Having seen the statements made previously, I can see many things which line up as the writer of that accusation intentionally misinterpretting something to put their own spin on it and denigrate those who disagree with them (fans of the games and book series).
The icing on the cake is the claim that he was toxic because he wasn't comfortable doing nudity or sex scenes that weren't in service to the plot. Can you imagine what would happen if a woman said the same things, and then the producers of the show tried to pressure them into it? I can certainly see toxicity in that interaction, but it's not from the person setting boundaries.
The accusation claims to be from a staff member, but is anonymous, so that remains just a claim, and seems just to take already public nuggets of information (such as the above) and recast them in a new light. I do not see anything in there that would have been new information that has been substantiated after it was written, which leaves me in doubt as to the veracity of the claims regarding the accusers position.

they don't let stuff like that get on tv
closest would be that 1970s british sitcom the good life i guess

One Piece is cool. I don’t know exactly what my next “arc” is, but I’m through about the first 100 chapters of the manga and they’re about to enter the grand line, or at least reverse mountain. I’m sure some shenanigans will keep them on the mountain for a bit.
The new series does look cool enough. It might just make me want to watch one pace though.

babylon 5: into the babylon-verse.
The anime trailer looks like it could be about any character from any media, it doesn't look like babylon 5 to me (although I only saw a few episodes).

As of right now, there are no officially announced plans for an ongoing animated Babylon 5 reboot, spinning off from The Road Home.
Not sure if it's a yes or no

Reply to The enduring joy of Golden Girls: a wildly sassy sitcom that will always cheer you up by ziq
Enduring joy. A perfectly apt turn of phrase. Golden Girls really clicked for me in the last decade or so. It is so so funny, and can make me cry like a baby, and my god is it so campy. Just delightful through and through.

Deadly Class seems to kind of fit your description. I haven't watched it but it seems close to your premise and was released in the right time period.

They said the movie was actually completed a few years ago, it just took this long to get it broadcast.

lol they called it 'Sliding', awesome.
it's really surprising they took this long to make an animated movie when WB has been pumping out animated movies for their other franchises for decades

Reply to comment by InfAmy in Toxic Gamer Henry Cavill? Actor Accused By The Witcher Staff Member by kinshavo
I heard something like this, mostly that he was just trying to keep the show faithful to the books and bc he is really a witchers fan he would bother producers and writers to cut the crap while doing the show..
It's like we are reliving the 60s and Chinese cultural revolution again but with modern themes.. And other thing is that this whole entertainment industry is toxic as a whole (videogames, cinema, tv, internet, social media,etc)
