“When I started to think about what ‘Watchmen’ was going to be, trying to think about it in the original source material, the book was highly political,” Lindelof said to the Television Critics Association this summer. “What in 2019 is the equivalent of the nuclear standoff between Russia and the U.S.? It felt like it was undeniably race and policing in America.”
God I hate politics. The book was not "highly political." I enjoyed episode 1 but it frustrates me that a show creator bases a story continuation off of his own interpretation instead of the authors. No wonder they didnt want anything to do with the show.

Ohnoez, Orange Man Bad. And you are, too.

If you're white, you should be embarrassed by the sins of men who are long dead. And you should share some responsibility for it. Again, this show doesn't have a story line, it is divisive political messaging dressed up in stylish costumes.
