I haven't read that in years, but now I'm inspired.

I wonder if they could sustain the time slot for a few weeks by airing the best episodes of the old anime, like a highlights reel. Goku vs Piccolo Daimao, Super Saiyan, etc
I don't know how all that works, but couldn't they go on like a like a month break and play a couple of re-runs? Or like you said maybe a best of segment? Just to lighten the pressure for the animation staff and crank out some better looking episodes. I think people could wait.

The thing is that if they dont run Super at 9am as scheduled, they will lose money. They have to pay the contractors no matter if they air it or not, so airing it as scheduled every week is the best option for a business.
