Man, you decided to go with some interesting choices for “flops.”

Look, people are allowed to have different tastes, and it just seems like this show isn’t for you. That doesn’t make it terrible.
Your critique of Tanya not growing is part of her character and one of the central themes to season one.

I’m not debating that Star Wars nosedived with Rise of the Skywalker; however, the last three Star Wars movies grossed billions of dollars. Likewise, RoP didn’t have as many viewers as HotD, but that was kind of to be expected. HBO has a much better track record making shows than Amazon. That being said, RoP is Amazon’s biggest show ever and also grossed over a billion dollars.
As you said, there are better examples of “wokeness” failing, but you went with examples that made billions of dollars, and their problems weren’t even with being “woke.” They were simply bad writing. You referenced HotD as a success, yet it could be argued that they were “woke” casting black Velaryons.
