If I've understood interviews and personal talks correctly what they're trying to do with this reboot is to make it so some of the things we took for granted in the OS are built up to instead of just given at the start. As we continue on, the show is gradually getting more and more like the OS on certain things. But of course artists need to be creative, and they have to put their own spin on things else they'll burn out on the project.

IMO, those same people who initially were turned off by the show at the beginning, might like it better after a couple more seasons (if it continues that long). But that's just my personal take on it.
