to clarify...leaving this show has nothing to do with wokeness.  Everything to do with, as ref earlier,  JUST PLAIN STUPID. I'd rather watch I Love Lucy re-runs. researching just watch now...

You have a right to be sexist, and make fun of any show you disagree with --  but please don't put false information out there.  The pay gap is NOT fictious.  If you bothered to look at demographic data from the US Census you would find the proof.  The gap has been decreasing since the 80's, but is still there.  From the latest Pew research:

In 2020 women earn 84% of what men do. In 2019 it was 82%. The gap is even wider if you're not a Caucasian woman.

And sure, nominally there was a law in the 60's that ended explicit obvious policies but knuckledraggers like you seem to have ignored it.. So some women are still discriminated against. Perhaps you remember Obama having to sign the Lilly Ledbetter act in 2009 - to have to strengthen the protections?

Why are all promising shows ruined by 'wokeness' and propaganda? Why not just stick to the premiss of  an alien stranded on earth and base the show on that? I don't want to be preached at or be entertained by the fictitious gender pay gap. It has been illegal for decades to pay somebody less money based solely on gender. I'm out.
