the head too much as it seems these series will really try to expand the universe and connections between series could be very complicated.
