My rule of thumb (I know I’ve mentioned this before so apologies if you’ve seen it already) is that I don’t watch anything made after 2014 unless someone I trust recommends it. Definitely true for anything with a black lead or cast. I will still watch reruns of Jeffersons, Sanford and Son, Family Matters, etc. Heck, most of what I watch is old tv shows and one of my favorite shows as I’ve gotten older is Leave it to Beaver.
I made that point in my earlier post because I’ve seen young white and black leftists stupidly say “white people wont watch something with a black lead”. I remember I pointed out to one guy that Cosby Show was one of if not the most popular shows of the 80s and that wouldn’t have been possible without a lot of white fans. He just said they weren’t really black.
Sadly I don’t blame someone who sees a modern day black show or film and passes. I’m the same way unless someone recommends it. I’m the same way with a female led show or movie. But 2014 and prior I’ll check it out
