Imagine feeling so uncomfortable by the concept of diversity that a black King Arthur (in a totally new take of the mythology, mind you) makes grown adults so furious that they feel the need to rage-review the show into oblivion. It's comical, get hobbies. 😂

10/10 to combat the all the overly critical 1-star trolls. I'll begin by saying that no, it's not a perfect show, but it's interesting and completely fresh take on a classic story. There aren't any overt or pushy BLM themes in it, people reviewing are just against BLM To begin with and complain that BLM is taking over anytime a POC is put in a role these "critics" deem POC don't deserve. Stop condoning racism and grow up. Also colorblind casting is an actual type of casting that is often used for theatre but is also sometimes used in movies and television, and it's COMPLETELY okay. Want an all-white King Arthur series? Go to film school and make it yourself, hot shot! *Mic Drop*

I am honestly besides myself about all of this. I watched this a few months ago and ended up deeply enthralled in this storyline and was so confident that there would be a 3rd season. I was honestly so convinced that there would be a 3rd season that I never even considered the fact that it could even be canceled. Needless to say, I was shocked the other day when I heard the news that Netflix decided to cancel The OA. One of the most interesting stories out there and they decide to cancel? And not only was it interesting, but it was also insanely innovative, well done, and likely an actual original concept (never before thought of and/or executed) story that transcended both mind and space? And they decide to cancel?
