What do you think of Will and Grace?
I find it odd because it was meant to be a groundbreaking show but when you break down the show it's just a bunch of stereotypes linked together. I just find it odd because if you stereotyped races like this it'd be almost racist.
Maybe I just don't like Will and Grace, maybe I just got out of bed the wrong side this morning.

Who the fuck watches Will and Grace?!

It's all good, Everybody Loves Raymond sorted me out and now it's time for Frasier. We are all good.
I am not normally up early enough to watch Faggot and Ginger but unfortunately I have had a crap nights sleep.

You, Limetless, like Everybody Loves Raymond? An American sitcom?
What the dickens :o
Perhaps you are finally starting to see the light?

The interesting thing about Will and Grace is that there are two supposedly gay characters who never actually do anything gay on camera. They engage in all of the stereotypical behavior associated with being gay, but God forbid they kiss a man or have a consistent long-term relationship.
On TV in general, gay characters usually play very minor roles and their characters never develop. Even Modern Family, which has a prominent gay couple, their characters are the least developed on the show. They supposedly have a daughter, but she is only used as a prop for the two gay characters arguments (because all they do is argue).

I've always liked Raymond mate. :)

I feel like lesbians are often over the top stereotypes, as I've known many lesbians none of which were attractive at all which is the first stereotype, and none wore flannel - although one did have short spikey hair and wore mens suits.
However, of the gay men I have met several were very stereotypical flamboyant gay men.
If you're bored enough to watch Will & Grace, here are some ideas for other shows I've been watching online this week: Trailer Park Boys (3rd time I've watched them all), Eastbound & Down (2nd time I've watched them all, Season 1 is the best though), The Wire, Breaking Bad

Lol it was only on because I watch it on morning TV, like I said I'm not normally up that early haha. I already watch The Wire. :)
Will and Grace just strike me as an odd show because it's just a string of stereotypes about gay people strung together in various orders for about 22 minutes an episode, rinse, then repeat. It strikes me that if say any show did that about say black culture or something like that it'd just get stamped as racist whereas this is praised for celebrating stereotypes. ???

Don't understand how you can watch those TV shows, it feels like I turn into a patato, good for passing time but eh...
When you scrutinize any sitcom you'll see they all have similar features, just like you've found in Will and Grace, they're all just as fake and stereotypical as the next.
I suggest not wasitng your time there, really.

View that in your normal browser though, don't slow down the TOR network for something so pointless.

Remember 'Token' from South Park? LOL, it took me a while to get that joke, but I laughed long and hard when I got it.

I usually just leave the TV on for the noise when I'm home alone, it's a comfort thing. :) Having Cheers on in the background creates quite the pleasant atmosphere, it's like I'm relaxing at the bar with my mates for all I know. :)

I put on music, or a mix of pink noise and white noise, or www.rainymood.com

TV is a mind-control device, but now I sound like a maniac.

I am sure that most TOR users do not how to watch a youtube from behind TOR.
Flash and anonymity are no friends of eachother.
I like my movies not to be fluid.
If I get 5 or 6 photo's per second and the sound is good, I know I am behind TOR.
If it goes all to smooth in a youtube movie, I do not trust the connection anymore.
I could show how youtube should look like from behind TOR, but there has to be animo for it.
