Top-tier anti-woke comedy
That's it! He is the G.O.A.T. đ
Woke! with LGBT+, the rest of the alphabet and then some.
What can you say about Toni Collette? Brilliant actor? yes. Extreme activist who influenced her own children to be gender-confused for her own political confirmations? Absolutely. Toni played these characters to perfection. It's a diverse group of personalities in one woman. The great acting is undeniable. If it wasn't for the LGBT+ agenda, this would be a great series. The son is a homosexual. The response from dad when he tells him: "good for you." A lot of the plot is about him and his "self-discovery" in a strong agenda. The story and acting is great. The agenda is overpowering. What a waste.
Straight-up popcorn movie
This isnât woke and I went in ready to roll my eyes, thinking I was about to get smacked with a giant diversity lecture and a bunch of girlboss energy telling the male leads what to do. Yeah, thereâs diversity in it, but it doesnât feel forced. And to my surprise (a good one), it never turns into that. Sure, there are a couple moments where youâre like âSTFU!â but it fits the story and doesnât feel preachy. Fun action flick, very 90s buddy-cop energy, Lethal Weapon vibes. Itâs not top-tier or anything, but it gets the job done if you just want to switch off and kill some time.
Watchable series with an abrupt ending
The first year was a short season. I think that was from the writers' strike. The second season was 23 episodes. It was the highest rated series on the network. The third season went 10 episodes and ended. No cliffhanger, no resolution of story lines. Supposedly, the first two episodes had very bad ratings. There was some kind of extra episode published on the DVD set that resolved the outstanding plots. I haven't seen that. The series had TV-level acting, directing and writing. I isn't outstanding, but it is entertaining. We enjoyed it and were annoyed by the abrupt end. Wokeness: none. There's no agenda. (possible spoilers) Kyle wasn't born. He escaped a facility where he was genetically engineered. He's good-natured and kind with superhuman abilities learning to be human. Another one, Jessi, escaped later on. She's not so good-natured. She also had superhuman abilities, but without discretion. She could beat up (or kill) any man. I don't think that's woke. It's just part of the story. The series sort of morphed into a love-triangle between Kyle, the girl next door, and Jessi. It got a little over-the-top with the relationships in my opinion. Worth watching? yes. Must-see? not so much.
