Yes, Sex and the City's reboot And Just Like That... is trying to close each of the wrongs from the archetypal bid (and movies), but the archetypal bid is hard to hide about. It was afloat of mindless language, characters, and situations that radical are inactive offended and impacted by today.

5. On The L Word (2004-2009), erstwhile Kit called Max retired for wanting to transition, and fundamentally shamed him due to the fact that it "saddened her that truthful galore strong, butch girls are giving up their womanhood to beryllium a man":

They wholly mishandled Max's transgender storyline connected The L Word, and dismissed the transitioning experience. Even though histrion Daniel Sea precocious revealed to IndieWire however The L Word: Generation Q tried to repair Max's archetypal storyline, it's inactive beauteous atrocious and did not property well.

6. On The IT Crowd (2006-2013), erstwhile Douglas was happily dating April, and past each of a abrupt was instantly turned disconnected erstwhile she revealed she "used to beryllium a man" (poking amusive astatine the transgender experience):

"The subplot with Douglas and April successful 'The Speech' occurrence is horribly anti-trans. There’s nary payoff that makes this worthy it (not that it’s in-character for him to 'accept' this, but still)."

—jbmasta

7. At the extremity of Police Academy (1984), erstwhile Cadet Carey wholly crossed the enactment and harassed Cadet Karen portion she was successful the opening stages of training:

8. In Almost Famous (2000), erstwhile Penny Lane was intelligibly seconds distant from having an overdose aft drinking and taking drugs, and William still kissed her:

I've loved Almost Famous since I was successful mediate school, but aft rewatching it recently, I can't assistance but beryllium disturbed by a fewer scenes (this 1 especially). We're encouraged to basal for Will due to the fact that helium "finally" admitted his emotion to Penny, but she was unconscious. She was virtually astir to overdose, and helium KISSED HER ANYWAY. What made him deliberation that was good to do?! Absolutely not.

—BuzzFeed

9. On The Brady Bunch (1969-1974), erstwhile the full Brady household was wholly mindless and mistreated a Native American household with horrible stereotypes (like Bobby introducing himself to a young lad by saying: "How"):

Unfortunately, determination are galore insulting episodes from The Brady Bunch astir Native American civilization to take from. Like this one, wherever Bobby leans into stereotypes of their language, and however to attack having a speech with them — it's sooooo cringeworthy to ticker successful 2026.

—BuzzFeed

"There's different occurrence wherever Cindy is wearing Bobby’s 'Indian' costume (a fringe vest, moccasins, and feather headband).

10. In The Way We Were (1973), erstwhile Katie "seduced" a drunken Hubbell portion helium was dormant and unaware of his surroundings (illustrating a disturbing infinitesimal of non-consensual sex):

Listen: I'm obsessed with The Way We Were with my full bosom and psyche — if anyone asks, they cognize I'd dice for Barbra Streisand. But, this infinitesimal from the movie ever felt disconnected to maine — the information that Katie is trying to "seduce" an unconscious Hubbell is very, precise problematic. She gets upset toward the extremity of their enactment country due to the fact that helium "didn't realize" it was her (but, like...you "persuaded" an unconscious antheral to person enactment with you?! Are we truly expected to consciousness atrocious for you successful this moment?). This infinitesimal certainly didn't property well.

11. In Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994), erstwhile they made a wholeeeeeee large gag retired of Lt. Lois Einhorn's sex identity, unluckily offending the trans assemblage backmost past and now:

"That movie got the transgender acquisition WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!"

"OMG, yes, I forgot astir this — I deliberation I blocked it out, actually. The mode they portrayed trans radical was disgusting."

—sawyerxvii

12. On Friends (1994-2004), erstwhile Carol and Susan's narration successful Season 1 was defined arsenic an evil origin successful Ross's life, alternatively than a groundbreaking infinitesimal successful Carol's idiosyncratic journey:

"Yes, we’ve each said it, but during my astir caller rewatch of Friends, each the lesbian and LGBTQ+ jokes during the aboriginal seasons were horrible. Carol and Susan announcing their marriage, Ross making a face, and the laughter way comes successful — instant cringe and look palm."

—josephsays

13. And erstwhile the amusement wrote anti-fat jokes astir Monica's value arsenic a precocious schooler, and capitalized connected the thought that "fat radical don't merit to beryllium treated similar everyone else":

"The CONSTANT anti-fat storylines connected Friends. They utilized each accidental they got to marque amusive of however Monica looked erstwhile she was 'fat,' some successful the contiguous time and successful the flashback episodes. She seemed to beryllium perfectly blessed with her assemblage earlier Chandler made that comment."

—pandagirl31001

"Two words: 'Fat Monica.' That’s 1 that feels similar it wasn’t conscionable a lawsuit of it was 'a antithetic time,' but conscionable your basal 'let’s laughter astatine abdominous people' joke. It wasn’t chill then, and it isn’t chill now. Even successful the precocious '90s/early '00s, determination were conversations astir eating disorders, truthful portraying idiosyncratic who was a comparatively 'normal' size arsenic a gag was profoundly unhealthy."

14. And connected Glee (2009-2015), erstwhile Ryder confided successful the glee nine astir being molested arsenic a kid by an older woman, and Artie didn't recognize his trauma due to the fact that helium thought it was "cool":

There are so, so, SO galore moments from Glee that didn't property good — this amusement is the explanation of "aging similar milk." This country particularly was truthful problematic — I don't cognize however it made the last cut, oregon wherefore it was written successful the archetypal place? Glee ne'er took intersexual harassment seriously, particularly for a amusement that astir radical assertion to beryllium "ahead of its time."
