Spitewashing

Taking a highly regarded intellectual property and changing it for the worse. This usually occurs because the author hates the general fan base of said property and/or to generate buzz for their own lackluster ideas.

You can tell this show suffers from spitewashing because of the terrible writing and the disdain you can feel for the property coming from the writers.

Spacewashing

1) The process by which corporations, governments and individuals promote the development of space technologies and programs to mask extractive and exploitative industrial practices, distract attention from social, environmental or economic problems, and/or to gain financial, military or political advantage.

2) Sending our dirty laundry to space.

cf: greenwashing

The race between Elon Musk, Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos is at best a dick measuring contest and at worst spacewashing of the first order - it leverages science fictions to hide corporate greed and military interests, whilst simultaneously distracting us from the imminent environmental collapse of the Earth.
