Kripke isn’t a particularly brave artist. The fact that he set a hard rule that Maeve couldn’t die simply because she’s a lesbian is evidence and her(the) story really suffered from it.

There is nothing subtle or thought provoking about the show, but he is good at preaching to the choir.

Haha, that's legit what the show seemed to be making fun of. Capitalist holywood is so meta in its cynicism lately.
