What I loved most about Mike & Molly was that it was a very real sitcom. Here was a show about two people in a loving relationship who are not a Barbie/Ken type that is typically found on most sitcoms. They both have their problems (Mike wanting to find true love and Molly trying to lose weight and attending Overeaters Anonymous, who also wants to find true love). The show was created by Chuck Lorre who created Two & A Half Men.

Well I disagree with the KEN part. Doug in King of Queens, and Jim Belushi in According to Jim were all average American men with hot wives. There was also another short-lived show on CBS that had a larger hubby and slim petite wife, cant remember the name. (I do get your overall point though and agree there)

But the stinking rich Chuck Lore, yeah.. him and Shonda Rhimes run Hollywood evening TV.
Huge power flowing through their hands.

Unless they're gay I could see Chuck and Shinya coming together and running tv. He has the sitcoms she has the drama and maybe she could help that dude put some interesting people of color in his shows. I'm so tired of watching Raj on BBT get absolutely no love after 8 seasons. Creepy pervert Howard gets a cute wife and even asexual Sheldon has a girl but the rich physicist can't find a woman in all of California? Sad. And she could do with some better comedy too.

Wow! That's going to take me a sec to digest. Dayum...
Is it that serious that no one can play a video game without wanting to see your sexuality represented? lol
(I know that someone could counter well the same could be said for race, but sorry, there are MEN all over video games, thus quite well represented. ) Anyhoo.

Lol

True

Even if they're white or asian, they're still swinging cocks and behaving like men so I have an easier time relating, than say...a woman

Unless of course, she's totally 'white power' and identifies more with race than gender

Old enough to remember Archie bunker and his disdain for the polish

I remember someone recorded a song dedicated to Kelly Bundy. It pissed off a lot of women's groups. Christina Applegate did more than look sexy on that show. She aslo danced(Applegate is a performance artist when not acting). But this was before her double mastectomy. I'm glad she is still working.

Jim Belushi and Kevin James were sort of modelled after Jackie Gleason's Ralph Cramden. John Goodman and Roseanne were as real as they could be on tv. Paul Reiser was an average Joe on Mad About You, but he got outclassed by Helen Hunt.
 
King of queens is my show!!! Doug and Carrie and their relationship, reminds me of my own relationship with my guy :)
 
First take is too damn long of a show. Stephen a. Smith can go over the top at times.

Sports nation, his and hers (formerly numbers never lie) and others are cool.
 
Not quite the first time to be honest. Lionhead Studios, who developed the Fable series during the first Xbox, you actually were allowed to marry a male or female companion and engage in sexual pleasures. And prior to that, in the 16-bit era, a lot of JRPGs explored sexuality, albeit in their own brand of thinking, though, with some localization, it was censored.

It's old news but don't hate for trying to shit stir :p

As for the capacity, the rpgs made by bioware include gay/bisexual love affairs as options for the player. The games generally sell like hot cakes so I'm assuming most people are for it or generally don't care enough not to buy it

The games had stellar reviews btw
:-o

In Alabama of all places.......

But yeah imagine that

Instead of attacking the poor (as if their lives don't already suck enough) with fines and jail time, a group decides to give them enough to live on for a minute, while encouraging them to refrain from theft (ie try to seek out help)

On another note, I finally got around to watching my Divergent bluray that's been sitting on my dresser for months

Another one of those social films that makes you wonder

Well I didn't consider Raj in that light until you brought it up a long time ago, and I tend to agree with you here.

The thing is, why not introduce a new Black character. There are many BM nerds. engineers, etc that could find a place on the show. IT'D BE NICE IF HE HAD A WHITE GIRLFRIEND, too.

And where are the Asians? Time to update the show.
