I am currently rewatching it. At 20 years since it came on it is amazing to see how old some of the stuff in it looks already. The President is a fink. |

Watching the clip made me realize I didn't like the majority of characters, they just weren't likable people. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The characters are in the mafia. Bad people. You are not supposed to like them. The President is a fink. |

But the hostility was not based on "age, race, disability or religion) |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | No, it was based on hostility, and it shouldn't be a job requirement to endure being harassed by a protected person. Especially if the protege is an offspring of the owner/boss. We do our work, they pay us, that's the deal. You can be fired for not doing your work, or even because the boss doesn't like you, or a hundred other reasons, but it isn't fair that an employee has to allow himself to be belittled to get his/her pay. That's the description of a hostile work environment. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

But they were portrayed sympathetically, that's why it was on 7 seasons. Some of the characters I couldn't stand, like what's his name in the clip you posted. And he's in it all the time. MadMen, only seen that once. Deadwood, many times. Californication entire run 4 times. Downton Abby, I'm watching it now for 13th time. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

They are portrayed as showing they had their own problems and demons to face, but it was also shown they sere selfish, greedy, and dangerous people. Mad Men I loved. Californication I got about three episodes in and all I could handle. Deadwood didn't realize until recently the dead brother's wife was Walter White's wife. The President is a fink. |
