Oh yes, I know. But I wasn't talking about looks, I was talking about sexual identity here in this example, with what my gf thought of the new Batman movie, wasn't I?
Yes this is becoming more prevalent in adult TV dramas where at least one of the main characters is either bi or gay. What is surprising is the number of programs pitched at teens where there are openly gay relationships e.g. Stranger things and Teen wolf and Euphoria.
I am amazed the GOP hasn't been targetting Hollywood in their current spate of witch hunts?
Well I guess I just don't get why characters' sexual orientations are such a big deal, if the orientation doesn't have anything to do with the plot. For example, I tried watching the show How to Get Away with Murder, and although I found the main murder plot interesting, the subplots, deal with things that do not have anything to do with the main murder plot.
One of the killers trying to get away with the crime is worried that her fiancee might be gay. But what does this have to do with the plot of her getting away with the crime? Absolutely nothing... and it was completely forgotten about by the next season, so why bother to introduce such a subplot anyway therefore?
Also, how could the GOP come after Hollywood since there is no laws against what movies they want to make in terms of things like that?
