I accidentally saw some episodes of the office. Michael Scott and Dwight are more reactionary than I originally remembered. Just small details, but also the character’s personalities.

I just get a lot of vibes like, the writers thought “History has ended” but seeing this stuff later in life I know for a fact history comes back for season 2.

I’ve noticed things and gotten the vibe from other old TV shows, too.

Hank’s racism in Breaking Bad

I know he’s a nuanced character with toxic masculinity problems, and his racism isn’t exactly presented as a good thing… but he’s still one of the good guys so the constant slurs are a little much
