The cringe is real. Take a look yourself and tell me if this looks at all interesting to you. If we do get replies here, I'll give my take.

No calories, no caffeine and less than half the fizz. Tastes post-post-modern.

Identity politics seems to the only selling point here. Is the SJW Lesbian crowd really big enough to support a show? Not all lesbians are SJW. Also the whole theme of the commercial seems to be this.

Unwittingly, this commercial seems to be a pretty good metaphor for SJWs in general. They enter an established and popular area, proclaim it to be their creation and then ruin it.

You form a club to build a tree house. You enjoy the tree house but pretty soon someone else notices your tree house and assumes it must be pretty cool so they pester you into letting them join the club so they can enjoy the tree house even though they never put anything into building it. When you finally let them in they complain that the tree house is all wrong and it needs new curtains and a sofa and an extension and a sauna and soft pillows .... but they aren't going to pay for any of it and if you kick them out of the club they'll tell their police chief dad.

I think a lot of them aren't. They didn't join feminism in the 70s just so that a bunch of men could become lesbians in 2019.

As for the trailer ... the acting is a bit shit, the dialogue is a bit shit, but it's TV, so whatever. Just hope they were choosing trailer clips for expository purposes rather than picking highlights.

Wait. Are you saying there are CW dramas that do not make you cringe? The trailer looks pretty much exactly as I expected.

Honestly I have never seen a CW show or even tuned into the network. I don't even think my local Xfinity provider (aka Comcast) has it. I'll have to check next time I'm home to see if I even get it.
