My wife will watch it from time to time,and you never see a movie where the woman ever does anything coniving or evil to her boyfriend or husband.Always the victim.It's like they're saying"Women good,men bad".

You think the programs are bad, what about the commercials? If you notice every time there is a MAN AND A WOMAN, on a commercial,the man is portrayed as a lazy slob, the big kid, worthless, a lyre, never knows the right product to buy (he usually uses product x,you know, the wrong one), and every other sexist stereo type you can imagine. On the other hand, women are impeccably dressed in business atire, knows the right product to use (the product of the sponser, not the one the stupid man is using. She always sets him streight),and just an all round supper duper soccer mom who does everything. And this goes for all stations.

Some of their movies are OK.....One particular movie "Men Don't Tell" showed another side to spousal abuse that not too many people thought possible.....the husband being abused and the wife the abuser.....Great acting by Peter Strauss.....and the Golden Girls are still funny:^)
