As the era of wokeness approaches its end, television shows that prioritize social issues over comedy or drama are also facing termination. ABC has declared the first casualty of this shift to be the epitome of wokeness: “The Conners.”
ABC Program Director Joe Barron stated, “We need to cancel it preemptively before potential boycotts emerge. Once Kid Rock gets involved, it’s essentially game over.”
The woke movement, initially a counter-response to the Tea Party, is criticized for embodying societal issues, and there is a growing weariness among the audience.
“Not everyone feels this way,” noted Tara Newhole. “We’ve observed that the ‘anti-woke’ demographic tends to be characterized by individuals with simplistic thinking. Those who view empathy and concern for others as negatives are usually older individuals with limited cognitive abilities.”
“The Conners” addresses topics such as LGBTQ issues, mental health, substance abuse, and navigating challenging family dynamics. The show boasts a diverse and talented cast. In essence, it diverges from the simplistic, easy-to-watch style of shows like “Charles in Charge,” which appears to be the preference of certain viewers seeking uncomplicated entertainment featuring actors with controversial histories.
In conclusion, farewell to “The Conners,” and God Bless America.
