ORIGINAL: firefey ok, so it's late, and i'm tired, and i really don't want to be watching tv that makes me think. i end up drooling through an episode of blind date, until they bring on a man called snake. he says he's a "true master." but without any kind of explanation made by the blind date people. snake talkes about his desire for an obediant slave who can expect disobedience to be punnished. still, no mention of any form of context. on top of which, they make him out to be the strangest and most out of it person i've seen them bring on to date. grrrrrrr. everytime i get all excited about a good show with a good portrayl of our community, another like this comes on and ruins it all. It is very hard working with TV people (believe me I've done it). They may talk all about "wanting to let you tell the world the truth about your interests" but the bottom line is getting a rise out of the audience. I've met some good producers and directors but all too many have a sixth grade view of the world. [showing my age] They still think the equivalent of "If I dunk her pigtail in the inkwell, she'll be interested in me." Other have the DeMille approach ("If you want to send a message, use Western Union. This is ENTERTAINMENT.)
