What you said seems painfully obvious to me— I understand why it seems problematic, it tends to always involve women, but as you mention it’s due to the fact these stories are written through a male perspective or with a male protagonist. The issue is simply a lack of representation, there needs to be more diverse…

Haha the Los Angeles Kings announcer being one of the successors lets the Canadian aspect of Trebek shine through!

Hey maybe they're the same person! I refuse to sign up for Twitter and ask that person though.

What concerns? That it was a mistake for reasons that aren’t actually expounded upon in any fashion other than the character “could have come back at some point?”

What she said and experienced as a real-life human and working actor is derived from what happened to her character— so yes, it does, quite literally, matter.

I dismissed it because it’s a loud, wet fart of a reply. It offers no substantiative rebuttal other than “well, it doesn’t matter what other people think about this because they’re not Thandiwe Newton.”

Haha, yes exactly! There's literally infinite ways the character could be brought back.

“Turns out one of our passengers worships the devil!”

“He's never even attended a meeting Cap! Kick him off the tour!"

But we all know the vacuum of space is livable whereas explosions are not, it's just basic film science.

They should have just cast her as another white character, and totally short-circuited the whole representation thing, right?

This website doesn't have editors, you know this!

Wow this thread really took off for a concept they can’t accurately be debated because the entire concept of what happened exists outside of objective reality.

I mean the word “fiction” does this in and of itself, there’s no reason to add the “sci” descriptor in there. I understand that “fiction” inherently means “not of this reality.”
