Why is the media now obsessed with calling things "reboots"? The Paper is an upcoming streaming spin-off of The Office but I swear every article about it calls it an "Office reboot" and mentions Michael Scott and Jim and Dwight or whatever. Before then explaining that Oscar is the connecting character and everything else about it from the characters to location to the company itself is new. Stuff like the King of the Hill or Frasier returns aren't "reboots" but are constantly called this. Even with The Office, I've seen that new Australian version called a reboot. Why is there a massive capitalist conspiracy against having language that means anything and why is it always coming from people who make a living purely off the use of language?
