Also doesn't make any sense in the context of Grease...
Like, fuck, why not take an original IP, and set it in the 1950s if you really must...
Oh wait, we know exactly why.
But the Pink Ladies, I mean, it just... Only in "topsy turvy current year" could they become the near exact opposite of everything they were in both Grease movies (and the stage musical which came first)...
And I noticed at least 2 of the main characters are Asian chicks… with NO Asian accents… in 1954, during the Asian Exclusion Era when Asians were basically barred from immigrating to America.
How the fuck can anyone suspend disbelief that this is really 1954 America? Why not just have them using cellphones at this fucking point?
But of course, I’m sure the show is still somehow paradoxically still rife with examples of “racism” and how racist the 1950s were. Fucking insane...
And how did I just KNOW that the one tomboy-looking chick in this show would be a “they/them/he” (basically every pronoun except “she”, which is her REAL gender) in real life… this Instagram profile is just too funny:
“Not a girl… just play one on TV”… like are you that dense, bitch?? Why the fuck do you think they would be hiring you to play a girl if you weren’t one?
Bigots have got chills and they’re multiplying after Grease prequel series Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies dared to have a diverse cast, sparking outrage from right-wingers and news outlets.
"We dare to ruin the integrity of our projects!" screamed the people incapable of competent writing or directing.
I feel like nobody even knew this was coming out. I’d never heard of it and I have Paramount+, usually streaming services throw their new shows at you as a suggestion when you log in. I’m sure like six people are upset about this though, giving the outlet an excuse to write this masturbatory article. This particular article or one that expresses the BIGOTS SEETHING SBOUT OUR AMAZING DIVERSE SHOW sentiment was obviously part of the marketing plan, it always is these days with the woke palette swaps the entertainment industry throws up.
Woke Leftists: The 1950s sucked and there was too much white male Christian heteronormativity and LGBT was suppressed
Also Woke Leftists: We’re making something “set in the 1950s” that looks like it was set in 2023 San Francisco.

Eugh.

Because it's about the demoralization, I think...
They want to ruin the memory of Grease, for everyone. That may indeed be the point.
So they can claim it is "authentic to the spirit of the original", while it isn't. In any way...
That is a great question and I'm going to start asking it every time they claim to be blackwashing something for "modern audiences".
The “Latinx” and capitalizing Black but not white is just the epitome of woke screed bullshit.
Latinx is a slur. It is not adopted by hispanics outside of woke american colleges. Might as well call the blacks "niggas"
LaTINKS.
It will always be LaTINKS.
As someone who speaks a bit of Spanish, it really is hilarious that they keep pushing that...

“Not a girl, just play one”
LOL but if there was a non-binary or trans character played by someone who wasn’t the thing, they’d be enraged
I looked up her photos from the shitty series…
Ah yes, “not a girl”…
Much like the freak from GOT: HOTD…
Unintentionally hilarious though, I would add. 🤷🏻♂️

I saw a commercial for that and it screamed “this is terrible”
