Don't hope for course correction. These corporations will have to encounter a very hard reset before they get back to storytelling.
No wonder they are salty about the Reeves KS:
Berserk, Babylon 5, Star Gate, OG Star Trek and more have done better than current year as far as hitting that "representation card" because they cared more about story even back in the 80s and before. Now its just endless cardboard cutouts of TDS and Current Year Check Marks the Spot. I know one thing for sure: 10 more years from now people will still remember Casca and Doctor Stephen Franklin alongside Teal'c. Will anyone remember any of these quota characters?
Even Dark Angel still sticks with me. Because it cared about telling a story with characters rather than: Oh that one is the cripple in the wheelchair ect. Elisa from Gargoyles. Here's the rest of my semi constructive Rant.
