one thing I've begun paying attention to while watching reality TV is the audience's reaction to certain "characters." What's amazing is that the audience can absolutely despise a person on one season and then love them the next (or vice versus). The trend that I've seen amongst this is that the audience loves the underdog and hates the person in a position of power. It rarely has to deal with the personality of the person but rather their agency.
I think that's one of the biggest things that stood out to me while reading Hiassan. Disney seems to be hated by people precisely because they are like some people on the reality TV shows I watch. They are not the underdog.
