Synonyms of zombiefranchise; simpsonitis
1a: an intellectual property that no longer has its original creator and lacks effective leadership.
2a: an intellectual property that should have ended but now exists only to make money.
3a: an intellectual property that has almost no ties to the original creators. Often purchased by an unrelated company and left to slowly fad into irrelevance with a lackluster continuation of said IP.

eh. Crash and Spyro may not have their OG teams (though TBF not many games have that), but the teams behind the N'Sane & Reignited Trilogies, Crash 4, and Crash Team Racing are still very much present. Crash Bandicoot is definitely still an alive-and-well IP... Spyro, maybe not so much, though TFB did a wonderful job on the Trilogy and I know they could make something incredible if given the opportunity.
