I never saw that whole episode...I just snuck a peek.

It's simply unacceptable, and there's no excuse.

It's like people who watch Mad Men and think Don is a cool character to emulate or Sopranos idiots who like Tony.

Ummm... soooo many people think this.

I don't believe they were normalizing naziism in that movie.

You are wrong.

It’s funny you mention this. Every time I see this episode, I wonder how it wasn’t considered completely inappropriate.

Sorry, I was not able to tune in today to read responses.

Thanks.

Jeff said trolls overran it. I asked if I could repost because of the timeliness of the topic and how important it is with everything that's happening.

Wow. That's too bad. Thank you for your effort to continue the conversation.

I have to say that I was taken aback by the responses defending the behavior. Even if we're fans of the show, I would think we'd be able to objectively identify inappropriate behavior by adults. In my world, the behavior was indisputably wrong on so many levels. But, as I said last night, over the past year or so I have accepted that I am likely living in a parallel universe from many, many people.

Just fyi, I'd encourage folks to actually view the episode that I identified. The fact is that Jerry and George were told that she was 15 BEFORE she actually appeared on the episode. I think that's relevant.

There is already a huge thread on this.

And thanks for bringing it to attention. What an important topic.

What’s also shocking is that this made it to TV at all and was not considered a big deal. Made it past all the writers, execs, and onto televisions without making a ripple.

The 90s was a different time.
