Defining Deviancy Down -- Again
So don’t watch it.
The networks have completely ruined the Soaps with this stuff...now primetime. And they are clueless as to why people tune them out.
I know that the liberals will say that this type of show is good family entertainment.
I wish the liberals would be intellectually honest enough to admit that a show like this couldn’t have been on TV ten or 20 years ago.
I wish they would admit that their constant pushing the envelope got us to this point where portraying this behavior is considered ok.
Nothing new in sitcoms.
ABC’s Three’s Company 30 years ago had an older divorcee Lana chasing the male lead Jack Tripper.
Ditto
You can count on Hollywood doing their depraved thing.
Courtney Cox is disturbed.
This is absurd. Besides Sarah Palin I can’t think of any old chicks I’d wanna get down with.
There’s always the V-Chip.
After all, a 40-something divorcée with several children and limited moral fiber is exactly what I want for my son.
Well, let’s see, among your other choices, a 17 year old drug addled goth, a thirty year old gay man, or a twenty something air head who will leave him and break his heart.
A couger just might be the best thing to happen to him.
Brilliant solution. Simple to implement, inexpensive, requires no government involvement and yet allows people who might enjoy such programming to still be able to watch it.
Burlesque, ala 2009 ... Nothing new here, folks ... Life goes on..
‘old chick’?
Come on!!!!?????
Are you old enough to post here?/kidding:)
Imagine this new show...
A guy turns 55 and finds himself recently divorced. What to do? Why hit on women who are 20 to 30 years of age of course. We’ll call the show, Lions on the Prowl.
Think women will find that show cute?
ABC has one butt ugly way of portraying older women. ABC evidently isn’t too knowledgeable regarding women who are 55. Generally they’re looking for a soul mate, not a kid who is still wet behind the ears, yet able to boink like a rock start.
Hey Carol, I’d like you to meet my new significant other. He doesn’t remember John Kennedy, the race to the moon, the Eagles, Queen, the Beatles, the Beegees, and the Iran Hostage crisis. He thinks Magic Johnson is ancient, and Michael Jackson is only a distant memory for him, something almost forgotten due to youth.
We have such long deep talks about life. Of course they’re all about last night in the sack or perhaps refer to our vacation six weeks ago. Other than that, we have nothing in common to talk about.
Boy can that kid boink though. Lucky for him my grand daughter is helping him with his math assignments.
Very impressive ABC. The problem is, I don’t think you were trying to convey the image you have.
It can star Fred Thompson.
Between this and the “A new kind of family” ABC family channel I’d have to place this network at the lowest rung of the quality television ladder.
