Hollywood is figuring out who their audience is at least on the TV side I heard people saying good things about “Supergirl” I’ve never known who the Supergirl character is or where she came from and I was curious as to what angle they were working from that impressed so many people and critics, so I took a look at the show. A half hour in I had the sense that the show is a soap opera like the ones that I saw back in 1967 while waiting for Dark Shadows to come on. My second impression was that it was aimed specifically at women and minorities. I considered how small the TV audience is these days and who is watching. Movies may be headed down the same road. Supergirl wasn’t bad per se but the people who create it don’t weren’t thinking of me.
So who is the audience for DeadPool? Spent about $20 for ticket and popcorn...what a waste of money. There was a pub next door, good beer and FREE peanuts. From now on I’ll make better choices. Hollywood obviously doesn’t know much about me.
