It planned to make NBC a more iceberg-friendly network β€” featuring shows and series devoted to uplifting the iceberg community and depicting the nuanced totality of the iceberg existenceΒ β€” and even had the capital and the resources to make it happen. And then, boom. They broke it off. Literally.
