Everyone is going to be black and you can't get mad because it's a fantasy world :)

Black, trans, overweight, handicapped, and retarded

>Wilkins denied the new deal was in response to Narrativia’s dissatisfaction with The Watch. “Though Narrativia retain an executive producer credit in The Watch, they have no creative involvement in the project. However, they of course wish The Watch all the best.”
David Gomez
Thing is Pratchett would love it, massive luvvie that he was

Bwahahahahah

I'm obviously never going to watch that pozzed garbage The Watch, but I'm not acquainted with Terry Prachett's books. How far did it divert from the original story besides the propaganda?
Andrew Brooks
I hope we get more Deathkino
Andrew Perry
Well, I probably won't watch them. The books were enough for me.
I suppose it'll get a new generation interested in them, they're probably going to be a little perplexed when they find out all of the wizards aren't transgender in the books though.
Hunter King
Pratchetss stuff was always fairly cosmopolitan Blairite propaganda

It's not out yet but-
>Anna Chancellor as Vetinari "With the combining characteristics of Dracula and Elvis – Lord Vetinari has sprung to life in the most alarmingly joyful way.”
>C.M.O.T. Dibbler traded in his sausage cart for a wheelchair and is now a woman in charge of the criminal underground of Ankh-Morpork
>Cheery the dwarf lost the beard and desire to appear feminine, played by non-binary Jo Eaton-Kent
>Lady Sybil is a vigilante
>Also, electric lamps/fans

The production deal isn't with the BBC.
Gabriel Morgan
I just want hardcore graphic sex scenes with his grand daughter.
Samuel Campbell
Get in line.
Isaiah Brooks
I love how all of that is completely inccorect.
Although good casting for nobby, dunno why it’s blonde though

Henry Foster
Nobby and Colon already are all those things user, imagine if they were black too
Wyatt Diaz
Choo choo
Samuel Evans
reminder that Tolkien is about a bunch of dope hobbits migrating to foreign lands and cooperating with other races to defeat an elderly white man.
Logan Johnson
Same, but only with me.
Tyler Jackson
Pratchett was liberal but a far different breed than the kind today.
Brayden Anderson
the UK has been ignoring race on the stage for decades at this point. Pratchett would probably be doing J K Rowling-style retcons to add gay and trans characters.
Jason Harris
You mean the setting where a tribe without a home but great lust for gold goes to a foreign country to kill the native inhabitants, so they can settle there?
Hudson Allen
This is it. I’m finally going truly insane. I hope you’re happy, BBC America, you have created an eldritch abomination beyond my wildest fever-dreams
Chase Fisher
They took Nobby and Colon out of the show completely
John King
What the actual fuck is this
Kevin Foster
The ones now are just a logical conclusion of those who came before
Brody Martinez
I know, which cuts the knees out from any watch adaptation and that creature they got for angua can easily be a memed to be a nobby
Elijah Robinson
God, please, dont give me hope... I know they will fuck it up as they fucked any recent fantasy adaptation, but I want good Discworld tv show.
Wyatt Hughes
It's good news, but I still won't get my hopes up.

>inb4 CIS Watch turns out to be an okay show after all
Easton Cook
I don't think he would agree with the sheer vitriol and hateful rhetoric from the modern left nor the thuggery / cancel culture. Don't forget Vimes was a racist and was portrayed as being an objective hero and good force in the Disc.
