1.unjustifiably, surprised very few, impractical 都说明了这个CEO是多么不靠谱。所以句子整体意思实说他有多不靠谱的。所以是：根据这个CEO这么不靠谱的成功，大家都不惊讶最后他没能成功逆转这个本身就在挣扎中的公司。

2. realize 有 实现／cause sth to become true 了的意思。e.g. her dream realized.(她梦想实现了） her potential unrealized 等于 她的潜力没完全开发出来，因为她周围的人都阻止她去追寻她的梦想。

3.熟悉VSN的读者觉得他之前是个喜剧作家的这件事情本身就很有喜感 －（破折号后面是解释why）因为他后来写的东西都那么（悲催）。
