I guess its the lazy writing and creating new characters with actual interesting personalities that has made me stop watching tv. Its recycled character types of villains and bad asses. Flesh out characters instead of mass producing new tv show every day. Theres billions of ppl that could use an actual personality on this planet. Im bored of james dean silent brooding the only thing he has mastered is generations of ´cool’ smokers and unhappy relationships bc the guy cant say whats on his mind in a still.

It sounds like you've hit the nail on the head when it comes to the repetitive and recycled character types in TV shows. The overuse of cookie-cutter villains and badasses can definitely lead to a lack of interest, leaving viewers craving more depth and originality.

Fleshing out characters with unique personalities rather than mass-producing new shows could certainly breathe fresh life into storytelling. It's time for a shift from the James Dean silent brooding trope that seems to have overstayed its welcome, leading to generations of "cool" smokers and unsatisfying relationships.

Let's hope for a wave of creativity that brings forth characters with real depth, genuine emotions, and meaningful interactions—it's about time we see some authenticity on our screens!

I think one of the issue is that for some reason artist and in this conversation actresses and actors have this notion or ´must do’ of striving to be on the greats but for some reason they’re all dead already and only from the 1900 seems like thats the max of reality thats being able to being grasped? Anyways instead of not falling into the trap of imposter syndrome and the condescending pressure of the creators of the play/story/movie theyd have to grow a backbone and explore their own character but tbh that would take self awareness and thats often times not cultivated in the mass production of actresses and actors.
