I...I don't get them. Seriously they are always rebooting.

They had shows to build upon, City hall, let the right one in, the man who fell to earth, etc.

Instead of rebooting, promote it and if it's not working tell the showrunners to fix it.

The constant reboots and cancellations do nothing but have them start all over again. They are literally kicking their own a** at this point.

Who's running things over there.

Claire even offered to give her an abortion if she wanted to (a DIY one but I mean she literally managed to perform complex surgeries and singlehandedly invented penicillin, so by the show's logic it would have worked and been perfectly safe) but Brianna refused because abortion is bad I guess 🤷‍♀️

And, yeah, she could have at least gone back to the 20th century so she could give birth without a massive risk of death, but nope.

Very neat. Thanks for the heads up.

They’ve also some tie ins with the upcoming D&D movie. The group has a brief cameo in the film, and I saw some toys and a book from the series in stores. Wasn’t a specialty nerd store either, that book was on display in a supermarket.

Weird but neat to see the property getting a bit of life to it again.

Ive said the same thing. The original had issues but at least it often made me laugh, it was entertaining! This version of the show was like episode after episode of queer people having serious conversations about serious topics and apologizing to each other, which wouldnt be that big a deal to me if it was interspersed with more actually fun and funny scenes/moments. And a lot of characters in the OG had good, believable chemistry, I didnt feel much of that in this version. I didnt have FUN watching this one the way I did the original
