This is why the shift to everyone hating each other has been so hard for millennials.
Many of us went to diverse schools where everyone basically got along. Sure, jokes were made & bad people existed, but there was a general code of respect.
Social media + rage bait ruined that
What Twitter doesn’t seem to realize is that the Harry Potter Show is a combination of four big factors.
1. We are far enough away from the OG series that it’s nostalgic; we are in peak late 90s/early 00s nostalgia as we speak.
2. The show is going to include everything from the books; including new ideas. This will interest countless book fans and OG film lovers who felt that the movies left too much out.
3. This is Harry Potter for a brand new generation. The kids who watched those original films are now parents; parents who will be showing this to their kids for the first time.
4. It’s HBO and is being run by the best of the best.
This is the perfect storm, with a Christmas 2026 release date as the cherry on top.
The ratings are going to be historic.
