I don't think most of the viewing public will find this show funny at all, with the characters delivering in-your-face pronouncements decrying homophobia and racism.

The new normal previews were enough to make me want to kick my tv screen in.

I can’t wait for the sequel - “My Neighbor from NAMBLA”

The white guilters who voted for Obama will watch this out of homophobia guilt. It will slowly rot out what is left of their minds.

You’re probably right. Most Americans won’t find this funny and won’t watch (past the curiosity phase). But this show will be seen as a referendum in popular culture in homosexuality, so the media will go all in and support it regardless of the dearth of viewers.

The solution isn’t to boycott this abomination, but to boycott ALL of NBC, then move on to the advertisers.

There are many reasons to boycott NBC. This is but another.

Is it just me, or is anyone else just sick and tired of this issue being in our face all the time?

I have gays in my family, and gay friends. It seems nearly every show has to put this issue front and center at some point. From Bones to The Good Wife, at some point homosexuality will be thrust front and center.

Then there’s Glee. Ugh. It’s getting so tedious. If you’re gay, I’m not sure all this exposure is helping your cause. There’s a backfire in here somewhere.

Gross. Although, what’s the difference if they swapped the sexes of all the cast members....two women in bed, a stud, an upset dad.... I doubt this would be OK for TV.

JC Penney?

I would love to know the male/female audience breakdown for this thing.

Look people need to do something radical!
JUST TEAR YOUSELF AWAY FROM THE TV!!!!!!!!!!
DON'T WATCH IT!

Even more radical, read a book !

Also while you are at it drop the news magazine subscriptions (E.G. Time, Newsweek, etc), and local news rag! Do I need to say anything about your New York Times or Washington Post subscriptions?

Call your cable company ask if you can block certain channels as say inappropriate for your kids (Lie if you don't have kids!). If they say yes we can do that! Then demand that they block CNN, HLN, fill-in-the-blank!. Even if the refuse to the word will get back to the networks.

I believe that this is the show that refers to a woman’s uterus as an “easy bake oven.”

Nice attitude towards women and life. (snort)

I had the auto-switch on my cable box set for Grimm, but TNN replaced it.

It was un-funny, it was cliche, it was pattern script. I watched about 5 minutes and turned the channel.

The SSAD (Same Sex Attraction Disorder) crowd does not contribute to the betterment of society. Their one agenda, crotch centered, is being placed above all else.

I currently have a large pumpkin plant with all Male flowers (over 35 so far) and not a single female. And just like the SSAD crowd, this plant will consume resources but produce nothing.

They cannot reproduce so they must recruit and to recruit, they must force society to believe it is just another choice.

One trend I noticed and expected:

And ABC's Modern Family rides high atop the ratings for reasons I cannot begin to fathom.
