I actually have a character named Gemma who's named after her (it was before I "met" you! But the character is awesome, don't worry!).
LOL, yeah, exactly. I mean, one of the comments pointed out that hey, Grey's Anatomy, full of female characters, and utterly crappy. What do you mean by "at least back then, the black, Latino and combo characters could actually get some, too!" - do you think that doesn't happen anymore? That could well be, I just haven't really noticed. And probably don't watch enough scripted TV to be able to tell.
A lot of people hate Season 4 but that's actually when I really got into the series (and watched new episodes as they came out) and that episode - "Sometimes a Great Notion," I believe, is truly one of the best. I use the FerretBrain approach to assessing suffering - does everybody suffer, both defaults and non-defaults? Then you're good to go.
