Its the most WOKE show I have seen...

But I have enjoyed it.

Episode 12 might be the most woke of them all.

Anybody else seen all 12 episodes?

I have watched them all except the most recent one. It's not a bad show. My kid likes it and we watch together, if not for that I might have bailed.

I like it. Thought the episode with the nuclear reactor (episode 11?) was very good.

Did you ever watch the original?

The show has always been progressive toward social issues, often presenting them in a matter-of-fact way.

I watched the first 11 episodes and enjoyed them. I read the episode review for the 12th last night and was skeptical, but I decided to go ahead and watch it today.

I could nit pick the story/dialog/directing to death, but in the end it’s just someone using the entertainment medium to express a point of view. I can appreciate that this dealt with the controversial issue from the perspective of an individual - as people tend to become extreme when dealing in generalizations.

While I also know that the story was written with a progressive “slant”, I thought they did at least show with the scene in the principals office that the other girls mother was genuinely concerned about fairness for her child.

I saw this thread prior to watching 12 and was like "nah"...but holy shite!

I think the show in general has actually been a good bit less woke than I expected. It's like the most woke thing is there is literally no straight white male on the show. That doesn't really bother me. The core cast of the old show was basically ONLY straight white males, so who cares?

This trans episode was a little too ham-fisted for me, though. Although what is the twist at the end?

I wish they would just get on with the Al's grand-daughter plot.

Also, I've seen every ep of the original multiple times, so I know exactly how QL works. But one complaint/observation of mine is I really think I might be confused if I had never seen the original. It seems like they really gloss over the details of how leaps work and ziggy and all that.

Im confused about what happened to the waiting room. In the original, Sam and the person he leaped into would change bodies. The HQ could interview the individual and get clues to the mission. I know they updated the tech, but why would you get rid of that? At least explain the inconsistency

No Scott Bakula no care

Wish they would've just brought him back for a season.

Watched a couple episodes and couldn't get past the clown in makeup as a main character. And it just wasn't that good. Nostalgia probably says Bakula or bust for me
