As awful and dreadful as Hollywood is, they sink to the bottom when they remake old shows or try to re-enact previous historic time periods; especially when some of us were there and coming of age. I expected that movie to have six times the normal woke garbage.
It isn’t new. In the actual year 1984, NBC made a show called “Family Ties” that featured a young protagonist who was supposedly a conservative. So he worshipped Richard Nixon, and never mentioned President Reagan, the immensely popular archetype of real conservatism. The Gipper was going to win 49 states that year. Bottom line is Hollywood just plain sucks.
What? He mentioned Reagan all the time and had a picture of him. Clear those cobwebs.
