Let's break this down for a second. You, BarbuBeatnik, along with several other posters, have essentially said that you're not sure if the new slate will be good or bad for the company. On the other hand, we have Peter's and his non-team, who have already proven that they are bad for the company. Peter has had years and years to make something out of some of these properties and he has failed.
Let's say, theoretically, you think the new slate has a 50% chance of doing this company some good. The choice then becomes:
New slate: 50% chance of success, 50% chance of failure, we can't know for sure until we give them a chance.
Peter: 100% chance of failure based on his track record, has already been given a chance, year after year after year.
