shareI'm rather enjoying watching them fall apart. They totally deserve this kind of punishment after the dogshit woke films they've put out over the last 6 years.
shareCan all these people who think that "woke" content always fails explain to me why Heartstopper (Netflix), Sex Education (Netflix), Euphoria (HBO), The Last of Us (HBO) have been highly successful?
Thanks
Also, whilst we're here - can we have some examples of some highly successful socially conservative modern TV shows please?
Has anyone besides the OP heard of any of these “successful” shows?
shareIf you've never heard of them, you're out of touch.

"ACCORDING TO HBO, “Euphoria” Season 2 episodes are now averaging 16.3 million viewers"
"ACCORDING TO NETFLIX, new teen comedy Sex Education is on track to be seen by 40 million subscribers a month after its January 11 premiere as well."
^You think woke HBO and Netflix wouldn't lie about their numbers? LOL
Why would they both prop up apparently highly unsuccessful TV shows?
shareHollywood only cares about woke messaging not success.
shareNo reason to believe this. HBO and Netflix have cancelled tons of shows that don't perform.
Check out Euphoria's ratings on IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8772296/
It's massive.
And are you going to suggest that The Last of Us is niche?
You still trust IMDB ratings?
shareYes. Name me a better source please.
You'll note that IMDB often review-bombs *against* "woke" TV. Rings of Power got review-bombed. But Euphoria, Heartstopper and Sex Education did not get review bombed. Why is this? Why are they all highly successful shows?
Why is the Last of Us *increasing* in viewership, and breaking records?

You think review bombing only works one way?
shareIf Euphoria was rating-bombed, it would have 99%. Euphoria's rating has been solid throughout. It's one of HBOs most highly respected and watched modern TV shows.
So I'll ask again: Why, if 'woke' content fails... do people tune in to watch Sex Education, Euphoria, The Last of Us and Heartstopper?
No one can verify those shows are really getting those numbers.
shareSo why would HBO and Netflix renew highly unsuccessful shows, as you allege?
And you unironically arguing that Last of Us has been a failure?
And here's an industry site that analyses trends:
https://tv.parrotanalytics.com/US/sex-education-netflix (6.1 times the average show)
https://tv.parrotanalytics.com/US/the-last-of-us-hbo#:~:text=Parrot%20Analytics%20has%20found%20that,have%20this%20level%20of%20demand. (27 times)
https://tv.parrotanalytics.com/US/heartstopper-netflix (2.9 times)
https://tv.parrotanalytics.com/US/euphoria-hbo (24.8 times)
How trustworthy is Parrot Analytics? Are they run by pscho leftists like Twitter was before Elon bought it?
sharehttps://www.parrotanalytics.com/company/
Dude, it's an analytics company.
And are you going to unironically suggest to me that The Last of Us is actually floundering, and no-one's heard of it?
Last of Us is based on a video game that was very popular before the game went woke so it is probably doing well. How well the show is doing can't be verified, though.
shareExcept HBO releases data telling us how well it's doing.
Are you genuinely arguing that it's not being spoken about online?
Look at the IMDB metrics: https://www.imdb.com/chart/tvmeter/?ref_=tt_ov_pop
Disney is the top-earning movie studio.
shareBoth of you socks or bots should stop playing the fools.
It’s about financial profit while indoctrinating and promoting their political bullshit woke agenda and to appease the degenerate left.
Except a lot of 'woke' shows have actually been cancelled. Netflix will cancel anything that doesn't do very well. But a lot of 'woke' shows (or shows that may be so-described as such) have done very well, and been highly successful in viewership.

All companies spit out TV shows regularly. Most of them fail. This is nothing new.
Can you tell me why Sex Education, Heartstopper, Euphoria and The Last of Us did not fail despite easily meeting this servers standards for being "woke"?
I have not watched any of those shows and not planning to except maybe TLOU depending that it is not a wokefest.
shareBut that's not relevant.
All of those shows did very well (or are doing very well, in the context of TLOU)
1. The woke-left audience
2. They change/exaggerate their ratings
But you already know this....... stop playing the dumb bot/sock.
(1) Which apparently is a lot of people. Enough that HBO broke its own records. Why aren't people watching good old conservative TV shows?
(2) [citation needed]
stop playing the dumb bot
shareAre you just going to devolve to insults?
shareAre you going to stop lying?
shareI haven't lied. I am not bound by your presuppositions.
Why is HBO breaking its own viewing records with TLOU?
Are you expecting a different answer? China is a state capitalist country that merely larps as Communist now.
shareA different lie is still a lie all day every day.
shareYou seem to be unfamiliar with the concept of lying. I haven't changed my position, nor did I initially lie.
shareApparently, that would be you.
You told a lie and tried to convince others of the lie with bullshit sources, then insisted that I provide refuting evidence which I did and you hesitantly admitted it since you were cornered with the facts. Now you are back to square one with denying and lying.
You didn't even read the sources.
All you did was provide generic factsheets. None of which actually dive into how the modern Chinese economy works, and simply take their historical claim of being Communist as true now.

These types also seem to be unaware that GenZ loves this kind of programming, and that people who complain about "wokeness" sound like a bunch of out-of-touch, old-timers.

If you haven't heard of TLOU, you're not paying any attention.
shareYellowstone is a highly successful conservative leaning show but it's an outlier. Inclusivity sells. Viewers are more diverse than ever before so casting & subject matter should reflect the audience.
shareIs that specifically 'conservative' though, or just 'not leftist'? Not seen the Yellowstone cinematic universe.
shareIt leans conservative but the writing is solid so i think it transcends political lines, casts a wide net. Must have a lot of independent/non affiliated voters, I mean viewers.
shareIs this true? 7000 people out of work under Joe Biden.
shareDisney brought in more money than any other studio last year.

2022 Domestic Box Office Postmortem: Disney Leads In A Year Of Continued Repair From Pandemic
Republicans always say they care about the family and children - yet they destroy Dieney under the BS idea that it is too woke. I'd rather have Disney running the country than the Republicans - and I don't even care much for Disney.
shareThey aren't destroying Disney. Disney's main money-loser has been ESPN.
shareThis is crazy......if things, tv shows, movies don't make money, forever in history these companies went in a different direction.
What is really scary is that losing money isnt deterring them. They are actually doubling down.
Statistically it doesnt make sense...they are targeting small demographics, many who dont have the money to be a part of Disney.
Test book wise it looks like they are doing it on purpose.
