The biggest issue is ego. The first season of Peacemaker was good, and GotG was huge during the whole Marvel zeitgeist. It made Gunn think he could succeed with literally any character. But this is a milquetoast DC property. It was never going to do crazy money. No one asked for it. The last Supergirl movie bombed miserably in the 80s. Add the woke BS and alienating your core audience, and this is what you get. It could be a case study in what NOT to do.
Have to give Gunn credit at least this time for not putting his wife in this one. Though in truth, she would have made a much better older Supergirl.

I mean, they probably saw up close what they were working with, and decided the darker and fuzzier the main character appears, the better off they would be.

Honestly, it’s a major miracle she didn’t try to poison her two kids before Wade. She is no doubt a Munchausen Syndrome textbook case. Glad it wasn’t by proxy

Man, sounds pretty rough for you to have to deal with. Being forced to read yet another thread on it. If I were you, I'd just leave the board.

And yet, you feel compelled to reply to it, so that would likely make you even smaller, no?

Keep that in mind when choosing your viewing options this weekend.

Alcock has also addressed criticism surrounding her casting, saying she is largely unbothered by negative comments online, particularly those coming from anonymous or troll accounts.

She noted that many critics appear to be "burner accounts, or someone's name and then 'Dad of four, Christian," and said she does not place much weight on that kind of feedback.

Alcock added that she is comfortable with the reaction if it means "p-ssing the right kind of people off."

You guys realize that Evan is gonna get that girl pregnant next season, right?

Yeah, I can understand that. That's a little ridiculous.

I guess it debuted on AMC and now the first 2 seasons are on Amazon Instant. I took a strange path to get here: Watched Chernobyl and was impressed with Jared Harris, and I also enjoy the vibe of Widow's Bay. Anyone seen this? I've only watched the first 2 episodes of Season 1, but it seems to be very well done. There is a heavy sense of dread. So far, I highly recommend it.
