The Real Pig Problem

The arrogance of Millennials knows no bounds. So much so that some dumbass on DS poses the question for suggestions on how to "fix" Sharon.

I'll admit that, via the ignorance of Lorraine Newman, a lazy bunch of Millennial writers and a snooty upper-middle-class Oxford graduate whose ego is bigger than his shoe size (nudge nudge wink wink) have contributed to Sharon being written atrociously this time around, but the real problem isn't Sharon, it's the viewers.

The show is now a hotbed welter of manboi/fanbois and cheerleaders to whom the concept of history (and good grammar) mean nothing. If their lives depended on it, they could neither think critically nor understand the concept of nuanced characterisation.

Their only form of criticism is to name-call people as animals, pejoratively.

Maybe the repeat showing of EastEnders should be the next day on CBBC. That's the element to whom The Messiah is aiming this tripe. 

Pun intended.
