Well that’s all they care about. Kenobi should’ve been a slam dunk hit show but Disney can’t have a show with a male lead. I heard that Leia was in it for some reason and I assume the black female had a prominent role. With good writing you could’ve done a great character study examining the friendship and tragedy of Obi Wan and Anakin or loosely adapt the legends book Kenobi where he is watching Luke from afar but gets caught up with a skirmish between farmers and Tusken Raiders.
Nerdrotic said that there must be a rule now where any male lead must be surrounded by much more capable females.
There 100% is a written style guide for modern Disney productions. There’s no way all of these properties are hewing so close to these radfem standards without an actual written guide. The bait and switch is simply too prominent.
