I am becoming increasingly aware of the ill treatment men are given in the advertising sector. They are portrayed quite often as stupid and inept in many commercials.

Commercials are doing to men what they have done in the past to women. The term 'dumb blond' and 'fiery redhead' come readily to mind.

In the same vein, there are more women 'super hero' types in tv dramas. Cops, scientists ,attorneys and more. Are they trying to undo previous damage done to the image of women?

It would be nice if things were more 'real'. By that I do not mean more reality shows, which are scripted and phony. While we are on the subject, if the tv shows about 'the real housewives of_____' are real, where are the shows about the phoney housewives? Who are they? I have never met one. Never having watched it, I don't know what the show is about, but I find the title intriguing.

TV sucks, for the most part. I can see I haven't missed much, while I have been gone. The pickings must be pretty slim, as they are bringing back 'Roseanne' and 'Dallas'. Resurrecting the dead, they are probably trying to pick up some viewers.
