it's not that superheroes themselves are the problem. It's the ubiquity of major investment of production budget
Oh I feel that so much. I used to like superhero stuff, but now that's it's just so everything and everywhere, I want anything but lol
The only recent show I can think of that I'd suggest is Our Flag Means Death, which you may have already heard of since it's very popular right now. It's got a couple biggish names, but most of the cast are not and there's a ton of diversity in race and body type. Plus there are a ton of queer characters, including a non binary one played by a non binary actor! It deals with a lot of themes about identity and family and finding love for the first time in middle age, all of which I think they handled well.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
