What??? This was a sillyfun Doctor Who spinoff. There was nothing grimdark about it

Have you watched Children of Earth? Genuine question. If yes and you don't think it's grimdark, then I guess the definition of grimdark really did evolve beyond my understanding of it.

SPOILERS FOR CHILDREN OF EARTH, sorry I don't know how to spoiler cut on dreamwidth

Because if: 'we're willing to sacrifice 10% of Earth's children because all our politicians are too scared to come up with another solution, and hey, it's not 'our' children anyways, so who cares. Also, one of the main characters dies horribly while the immortal one wakes up next to his body and later has to kill his own grandson very graphically on screen to save all the other children' is not grimdark, I genuinely don't know what is.

DA but I think there is a difference between dark storylines and "grimdark" media.

It drives me crazy that people can't seem to understand this. I can think of plenty of pieces of media of all types that have dark storylines but that aren't grimdark.

Anon before the anon you replied to

Maybe I do not understand grimdark indeed. I genuinely thought it was 'there is no hope, everyone can die at any point including main characters, nobody gets a moment of peace, everyone is miserable'. If it's not, then I'm very much willing to get educated, because I always assumed that that was indeed the definition.
