As opposed to human writers who are never heavily inspired or influenced by copyrighted films and shows.

I watched and love the original L word. It was kind of groundbreaking at that time. I also watched the New L word Generation Q for 2 seasons mostly for nostagia. It was honestly not very good. There was no new stuffs and even the sex was kind of boring.
Did not watch the 3rd season.

Same. There are just too many shows on way too many platforms to keep up.

Kiefer still has immense charisma so I am curious, but I really really want Jack back, dammit!
Also, was Designated survivor any good? I know he was not action bad ass in that, but anyway.

Well hopefully it was a good run. I was a big fan of the original L Word and wanted to check this out at some point, but I prefer binging the whole thing.

The characters didn't really have much depth to them. They all came across as surface level, where all you have is the 2 sentence description a writer comes up with when building a rough draft of their character list. And at times it felt like it was being used as a vehicle to educate the audience rather than tell stories. You don't need to present representation and inclusivity as a PSA.
Conflicts were predictable. Reactions were predictable. Basically was as cheesy as a daytime soap opera.
Nevertheless I still watched it, cause we have almost no shows like this, and am disappointed it got cancelled.
Get a better team behind it. Don't just kill it. So we'll see what happens with the reboot.

>but Brianna refused because abortion is bad I guess 🤷♀️
The show really didn't adapt how all the characters are deeply religious in the books. Bree is a practicing catholic who grew up in 50s/60s Boston, of course she'd think that abortion is bad.

They're looking for Taylor Sheridan clones if you know any!

Out of the 7 main character 5 were raped. The other 2 didn't get off easy though, one grew up with a physically abusive father and the other one was severally beaten up and sold into slavery for a brief time.

I think season 8 is totally fine, Doggett is a good character and it was a nice change of pace after season 7, which has the worst episodes in my opinion. It is hard to get over Mulder being gone though.

watch the episode of South Park from a few weeks ago if you thing ChatGPT can write as well as humans, as least at this point in time.
They used a script written in ChatGPT for one scene and, while it is made obvious they are doing it in the show, even if they didn't you can tell the exact first line that it takes over from the human writers.

> but really they should probably just kill it 100%.
Why?
How many shows out there are made specifically for an LGBT+ audience?

I knew this was coming with the Paramount+ and Showtime consolidation.
Would've easily gotten 5 seasons at least before.

I'm not sure if he's different now, but he was a heavy drinker. Freddie Prinze said he was terrible to work with on the set of 24. He would show up drunk and be a jerk. There's a picture of him drunk as fuck at a bar sitting with his pants around his ankles. It's pretty funny

The Inner dialog gets annoying after a while but there are the only funny lines here and there too. But yeah, totally get it.

Designated Survivor is good. It got 2 seasons and they cancel it But netflix gave it 1 last season so it got a proper ending too. Maggie Q is very good in it.
Kiefer did not see any action though.
