siap

Just two quick questions...

I watched the first two episodes and it seems ok.

1-Does it go woke?
2-Is it worth finishing?

It’s a legitimate question these days. There are many people who don’t enjoy content that preaches “social justice” themes or places far-left idealism to the center of the storyline. He just wants to know if he, as a viewer, is going to have to endure this in a program he would otherwise likely enjoy.

He wouldn’t have to ask this if it wasn’t so prevalent these days in TV and movies.

At some point, wokesters have to own the idea that for some reason, creative media constantly caters to them at the expense of enjoyment for others. It happens. Enjoy the content. It is a product of your socio-political environment, which is over-represented in media.

so, watch the show, if you like it, keep watching. If you don't like it, stop watching.

not watching a show because someone else doesn't like it is dumb

So people can’t just watch it and figure that out themselves?

It also depends on what OP considers “woke”. Is he going to have a meltdown because it’s a female centric show with a girl as a hero? Despite the fact that women are representative of half of the population?

A female centric show with a girl as the hero isn’t objectionable, edgy, or new. We have been doing this sort of content for decades. Like Mary Tyler Moore show old. That’s something I’m trying to show… the positions that you think are underrepresented in media, are actually overrepresented now. What kind of troglodyte would think to watch Wednesday and then back out when he finds out it’s about a young woman and her adventures?

Right wingers don’t hate women-centric content. That’s old hat and not unusual in the slightest. They don’t like content that denigrates men. There’s a big difference, and the two concepts are not mutually exclusive.

It's a solid watch if you're a 14 yr old girl.

j/k


It's good.

There are absolutely some right-wingers that believe any content that is woman-centric that doesn’t encapsulate conservative values denigrates men.

Skipped the Willow reboot specifically for this reason. No need to even turn it on.

** Still nothing? Huh.

One of the better series on Netflix in a while. Darker than I had anticipated.
