but the Red Green Show rocks.
"(Plus, as a colleague once remarked: "No one every says, 'The Tony Danza Show: is it good for men?'")"
"Every" should be "ever."
And lots of college guys having sex with middle aged women? Willingly? I recall most college guys thinking sex with women in their late 20s and early 30s a good way to go because they were considered easy targets, but women in their 40s or more? Only if they'd had enough cosmetic surgery to look like Demi Moore. And I think that applies to slightly less than one-billionth of one percent of all middle aged women in America.
As preposterous as the premise is, I don't see a problem with it. Women deserve their fantasies, too. It's not like the media is ignoring male fantasies, after all.
Now you know how I felt when I first saw "The Man Show." Damn... I feel bad for you guys.
Oh lordy, don't I wish college was full of drunken, horny, middle aged women.
...Seriously!

I think the larger question is, why should a TV Network especially for women even exist? If the answer is: "Because women need another voice to advocate for them politically," then perhaps the folks at Lifetime and Oxygen could throw their weight behind existing feminist and political groups, rather than helping conservatives divide and conquer. If the answer is: "Because otherwise nobody will make TV that women like," then women's networks had better give us something a lot more appealing than "Campus Girls" (which sounds like "Old School" in drag). If "women's issues" are going to be ghettoized on TV, then it better be a darn good ghetto.
