For me television is designed to drive consumer behaviour. You may even say the shows are designed to supplement the constant barrage of advertising. Women and mothers are the primary target for this media brain washing. Remember the long infomercials in the mornings after 8am. Anyway there is clearly a shortage of of television programming for men – I mean besides the constant barrage of sports shows.
Here’s my comments on shows aimed at men from a top 10 list.
1. HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER – The guys in this show are not alpha males. Jason Segel as Marshall Eriksen always comes across as wimp in every
movie he has been in from Forgetting Sarah Marshall to Gullivers’ Travels. The supposed player in the show Neil Patrick Harris as Barney
Stinson is gay in real life. So this is complete rubbish.
2. WEEDS – this is almost there with bigger focus sex. I found the characters to some extent superficial and lacking depth. Nancy’s first husband, the DEA agent allows her to walk all over him. Nancy’s brother in law reminds of Tao of Steve’s attitude. He has big success with women but I could not figure out how, except for a strong level of disinterest in conforming; hence woman see him as a bad boy or something along the lines of a non-conformist. The drug lord that she marries later on shows some initial alpha male attitude and later starts to give her more and more status, thus lowering his own status and control of the relationship.
3. THE OFFICE (AMERICAN) – this is one funny show and Michael Scott is the worst and best boss anyone could have. However, he is also the worst example of being a complete wussy. Jim’s character has interesting qualities in his attitude towards breaking the rules, fun and humour, pranks and being relentless in pursuit of Pam. Not fully of lessons for alpha males, however full of cocky funny tips.
4. NIP/TUCK – a series that’s on my list of downloaded-series to watch because it has a strong sexual focus, and also pokes fun at the Hollywood ideal with plastic surgery. The two male leads are different yet exhibit very strong alpha male status. There seems to be a bro’s before ho’s attitude between them, which is a approach all guys on this forum should adopt. Highly recommended in the direct nature of the sexual liaisons – the ultimate social proof of being the Doctor i.e. giving them the authority (read power) over the (helpless) female clients.
5. TWO AND A HALF MEN – this is probably the best balances show between what to do, Charlie, and what never to do, his brother. The kid is almost irrelevant in the equation. He is even fat when he is grown up and nothing of value can be learned from him. Charlie is the main focus because he doesn’t care, he just moves on, and sees women as objects especially in the earlier seasons. The principles that makes him uber successful is the two rules from David X (1. Who cares what she thinks; 2. The most important person in the relation is YOU!).
6. CALIFORNICATION – Duchovny is a total bad boy. He keeps breaking the rules. He does not care what society thinks about him. Yet he is deeply passionate when is with a woman like she’s the only one in the world. How he balances the many sexual escapades with a deep loving and caring relationship with his wife is amazing and I’ve not complete figured out how he does that – maybe it’s the sex that keeps her coming back. A worthy male role model if ever there was one on pussified television.
7. ENTOURAGE – this is one I enjoyed from season 1-7. The only thing is the main characters gets most of his pussy because he is a pretty boy AND he is a famous actor. So the question remains can he get the same hot pussy if he WAS NOT a hot actor in Hollywood? Maybe, because it’s clear from his friendship with his manager, he was a big hit with girls in school. So I ask you was Colin Farrel, Jude Law or Brad Pitt alpha males or super successful with hot women before they made it big? I wonder.
I have not watched Rescue Me, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Sons of Anarchy.
