MODERATORS
as always there is nuanced to everything, if I see a comedy or horror I'm not going to hold it to the same standards as a drama that is trying to convey a message, there will be a limit if it goes against my values in a crazy way, and I'll stop watching it, but my main mentality is not there, I don't watch it from a "defensive" position, so my alarms don't go off as easily as other people's, and I assume more good intent by default, which allows me to enjoy more of them, even if they "make fun" of my way of thinking or morals.
Being able to laugh about yourself or your beliefs without thinking you are "helping the other side win" in some kind of imaginary online culture war is quite healthy actually.
I was talking about objectivity and whether media is good in a sense of writing, execution and delivery. I will always give something the benefit of the doubt like you said, give something a try because you obviously never seen it. But why watch something that is clearly low effort and poorly thought out or planned? All that seems like an attention/ cash grab especially ones that try to appeal to a specific moral audience while disregarding any other viewers. My example is any show aimed at a straight white male that is very obviously disregarding any possible other viewer I consider poor writing and not well thought out.
This seems a bit reductionist, though I guess it depends on what you mean by "disregarding any possible other viewer". Any examples?
If you mean racism and sexism, then that's obviously bad. But I don't see anything inherently wrong with having a target demographic
I think you are reading into it too much, a show, like friends that is very simply written for one target demographic means it is not very good. That’s all . I consider this a bad show that isn’t very funny. Instead of accepting it because everyone I know likes it or it’s on cable television.
