The fact that they replaced the dark skin mom has me seething.

That actually doesn't make me want to watch it tbh. I support blackness, but I draw the line at obvious colorism.

Netflix picked this show up based on a short film that was based on a comic iirc, in both the short film and comic she was a dark-skinned black woman.
