I haven’t seen the show yet so I can’t speak to whether it’s good or not, but I do know some statistics about movie reviewers.

Something like 70% of reviewers/critics are male and they account for 75% of all reviews. 73% of male critics are white.

Of the remaining 30% of female critics, 70% are white.

When reviewing movies with a male protagonist, female critics, give average ratings of 73% while male critics award the same movies an average of 70%.

On movies with a female protagonist, female critics give an average rating of 74% versus male critics who rate these movies with an average of 62%.

The gaps are just as bad when it comes to race.

TLDR- White men make up 70% of reviews and rate movies with female leads significantly worse than female reviewers.

If you want to learn more, here are some great resources with a variety of research on equality in media.

Hank hasn’t had enough treats today.

I cancelled the moment they put ads in the plan I had been paying for. Don’t miss it for a second. Not even prime shipping.

As someone who has red hair:

sigh We will get vomiting dogs before I can modify a woman to have red hair.

Oh this is awesome. Thanks for that. I’m excited to dig in and try it.

I will! Thanks for the info!

It didn’t occur to me that I could just replace the thermal paste in the original switch. I have everything I’d need to do that already but I just didn’t think about.

I’m always annoyed at how it performs when I’m playing Stardew Valley, of all things.
