Forced diversity comes to crap on another great TV series

In the US today, white people under the age of 18 are already a minority.

And why don't you find a real problem to complain about?

what about fez in the original series?

must you idiots complain about wokeness in everything before you even see it? and did it ever occur to you that you see it in everything because YOU'RE obsessed?

Fez was one of the best characters in the original show. His presence felt natural. The producers didn't shoehorn him in for the sake of it. Look at the scene set in The Hub in the trailer for That '90s Show. Five out of the seven characters (Ozzie, Gwen, Nikki and the two extras) in that shot seem to be ethnic. It's not realistic for a smallish town in Wisconsin in the 1990s. It's just pandering at this point.

It seems Bonnie and Terry Turner want to appease people who probably won't even watch the new show. Then again, this is a Netflix production. They treat a vapid bore like Meghan Markle like she's the second coming. At least the show gives people like you another opportunity to feel morally superior, eh?

Hey one kid explicitly known as a foreign exchange student is the exact same thing as over half the gang now being nonwhite!

Do yo listen to yourself talk or do you just babble without thinking?

We complain about "wokeness" in everything because it's being applied to everything. Idiots like you are cheering on a blatant attack on white people and it needs to stop.

This must be one of the most idiotic arguments I’ve ever seen. Netflix Korean shows have 100% Koreans. You will not see 50% black Koreans and 50% lgbt Koreans. So the argument that NF makes movies for a diverse audience is quite … moronic.
Turk movies? Same. 100% Turks. And so forth. Only “white” movies have the “require” diversity hires …

There was a comedy, The Trip, Norway, that was making fun of it, when they were making the movie of the story and the American version was with the mandatory black husband, as a mockery of the woke culture …

Honestly wish them luck because even with a strong cast, That 80's Show bombed.

Original was cut some slack because networks were shifting to reality TV and unwilling to try out new sitcoms. The Simpsons should have been put down decades ago, but networks held on to it because of this dynamic. Also explains Chuck Lorre's string of success. Or the ongoing mockumentary trend.

I'll give it shot for a couple episodes.

I have no problem with diversity but the young actors in this are just bad, they don't have the chemistry that the 70's show cast had. Too bad because I actually really liked all the cameos, but that's a problem when this show is supposed to be about the kids. After two episodes I am done with this show.

I agree, we've had diversity for decades, which has been successful because the talent was awesome. Today, the talent IS NOT awesome.

I can keep up with the times. And I can also voice my disgust at it. Racism against white people will not be tolerated. The specific ethnic replacement of white people in film won't happen without people calling it out for what it is.

Have you ever watched any movies past 1925?

My god that was the dumbest statement you've made in a long time, "....black people only playing servant or blackface."

A black person isn't capable of doing blackface, you do understand what blackface is don't you? It isn't a black actor it is a white actor that blackens their face as in Al Jolson who pretty much set the standard for blackface long long ago.

Future generation will laugh at the diversity bullshit that destroyed movie studios that were too stupid to understand that they were in the business of making money and not making liberal idiots happy. It really doesn't matter if the majority of the US population is white, black, yellow, red or whatever color you choose... what matter is who makes up the majority of the people that go to movies, they are the ones that matter not the penniless liberals delivering pizza just to pay the rent. And given the poor performance of the movies catering to those pizza driving libtards, the vast majority of movie goers don't want woke shit.

> Get those colored people off the set and back on to the cotton plantations and orange groves where they belong.

Hollywood is ethnically replacing white people in roles, instead of starting original shows with non white people. It's blatant racism against white people and not pro people of color to be doing things this way. I would ignore it if it weren't everywhere.

Growing up just about every TV show I watched was black, about every CD I owned was black, I watched a whole lot of black movies so I'm not exactly sure where you Liberals get this idea that it was only white males on screen until like 5 years ago other that to assume you are just all a bunch of Nazi agitators.

Why would anyone want the "colored people back on the plantations"? Mexican's do a much better job and don't bitch nearly as much as blacks.

I'm sure the OP doesn't want to get lumped in with Hispanics though.

The other little fact the black folks tend to ignore is that their percentage of the population is dropping and has been since it peaked around 1760... At the current rate of decline it won't be long until they are just a footnote in the "other" category. And irony is that it isn't the republicans that are pushing them to oblivion, it is the democrats... Open border increase the population and very few crossing the southern border are black, so that drops them... then their is the abortions which by and large result in more black babies being aborted than any other race... All these things brought to you by the democrats... Now if someone could explain how it is the most black vote democrat I would love to know.

To the people who post about whites not being a majority anymore..they are..there's still about 50% whites ages 0-17, with Hispanics being a little over 25%. The rest not statistically relevant.

I think it's just the current fantasy of blacks/browns that white people will gradually disappear from all the countries they founded and built, so the righteous non-whites can take over and live in peace and harmony (in reality they'd all just fight each other with no whites around).

Says more about their insecurity than anything else.

Anytime they pipe up about needing forced diversity, remember to remind them who it is that creates these shows, and damn near everything else in film and tv.
