But his life gets strange when two fairy godparents show up to grant his every wish \u2014 and hilarity ensues.<\/p>\n<p>The network is set to revisit its show, this time to be called \u201cThe Fairly OddParents: A New Wish.\u201d But there will be something different for the kids when the show comes back on May 20.<\/p>\n<p>With 10 seasons under his belt, Little Timmy Turner is out. He is to be replaced with a 10-year-old black character named Hazel Wells.<\/p>\n<p>Cosmo and Wanda will be back, but the scheme is very different. The fairy godparents are now retired and have moved away from Dimsdale. Moving to their new home in Dimmadelphia, they meet Wanda, the girl next door, who is sad because her brother left for college.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fairly Odd Parents: A New Wish (Trailer)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gowIXAIsgSA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The original 10-season <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/nickelodeon-parents-teach-kids-left-wing-activists-wont-turn-racist-like\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nickelodeon<\/a> series followed Timmy as he wrangled with life lessons and the mishaps his wishes caused. The concept also saw several full-length animated movies and a short-lived return to Dimsdale as a college-bound Timmy bequeathed his fairy godparents to his cousin, Viv Turner.<\/p>\n<p>The final series, though, only lasted for a season on Paramount+ due to a lack of ratings.<\/p>\n<p>The new series, though, is flipping the Turner family script to shoehorn racial \u201cdiversity\u201d into the series by introducing the property\u2019s first non-Turner recipient of the fairy godparents. It appears the previous shows were too white for Nickelodeon.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Is wokeism taking over kids&#8217; shows?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This seems to be a common occurrence for so many reboots for kids\u2019 shows.<\/p>\n<p>Take the recent reboot of the \u201cScooby Doo\u201d series, \u201cVelma,\u201d in which the white character of Velma Dinkley has been refashioned as an East Asian character who is bisexual.<\/p>\n<p>The first season of \u201cVelma\u201d was widely panned by critics and viewers alike. It was so bad that a raft of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/hbos-woke-flop-show-bad-spawning-conspiracy-theories-true-intent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">conspiracy theories<\/a> rose as to its true intent, as if it was that bad on purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The Velma character had already been <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2022\/film\/news\/scooby-doo-velma-lesbian-gay-1235392668\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">co-opted<\/a> by the LGBT community as a leading gay character.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, the co-opting became so blatant that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/kids-searching-classic-cartoon-character-online-will-force-fed-nasty-bit-propaganda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google festooned<\/a> a search of the character\u2019s name with gay-pride flags.<\/p>\n<p>Velma is not the only \u201cScooby Doo\u201d character to be given a woke remake. Daphne Blake, formerly white, is now an Asian, and Norville \u201cShaggy\u201d Rogers is now black and one of Velma\u2019s love interests.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, despite horrible ratings and bad reviews, Max is already debuting a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/genuinely-awful-scooby-doo-spin-off-drops-second-season-get-better\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">second season<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most persistent questions many have about Hollywood and the entertainment industry is why they have to take once-popular series and destroy them with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/conservatives-call-netflix-get-bud-light-treatment-wildly-popular-kids-show-takes-woke-turn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">woke<\/a> updates. Instead of tearing down past shows, why don\u2019t they just make something new that corresponds to their woke ideals?<\/p>\n<p>Their inability to create new shows that are as popular as their old ones reveals their utter lack of creativity, on one hand. But it also shows that they have no confidence at all that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/investor-fighting-control-disney-attacks-woke-films-aims-make-disney-entertaining\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wokeness<\/a> can successfully stand on its own and needs to be cloaked in characters that were once popular for other reasons.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>\u201cWe don\u2019t even know if an election will be held in 2024.\u201d Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Former Lt.
