That's like every Gundam series, even the OVAs that are like 6-13 episodes.

lack of good female characters for a Gundam show,

Because the series has such strong female characters to begin with? Sorry, but outside of Haman Karn, there has not been a single Gundam female character that is memorable for good reasons. Frau was a moron and should have been killed. Salah became annoying as the series went on. Kamille's girlfriend was a moron. The girls in ZZ are useless. The woman in 0083 was a whiny moron. None of the girls in SEED and Destiny served any purpose beyond fan service. I don't even remember a female character in the few episodes of Victory I was able to sit through. And I'm not even going to get into the dumbass from CCA because that movie is just subpar as a whole.

and a cool concept (the mobile dolls) with interesting implications getting pushed to the side due to the Gundams getting upgraded so much.

The show is called Gundam, NOT Mobile Dolls. When they have a show named Mobile Dolls, I will care about seeing the Mobile Dolls on screen more than Gundams. This show featured Gundams, which is what the show is called, and why it is my favorite Gundam series.
