I fully expect everything to be race/gender swapped or injecting lgbt where it wasn’t before. They have no creativity and the weirdos on Twitter get angry when you notice
They gotta run outta gas eventually. No one wants this, no one watches it, it doesn't make money.
Remind me - you're black, right? And you don't even want this garbage. I bet it feels awful knowing that media producers have so little confidence in the success of black or female characters that they have to race or genderswap already existing and popular ones instead of creating something new.
Yea I’m black, and honestly so tired of this. On top of that so many shows with blacks now will push one of the usual fake race narratives and critics overhype anything with a black person despite how bad it is. This is why I feel bad for a black or female writer who just wants to tell a good story. So many have been turned off. And a white make trying to get into the business now will have to bend the knee or go indie.
My parents always roll their eyes and turn alway from the shows that peddle the racism is everywhere message. So weird because I grew up in 80s and 90s and a lot of my white friends loved shows like Family Matters, Fresh Prince, or Martin and I remember as a kid Eddie Murphy was a huge star. Plus I enjoyed and still enjoy plenty of mostly or all white shows. Today Leave it to Beaver has become one of my favorite shows now because it’s so nice seeing a traditional nuclear family. I watched reruns as a kid with older relatives but I really appreciate it a lot more now
It's weird watching movies and shows from the 60s and 70s that acknowledge racism and just brush it off like it's just one of those things we have to deal with, rather than OMG HE'S A RACIST YOU GOTTA DO BETTER WHITE MAN
We've regressed.
Add to that the refusal to acknowledge a lot of progress was made.
Absolutely.
I grew up watching Will Smith, Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, Chris Tucker, Bill Cosby, Keenan and Kel, the list goes on. Never thought anything of it. At the risk of sounding like a boomer, I really didn't notice their race. When I watched Rush Hour I wasn't focusing on the fact that neither protagonist was white, because I didn't care, because it was a good movie that utilized their differences well.
But be honest. If a movie with an Asian/black duo came out today, what would your first thought be? If you said "I bet this is going to be woke race-baiting trash", you're far from alone. Which is a real shame. Rush Hour is one of my favorite movies, but today I'd never even give it a chance, and for good reason. Fool me once, and all that.
Same. I have a general rule not to watch anything made after 2014 with a few exceptions like Yellowstone. But yea if I see a black les show my first thought is that it will be a race thing. Denzel Washington is an exception since he is one of my favorites but for me to watch a show like that I’d have to get a recommendation from someone I trust.
Rush Hour was hilarious
And of course, no dog. Might anger the moo-slimes, or perhaps zhinnie the poophead.
True. Although in previous versions she was into Shaggy. But I think people just get tired of the need to inject it in everything where it wasn’t before. They could’ve done as well an adult themed cartoon that was an obvious parody
What'll this mean for Shaggy's relationship with Scooby? Dogs hate black people.
Oh no problem there. Scooby is a pitbull now.
Daphne looks Asian too?
And Fred looks like a big doofus.
I'm so tired of this shit.
They're gonna portrait a black man as a cowardly druggy? I fucking doubt it.
This Norville is gonna be a proper spoken voice of reason of the group and judging by the expression on Fred's face he's gonna have to pull double duty on being the dunce of the crew now.
Retards making retard changes on a retard show only retards would watch. Can't wait to see the review censorship.
They’re so predictable aren’t they… as if everyone can’t already see it coming that the only White male (and only White person, period) remaining in the blackwashed main cast is gonna be the dumb/stupid/idiot/pussy/racist/ignorant character and the original negative stereotype characteristics of the White-turned-POC characters will be erased because POC can do no wrong.
I don't even care about Scooby Doo but this shit has got to end. I pray for someone to design a rogue AI that whitewashes black actors.
They made Daphne Asian, and Velma Indian.
Morville? And Scooby Doo without Scooby? Fuck me. And it's ugly. So, so ugly.
The show runner, this Mandy woman from the Office (who is also voicing Velma) has created around 4 shows so far. None have survived. They keep allowing her to create because she ticks the right boxes on the ESG sheet. They're marching this show out to die and they know it.
We'll see the usual suggested articles about how great it is, then how evil incels and racists are rejecting it, then how its low ratings are the fault of a toxic audience, then it will disappear like a fart in a hurricane.
It proves that, unbelievably, they do care more about brainwashing and propagandizing than they do about profits. It’s the only thing they will put above profits.
Shaggy > Black
Velma > Brown
Daphne > Yellow
Mystery Machine > Diversity Wagon
