My other suggestion is "Foundation" which was basically 3 TV series in a trenchcoat in Season 1 at least. 1 had HBO tier writing and detail. 1 had middling Amazon Prime writing and 1 was The CW garbage. It had improved somewhat in Season 2 and the plots were more balanced.

I will suggest "The 100" which had varying quality levels throughout, full of The CW tropes but somehow managed to be fun.
So the argument is what, that the white people who had a ‘role model’ for their kids shouldn’t be annoyed that the industry is removing that role model, because race shouldn’t matter. But also that race representation matters, and that it’s important for other races to have representation by taking over the roles of those figures.
Regarding Doctor Who, Nguti will not be the Doctor forever. He's just one of many. Whether or not he was specifically chosen because he's black or not, I don't know, but I don't see any inherent problem with the Doctor being black. Race shouldn't be core to the identity of the doctor.
I mean, we’re busy watching young guys flock to alpha dumbass influencer bros, in part because there are fewer and fewer positive role models for them to look up to.
I think this is a much wider issue beyond the casting for Doctor Who. I'd argue the general decline of entertainment monoculture in general plays more of a role here than any particular creative decision for remakes or reimagining of TV series and films.
This is a very unusual take in my opinion for the show. It's more commonly believed that the Rosita and Gabriel matchup made no sense.
I know nothing about those particular shows or films. I would expect a US remake of a show or film to possibly do recasts.
Does this upset you? I believe Thailand also did a modern reimagining of Snow White too, with a Thai actress playing the role.
Doctor Who has always been a character who can regenerate and reform by design. They're an alien species. I'd argue its more important they're eccentric guile heroes in performance than their sex or race.
It depends on context. Doctor Who is a fictional character. Historical figures are not. It isn't hard to understand why there are different reactions there.
Well I guess I was hoping people wouldn't reply with "Game of Thrones" lol. I do regret not time restricting it though, in hindsight.
Dude I'm just trying to entice continued activity. I appreciate that some here are sharing more popular shows. Maybe I could make a rating cut-off point on IMDB (5k votes or lesser) and remove all comments that include a show above that threshold lol.
Hi, I've reciprocated on ObscureMusic. Whilst I'm here I'd also like to note a typo you've made in your last link. "70's music" is listed again for 90smusic. It's also on your sidebar too.
Tbf the Joseon era in Korea did last for just over 500 years. It makes sense it'd dominate on a scale larger than say, Victorian-setting dramas in the UK do (and they're pretty common)
Let me know if I've missed any. It's tedious to compile all this because no streaming service seems to understand how to actually share whats coming next properly.
Notably though, it really did have a garbage ending.
