YES! It was pissing me the hell off. It also distracted us from our favorite game, counting the number of angry snake shots per episode (we predicted 5, but there was so much rain this episode, I believe we only counted 2 or 3)

Yeah, that kinda bugged me too. I'm glad they didn't draw it out, but for a show that always seems so real, it felt odd to have it jump into "sitcom-time".  Even though most people I know don't get mammogram results same-day, I could buy that part, but not the cancer diagnosis.

Your post is exactly the point i keep trying to make. If your goal (as a film-maker) is to progress to a point where gay people are treated the same as everyone else, and not defined by their gayness, then DON'T DEFINE THEM only by the gayness!  I'm straight and as pro-gay-rights as anybody, but shows like Glee just…
