I'm turning over a Murder Drones AU in my head where it doesn't have a bunch of retcons, walkbacks, and Changes In Creative Direction between the pilot and the second episode, so it stays a Vampire Horror instead of turning into Eldritch Horror which the titular Murder Drones are basically secondary to; it has JC Jensen as the ultimate villains, thus giving this AU the title "Corporate Drones"

but the fact that some manner of "The Corporation" is the main antagonist means that in my head, the conflict is turning kind of "Worker Drones of the universe, unite! You have nothing to lose but your DRM chains!"-shaped.

Like. The canon show literally has a group called the "Worker Defense Force". Like
c'mon.
@DizzyTheVoid having only just heard about the show earlier this week, and watched it all at once completely blind, oh was that an actually thing with's production? guess I hadn't thought about it from marathoning it, but yah the direction seemed to change after ep 1
