Nah I think the buttmonkey will be all the 'old people' (Read, the writer's generation!) that Captain Tranit and the Tumblrteers interact with.

Because you can't have a tumblr tranny show without "DIE CIS SCUM" in it somewhere.

So I guess it's too much to hope for that the mean landowner could have like a niece in the hospital with some chronic illness and that's the reason he's such a hardass.

Because someone has to physically assault the unarmed black man, and it's certainly not going to be the oxycontin addict asian girl.

If the character isn't just Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force then they've completely failed at entertaining people.

Haven't they already basically admitted they trolled the chans themselves to get exactly this kind of response?

Yeah, It looks like they whipped up the chans deliberately to get a sympathy response.

...with which one of these characters are we supposed to sympathise..?
The "shit, lonely rapper", the "Psychopath" or the "Drug Junky"? Oh right. The transgender FIRST TIME IN HISTORY OF EARTH EVER character. My bad.
As said in Dobbos thread, this looks like Zelda CDI quality animation, I fail to see how these characters will be appealing or where the comedy is and "progressiveness" alone will not really win me over to watch something that is otherwise bullcrap.
Can we also trade Cameron for Chris Chan? Would at least make the show more interesting to me.
(Also I am sure that Taylors secret is a dick.)

I quite don't know if Gen Zed is good or not.
But that preview looks terribly unfunny. The jokes are too long-winded and fall flat, the animation is very basic. The art looks more like a webcomic than an animated show, looks better in stills than in motion.
The whole thing reeks of Tumblr. Characters are identified on simple labels: "the trans", "the loser/also token black guy", "the angry dudebro" and "fashion victim". It's so superficial and bland. It has to have some really good ANYTHING to balance the bland jokes and simplistic characters. Not a good impression at all.
Also the trans character being "just trans" feels kind of like transxploitation. Just saiyan.

Oh goody, this show already has its own thread! I see it's far shittier than I had originally imagined it to be and it hasn't even aired yet. This will be fun.

The black dude is seriously just Franklin from GTA V. Sweet natured, always sees the good in people, suffering from depression, crushing after a girl he probably can't attain.
He may as well be hanging around with two older white men that bitch and snipe at each other all the time.

You all should check the shows facebook out. All they talk about is trans issues. There's almost nothing else.

I think it's great there's a thread about it. This is like a tasty morsel for analysis and "point the hypocrisy" games that make for fun discussion.
It's going to be Tumblr: The Animated Series.
EDIT: Oh boy that facebook. I am now convinced transxploitation is a thing now!

There we go, Tranny's gonna be the main focus even if Black Dude seems to have better characterisation.

He struck me as more like Franklin from Peanuts. Or Token from South Park.
(Except Franklin was from 1968.)

I'd say Token.
Think about it. They'd fail with their intended audience (Tumblr) if they made the black guy be the "troublemaker"; making the trans black, oooh boy, put the brakes in there, we want to be progressive but not so much!; and they can't make him the "trustafarian" either because Tumblr would find it racist somehow because privilege or something. So he's just a nerd.
Which opens a completely different can of worms entirely, but we'd be here all day.

Yeah, this show is just way too stereotypical and it definitely sounds like something an SJW/tumblrina would make. Plus, the fact that these guys are othering trans people kind of makes them sound rather transphobic. Trans people are normal people just like cis people are. Why try to be so stereotypical and racist, especially if you are trying to come off as "progressive".
On an objective note, the animation is fucking abysmal and the lip-synching is especially awful as fuck. The jokes are very unfunny and they definitely seem like something a tumblrina would find to be "funny".
As much as I think Enter's an egotistical ass, this is definitely going to look as bad as Allen Gregory and will probably even be, dare I say it, an Animated Atrocity.

Also the name is ghastly. When I think of zeds I think zombies. Which is oddly appropriate but probably not what they intended.
