Well that, and the genre was done to absolute death for decades. That's not to say that the various resurgences weren't pretty damn cool, like spaghetti westerns and some of the more modern ones from the 80's-90's.
But there's only so much variety and creativity you can ultimately carve out of such a genre. And many modern attempts have been remarkably retarded with their leftist-influenced takes.
Conversely, I wish there was a greater volume of quality films that take place closer to the colonial era, and the early U.S. I've seen at least a few over the years, but it's still remarkably sparse. Especially anytime past the 40's-60's.
There was an expectation of heroism, family values, and pro americana in the genre, and pedowood wanted to make movies and shows about suburbanites and degeneracy instead.
Those resurgences were as you say, attempts to alter the formula towards leftism once it had been long enough for the positive expectations to have waned.
Reality shows are... not exactly a good example, since they're more ingrained with a particular format or structure than a strict setting. As for why they're still so rampant, a lot of that can be attributed to low production costs and a particularly effective appeal to women.
They've essentially overtaken what used to be reserved for sitcoms and gameshows. Low cost and minimal effort to make, minimal conflict, low effort on plot (generally), sometimes episodic in nature (due to minimal plot), etc. A fair bit more braindead than some of the better sitcoms in the past though.
I wasn't talking about "reality show" as a genre. It's a medium.
I'm talking about the shows themselves, including game shows.
Survior had been on the air for 24 years. Amazing Race almost as long.
Game shows have had worse scandals than almost any industry and have a core set that have endured for nearly 30 years, and countless new versions and varients. Not a single one has failed and then had "genre fatigue" be blamed.
Because people don't get tired of what they enjoy. The "New shiny" phenomenon is one of distraction, not boredom. Producers and taste makers decide what get's made, not consumers. And if one of their ideas fails, well "genre fatigue" is a great unfalsifiable excuse.
Never mind that your version sucked ass because you're retarded. People don't hate star wars because sci fi is old. And they don't hate concord because FPSs are passe.
Is there Sports Fatigue? Romance Novel Fatigue? Skate Park Fatigue?
Of course not. The only things with "fatigue" are the ones where some worthless swill of humanity can blame their failure on it.
You really think that Marvel's decline is because people hate super heroes all of a sudden? Sure took a long time. A good 65 years. It's cause the movies are garbage. They were always garbage, but now they're even worse.
But you can't admit to making crap and shovelware. it has to be "Market conditions" and "shifts in taste" and "genre fatigue."
Eh, I dunno. Might just be me. I found a lot of them extremely repetitive. More-so before the 70's. Jeremiah Johnson is one I rather liked though. And Wyatt Earp, starring Kevin Costner.
Sometimes people like a little bit of extra spice to their entertainment every now and then. Leftists push the envelope to the extreme though.
I'd say that was true, excepting that multiple other genres have been done to death over the decades and still don't completely die out.
For a comparison, WW2 shooters were done to death in gaming over the 90s/00s to the point where Modern Warfare was able to basically shake the world up by not being so. But they never stopped being made after, they just weren't in vogue, and scarcely a decade later they were being made in earnest again.
While there are plenty reasons why they'd be less popular, their complete absence is notable, just the same as the ones missing from any pre-WW2 America in general. Likely because it would be impossible to make without either going into Wrong Think or changing history so hard to make it fit Leftie Sensibilities.
There was also the problem with WW2 multiplayer that as time went on, it became impermissible to portray the Nazi side as a fully playable, equivalent option.
I think it depends a lot on how much variety you can actually get out of a particular genre or setting. More-so when it comes to film and TV shows. When it comes to games you have a much wider range of options available since you're not just offering a linear story, but gameplay, combat, interaction, etc.
I do agree though, the complete absence is a little bit curious. Especially when it comes to games. Might be too much of a hard sell for publishers and developers to take their chances on.
I don't have a lot I can offer unfortunately. Because like I said, they're exceedingly uncommon, and not a lot are really something I can strongly recommend. And I'm sure you've already heard of the ones I can name. IE, The Patriot, Last of the Mohicans, and... that's all I can remember off the top of my head.
There was also a little bit of a semi-dramatized documentary on Daniel Boone from the History channel that was kind of interesting. I unfortunately don't know the name, it was part of a series covering him, Davy Crocket, and Louis and Clark.
Edit: Think I found it. Not sure why the video is so dim/dark though, especially since it's on the History channel's own YT channel.

And yet, people never actually tired of watching them, pedowood got tired of making them: https://infogalactic.com/info/Rural_purge

Genre fatigue does not exist and has never existed. The existence of any number of reality shows proves this.
Survivor being one example.
Things becoming corrupted by suits, rent seekers, and commies doesn't mean the things themselv3s were passe

I would be interested in your recommendations in that genre. Thanks.
