I have wondered if it's a problem with the media being overly saturated. I think it's also because there's probably only so many stories we can realistically tell. I feel like it's probably very difficult these days to create anything that is totally new and something that hasn't been done in some capacity before, which is really sad but I guess it's inevitable when the media has become so saturated.

I'd also guess that's why "reality TV" has supplanted fictional shows as the main source of entertainment TV. It's less work to do when you can just record some crazy extroverts doing wild **** instead of having to write something imaginative.

WTF are you on? The new She-Ra doesn't look anything like a female. Take out the long hair and and the shorts and you're literally left with a teen boy. There's nothing sexist about pointing out the obvious. If anything, saying female characters are only relatable the more masculine they are is sexist.

It's just like when they made Captain Marvel look like an androgynous she-male in the comics (Carl Manvers) to be more "PC":

It flopped and was cancelled along with a bunch of other Marvel comics where longstanding iconic characters were replaced with gay or women versions of said characters (they literally turned Iceman gay for the sake of "muh diversutay!"). Also the game Hyper Universe was a massive flop when it got de-sexualized (read: censored) to appeal to non-gamer SJWs:

Same thing will happen with this. Get woke, go broke.

She-Re (reboot, not the 37 year old looking catfish as a 17 year old) Reboot out in just 2 months and I cannot wait to watch! hope Mattel makes figures/vinyls for the new series.
