    Anyone? This is a paid piece from Variety, one of Penske Media Corp’s many media outlets

    It’s not even a blog post from a random individual expressing their potential genuine desire for the show. It’s bare naked public relations

      Is everyone in this comment section also a shill?

      Or is it more likely that art is subjective, and people have different opinions than you?

        We are talking about an article that is literally paid promotion

        This entire thread was created because Apple paid for the initial content lmao

        You can all go genuinely like the show as much as you want but none of you go around posting about it until Apple literally pays Variety to create the content for you to talk about

          I didn’t even know there was an article. Based on the title, I thought it was a discussion thread

            The discussion thread is the same headline as the article. This is really a great example of how the internet has become almost entirely sustained by reposting paid content without any commentary

              It’s a show that I enjoyed, and I see that headline, and I enter the discussion. I am not a shill. I’m certain most of the people here had a similar experience to what I just described.

                I only ever said the article was paid propaganda. Which it is.

                They literally paid to create discussion with the headlined premise. And it works perfectly.

                Not sure why yall thought I meant any of you personally. It takes less than a minute to see the article and verify it’s part of a paid media conglomerate
