I feel like people are so used to the idea of cop shows a fire show - like London's Burning - would be kinda boring as a comedy.

It's such a weird situation for the next season. If they don't address it in the show it will feel tone-deaf, but if they do address it then it comes with a lot of risk given they all play cops.

Things can sometimes take a life of their own and go in questionable directions. Have you ever noticed that? "All Lives Matter" should be a cool and good thing to say, but, it's obviously poison at this point in time. Terry's heart is in the right place and that's what is most important to me since I'm a weirdo who values intent.

Except All Lives Matter isn't an organic thing, it originated as a bad faith argument to delegitimize BLM. The argument that people who have been regularly abused/murdered should show restraint lest things get out of hand is literally the same thing. Show me any evidence that there's a movement with BLM saying that black folks should get to hold the switch for a bit. fancy stats fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Jun 30, 2020 |

Not what I (or Terry) was saying at all. I can't force anyone to understand, I guess. Just in case people want to misunderstand me some more, Black Lives Matter, Defund/Abolish The Police, and I will fight you if you imply otherwise. Namaste.

fancy stats posted:What is the motivation/intent behind asking people not to turn #blacklivesmatter into #blacklivesbetter? I take him at his word that he sincerely believes that there's some kind of fear of the BLM cause becoming too radicalized and lose sight of its goals or lose allies or something. I don't think that problem largely exists, although its certainly possible Crews has encountered some assholes on Twitter who might have encouraged this fear. I absolutely agree Crews is wrong and just tilting at windmills. I just don't think there's some deeper thing there. He's a well meaning guy who is half a moron. And like, he's apparently gonna keep doing this and saying dumb rear end stuff in the name of trying to say the right thing.

So the most generous possible reading has him providing fodder for the shittiest people to point at and suggest that BLM has violent ulterior motives because he's a dumbass.

I'm glad to hear that B99 is going to take current events into account while developing the next season, and they're going so far as to scrap what they had before. But it makes me wonder... what will become of Chicago PD? That show, since day one, has thrived on rough cops bending and breaking the rules to get the job done. They do exactly the kinds of things that people are up in arms about. It's the show's whole brand, except that they're doing it for the forces of good. This is the same show that, not long after premiering, had to deal with the real-life Homan Square, an actual black site managed by Chicago Police and rife with abuse and civil rights violations. I don't think they can ignore the current unrest like they did with Homan Square.

Chicago PD's audience is much more conservative than B99's. They'll probably show the cops being even "tougher," and maybe even have some kind of story arc where the boys in blue have to stomp evil protesters.

Quebec's a lot whiter than NYC but Montreal sure as gently caress isn't, so the cast being so white is pretty disappointing. Also this is really not a great time to adapt this show. E: To be clear, adapting tv shows for foreign audiences is cool and I wish more places did it instead of just subtitling the show on Netflix. And Patrick Huard is a perfect choice for this since he's directed and written a bunch of action/crime/comedy stuff before. But they ain't need to be so white.
