And that WASP brunette converted to Judaism for her husband in the later seasons of the show. Even at the time, the plot line sat weird with me.
Didn't know that but it's not a surprise.
Most of these shows demonstrate the inner minds of their writers quite nicely. And just how warped, perverted, and envious they are.
Mad Men is another example. That is a window into the mind of one truly bent "Showrunner". Super-envious of the goyim, the hetero, etc. Wants to ridicule all of it and burn it all down.
My wife and I loved watching Mad Men simply because of the sets, with their mid-century decor and furnishings. We actually have the same argyle "bowling pin" lamp that is in Pete's office, as well as the cool red/orange round ashtray that was in the boss' office.
As much as we love all that, we still couldn't stomach Don Draper's cheating, misogynistic ways. He had a beautiful wife and children at home, but couldn't keep it in his pants while he was in the city. Hell, none of the men in that show could keep it in their pants.
It's a form of envy, I think. An application of Critical Theory. To tear down all of the white men in the show and make them venal and unheroic.
