Sometimes I see things TV wise that make me go seriously? Case in point, two shows I will never ever watch again because they are absolutely degrading to women: Entourage and Age of Love.
I recently rented Entourage from Netflix because there was much hype about the show. Essentially, the premises is that a group of guys from Brooklyn move to L.A. to “support” (read: mooch off) their friend. They treat women like they are disposable, going to trendy parties for one purpose only: to shop at Sluts-R-Us. Not to forget that they curse like their sailors. I don’t think the characters are aware that it is possible to extend ones vocabulary beyond four-letter words. Trust me when I say, this show isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. Entourage is chauvinism at its finest.
Age of Love isn’t any better. The exception is that it makes the point to objectify older *and* younger women by encouraging them to compete for one man’s affection. During the first episode the bachelor (Mr. Bad Tan Tennis Player) is devastated/pissed/concerned when he realizes that the first group of woman vying for him happen to be older. His personality, by the way is about as interesting as the air inside those green felt balls: seriously lacking.
