This Is A Program I Won't Be Watching

I'm roughly familiar with the orphan adopted by rich folk plot, but I'm not really familiar with the character of "Annie." I don't know if she is a plucky wise-guy, a victim who perseveres, or a schemer.

If the main character is played by a black actress, I don't really have a problem with that. If the whole cast is black, then I would take that for a production aimed primarily at a black audience, and I still have no problem with that.

If it is mainly black, but a few white villains, I would find that mildly annoying. I wouldn't take my kids to see it. I would guess that a concerned black parent wouldn't take their kids to see a show in which the few black characters are buffoons and villains.

When Batman and Robin came out in1997, I thought, 'how did they not cast Will Smith as Robin?'

All three
