As it progressed, it became more oriented to women and women as power brokers, successful manipulators, etc..


I hate shows that make women look
like men. Real life is not like that. A
woman who acts like a hardass man
is usually disliked by both men and
women. Women have to be far nicer
and more diplomatic than men in
business. We still have a very sexist
culture and men will resent a woman
who makes them look bad and hold
a grudge and be vindictive. A woman
doesn't get far surrounded by enemies.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

It's not sexism, it is nature. Women and men have different strengths, weaknesses, drives, and abilities. Look at how then behave in groups. The alpha male is happy to have other guys around. The queen bee will try to destroy other women around her to keep her status. Men are far more direct than women. Women are more risk-adverse than men, except when it comes to having kids. There men want to wait, women more likely accept it when it happens.

I think a huge part of why women who act like men are disliked is because nobody likes someone always trying to prove something.

I hadn't heard that about Tim Allen's Show.

Fox has 9 comedies. Three animated ones are already renewed, and one live action ones is doing decently well.
Of the other five all are doing poorly, and the lowest is already scheduled to end

3 The Simpsons (renewed)
6 Ghosted
7 Family Guy (renewed
10 Bob's Burgers (renewed)

14 The Last Man on Earth (cancelled)
16 Brooklyn Nine-Nine (renewed by NBC)
17 LA to Vegas (cancelled)
18 The Mick (cancelled)
19 New Girl (ended)

I was under the impression that Fox had seven potential comedies available for next year
