I think it is allowed. See all my examples :)

It’s just super unlikely that any of us will get to see the early versions. When something is repeated hundreds of times, being there for the first one is pretty rare.

Especially when you consider that the versions that didn’t work get killed quickly whereas the things that worked get repeated lots.

The Internet is making an odd allowance on the idea, though. Criticism and such often devolve into ridicule and attacks. In ways that I've been seeing spill over to many work interactions.

And then there are plays and such. I ridiculed power rangers back in my adolescence, but I have grown to appreciate the unpolished nature. And I think I miss it.
