feeling rather crappy today, i decided to check out the show mental on hulu. has anyone seen it? i was really, really bothered by the depictions of mentally unstable patients. it's ignorant and stereotypical. people with mental issues are not subhuman, nor are they good entertainment between personal episodes of relationship anguish and snarky "cool-doc" escapades. rarely am i offended this much by television (surprisingly).
on a side note, i feel overwhelmed by pop culture and coolness. i suspect (in response to sylvia's post) that i react negatively to bad design, but have no reaction to "cool" design. OOPS. now what? this would certainly confirm my contempt for bent wood. not that i haven't sold out before in that category (very intentionally), but it leaves me feeling a bit unsettled... like i need to wash my cintiq.
well, i have to return some videotapes. cheers.
