My main point that I have now completely left behind is that there is a difference between a misogynistic show and a misogynistic character, and I think that is an important distinction.]
Yes. And I'd add that there's a difference between a misogynistic show, and a misogynistic story, or even arc. In fact, I think it is possible to have a misogynistic premise (I don't think "The Inside" will) and not be a misogynistic show.
An awful lot of crime *is* misogynistic in nature, so for me, it wouldn't work to ignore that.
While I know that there's some overlap between the two terms, a lot of what gets discussed as misogyny strikes me as more correctly described as chauvinism. Despite "Billy," I don't think there was much misogyny on Angel, but the show and character were often guilty of chauvinism.
I rewatched the episode again today (3rd time lucky) and it is indeed Skyman, not Simon.
I kinda get a Darla/Angel vibe from Web/Becky (but not really in a sexual way. Although that would be funny).
For those who had trouble downloading the GF pilot: [link]
P-C, myself and my boyfriend's roommate thank you.
I shouldn't even attempt that with dialup, should I?
It's over 400 megs, so I say...no.
It's of course possible that if someone already had your address a copy could turn up in the mail.
I mean, if that were even vaguely ethical.
I started downloading it -- apparently it's going to take 21 hours.
Sigh.
