Totally Agree. It is well known proverb in showbiz - you are as good as your last hit. In this business you have to constantly be at the top to stay at the same place.

There is no possibility to create a 'moat' in showbiz. Technology (distribution over internet) was once, but now that has become a commodity.

You need hit shows, but they don't have to be new. For example, Disney+ has enough back catalog that they could probably shut down production and coast for years.
