It only continues if it makes cash money though, as you seem to indicate with removing merchant and cancelling programs.
Since you are resigned to not pay attention, I'll let others speak for themselves.
It's not just ONE female character on the CW channel, but a much broader issue.
Posting over here to focus on the entertainment and sci-fi matters.

Looks like week two shows a huge drop in viewership, and it's taking Supergirl down with it too.
Supergirl's season 1 premier had 12 million viewers. Season 5, episode 2 had around 1 million.
Batwoman is now officially the lowest performing CW/DC show of all time.
Viewership for the second episode fell 20% (it might have been as much as 30%... I can't recall, so I'm being conservative here). If you include viewership for the original airing of the pilot as well as the encore, viewership for the 2nd episode fell by 50%.
Online SJW woke pink haired weirdos doing their usual damage control, saying that the bad ratings and the show's struggles are because of online trolls. Unfortunately for them, nobody living in the real world listens to them anymore and the abysmal ratings speak for themselves.
Maybe a few more examples of these massive failures and a 380 electoral college blowout by Trump will finally get it through their thick skulls that people are tired of this bullshit.
Probably shouldn't have told "old white guys" that it wasn't made for them. Because besides old white guys it looks like pretty much nobody else gives a shit about CW/DC shows.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Some of these door knobs can't even agree with themselves. How'd we get so lucky?

I'd like to think we've got perseverance or some such thing, but I think it's just that all the rest bounced off of the windmills enough times to realize the futility

I still got bounce, I guess...

So it’s just captain Mary Sue, or Rey-Sue in SW, or Thorina Jane Foster, or Lady 007,or NurseWho, ... but it’s not everywhere?
Huh
That’s funny.
I honestly wouldn't notice much of it if you guys didn't keep bringing it up, and I honestly wouldn't care that much, because I believe the reasons behind the trend such as it is, is more greed than social preaching - some of each for sure, but mostly money (people keep forgetting the "follow the money " mantra, oiy).
Try and consider the marketing and $potential of opening up a new genre. Super Hero movies were getting pretty stale, weren't they? How interesting is another white male super hero? So...how did Female Captain Marvel do? Just a tad over $1,000,000,000 (1 Billion) USD worldwide. You think the studio was happy with that? When something $works the gimmick goes viral, lots of people want in on it. Is Apple the only one making smart phones? They were for a short while - then, boom. Same thing with movie genres. We had western revivals for a while. Lately Strong Female leads. Everyone talks about it, it's part of society's conversation, it's big frellin' money. They'd be stupid not to mine it for all it's worth./
Was Captain Idiot trying to make an argument that woke was good for making money here?
Here's one for you then too...

THE MARVELS Could Be Shaping Up To Be An "Epic" Box Office Bomb For Marvel Studios

Recent box office tracking for The Marvels pointed to a disappointing opening weekend for the Nia DaCosta-helmed Captain Marvel sequel, but the latest updates indicate that the cosmic MCU adventure could perform significantly worse than expected.
Some analysts believe that $55M - $75M domestic debut will actually be closer to $45M, and The Marvels' tickets pre-sales have reportedly been the weakest for any Marvel Cinematic Universe movie in the post-Covid era, which suggests an overall lack of interest from potential cinema-goers.
The budget for Captain Marvel was AT LEAST $274 Million (Disney has been caught lying about production budgets more than once in 2023).
We just saw Five Nights at Freddy's, which was made on a $25 Million budget gross $80 Million in the US and nearly $53 Million internationally in its first 3 days. Disney/Marvel should consider itself VERY lucky if The Marvels manages $130 Million worldwide after its second weekend.
The Marvels Suffers Worst MCU Ticket Pre-Sales In 4+ Years

Captain Marvel 2 is set to perform significantly worse than its 2019 predecessor, as indicated by a recent report of poor pre-sale tickets.
The Marvels' pre-sale tickets have been the weakest for any MCU film in the post-Covid era, suggesting a potential lack of interest from general audiences in this new installment.
This would equate to The Marvels having lower presales than any MCU film since, at the latest, 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home. This may come as a surprise as 2021's Eternals was a box office disappointment by Marvel standards, drawing in only $71.3 million opening weekend.
