I am watching Gossip Girl and am suddenly horrified that they're at a club drinking. These girls are in high school! And they are aiming this show at high school girls! They are making it look like this is just what high school kids do. Like it's cool and this is what rich people do, and shouldn't we be like them? What are they teaching impressionable girls in their early teens who watch this crap like it's real?
Ack! I feel like such a mom.

It probably won't be any worse than what we were indoctrinated with: That any of Jason Prestley, Brian Austin Green, or Ian Ziering was supposed to be "a hottie."
Kashka, I learned that it is our civic duty to warn Jennie Garth's daughters that, if unchecked, their voices will get mousier and mousier, the only known remedy being sporadic appearances in made-for-TV movies.
No one deserves that.
I can totally relate. I often find faults with shows I used to enjoy watching pre-children. We rarely even watch a movie that has a rating higher than PG, and I even find many of them questnable. I find myself wondering when did I stop being fun? Was I ever?
