Mad Men is my all-time favorite show, but this guy has always had a reputation as a bit of an assh*le. He has a wife and three kids, but also gives off a somewhat feminine vibe, so if anything I thought he was a closet homosexual. But I guess not. In other words, I'm a bit surprised, but not really.

Ha, great catch. Even his kids are weird, as evident of Weiner casting his oldest as Glen, the weirdest kid ever. I was once in a movie theater with Weiner and his three sons and his youngest had on a tux. In the middle of summer on a Saturday afternoon. I later read that the kid just loves to dress up, so they let him wear suits and tux's all the time. To each his own, and I don't mean to make fun of a little kid (even though this was years ago), but something is definitely a little off about Weiner and his family.

This one isnt surprising

What happens if something comes out about a producer on TWD? Or Dick Wolf or Chuck Lourie?

How frustrating is this all for you?

I mean, there was a clip of Barbara Walters on The View kind of chiding Feldman saying "You're damaging an entire industry!" and I've got to think that all the honest people in industry must be particularly angry because of the lasting damage, resentment and suspicion they will be faced with going forward.

It's not a great analogy, but college baseball has a bad reputation for ruining young pitcher's arms so when any coach overpitches a kid, I get super mad because they are confirming all the bad things everyone thought. They aren't just hurting that one kid, they are hurting the sport itself.

I don't see it as damaging the industry at all. I mean, it is, obviously, but I see it as more of a cleansing, which is what this town needs more than anything. I absolutely love that these assh*les are finally getting their comeuppance. It's so incredibly satisfying. I hate that it had to be at the expense of all these women (and men) and their terrible experiences, but Hollywood - and hopefully humanity in general - will be better for having gone through this whole ordeal in the end. I feel like there's now a level of awareness and solidarity like never before. This really is a massive cultural sea change. Besides, the negative opinions so many people already had of Hollywood couldn't have gotten much worse.

I totally agree with this. I hate that any woman or man was treated these ways, but I feel like we're finally saying as a whole big group that these actions are not okay and will no longer be tolerated.

As much as I talk about the Hollywood bubble or subculture, it's important that individuals are held accountable and we don't just write this off as some sort of collective guilt, which is an easy trap to fall into.

Unfortunately, Whedon wouldn't surprise me.
I doubt he's done anything heinous like the trapping and whatnot that harvey did, but based on stuff between him and his ex-wife....
TCTTS

Yeah, I was about to say. Whedon's no angel, that's for sure.

Joss Whedon would be the least surprising person in all of Hollywood

He's probably a furry

Didn't Whedon have some scandal recently?

Steve Carrell or Will Ferrell would shock me

He got SUPER pissed at Charisma Carpenter when she got pregnant without letting him know or his permission or something. That's why there was a super wierd/creepy arc in Angel.

He kinda admitted to being seduced by the power at least.

Quote:

Cole says he wrote to her that while he was running Buffy, he said: "I was surrounded by beautiful, needy, aggressive young women. It felt like I had a disease, like something from a Greek myth. Suddenly I am a powerful producer and the world is laid out at my feet and I can't touch it."

"But he did touch it," writes his ex-wife. "He said he understood, 'I would have to lie or conceal some part of the truth for the rest of my life,' but he did it anyway, hoping that first affair, 'would be ENOUGH, that THEN we could move on and outlast it.'"

Note, this is all from an ex wife, so I suppose you can take it with a grain of salt.

Morgan Freeman would be shocking right?
M, Night Shamamamalyan has always seemed very nice and kind in interviews, so that would be wierd.
Jake Gyllenhaal would be shocking to me.
Mark Wahlberg would shock me. He's not an angel, but like..I dunno. He seems the type that would be the ish out of a guy for looking at a girl wrong.

Freeman was actually subject to some kind of accusation around the time of The Dark Knight. Had to do with his daughter or step daughter or something. It wasn't sexual assault, but it was definitely questionable or inappropriate. Will look it up in a bit.

I see this. Especially as a dad of boys. I see him being super strict about how you treat a woman.

Dating a 17 year old is one thing. Whipping out Wingus and the Ping Pong Boys in front of a random is another ball of wax. Just saying.

Wow, that is beyond tragic. There have to be psych issues at play.
