nope, not for you. You're far too invested in the fact that women were doing dishes and men dominating the world in the 50s, which will not change in the show because the reality was being portrayed as it was, not as you wish it would have been. So, nope, maybe A League of Their Own is the show for ya

I watched season one and a bit of season two. I stopped because I found it pretty ridiculous that there was a serial killer about and the solution to stop him serial killing was for the high school football team to remove their shirts, put on masks, and record a video threatening the killer.

I’m very surprised to hear it got even more ridiculous than that

love how socially relevant discourse in these shows is manifactured by creating an absolutely idiotic sci fi premise that will never happen, kinda killing the believability of the discourse altogether

My favourite memory from Riverdale (while watching with the wife before we quit) was when Archie got his football bros to all strip their shirts off and put on these red masks to intimidate a serial killer on camera. I don’t know what they intended the threat to be, but it definitely looked like sexual assault
