The Sandman

It's pretty obvious many of the people complaining and giving low scores are too used to having things their way all the time. Even when depicting fantasy fiction lives and characters it seems too far fetched to see women, lgbtqia people of colour with riches and in main roles.

I think for the people who are so concerned with sexuality, gender and race in fantasy fiction they would do well to remember that in reality at the beginning of humanity their was only one race existing and they were in Africa and who knows what sexuality and genders they chose to observe at that time.

I've spent three decades watching the same typical type of actors play dress up as every single type of character that could be imagined, while getting rave reviews for how well they can pretend to be something they're not in real life.

I found this show was a slow burn for me after the first two episodes I wasn't sure I wanted to continue, with no prior knowledge of The sandman story it seemed dull and boring. However, it seemed to just get better and better from episode 3 and I found it difficult to switch off and go to bed. An incredibly refreshing, engaging, heart warming and well written show made even better by the array of flamboyant characters.
