I watched the debut of this bullshit high as a kite and at the time I thought it was brilliant
A couple of days later I rewatched it sober and realized it was a huge piece of shit
Never went back to it

What a shocker that it's not Watchmen, but actually a half-assed soft reboot that steals the same story beats and themes but injected with a new cast of strong, diverse characters nobody can even remember, and Tobias cosplaying as Doctor Manhattan.

I remember it having some cool ideas but It needed another writer or something to polish it off. Such a shame because "The Leftovers" was by the same guy and is pure kino.

Had it just been about the concept of the masked cops the show might've actually been genuinely great. Everything related to Watchmen in it is completely pointless and makes zero sense even in the context of the story.

>The series, promoted by HBO as an ongoing drama series, premiered on October 20, 2019, before concluding its nine-episode run on December 15. Lindelof left his role as showrunner after the first season, stating that he had completed his intended story. HBO subsequently confirmed there are no further plans for the show to continue without Lindelof returning in some capacity, and reclassified the work as a limited series with possible future installments.

The tv show is actually more sympathetic to chuds than the book. In the show, after the squid-attack, Ozymandias installs a leftie anti-cop puppet government which brings about the woke era a decade earlier than in reality and pays reparations to victims of white supremacist violence. The only people who rebel are white supremacists who know the truth about the squid and emulate Rorschach. In the meantime, the even more megalomaniacal eco-leftie daughter of Ozy wants to steal Dr. Manhattan's powers to become a Greta Thunberg god-queen of earth. , and used the squidpilled racists as a smoke screen, hence employing a race-war narrative to distract people from the real problem. In the book on the other hand, Ozy is an aryan Ubermensch who identifies with Alexander the Great, arguably the first great Western oppressor of PoC people (Egypt, Israel, India etc).

For me the show panders too much to the right-wing. Episode 5 was as far-right as tv gets these days - begins with lefty youth being depicted as sadistic bullies who are unable to take seriously the apocalyptic threats put forward by a Christian and immediately paying for it by being dying in an apocalyptic event directly related to that threat. Later in the episode it is established that this event serves a role akin to the Holocaust in the cultural consciousness of the Watchmen world, as Steven Spielberg made a Schindler's list style movie about the squid rather than the Holocaust. At the end, it turns out that the government is lying about this event and that the only people aware of the truth are nazi terrorists. Wtf Lindeloff

It's hilarious how as the series was coming out Alan Moore communists were sucking its dick hard for not being the Snyder movie only of the show to completely fall apart by the end

yes yes it's clear the source material was hopelessly obsessed with american negro politics and negroes in general and negro crying and whining

the reason it was so good is because it made that its theme. it was original and well done.

This is also to say nothing of the fact that the Jew conception of "race relations" in the US is predicated on nothing but fucking made-up bullshit anyway, retard. It was fucking absolute trash.

yes, the theme of the superhero having its roots in hooded vigilantism and supremacist delusions, where the mask conceals not just identity, but a hunger for control born of fear and dominance, was very present in the source material.

right and this has something to do with negroes everything is about negroes and also those antifa queers aren't subject to that same interpretation either at all no

The fucking source material was about the nature of heroism and moral calculus, you fucking moron. It has nothing to do with contemporary Jewish delusions about negroes.

This. It has a good set up, but doesnโ€™t commit to its own ideas, and instead quickly pivots to โ€œremember le manhattan?โ€. Everything related to involving the old characters directly in the story was complete nonsense and had to have been a production concession, because you can tell how obviously out of place it all is and how so many things (the slippery man) end up just being loose ends or red herrings. Iโ€™ve never seen a show waste its potential this bad.
