The creators of this show have proven that they put nearly no effort into writting these episodes, since most of the episodes for season 3 are crap. They put more time into the merchandise then the show and for more then a year, they have made absolutely no long term decisions for this show. They take hiatuses that can last for a month to 3 months, just to make decisions for the next four episodes, not for rest of the series, or even the rest of the season.

Do you guys really believe that the creators have suddenly decided to work harder on this show, and have actually made a long term decision when they have proven that they care more about the merchandise for the younger demographic and the resulting profit then the actual show? If so, then you guys are gullible! No offense. To be honest, no. I'd really like to believe they want to work harder, and to that extent their announcements have credit in that they probably believe what they're saying. But you're right that the show's development is too subject to short-term whims, many of them very ill-conceived. I think we can mostly rely on the integrity of their public announcements two or three months after the announcement. But beyond that, no. Then we shouldn't believe everything they say, maybe they said this to surprise at the mid season finale. But if that was actually their plan, it was poorly thought up.
