Literally the only people I’ve seen mention the wigs are “snarky” pop culture websites like AVC and their comment sections.

The wigs are fine

Well, in S1 of GOT Jon was furious that for all his swordsmanship skills he had been assigned to be nothing more than a glorified house maid to the Lord Commander, even though the reason was pretty much the same as in Rhaenyra’s case. So, this is a prime example of being too blinded by one’s ideological biases to

Yeah, I’m all for equal rights, representation and all that stuff, but would it be too much to ask for a reviewer who is not ideologically biased to such an extent that they fundamentally misread major plot beats of the show (Jon kills Dany because he doesn’t want a woman on the throne, Viserys is grooming Allicent)?

Moreover, by all accounts, it had strong ties to some of the Batman properties that the new bosses seem like they want to move away from. The fact that it was bad and exists in a “universe” you are trying to move
