Outside of South Park I don't watch TV shows anymore but TV ads and TV shows seem to have something in common.

Propaganda Directive 2:

The white male shall always be portrayed as a dunce.

It's a lot like "Sex and the City" for men, a comparison that surely came up when the show was pitched to network executives. Except that these characters aren't wrestling with empowerment so much as they're wallowing in victimhood. They're constantly beset by the women in their lives: badgering wives, cheating wives, fickle ex-wives, insidious ex-lovers.

Like "Sex in the City", huh? Is this one also written by homosexual men?

Another reason why I watch very little broadcast TV. The remainder of my TV entertainment comes from classic TV shows on DVD.

Wonder what version of Bigshots she’s watching, not the one I’m watching.

I’m sure it’s going to be a runaway smash hit.

IMO, one would have to have nothing going on in one’s life to be an avid watcher of network television....I watch Friday Night Lights but that’s about it. The Discovery channel gets the most airtime in my house.

I watch Supernatural on the CW. Don’t like the ads for most of their shows, but do like that. Sam and Dean do not seem at all weak.

I don’t watch the propaganda machine very much at all.

Thanks to our educational system, which is almost totally run by women with a feminist ideology, men today are more like eunuchs than males. It does not surprise me that we have programs that reflect this perverse condition. No doubt the program will attract women and homosexual viewers, but no masculine male will watch such garbage. Some of the effeminate males will find it attractive.

That's the fallacy of zero-sum empowerment: No self-respecting female TV viewer wants to lust after a man who won't fight back.

Well, pissing off the viewers gets them in a lot less trouble than pissing off feminist pressure groups...that's why. ;)

Don’t worry. Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, and many others make women look like dunces, too.

This has been going on for years. On TV commercials it is always the woman or some minority that saves the idiotic white guy from destroying something.

White Guys do rule when it comes to being couch potatoes though!

We really don’t watch much TV either.

But with a teen daughter, we will be watching the new “Project Runway.” They have a new season that started last night. And we are waiting for the next ‘24’ season.

Otherwise, it is start up the DVD, and watch what we want to watch. We just finished LOTR this past weekend. It was a wonderful family time.

South Park. King of the Hill. Seinfeld. And God help me, I watch ‘Kitchen Nightmares” with Gordon Ramsey (trying to rehab terrible restaurants).
