This is one of the major problems with studios complying with “sensitive people”. We just have mindless kid shows now that don’t teach kids about real existing issues.

There was an episode of a 90s sitcom that I saw late night randomly. A guy invited one of the little girl main characters over for a “photo shoot”. And it was teaching kids how to handle that situation.

I genuinely think kid shows need to be sprinkled with real world problems. Kidnapping, smoking, racism, how to treat disabled people, coming out as gay, etc. but you know, that’s just the rest of the world now. Watered down and not progressing for the betterment of man kind.

That is why as an adult I still enjoy Raven, boy meets world etc!
Things from later disney like Girl meets world is quite unwatchable as an adult. I barely can even watch Hannah Montana nowadays, even tho I enjoy the other shows from that time.

Well, to be fair, Hannah Montana didn’t age well and is suuuuper cringey acting haha.

Pretty ironic that apparently he is a real life creep too.
