[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read this once about Tina Fey's comedy and now I can't unsee it -[b] there's an undercurrent of meaness to it. [/b] I loved 30 Rock, so maybe the writer's room helped create a great product. On the other hand, as a genX myself, maybe now we worry too much about being nice. Maybe everything doesn't always work out. Maybe the world can be m ean. I grew up with movies like pretty in Pink and 16 candles and characters were perhaps more realistic (sort of). There was and is bullying. People are mean. [/quote] There’s an episode of 30 Rock where she goes back to her high school reunion and everyone she thought was really mean was actually nice and she was the mean one. There’s some good self-awareness there. I think it’s complicated for women (or maybe men, too) who felt like outsiders in adolescence/teen years. You develop defense mechanisms that can be as off-putting as the behavior that made them feel necessary in the first place.[/quote]
