I used to watch it sporadically when it aired and started watching it from the begging now, just finishing 3th season. I knew it had racial/racist jokes but I'm shocked with the amount of transphic jokes it has. I tried to see if there were some discussion around it, but I only found a video from T1J focused on the racial content but he didn't mention the transphobia even once.

Have she ever talk about that? Like acknowledging if was transphobic or something? Or is her writing still like that?

Traded one for the other eh. I still haven't watched that show; I always preferred stuff from the UK, which has their own problems as a viewer like us
