I was posed the question, “Is it better for society to have shows like The Queen's Gambit (promoting chess, deep thinking, challenging for the mind) or the Mandalorian (promoting... baby Yoda, a.k.a Grogu)?”. I would argue that we need both in society, shows like The Queen's Gambit inspire and cause deep thinking while shows like the Mandalorian provide great entertainment but also show the power of love and determination. Both shows include meaningful concepts as well as crucial entertainment during COVID. I have watched both shows and have enjoyed them both immensely: The Queen’s Gambit was addicting and intense, while the Mandalorian took you into a different world with new and exciting characters. I would say both shows benefit society, and that a show shouldn’t dictate the way you feel or react.
