"I only watched the first episode, in came the token lesbo couple, I said, no more. I am not watching any programs with homo crap in them."

Yeah, I noticed they had to throw that in, even in a small town, they had to have an interracial lesbian couple.

Another thing I've noticed is that even though the town is cut off from the outside world - and presumably all incoming food and other supplies - there has not been (in the episodes I've seen) a panic run on local supplies of food, matches, gasoline, and other modern necessities. In other books I've read where there is a major disaster (e.g., nuclear war), the FIRST thing that happens is that the stores are cleaned out of all food and other daily items (toilet paper, batteries, etc).

Heck, they do that around here when the forecast is for a few inches of snow.

I haven't been watching the series, but that is a major plot point in the book.

You'd better find something else to occupy your time then. Homosexual characters are de rigeur on TV now. Hollywood is run and owned by gays and we're now in the "de-sensitization" propaganda phase. We went through something similar on TV when audiences were programmed to accept feminism via Mary Tyler Moore, Rhoda, Maude, Murphy Brown, Roseanne and much other argle bargle.
