People should watch a tv show before they give a review of said program.
But it's the job of FReepers everywhere to boycott all things that we don't understand/agree with. It's right there in the bylaws. And by golly, if one FReeper thinks it's bad for me, well then, by golly it is bad for me.
Me thinks there's a little too much Kool-Aid being passed around on this thread. (And most of the boycott threads)

I think sometimes the boycotts get a little out of control. I've written plenty of emails to retailers etc, when I personally can see that there is a problem. However, it has to be important enough to bother with. This show isn't as bad as half the commercials I see. Verizon Wireless has a couple that perpetuate the notion that daddy is a useless dunce. They got an email from me.
If this keeps up, boycotts and letter writing campaigns are going to lose credibility, and so will we.
