I feel like the show would’ve been better if it was 6 episodes or less. The main issue I had with it was pacing. It was clearly a story you could tell in fewer episodes but they stretched it out to 8. Like one episode was literally the same as the other, just from a different character’s perspective. That can work in certain cases, but it didn’t for the show because it already had pacing issues in the first place.
I wanted it to work because of its place in the timeline, before everything else and provide more history.
I thought the show was contrarian and edgy in obnoxious ways, its own lore was contradictory and even silly, and "both sides equally right and wrong" is boring centrist bullshit.
Chuds saw a FEEEMALE and political people and opened a new front in their culture war.
We are not the same.
apparently so mid there wasn't even backlash to the backlash endorsement of it like the movie or all the free advertising they gave tropes vs women
I hate chuds going of course. That said, I did exactly what you just said: I couldn't be bothered to defend the show myself because it was just bad for non-chud reasons.
It's a worrying sign. Disney should have more of a backbone against trolls.
