Fun fact: I sometimes watch the new stuff with my niece and they have many female characters now. The latest season even has a girl village next to the normal one and they regularly interact with each other but there are female only episodes as well. The normal village also has women, I'm not sure about the exact (gender) dynamics at play
So the new version passes the Bechdel test?
no, but it does pass the Smurfdel Smurf
Yeah but one does have to question if segregation is actually progress
It's even funny the way the parent comment described it: a girl town right next to the normal town.
Depends on the culture.
The Air Nomads were segregated in Avatar, but they were sexually progressive forever, and raised children communally. Stuff like that is fine.
I know nothing of Smurf lore, but they don’t seem like one of those repressive segregated cultures.
No, the main village contains women but there is a small village with a young girl clique. Gargamel has his niece and nephew for a visit. Might be special for smaller kids. The episodes weren't that long online (they aren't anymore but older episodes are)
Wow! TIL. Also, maybe less surprisingly, I just found that EURIMAGES has it as a criterion, so I guess no public EU money for your movie project if it doesn't pass the test.
