Msdistress here:

"If we get to cherry pick shows you can get any numbers you want.YYou're being disingenuous (in other words, you're argumentddoesn't hold up to scrutiny.)"

I chose Hannibal and Sleepy Hollow because a) they are social media darlings with a large fanbase (just like TW), and b) because they are considered progressive when it comes to matters of depicting sexual orientation, race and gender on the show. I'm not claiming that the rest of the media lives up to Hannibal (and Sleepy Hollow has its own problems when it comes to representation of native americans on the show), no matter how much I wish it did!

However, it was you who said, and I quote:

"You are, however, misplacing your ire onto a show that is far more diverse and positive in its representations of all sexual orientations and races than just about anything on television."

It is you who is being disingenous and whose argument doesn't hold up to scrutiny. You claim that TW is progressive when it comes to depicting POCs (and I'm assuming also other minorities). You ignored my statistics about female and POC representation on TW simply because it contradicted your argument of TW being progressive. Nobody's denying that TW does a great job at depicting gay male characters. People are upset with the show because while it claims it's free of homophobia, sexism and racism, the latter two are clearly present in the narrative, and when pointed out these facts, Jeff Davis goes "Lalalalala! I can't hear you! Stop hating!".

You can check my statistics as much as you like. Claiming that I TW is progressive does not make it so. Numbers do not lie. Women and POCs ARE UNDERREPRESENTED on the show.

Instead of accusing of the critics being sheeple, maybe you should look into the mirror to see if there is any fleece in sight.
