Yea it’s different agents but same thing with endless reboots. This guy could’ve bucked the trend of endless reboots and remakes and could’ve done an original show inspired by x files like how X files is inspired partly by Kolchak. I have no doubt the usual current things will be in the show
Right, because he makes his own decisions? (((Disney))) decided to reboot the series after buying Fox, and they hired anti-White director Coongler to head the project knowing exactly what he'd do with it, which is exactly what Disney wants.
Like Jordan Peele, Coongler's only "creative" thought is "make it black."
I was engaging in wishful thinking. You are right with the Jordan Peele comparison. I remember hearing rave reviews for Get Out and I saw it when it came to television and was confused because it was just the same “white man bad” or race narrative we’ve been hearing. He gets treated like Hitchcock. At some point the “diverse reboot” trend has to run its course
Indeed.
(((CBS))) gave him the reboot of "The Twilight Zone" back in 2019, which went NOWHERE because "make it black."
Yea I didn’t even bother watching it. I love the original and the 80s revival. Even like the early 00s version. I knew what to expect with his version plus I don’t really watch much that came out after 2014
