I think I've said it here before but I know I've said it elsewhere.
The main part of the problem with GB 2016 was the fact that instead of continuing on with a story line that had already had fans the producers decided to piss on a beloved original and treated it like it never existed and that alone instantly turned off fans of the original. Combine that with unlikable main characters, piss poor acting, flat humor, and god awful writing and you have a perfect recipe for a major flop. Then to top it off they publicly labeled anyone not loving it a racist sexist pig.
Now if they had decided instead of trashing the original do something like make the girls the daughters of the original crew then I think most fans of the original would have at least given it a chance. But nope.
Any of this sound familiar?
