Over New Years weekend I was watching tv and there were a lot of Paramount plus ads and one was for the Halo tv series. I bought a microsoft gaming laptop about a year ago and up until then I've only had playstations, so I never played Halo.

The trailer showed two women first and while I never played it, I would have to believe that it is a game that generally appeals to guys. I know in the grand scheme of things it isn't a big deal but this reeks of the whole "we need more women in..." mentality. I guess they will never understand that certain hobbies and genres will always appeal to more men than women and vice versa. You don't see publishers of romance novels saying they need more male representation.

Maybe I'm wrong, but considering the time we live in I would imagine it isn't worth watching. Shouldn't comic books have taught people a lesson? They hire women who hate comic books (when I'm sure there are plenty of women who would do a good job writing) and now look at comic books. DC is making everyone gay for whatever reason. But I hope for the sake of Halo fans that it is a good series.
