Lesbo wasn't considered offensive back then. There are a lot of words that started off inoffensive, but then became considered offensive over time. A century ago "retarded" was considered an actual medical term, and was used in textbooks (it literally means "slow"). Now its very offensive.

Reply to Leon: The Professional (1994) Discussion by HS_13_
People keep posting about this movie on this sub just so people can say its creepy and the director is a pedo. It seems like there have been dozens of posts about this.
Personally I think the movie does get a little questionable at parts, but never crosses a line. Maybe the director wanted things to go further, but other people involved in the movie prevented that from happening.
Putting all that aside, its a good movie.

Wasn't there also a Bonanza crossover?

The Birdgirl spinoff wasn't that good either.

I agree. It should be Madoka Magic instead.

Wholesome? I remember the original show being pretty raunchy for its time. Probably a lot more so than the new one.

Reply to comment by bjb406 in BBC to produce ‘lighter’ content to attract Britons from poorer backgrounds by do_or_pie
I think the implication is that poorer people generally have unhappier and less fulfilling lives. So, they're less likely to want to indulge in dark and depressing shows, since their real lives are already depressing enough. Instead, they might prefer lighter escapist stuff to take their minds off their problems.

Reply to comment by Petrichor02 in 'The Winchesters' plot holes and retconning might be a sign that the story takes place in an alternate universe from 'Supernatural' by sundaynightheat99
Maybe this show takes place in an alternate alternate universe where nothing was destroyed.

Reply to Miami Vice Reboot by Ok-Excitement-5594
The 80s was a large part of what made Miami Vice what it was. The music, the clothes, the cars, and the social issues of the time. There are plenty of cop shows, but Miami Vice was an 80s cop show to the extreme. It wouldn't be the same today.

It makes me wonder what things will be like when the kids of the "offended" generation come of age. How will they rebel against their parents?
