yes, usually these involved male directors and female characters appearing on a show purely for an emotionally constipated male lead to come out of his shell and then for the female character to die the same episode.
again, a character does not have to be perfect to be likeable/and or well written.
sometimes when im watching those kinda tv shows--even though they can be one of my favs--i cant help but feel that the female characters always come off either:
cocky, 'girlboss', and or over-confident and often possess traditionally 'masculine' traits (no i dont agree that these traits are naturally, and should be associated only with men, and no personality traits or qaulities dont have a gender!)
those over-confident girls/women, usually have something portrayed by the show as 'daddy-issues' or an underyling 'issue' of why they are the way they are.
(at this point probably not even making sense but gotta finish what i started ig)
3. cant help but notice they're often 'crybabies' (also have to mention as women in movies/tv shows often get labeled as overly-emotional and crybabies when its just a woman expressing her feelings) by that i mean that they often have a 'wa wa my whole point is to be a manic pixie dream girl and have something wrong with me so the white knight in shining armour will save and fix me'. again, idk if im clearly explaining but i feel like everyone sometimes gets that vibe and im like girl stand up.
