About 10 or 15 years ago, there was a show called The 4400 on USA network (back when USA actually had its own programming). My wife and I watched it, as initially, it was a pretty good sci-fi show.
Last weekend, I was perusing the channel guide on the Tivo for something new on my OTA channels. I found "4400" on the CW. Yeah, I know, not the best place to find programming for an old geezer like me. Anyway, it was a premiere and the description sounded like the original somewhat. So, I recorded it. We watched it last night.
I checked the credits at the end to see if it was a joint NAACP/BLM production. So far, all the prominent characters are black and not to worry, some of them are indeed gay. And yes, we already have white security people mistreating the prominent black characters. It can only get "better" from here. I guess at some point they will introduce some Hispanic characters so that they can be mistreated also. Since most of these people are from the past, I'm sure we'll get lessons on previous transgressions. It is a woke wet dream.
Cheers
