Is this brilliant, or deeply, deeply wrong.
n.b. according to the Sun Gary Coleman is a virgin, and 40 is this episode the reason?
Is this how sitcoms should handle sensitive things
I managed about a minute. Summary please?
Ach, Willis and his chum get introduced to the love that dare not speak it's name by Mr Horton.
That was... er... worrying.
I had to do a Google search to double-check that wasn't a spoof, but no, they really did take the plot there. Brave people. Bit unconfortable hearing people laugh at those lines. Not sure comedy is the best medium through which to educate kids about this sort of thing.
Eek. I got scared and had to turn it off.
I'll just take your word for it.
Whatchu Talkin' About?
Whatchu porkin' about
Mmm, that was just plain wrong. An issue not sensitively dealt with but dressed up as a vehicle for comedy - not ironically, just straight-up "oh, paedophiles are funny." Left a very sour taste.
Is this how sitcoms should handle sensitive things? It's not even an example of how a sitcom should handle comedy.
It was atrocious.
As an aside didn't the midget appear in the Simpsons during one Christmas special?
What as? An elf?

"Whatcha' talking about... EVERYONE"
There were more laughs in that short clip that you get in a whole series of some of today’s so called sitcoms.
He has a name, he's called Gary Coleman, and his parents stole all his money because they thought he would die of kidney failure before he was 20.
He's a 40 year old midget, so broke he's working as a shop security guard. He's so depserate he was selling his underpants on the internet.
And yes he was in a Simpson's Xmas special playing himself, probably for underpants.
Poor little guy. He cant even cry, incase people think he's a lost child and take him to the police.
I thought that everyone knew that. :-/
