That's a lot of fat people.

Here's a thought. If you're ashamed, don't watch it, or better yet, lose some weight.

Dang, thought the Marilyn Chambers classic was on Netflix.

In my experience Chambers was a tease! I used to watch her stuff as a kid hoping for some action, but was always left with nothing but soft core trash.

Um...what were you watching, her Ivory soap commercial?

Ding ding ding.

I read up on this "controversy" earlier today. This is how hard we are falling as a society. You have a fat girl. She is bullied. She is harassed. Her life sucks. So she takes action and sheds the weight and re-enters the world of Americana High School life as a hottie.

In my world, the reactions should "F yeah you go girl, nice job". Instead we get 100k+ snowflake whiners baggin Netflix. Stupid. Pathetic.

My wife and I are workout/health partners. It's not easy. We plan out meals for the week. We calorie/carb/fat count our food. Plan out workouts and calorie burns. We push our kids to be fit (which is easy because they love sports/outdoors). I commend everyone that makes the effort to be fit and healthy and have no time for the lazy ass whiners. Getting in shape and staying in shape takes work and discipline. This should be applauded not mocked or shamed.

So you have 100k people signing a petition to ban a show that is not even out yet, and it seems they don't even know what it is about.

Even on here, it seems people think it's about someone that decides to get into shape. The bullied fat girl gets assaulted and punched in the mouth. Jaw is wired shut, and she loses weight due to that.

"Yeah I called you fat, look at me I'm skinny"

I do think there is some overreaction going on with this show, but I find much of your post objectionable.

Being healthy is great, but there is a point here getting lost that the only way to be 'popular' or 'hot' is to be thin.

And the implication that if anyone is not fit or thin is lazy is pretty objectionable, also.

If that is how you or anyone else took my post, apologies, was not my intention. One of my brothers has struggled with weight his whole life and he is neither lazy or undisciplined, he just has terrible metabolism and other health issues.

That said, the vast majority of obese people in this country are obese because they are not willing to do what it takes to not be obese. I will make no apologies for that comment because it is true.

Bet they had their reviews written before they even saw it. I'm going to watch it just to be contrarian.

Is there a character in the show named Ravi that has a lizard named Kipling?

I've seen enough.
