These guys are almost never right. So Teela has a stronger role. Big whoop. She’s not there to just be something for 12 year old boys to stare at while they have the funny feeling like when they climb the rope in gym class.
Here’s a video of original voice actor Alan Oppenheimer (Skeletor, Mer-Man, Man-At-Arms, Cringer/Battle Cat, Roboto) talking about how men in their 40s tell him how the characters in show were friends, mentors and even father figures to the first generation of latchkey kids, and how it even saved a life.
The 2002 remake had Teela as something other than a doormat and the whiners didn’t say anything then. If Alien were released for the first time today, the unfuckables would be complaining about Ellen Ripley being the sole human survivor. This level of whining about women who are more than mere sex objects is a NEW THING to fandom, and it’s centered around a level of entitlement usually reserved for spoiled rich kids and Karens.
I’ve heard the “Alien” comment IRL from friends and I think the latest Terminator film pretty much puts that to rest, didn’t see many people credibly complain about how all the good roles were women.
I thought it was good overall. It started kinda corny and then went off into ‘left field’ but without seeing the 2nd half of the season I’m not sure if I can judge it properly.
That being said I will admit I’m not sure who this is aimed at as some of it is really dark and adult, and other parts are very kiddy. So it’s a bit all over the place for me.
Critical Drinker’s review was spot on; definitely have no interest in this “revival”.
1 – yikes, that guy is toxic, but 2 – yikes if he’s right

Like the original was anything more than a toy commercial.

If I buy a dozen of your strawmen, do I get one for free?
